Test Plan Steps

the following aggregate manager nicknames are used:

ig-utah=,https://utah.geniracks.net/protogeni/xmlrpc/am/2.0
ig-gpo=,https://instageni.gpolab.bbn.com/protogeni/xmlrpc/am/2.0

1. As Experimenter1, request ListResources from GPO and Utah InstaGENI

As user lnevers@bbn.com requested listresources from GPO and Utah InstaGENI aggregates:

$ omni.py listresources -a ig-gpo -o
$ omni.py listresources -a ig-utah -o

2. Review ListResources output from both AMs

Reviews output files rspec-instageni-gpolab-bbn-com-protogeniv2.xml and rspec-utah-geniracks-net-protogeniv2.xml to determine available resources.

3. Define a request RSpec for three VMs at GPO InstaGENI

For InstaGENI aggregates, the RSpec for a sliver can include resources from multiple aggregates. The aggregate handling the request will only allocate its own resources, therefore one RSpec is used to capture the resource requests for both sites in this scenario.

Defined an RSpec that requests one three VMs at the GPO rack and three VMs at the Utah rack. For each rack aggregate, one of the VMs will be an end-point host and the other two VMs will be click routers.

The RSpec generated is IG-EXP-7.rspec and the topology is shown in the following image using client_ids defined in the RSpec:

4. Define a request RSpec for three VMs at Utah InstaGENI

The RSpec generated for the GPO aggregate is also used for the Utah aggregate, the file is IG-EXP-7.rspec.

5. Create slice

Created a slice:

$ omni.py createslice IG-EXP-7

6. Create a sliver

In the slice IG-EXP-7 create a slivers at each AM, using the RSpecs defined above.

$ omni.py createsliver -a ig-gpo IG-EXP-7 IG-EXP-7.rspec
$ omni.py createsliver -a ig-utah IG-EXP-7 IG-EXP-7.rspec

7. Install Click router

Download the Click Router software on the 4 nodes that will be routers in the experiment. Build the user-level Click program in the 'userlevel' directory on each of the 4 router nodes.

$ sudo yum -y install git
$ sudo git clone git://read.cs.ucla.edu/git/click /local/click
$ cd /local/click
$ sudo ./configure
$ cd tools
$ sudo make install
$ cd /local/click/userlevel/
$ sudo make install

8. Determine Click router settings

Determine the interface to MAC address mapping, and various settings required for the 4 router node and modify click configuration.

9. Run the user-level Click router

Run the user-level Click router by providing the configuration file name as an argument on each node.

10. Log in to Host1 and send traffic to host2

Log in to Host1 and send traffic to host2 and leave traffic running.

11. Review Click logs on each Click router

16. Delete slivers
