You can use any reservation tool you want to reserve this topology: * For Omni or Flack you can use the [wiki:GENIExperimenter/RSpecs RSpec] that is published at: http://emmy9.casa.umass.edu/GEC-19/vlcdashtest.rspec and any of the ExoGENI racks. * At the [https://portal.geni.net GENI Experimenter Portal] there is a public RSpec GIMIvlcdash which can be used with any ExoGENI resources Look at the [http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GENIEducation/SampleAssignments/OpenFlowLoadBalancerTutorial/ExerciseLayout#Prerequisites Prerequisites] for Tutorials about reserving resources. = [wiki:GENIEducation/SampleAssignments/VLCDashTutorial/ Introduction] = = [wiki:GENIEducation/SampleAssignments/VLCDashTutorial/Execute Next: Run Experiment] =
