= GENI Racks and Meso-scale !OpenFlow Interoperability = This page describes an interoperability experiment that has been completed between Meso-scale !OpenFlow sites, ExoGENI and InstaGENI !OpenFlow Resources. This experiment used the !OpenFlow VLAN 1750 was used at each Meso-scale site and the GENI Core !OpenFlow VLAN 3716. In this experiment the following resources are reserved: '''ExoGENI''': - Two BBN Campus VMs that have access to OF VLAN 1750 via flowspaces through the ExoGENI rack OF switch. (These OF flowspaces are managed with the ExoGENI FOAM aggregate). - Two BBN ExoGENI rack VMs on !OpenFlow shared VLAN 1750 - Two RENCI ExoGENI rack VMs on !OpenFlow shared VLAN 1750 '''InstaGENI''': - Two InstaGENI rack VMs on !OpenFlow shared VLAN 1750 - Utah PG Campus host that has access to OF VLAN 1750 via flowspaces through the InstaGENI rack OF switch. (These OF flowspaces are managed with the InstaGENI FOAM aggregate.) '''Meso-scale''': - Three meso-scale !OpenFlow Aggregates: Rutgers, BBN and Clemson. - Three meso-scale compute resources sites: 1 WAPG at Rutgers(Internet2), 1 MyPLC at BBN, and 1 MyPLC at Clemson (NLR). - NRL and Internet2 !OpenFlow VLAN 3716 is used for all hosts in experiment1 to exchange traffic The following diagram describes the Meso-scale and GENI Racks interoperability experiment captured in this page: [[Image(Mesoscale-GENIRacks-interop.jpg,90%)]] == Omni configuration settings == The Omni configuration defined the pgeni.gpolab.bbn.com to be used for the credentials and as a slice authority.
