     89==== 5.1.1 Send IP traffic ====
     90The first simple experiment that we will run is to verify the IP connectivity between our hosts.
     91 
     92    a. Check the interfaces of your nodes. In the terminal type:
     93    {{{
     94   sudo ifconfig
     95  }}}
     96    You should see at least three interfaces:
     97      * A single '''control interface'''. This is the interface you use to access the node, e.g. ssh into your host. The control interface is mainly used for control traffic, i.e. traffic for controlling the node and the experiment.
     98      * The '''data interfaces'''. These are the interfaces that are used for sending experimental traffic. These interfaces connect to the other hosts of your experiment through GENI. The links between these interfaces are the ones that allow you to run non-IP experiments. '''The data interfaces are the ones that have an IP address and mask that match what you configured before you reserved your resources.'''
     99    b. Fill in the worksheet, noting the name and  IP address of the control and of the data interfaces for each node.

     114    c. From NodeA, `ping` the adjacent NodeB '''data plane interface'''. From the terminal window that is logged in to the client type :
     115{{{
     116    ping <NodeB data IP addr> -c 5
     117}}}
     118       For example:
     119{{{

     122    d. Now, `ping` the NodeB '''control plane interface'''. From the terminal window that is logged in to NodeA type :
     123{{{
     124    ping <NodeB control IP addr> -c 5

     132==== 5.1.2 Install and use `iperf` ====
     133    a. Install the `iperf` software on both NodeA and NodeB:
     134{{{
     135    sudo apt-get install iperf
     136    hash
     137}}}
     138
     139    b. Start an `iperf` server on NodeB:
     140{{{
     141    iperf -s
     142}}}
     143    c. From NodeA, run an `iperf` client via the data plane:
     144{{{
     145    iperf -c <NodeB data IP addr>
     146}}}
     147       For example:
     148{{{
     149    iperf -c 192.168.2.11
     150}}}
     151''What is the bandwidth of this link?''
     152
     153''Why?''
     154    d. On NodeA, run an `iperf` client via the control plane:
     155{{{
     156iperf -c <NodeB control IP addr>
     157}}}
     158       For example:
     159{{{

     161}}}
     162''What is the bandwidth of this link?''
