+b)  Pre-configured VLANs on GENI “wave”, between certain Internet2 Wave System nodes.    See http://www.internet2.edu/waveco/
+
+This is the approach being used by ProtoGENI backbone nodes;  see http://www.protogeni.net/trac/protogeni/wiki/BackboneNode

+
+c)  Direct connections to the Internet2 Wave System nodes.  
+
+This is the approach being used by ProtoGENI backbone nodes;  see http://www.protogeni.net/trac/protogeni/wiki/BackboneNode 
+
+More details on this can be found at http://groups.geni.net/syseng/wiki/ConnectivityProto .  It states that the  ProtoGENI switches (shown below in the IP table) are each attached to the GENI L2 wave but also to I2's Layer 3 network at 1Gb/s.
+
+d)  Tunnel to Internet2 Wave System nodes.  
+
+From http://groups.geni.net/syseng/wiki/ConnectivityProto :  Those aggregates that cannot get on the wave but are attached to I2 might be able to configure static IP tunnels (such as Ethernet over GRE) to one of the ProtoGENI switches attached to I2's Layer 3 services.
+
+e)  Switched VLANs using Internet2 DCN service.
+
+The Internet2 DCN service provides switched VLANs, but there are two issues that suggest that it will not be utilized for GENI traffic.   
+
+First, its use has not been included in the package of services donated to GENI, and thus there may be a cost to the GENI aggregate now, or in the future.
+
+Second, it is available in only a limited number of Internet2 PoPs, and these may be difficult to reach.
+
+Currently, ORCA plans to provide an interface into the Internet2 IDC by 2/1/10.

+Setup using Sherpa service.  
+
+BEN has used Sherpa to pre-configure VLANs;  see http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/ORCABEN/071509c%20%20ORCA_BEN%20demo.pdf , Figure 6-4.

+ORCA plans to provide an interface into the Sherpa GCI by 2/1/10.

+c)  VLANs via C-Wave service?
