| 4 | |
| 5 | The Internet2 (I2) GENI Stitching Computation Service (SCS) was developed by the [http://www.maxgigapop.net/ Mid-Atlantic Crossroads] (MAX) team and is currently run and supported by Internet2. This services provides network stitching path information between GENI sites. Service is available at: |
| 6 | |
| 7 | - http://geni-scs.net.internet2.edu:8081/geni/xmlrpc - Pre-GCF 2.8, non authenticated |
| 8 | - https://geni-scs.net.internet2.edu:8443/geni/xmlrpc - Secure and authenticate supported by GCF 2.8 or higher. |

| 14 | = Stitching Service Details = |
| 15 | |
| 16 | The GENI SCS was developed by [http://www.maxgigapop.net/ MAX] and provides path information to applications that create slivers between GENI sites. The service also track VLAN delegation for all GENI sites that support stitching. For a list of VLANs delegated by all aggregates supporting stitching see the [https://wiki.maxgigapop.net/twiki/bin/view/GENI/StaticNetworksView Delegated GENI Stitching VLANs] page. Also any [wiki:GeniAggregate GENI aggregate] that supports stitching provides information details in its [wiki:GeniAggregate GENI aggregate] page details. |

| 18 | == Stitching Connections to GENI End-points == |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Using GENI credentials, or credentials from an [http://incommon.org InCommon] identity provider, users can request GENI resources using any tools that supports stitching, such as ([http://trac.gpolab.bbn.com/gcf/wiki/Stitcher GCF stitcher], [https://portal.geni.net/ GENI Portal jFed or Jacks tools], and via [http://jfed.iminds.be/ jFed at iMinds]. Production GENI sites that support stitching and are known to the [wiki:GENIRacksHome/Operators/I2SCS I2 SCS] are documented in the [wiki:GeniNetworkStitchingSites GENI Network Stitching Sites] page. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | == Stitching Path details == |
| 23 | |
| 24 | The I2 SCS supplies paths and VLAN information for all sites listed at [wiki:GeniNetworkStitchingSites GENI Network Stitching Sites]. Path chosen may include one or more of the following network aggregates: ION, AL2S, MAX, PG Utah (Utah IG sites only). For a list of VLANs that have been delegate for GENI stitching use see the [https://wiki.maxgigapop.net/twiki/bin/view/GENI/StaticNetworksView Delegated GENI Stitching VLANs] page. |
| 25 | |
| 26 | Path details are not captured here as they are continuously expanding. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | == Topology Information == |
| 29 | |
| 30 | For a list of known stitching aggregate refer to the the [wiki:GeniNetworkStitchingSites GENI Network Stitching Sites] page or simply use the omni tool scs.py to get a list of known aggregates. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | == VLAN Translation == |
| 33 | |
| 34 | The SCS supports interactions with the ION, AL2S and MAX network aggregates, and all support VLAN translation. |
