# Atlas probe setup instruction | |
The atlas probe software requires a rsa 2048-4096 key for registration. | |
Follow these steps to register your probe on the ripe-atlas systems. | |
1. Insert your username in the atlas config file (/etc/config/atlas) | |
2. Use the command '/etc/init.d/atlas create_key' to create a priv/pub key. | |
3. The priv/pub key will be stored on the directory /etc/atlas/ | |
4. Use the command '/etc/init.d/atlas get_key' to get the public key used for probe registration. | |
Make sure to copy the entire key and that the last value is the correct username | |
5. Follow the instruction from the past command or go to 'https://atlas.ripe.net/apply/swprobe/' | |
and register your probe. |
