[atlas] 500 Probe limit

Hi Marco

If you look at the bottom of https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/udm/#rate-limits
you can see the email link to contact the RIPE Atlas team to propose your
test and they can (and will) unlock to allow for testing like you seem to
be talking about. I was approved to use this for a full network test of
Google DNS Anycasting (I was specifically looking to find the prevalence of
ISP's imposing their own DNS servers as the Google 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4).

I am fairly sure I have those test results public so if that is useful to
you then feel free to collect and use the data. If you can't find it let me
know and I will check the references for you of the tests.


Regards
Alexander
