-This objective of this project is to develop and deploy GENI enabled Software Defined Exchanges (SDXs).  This includes developing an operational SDX Aggregate Manager (AM) that can be deployed at existing and new exchange points.  This activity includes deployment of a GRAM based MAX Aggregate Manager (GRAM/MAX-AM) on the Washington International Exchange (WIX).  The larger vision for the GENI Enabled SDX is one that includes integrated network, storage, and compute resources.  
+This objective of this project was to develop and deploy GENI enabled Software Defined Exchanges (SDXs).  A key objective was to transition existing Research and Education Exchange Points into facilities where providers can attach services in order to make them available for wider use thru dynamic provisioning.  The GENI infrastructure and Aggregate Manager (AM) capabilities were leveraged for this work.  Extending this technology to Science DMZs allowed for similar capabilities to be added to the regional network and the campus enterprise edge.

GENI technologies are leveraged in the form of the MAX Aggregate Manager which utilizes the GENI Rack Aggregate Manager (GRAM) software for GENI Federation functions. This MAX/GRAM AM utilizes the Open Grid Forum (OGF) NSI protocol to provision services across the network elements within the Washington International Exchange (WIX) located in !McLean, Virginia and the MAX Regional Network.

+Another instance of the MAX Aggregate Manager is also deployed covering the MAX Software Define Science DMZ (SD-SDMZ).  The MAX SD-SDMZ also includes local compute and storage resources. The MAX InstaGENI Rack is also directly connected to the MAX SD-SDMZ.  A diagram of the topology for the MAX Science DMZ and WIX based SDX is shown below.
