v13 v14 27 27 == 2. Why should I use GENI? == 28 28 GENI might be right for you if your experiment requires: 29 * ''A large-scale experiment infrastructure.'' GENI can potentially provide you with more resources than is typically found in any one laboratory. GENI give you access to hundreds of widely distributed resources including compute resources such as virtual machines and "bare-machines" and network resources such as links, switches and !WiMax base stations.29 * ''A large-scale experiment infrastructure.''

GENI allows you to set up Layer 2 connections between compute resources and run your own Layer 3 and above protocols connecting these resources. 31 31 * ''Deep Programmability.'' WIth GENI you can program not only the end hosts of your experimental network but also the switches in the core of your network. This allows you to experiment with novel network layer protocols or with novel IP-routing algorithms.
