Hello, I would like to suggest a naming convention for probes that excludes names referring to features or networks which are not present/supported. For example, I see a probe that contains in its name a large network, although the probe is actually connected to competitor networks. (I assume the probe's host changed their ISP and forgot to update the probe's name.) Such naming is misleading for Atlas users, but also opens a can of worms in relation to trade mark law. Similarly, a prove with "IPv6" in its name that doesn't support IPv6 could be confusing. BR Daniel AJ
