There is no need to retire the previous identity when you move. Just plug in the probe at the new location and make sure to update the probe location at: https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/14102/ <https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/14102/>

If however you really want to start over as if it’s a new probe, we could accommodate that. Usually this is not needed but it can be a good idea if you switch internet providers or change countries. If that is the case, let us know and we’ll make it happen.

Kind regards,
Johan
