Re: [tor-relays] Advertised Bandwidth vs. RelayBandwidthRate

So, could it be that there is just a wording issue on tor-metrics - to me "observed" and "advertised" bandwidth are two different things but they seem to be the same on tor-metrics. I think I do understand the observed bw, however, still struggle to understand the advertised bw. ‐‐‐ Origina

Could it be the VPS company has changed its tolerance of exits and is stopping it?  ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

[tor-relays] Update on the status for sbws (simple bandwidth scanner)

Hello everyone! Some of you might have read about relay operators being affected by a drop of bandwidth on their relays recently or might even have hit this problem themselves. Bug 33775[1] has more details about what is going on (in short: sbws, our new bandwidth scanner, has still release criti

I can add some information I forgot before. In "nyx" it showed my that the Relay had no flags, now after another reboot it show at least "Exit, Fast, Running, V2Dir, Valid" again, I think the other flags were lost due to the relay being kind of offline. Currently nyx shows about 4 MB/sec, not very

[tor-relays] Advertised Bandwidth vs. RelayBandwidthRate

Hello all - I see a constant mismatch of my relay regarding the Advertised Bandwidth vs. the defined and available RelayBandwidthRate. Tor metrics usually only shows around 1.3 MiB/s as Advertised Bandwidth (Bandwidth rate: 3 MiB/s, Bandwidth burst: 6 MiB/s). The torrc config defines: RelayBand
