    4141=== i. Create VMs and Virtual Links ===
    4242
    43 Create four VMs from the same InstaGENI aggregate and add the links. Modify each VM's name, set the Sliver Type to `emulab-xen`, and load the custom image by following the steps in the [wiki:GENIExperimenter/Tutorials/SystematicExprCaseStudy/InstallSoftwareQuagga#a4.VerifyInstaGENICustomImage Verify Custom Image] section. You may use the the value https://www.utahddc.geniracks.net/image_metadata.php?uuid=570dc911-2f2b-11e6-9a79-000099989701 in the `Disk Image` option for each router in this topology.

     69=== iii. Delete Routes installed by InstaGENI ===
     70To overcome the issues faced in topologies with loops due to the way routes are installed in InstaGENI, we need to delete those routes on each node. This can be done by turning off and then turning on all the interfaces on a node except ''' ''eth0'' '''. The script to do this task can be found at ''' ''http://www.gpolab.bbn.com/experiment-support/Utilities/ClearRoutesIG.tar.gz'' '''.

     72(1) Click on the node to be configured [[BR]]
     73(2) Scroll down till you see ''Install Tarball'' and click on ''Add''. [[BR]]
     74(3) Enter the url ''http://www.gpolab.bbn.com/experiment-support/Utilities/ClearRoutesIG.tar.gz''. Enter ''/local'' as the ''Install Path''. [[BR]]
     75(4) Scroll down till you see ''Execute Command'' and click on ''Add''. Enter ''sh /local/ClearRoutesIG.sh'' in the box. [[BR]]
     76
     77=== iv. Disable RP Filtering ===
     78Reverse Path Filtering is enabled by default in Linux. This creates issues for topologies with loops. Hence we have to disable Reverse Path Filtering on all interfaces except ''' ''eth0'' '''. The script to turn off Reverse Path Filtering can be found at ''' ''http://www.gpolab.bbn.com/experiment-support/Utilities/DisableRPFiltering.tar.gz'' '''.

     83(4) Scroll down till you see ''Execute Command'' and click on ''Add''. Enter ''sh /local/DisableRPFiltering.sh'' in the box. [[BR]]
     84
     85=== v. Save the Current RSpec ===
    7186
    7287For version control purposes, it is important to save the resource request specification (RSpec) at each step. Thus, once we have defined the topology above, we select the ''' ''Download'' ''' button to save an intermediate version of your RSpec.

    178 Once we have verified the routing functions for the virtual router, we add end hosts to validate the end-to-end communication.  As the figure shows below, we create the same four-node topology by loading `Quagga_4node_rspec.xml` in Flack, and create two more VMs as a client and a server, and add two virtual links.  The links between end-hosts and edge routers are configured as below:

Also we need to install `iperf` separately. In this example, there are only two hosts which need iperf installed, so one option is to login to each host, and manually install it by running
