| 26 | A GENI WiMAX testbed includes a number of components (pictured below): |
| 27 | |
| 28 | * A '''console''' that runs a set of services that help you manage and execute your experiment |
| 29 | * A WiMAX '''base station''' |
| 30 | * A set of '''nodes''', which may include laptop computers, Android phones, or special PCs colloquially referred to as "yellow boxes." |

| 34 | You can read more about the specific resource at each testbed at the following links: |

| 36 | * [http://www.orbit-lab.org/status/orbit/ WINLAB testbed] |

| 38 | NB: The WINLAB facility includes multiple testbeds. WiMAX nodes are available on the following testbeds: |
| 39 | * grid (make a reservation for '''grid''' and '''wimax''') |
| 40 | * outdoor (make a reservation for '''outdoor''' and '''wimax''') |
| 41 | * sb6 (make a reservation for '''sb6''' and '''wimax''') |
| 42 | * sb7 (make a reservation for '''sb7''' and '''wimax''') |
| 43 | * sb8 (make a reservation for '''sb8''' and '''wimax''') |
| 44 | * sb4 (make a reservation for '''sb4''' - you do not need to also reserve '''wimax''', because sb4 has its own base station that is reserved automatically). |
| 45 | |
| 46 | The NYU-Poly facility only has a single testbed. When you make a reservation at NYU-Poly, you have reserved the entire testbed, including all nodes and the WiMAX base station. |
