[[PageOutline]] = Internet2 GENI Stitching Computation Service = 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: - http://geni-scs.net.internet2.edu:8081/geni/xmlrpc - Pre-GCF 2.8, non authenticated - https://geni-scs.net.internet2.edu:8443/geni/xmlrpc - Secure and authenticate supported by GCF 2.8 or higher. === Contact === Submit issues or questions about the GENI SCS send email to [mailto:noc@net.internet2.edu]. Problem reports can also be directly submitted via the [http://globalnoc.iu.edu/i2network/support/report-a-problem.html problem report] page. = Stitching Service Details = 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. == Stitching Connections to GENI End-points == 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. == Stitching Path details == 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. Path details are not captured here as they are continuously expanding. Both sites and core network Advertisements can be used to determine switch connection details and available VLANs. == Topology Information == 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. == VLAN Translation == The I2 SCS supports interactions with the ION, AL2S and MAX network aggregates, and all these network aggregates support VLAN translation. = Connection Inventory = For a list of AL2S Sites that are known for stitching see the Network Stitching section of the [http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GeniAggregate/I2AL2S#GENINetworkStitching AL2S aggregate] page. For a list of ION Sites that are known for stitching see the Network Stitching section of the [http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GeniAggregate/I2ION#GENINetworkStitching ION aggregate] page. ---- {{{ #!html Email us with questions and feedback on this page! }}}
