Johari had no updates 2/4/2015, 3/4/2015. His top priorities are:
- Reviving the Raspbery Pi. Johari went to the computer center but could not figure out what was wrong with the raspberry Pi. It may be a firewall issue or he may need to replace the SD card.
- Getting the research Getting the research student going on anomalous behaviour detection methods. He is working on a Conference paper.
Johari still has to uncover the problem of the traceroute from UNIMAS. UDP has been unblocked. The MYREN host works fine and share most of the hops. Thus the problem must be in the first few hops.

pinger.uob.edu.pk appears to be partially working according to http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/monitoring/checkdata/, however it appears to be unreachable at regular intervals. Smada reports this is due to power outages:
The numl host is also very unreliable which could be power related. It also loses its DNS name which may be something else.

At the meeting Samad says he has 5 hosts that are not working. 3 are nearby so he can visit. 2 are far away and so more challenging. He will try and fix the 3 in the coming week.
Anjum proposed to Samad that he contact Dr Adnan Iqbal at the naml node in Bolochistan to get PingER installed there. After the meeting email was sent to Adnan who is happy to do this, but will need to get upper management approval.
