- They will install the PingER traceroute server, the data gatherer (ping_data.pl) and the Measurement Agent (MA, pinger2.pl).
- Les updated the web page on requirements.
- In response to Email sent 1/26/2019 they say "We have just finished exams. We will be starting the setup and hopefully estimated to finish by the end of this week."
- 1/30/2019: there is a challenge that they do not have DNS service so we will have to use the IP address as the name.
- 2/3/2019: Another challenge is that we will need to use port 8771.
- The site is up and running 2/7/2019.
- http://212.118.12.186:8771/cgi-bin/ping_data.pl is working from SLAC. The data looks good.
- http://212.118.12.186:8771/cgi-bin/traceroute.pl?target=www.slac.stanford.edu&function=ping is also working
- I need to enter it It needs to be entered into the meta database, but we need and have requested some information
- The latitude and longitude (as decimal numbers) of the site. Within 100 metres is fine.
- A street address would be nice.
- The official name of the University/site.
- The web URL for the university/site. If the university site has a domain then the node name is probably www. If it does not have a domain name then invent one.
- Baraa provided the information 2/14/2019, and Les added it to the Oracle NODEDETAILS meta database.
- It would be a good idea to download and install the most recent version of pinger2.pl available at www.slac.stanford.edu/compo/net/mon/tool/pinger2.pl in case you need to monitor IPv6 nodes. Baraa agreed to do this.
- Baraa is interested in monitoring other Jordanian hosts. There are 4 other targets in Jordan. They are:
- http://www.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/dbprac.pl?alias=JO.NEXT.WWW&monalias=EDU.SLAC.STANFORD.PINGER
- If there are other sites in Jordan that should be monitored from say SLAC and Jordan please let Les know the details and he can add them to the PingER Oracle NODEDETAILS database, so they are monitored from SLAC. If they are to be monitored from Telephoenics then they will need to be added to the <HostList>stanza of the Telephoenics pinger.xml.
- Les invited the 3rd member of the Jordanian team (xsaifahmadx@gmail.com) to join the pinger-my Google group.
- Eyad has moved to Instanbul Turkey. After he hs settled down he will be looking to do a PhD in Turkey. He will look at installing a PingER MA there.
