3. End-to-End Validation

The RSpec file 4node-stitching.rspec is modified from 4node-final.rspec created in Step II, so all software has been installed to the slivers already. Open two terminals, and login to the client and server, respectively.

Run ping and traceroute from the client to the server

xuanliu@client:~$ ping 192.168.20.10

From the traceroute result, we found that the delay between the client and router-1, the delay between router-3 and the server were very small (about 0.5ms), this is because the end host and the associated router are from the same aggregate. However, the delay between router-1 and router-2 was about 38ms, and this reflected the delay between the aggregate located at Wisconsin and the aggregate located at New York City, and this shows the delay of the stitched link.
