    v62 v63  
    131131Layer 3 Connectivity:  IP access will be through UMass Amherst's campus network, using their public IP addresses.
    132132
    133 Layer 2 Connectivity:  An MOU was agreed upon with the UMass Office of Information Technology
    134 (OIT) regarding connecting Internet2 to the DOME and ViSE servers, along with
    135 VLAN access;  see [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/DOME/mou.pdf ]. There is currently no usable layer2 connection to the UMass Amherst lab available for GENI.  The project is investigating the possibility of installing local fiber that could enable a connection to NLR through an appropriate regional network.  If installed this fiber would support both the [wiki:DOME] and [wiki:ViSE] projects in Spiral 1 and in later stages that include support for mobile nodes.  Layer 2 ethernets will not extend to the !DieselNet nodes, due to limitations in the existing deployed systems, but IP tunnels to the layer 2 VLAN termination points should be feasible for connecting mobile endpoints to the GENI virtual ethernets.
     133Layer 2 Connectivity:  An [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/DOME/mou.pdf MOU] was agreed upon with the UMass Office of Information Technology (OIT) regarding connecting Internet2 to the DOME and ViSE servers, along with
     134VLAN access.  The OIT contact is Rick Tuthill.  The agreements include:
     1351)  CS shall order OIT-provisioned network jacks in appropriate locations in the Computer Science building using normal OIT processes.  (completed)
     1362)  OIT shall configure these jacks into a single VLAN that shall be extended over existing OIT-managed network infrastructure between the Computer Science building and the Northern Crossroads (NoX) Internet2 Gigapop located at 300 Bent St in Cambridge, MA.
     1373)  OIT agrees to provide a single VLAN for “proof-of-concept” testing and initial GENI research activities. 
     1384)  The interconnection of the provided VLAN between the NoX termination point and other Internet2 locations remains strictly the province of the CS researchers and the GENI organization.
     1395)  This service shall be provided by OIT at no charge to CS for the term of one year in the interest of OIT learning more about effectively supporting network-related research efforts on campus.
