Test Plan Steps
Notes:
- All steps in this procedure are executed at Utah InstaGENI, not as originally planned at BBN.
- The initial run through combined all steps into one experiment rather than two.
- The following aggregate managers nick_names are define in the omni_config used for this test:
ig=,http://utah.geniracks.net/protogeni/xmlrpc/am pg=,http://www.emulab.net/protogeni/xmlrpc/am pg2=,https://www.emulab.net:12369/protogeni/xmlrpc/am/2.0 of-bbn=,https://foam.gpolab.bbn.com:3626/foam/gapi/1 of-clemson=,https://foam.clemson.edu:3626/foam/gapi/1 of-i2=,https://foam.net.internet2.edu:3626/foam/gapi/1 of-ig=,https://foam.utah.geniracks.net:3626/foam/gapi/1 of-rutgers=,https://nox.orbit-lab.org:3626/foam/gapi/1 plc-bbn=,http://myplc.gpolab.bbn.com:12346/ plc-clemson=,http://myplc.clemson.edu:12346/
1. As Experimenter1, Determine BBN compute resources and define RSpec
Collect list resources from InstaGENI compute and network aggregate managers.

5. Define a request RSpec for the OpenFlow Core resources
The OF core resources for VLAN 3716 were defined as follows:
- IG-EXP-5-openflow-i2.rspec - Internet2 Core FOAM Aggregate network resources request RSpec.
- IG-EXP-5-openflow-nlr.rspec - NLR Core FOAM Aggregate network resources request RSpec.
6. Create the first slice
Created the first slice as with GPO ProtoGENI credentials:
omni.py createslice IG-EXP-5
7. Create a sliver for the BBN compute resources
Created slivers at:
- PG Utah compute resource aggregate
omni.py -a pg createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-compute-pg.rspec
8. Create a sliver at the I2 meso-scale site using FOAM at site
Created a sliver at the Rutgers FOAM for VLAN 3716:
./src/omni.py -a of-rutgers createsliver IG-EXP-5-scenario1 instarspec/IG-EXP-5-openflow-rutgers.rspec
9. Create a sliver at of the BBN InstaGENI AM
Created slivers at:
- InstaGENI rack compute resource aggregate
- InstaGENI rack FOAM network resource aggregate
omni.py -a ig createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-compute-ig.rspec omni.py -a of-ig createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-openflow-ig.rspec
To login to the compute resources above determine the following:
omni.py -a ig sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o egrep "hostname|port" IG-EXP-5-sliverstatus-utah-geniracks-net-protogeni.json
10. Create a sliver for the OpenFlow resources in the core
Created slivers at Internet2 and NLR FOAM network resource aggregate:
omni.py -a of-i2 createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-openflow-i2.rspec omni.py -a of-nlr createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-openflow-nlr.rspec
10a. Create a sliver for all remaining Meso-scale compute and network resources
The following slivers were created:
omni.py -a pg2 createsliver IG-EXP-5 --api-version 2 -t GENI 3./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-wapg-rutgers.rspec omni.py -a of-rutgers createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-openflow-rutgers.rspec omni.py -a plc-clemson createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-myplc-clemson.rspec omni.py -a of-clemson createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-openflow-clemson.rspec omni.py -a plc-bbn createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-myplc-bbn.rspec omni.py -a of-bbn createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-openflow-bbn.rspec
11. Log in to each of the compute resources and send traffic to the other end-point
The nodes assigned for compute resources were determined as follows:
omni.py -a ig sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o omni.py -a of-ig sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o omni.py -a of-i2 sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o omni.py -a pg2 sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o omni.py -a plc-clemson sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o omni.py -a plc-bbn sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o
The above created output files named IG-EXP-5-sliverstatus-SITENAME.json from which the assigned hosts can be determined:
egrep "hostname" IG-EXP-5-sliverstatus-SITENAME.json
For this experiment, local PG resources were also configured to be allowed on VLAN 1750 thorough the InstaGENI rack, the following sliver was created:
omni.py -a pg createsliver IG-EXP-5 ./instarspec/IG-EXP-5/IG-EXP-5-compute-pg.rspec
To login to this resource, determined access details as follows:
omni.py -a pg sliverstatus IG-EXP-5 -o egrep "hostname|port" IG-EXP-5-sliverstatus-utah-geniracks-net-protogeni.json
12. Verify that traffic is delivered to target

14. As Experimenter2, determine BBN compute resources and define RSpec
Note: for initial run through of this test only one set of credentials were used
15. Determine remote meso-scale NLR compute resources and define RSpec
NLR OpenFlow Rspec was defined in step 5.
16. Define a request RSpec for OpenFlow network resources at the BBN InstaGENI AM
For the initial run which combined the two experiments, these steps were completed above in step 9.
17. Define a request RSpec for OpenFlow network resources at the remote NLR Meso-scale site
18. Define a request RSpec for the OpenFlow Core resources

19. Create the second slice
For the initial run which combined the two experiments, there is no second slice.
20. Create a sliver for the BBN compute resources
See step 10a.
21. Create a sliver at the meso-scale site using FOAM at site

22. Create a sliver at of the BBN InstaGENI AM
See step 9.
23. Create a sliver for the OpenFlow resources in the core
See step 10.
24. Create a sliver for the meso-scale compute resources
See step 10a.
25. Log in to each of the compute resources and send traffic to the other endpoint
Was able to exchange ping traffic between each of the compute resources.
26. As Experimenter2, insert flowmods and send packet-outs only for traffic assigned to the slivers
Nox controller with support for flow-mods available after GEC14.
27. Verify that traffic is delivered to target according to the flowmods settings
See step 26.
28. Review baseline, GMOC, and monitoring statistics
Reviewed the monitoring information available about this experiment:
29. Stop traffic and delete slivers
Stopped traffic to review statistics, but did not delete slivers, trying to run experiment as long as possible before GEC14.
