Aggregate Resources An InstaGENI aggregate includes 5 Hosts (3 VM Servers and 2 dedicated PCs) that can load experimenter specified OS images. Racks also support OpenFlow topologies, usually including extensions onto campus OpenFlow networks. Rack servers are HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8.
Typical Experiments InstaGENI provides a controllable, predictable, and repeatable network environment. Experimenters can get virtual machines or dedicated PCs on which they have full "root" access, run available operating systems of their choice, and connect nodes in an arbitrary topology that can support OpenFlow.
Sample RSpecs
Aggregate Status Operational monitoring not widely available, restricted access to monitoring at GMOC
Slice Authorities Recognized GENI Portal (https://portal.geni.net), ProtoGENI (http://www.emulab.net)
Usage Policies A GENI Recommended Use Policy is available. Site should also add links here to their own usage policies.
Layer 2 Connectivity Internet2 ION via MOXI-CIC OpenFlow Regional Networks

The following is the layout of OpenFlow switch connections for the InstaGENI Aggregate. Shown are the OpenFlow Switches:

  • InstaGENI Switch procurve2: Model: HP J8697A Switch E5406zl with VLAN 2494 (Maps to 1750 in GENI core) DPID: 09:be:2c:59:e5:22:8c:00

NOTE: OpenFlow resources at must be allocated at MOXI-CIC OpenFlow Regional to connect to the GENI core network.


All MOXI InstaGENI nodes participating in layer2 dataplane OpenFlow experiments are on the following VLAN:

VLAN ID Purpose
2494 Shared Meso-scale OpenFlow VLAN


Shared Meso-scale Port List

MOXI's OpenFlow connection to the GENI core network is via port name="A24" num="24" on the procurve2 switch on VLAN 2494.

All host eth1, eth2 and eth3 interfaces are connected to the OpenFlow switch for experimental use. Full list of port names and port numbers:
