الشيفرة المصدرية الموقع التوثيق

ماذا يمكنك أن تفعل مع RIPE Atlas؟

  • All 6 measurement types: ping, traceroute, DNS, TLS/SSL, HTTP, NTP
  • Flexible probe selection: by country, ASN, prefix, geographic area, specific probes, or tags
  • Rich result retrieval: time-range filtering, probe filtering, latest-only mode
  • Dual output format: JSON (structured) and Markdown (human-readable)
  • Probe discovery: search 12,000+ probes worldwide by location, network, status
  • Credit management: check balance and usage statistics

RIPE Atlas MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the RIPE Atlas network measurement platform. Enables AI assistants to create network measurements, retrieve results, search probes, and manage credits.

Features

  • All 6 measurement types: ping, traceroute, DNS, TLS/SSL, HTTP, NTP
  • Flexible probe selection: by country, ASN, prefix, geographic area, specific probes, or tags
  • Rich result retrieval: time-range filtering, probe filtering, latest-only mode
  • Dual output format: JSON (structured) and Markdown (human-readable)
  • Probe discovery: search 12,000+ probes worldwide by location, network, status
  • Credit management: check balance and usage statistics

Quick Start

npx ripe-atlas-mcp-server
Install globally
npm install -g ripe-atlas-mcp-server

Configuration

Prerequisites
  1. Create a free account at atlas.ripe.net
  2. Create an API key at atlas.ripe.net/keys/ with "Create measurements" permission
  3. Set the environment variable: export RIPE_ATLAS_API_KEY=your_key_here

Note: Read-only operations (listing measurements, searching probes) work without an API key. Creating measurements requires an API key.

Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ripe-atlas": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "ripe-atlas-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "RIPE_ATLAS_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
VS Code / GitHub Copilot

Add to your VS Code settings or .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ripe-atlas": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "ripe-atlas-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "RIPE_ATLAS_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
Cursor

Add to your Cursor MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ripe-atlas": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "ripe-atlas-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "RIPE_ATLAS_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

"Do a DNS lookup for example.com AAAA records from 50 probes across the world"

Find probes in a country:

"Show me all connected RIPE Atlas probes in Australia"

Trace a route:

"Run a traceroute to 8.8.8.8 from 5 probes in Germany using ICMP"

What is RIPE Atlas?

RIPE Atlas is a global Internet measurement network operated by RIPE NCC. It consists of thousands of hardware and software probes hosted by volunteers worldwide. Users can run network measurements (ping, traceroute, DNS, TLS, HTTP, NTP) from these distributed vantage points, providing visibility into Internet routing, performance, and DNS resolution globally.

Development

git clone https://github.com/jrelph/ripe-atlas-mcp.git
cd ripe-atlas-mcp-server
npm install
npm run build
