- Topher is back, Bebo is contacting him. Bebo's thoughts were that:PingER will need a fixed name for each Android MA. Since the Android may be mobile the IP address may be dynamic. There is a DNS name to dynamic IP address service that may be useful. Maybe there is another unique fixed identifier in an Android that could be used such as a serial number or SIM ID.
- If the Amity app is robust (i.e. it does not noticeably impact the other services, power, networking, security etc) make it part of the standard Rainforest installation;
- Topher's package knows the GPS location, so it should be available to PingER for recording.
- Access to the Measurement Agent (MA) pingeramity.in appears to be very unstable. I notice this by looking at https://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/monitoring/checkdata/Apr.html and seeing how often we were unable to gather any data.For more detail, I looked at the data for pinging pingeramity.in from SLAC from March 19 2019 to May 3, 2019 using http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/ping_data_plot.pl?monitor=pinger.slac.stanford.edu&sites=pingeramity.in&begin_day=5&begin_month=3&begin_year=2019&end_day=4&end_month=5&end_year=2019&data. See the attached spreadsheet, in particular, the %loss. The %loss shows multiple periods where the loss is 100%.Just to check I looked at http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/ping_data_plot.pl?monitor=pinger.slac.stanford.edu&sites=www.mitpune.com&begin_day=5&begin_month=3&begin_year=2019&end_day=4&end_month=5&end_year=2019&data where there are no losses.
