OpenFlow Load Balancer Tutorial

1. Obtain resources

For this experiment we are going to use resources in ExoGENI GPO or ExoGENI RENCI, we will need:

• 6 VM (KVM): 2 (inside, outside) act as regular hosts; 2 (left, right) as regular switch; 2 (Aggregator, Switch) as OpenFlow Switch (we will only program one: Switch)

If you are attending a Tutorial, the resources might have already been reserved for you, check with your instructor and skip this step.

You can use any reservation tool you want to reserve this topology:

• For Omni or Flack you can use the RSpec that is published at: ​http://www.gpolab.bbn.com/experiment-support/OpenFlowExampleExperiment/ExoGENI/openflow-loadbalancer-kvm.rspec and the ExoGENI GPO AM or the ExoGENI RENCI AM
• At the ​GENI Experimenter Portal there is a public RSpec called "openflow-load-balancer-kvm" that you can use, and either GPO ExoGENI or RENCI ExoGENI as the AM

Look at the ​Prerequisites for Tutorials about reserving resources.
