    99==== Description ====
    10 !NetServ is a framework for deploying in-network services in the next
    11 generation Internet. The combination of !NetServ and ProtoGENI provides a
    12 straightforward and powerful way for GENI experimenters to insert novel
    13 capabilities deep into the network. In this tutorial, you will learn
    14 about the !NetServ architecture, how to incorporate !NetServ in your
    15 experiment, and how to implement and deploy simple !NetServ modules.
     10 !NetServ is a programmable router architecture, designed for
     11 dynamically deploying in-network services.  Using !NetServ, GENI
     12 experimenters can write TCP/IP and packet processing application
     13 modules quickly in Java, and dynamically install them into any
     14 !NetServ-enabled ProtoGENI or !PlanetLab nodes.  In this hands-on
     15 tutorial, you will learn the !NetServ architecture, and develop a
     16 simple !NetServ application module.

     18==== Prerequisites: ====
     19 '''Required:'''
     20   - Basic understanding of GENI concepts (covered in the
     21     Introduction to GENI talk)
     22   - Java programming experience
     23
     24 '''Helpful, but not required:'''
     25   - Experience working with ProtoGENI (covered in an earlier
     26     tutorial: Introduction to GENI using Flack by Rob Ricci)
     27
     28
     29==== Please arrive with: ====
     30
     31 A laptop with !VirtualBox (http://www.virtualbox.org/) installed.
     32 If you are unable to bring one, you may partner with someone else.

     38     None.
     39
     40 '''Suggested background materials if you have time:'''
     41      - 14-minute video of !NetServ demo at GEC9 plenary session:

     45
     46
     47==== Results: ====
     48 After completing this tutorial, you will:
     49   - Understand !NetServ architecture--for example, how various
     50     technologies such as Netfilter, JNI and OSGi work together to
     51     enable packet processing in Java.
     52   - See how !NetServ can shorten the development cycle of your
     53     experiments, and how it can create a gentler educational
     54     environment for your networking classroom.
     55   - Know how to write a !NetServ application module.
