== Agenda / Details ==
'''Complete your first experiment using GENI! '''
Develop a basic understanding of the experiment workflow by doing a simple layer 2 experiment.
While doing this experiment, use and understand the following terms: experimenter, project, slice, aggregate, resource, resource specification (RSpec)
Do the experiment using the following tools: GENI Portal, Flack, ssh & ssh keys
==== Pre-Requisites ====
There are no pre-requisites for this tutorial.
''This is the first part of a [wiki:GEC17Agenda/GettingStartedWithGENI three part tutorial]. This tutorial or equivalent experience is a pre-requisites for [wiki:GEC17Agenda/GettingStartedWithGENI_II Part II].''
The following background will be helpful for this tutorial:
* A basic familiarity and comfort with using a UNIX command line
* A basic understanding of GENI concepts such as those covered in the [wiki:GEC17Agenda/IntroToGENI Introduction to GENI and Experimentation using GENI] talk immediately prior to this tutorial
==== Please Arrive With: ====
1. Laptop with a recent version of [http://www.virtualbox.org/ Virtual Box].
1. A GENI Experimenter Portal account.
==== Results ====
In Part I, attendees will run their first complete experiment in GENI.
At the end of Part I, attendees will be able to:
* Use and understand the following terms:
- Experimenter
- Project
- Slice
- Aggregate
- Resource
- Resource Specification (aka RSpec)
* Do the complete experiment workflow:
- understand how to use their GENI Experimenter Portal account to join a project and create a slice
- know how to draw an experimental topology and reserve resources using a graphical tool (Flack)
- know how to log into compute resources using ssh and a private key
- know how to manually load software onto a compute node
- have run a simple layer 2 experiment
- know how to delete resources
