ExoGENI Aggregate
Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI)
This ExoGENI aggregate supports the GENI Aggregate Provider Agreement (mm/dd/yyyy).
ExoGENI Aggregate Overview
Aggregate Manager URL | Compute Aggregate: https://rci-hn.exogeni.net:11443/orca/xmlrpc |
Aggregate Resources | An ExoGENI aggregate includes 10 servers (8 VM capable servers and 2 bare metal servers) that can load experimenter specified OS images. Racks also support OpenFlow topologies, usually including extensions onto campus OpenFlow networks. |
Typical Experiments | ExoGENI 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. |
Aggregate Status | Operational monitoring not widely available, restricted access to monitoring at GMOC |
Slice Authorities Recognized | GENI Project Office (http://pgeni.gpolab.bbn.com), 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 | Interconnectivity to ExoGENI racks is implemented through a hub and spoke topology that maps ExoGENI rack participants to RENCI ExoGENI resources using NLR's FrameNet service. Each site has statically provisioned Vlans that provide connectivity back to RENCI. Inter-rack slices are stitched together at RENCI to enable multi-site, multi-point topologies. |
