So how is your connectivity with other networks at any point in time? RIPE Atlas provides thousands of vantage points around the Internet to look at your network and measure how well your customers are reachable from the rest of the Internet. You can set up both continuous monitoring and look at specific issues in real time. You can integrate the continuous external monitoring with your internal monitoring system. The very reasonable price is installing a few probes. If you are happy with what you get, install an anchor.
