Issues Detected:
-
Guard: requires Stable flag
: Guard flag requires having the Stable flag first
Suggestion: Get Stable flag by maintaining consistent uptime. Stable requires uptime and MTBF at or above network median (typically 2-3 weeks of stable running). -
Not eligible for Stable flag
: 2/9 authorities meet Stable (uptime or MTBF at or above their own median; 5 needed). bastet, dannenberg, dizum, faravahar, gabelmoo, maatuska and tor26 do not.
Suggestion: Stable flag requires uptime/MTBF at or above network median. Keep your relay running continuously for 2-3 weeks. Avoid restarts. Use reliable hardware and network connection. -
HSDir: requires Stable flag
: HSDir flag requires having the Stable flag first
Suggestion: Get Stable flag by maintaining consistent uptime. Stable requires uptime and MTBF at or above network median (typically 2-3 weeks of stable running). Avoid restarts. -
High consensus weight deviation
: Large variation in Consensus Weight values across authorities (see 'Cons Wt' column in Per-Authority Details below)
Suggestion: Consensus weight measurements vary significantly between authorities. This can affect traffic distribution. Ensure stable network connection and consistent bandwidth availability. -
Tor version not recommended
: Running Tor version 0.4.9.14 which is not on the recommended list.
Suggestion: Update to the latest stable Tor version. Outdated versions may have security vulnerabilities and could eventually be rejected by the network. See torproject.org/download for latest releases.

About these reports and MetricsPort
Allium’s eligibility windows are applied to the reported timestamps: 72 hours for general overload and file-descriptor exhaustion, 24 hours for a rate-limit hit. A report at the cutoff is historical. An older report can remain visible after Onionoo or Allium’s cache still has it. The cutoff does not prove the relay recovered at that moment. Allium caches the bandwidth document for 12 hours by default. The snapshot time is when Onionoo published that document. It is not the relay’s event time, and it is not necessarily the extra-info publication time. Cache age is how old Allium’s copy is.
MetricsPort counters are cumulative. Compare samples, and account for process restarts. A nonzero total alone does not show ongoing activity. Gauges describe current values. An unavailable metric is unknown, not zero. Allium does not have this relay’s MetricsPort readings and does not invent them.
The port below is an example for an endpoint you have already configured. MetricsPort must be enabled with restricted access and must not be exposed publicly. Setup stays in the Tor overload troubleshooting guide.

N/T = this authority does not test IPv6 • — = not in this vote • Format: relay value | authority threshold • WFU = Weighted Fractional Uptime • TK = Time Known • Bandwidth source: (M) bandwidth-scanner measurement, (R) relay-reported, (U) unmeasured, counted as 0
Bandwidth Values Explained:
Measured (M) = An authority's bandwidth-scanner measurement of your relay (
Relay-reported (R) = The bandwidth your relay advertises: the lower of its observed bandwidth and its rate limit, capped at 10 MB/s (
Not published = The authority has no measurement of your relay in its vote and ignores relay-reported bandwidth, yet it voted Fast or its vote has no measurements at all: it judges your relay by a measurement kept from an earlier bandwidth file (0 if none), which its vote doesn't show.
Why different? A low measurement means the bandwidth scanners see your relay underperforming compared with other relays that report a similar speed. Votes list both values in kilobytes per second. Rules: Assigning flags in a vote, Computing a consensus.
Measured (M) = An authority's bandwidth-scanner measurement of your relay (
Measured= in its vote). An authority that has one uses it for the Fast and Guard flags, and the consensus weight is the median of these measurements when 3 or more authorities have one.Relay-reported (R) = The bandwidth your relay advertises: the lower of its observed bandwidth and its rate limit, capped at 10 MB/s (
Bandwidth= in every vote). An authority without a measurement uses it for flags, unless it has measurements for enough other relays (ignoring-advertised-bws=1); then your relay counts as 0 (U). It sets the consensus weight only when fewer than 3 authorities measured the relay, capped at 20 KB/s (maxunmeasuredbw) while 3 or more authorities publish measurements.Not published = The authority has no measurement of your relay in its vote and ignores relay-reported bandwidth, yet it voted Fast or its vote has no measurements at all: it judges your relay by a measurement kept from an earlier bandwidth file (0 if none), which its vote doesn't show.
Why different? A low measurement means the bandwidth scanners see your relay underperforming compared with other relays that report a similar speed. Votes list both values in kilobytes per second. Rules: Assigning flags in a vote, Computing a consensus.
Stable Uptime (Two Data Sources):
Relay Uptime = From Onionoo API (last_restarted field). Self-reported uptime from descriptor. Same value for all authorities.
Authority Threshold = From CollecTor vote files (flag-thresholds stable-uptime). Each authority may have different thresholds.
Why two sources? Vote files contain authority thresholds but not per-relay uptime values. Onionoo aggregates relay descriptors which include uptime.
