The \fBa\fP\fI*\fP commands are convenience aliases: .RS 4 .TP 12 \fBadig\fP is an alias for \fBripe-atlas measure dns\fP .TP \fBahttp\fP is an alias for \fBripe-atlas measure http\fP .TP \fBantp\fP is an alias for \fBripe-atlas measure ntp\fP .TP \fBaping\fP is an alias for \fBripe-atlas measure ping\fP .TP \fBasslcert\fP is an alias for \fBripe-atlas measure sslcert\fP .TP \fBatraceroute\fP is an alias for \fBripe-atlas measure traceroute\fP .RE .SH COMMANDS \fBripe-atlas\fP accepts the following commands: .RS 4 .TP 4 \fBmeasure\fP \fIdns\fP|\fIhttp\fP|\fIntp\fP|\fIping\fP|\fIsslcert\fP|\fItraceroute\fP [\fIoptions\fP] Create a new measurement of a specified type. .TP \fBmeasurement-search\fP [\fIoptions\fP] Fetch and print measurements fulfilling specified criteria. .TP \fBmeasurement-info\fP \fIid\fP Return the metadata for a single measurement. .TP \fBconfigure\fP [\fIoptions\fP] Configure the ripe-atlas tool. .TP \fBprobe-search\fP [\fIoptions\fP] Fetch and print probes fulfilling specified criteria. .TP \fBprobe-info\fP \fIid\fP Return the metadata for a single Atlas probe. .TP \fBgo\fP \fImeasurement_id\fP Open a measurement's web page in a browser. .TP \fBreport\fP \fImeasurement_id\fP [\fIoptions\fP] Report the results of a measurement. .TP \fBstream\fP \fImeasurement_id\fP [\fIoptions\fP] Report the results of a measurement in real time using a stream. .RE To see the available options for each command, use: .IP "" 4 \fBripe-atlas\fP \fIcommand\fP \fB--help\fP .SH SEE ALSO The full documentation of the RIPE Atlas tools is provided in HTML form in the \fBripe-atlas-tools-doc\fP Debian package. .SH NOTES .BR 1.
