Scope
The scope of work on this project is to develop, test and deploy a prototype implementation of network instrumentation and measurement systems for the GENI infrastructure.
Priority activities that contribute to this scope include the following items:
- Develop an instrumentation and measurement implementation for GENI that provides an interface for researchers, as well an interface to a GENI control framework.
- Develop an implementation that gives GENI users access to a shared measurement and instrumentation infrastructure that is extensible to several different kinds of measurement devices.
- Implement systems consistent with the GENI Instrumentation and Measurement Systems (GIMS) Specification, to help reduce risks in this as-yet-unimplemented area of GENI.

GENI Instrumentation and Measurement Systems (GIMS) Specification
Spiral 1 Connectivity
There is no deployment outside the PIs labs planned for Spiral 1. ProtoGENI is the control framework for integration.
The measurement devices being developed will be deployed on network links in the lab (taps or span ports on routers/switches). In the longer term (beyond the first year), measurement devices will be deployed in other labs and/or network locations. At this point, these devices will need IP addresses assigned so that they can be accessed by the control framework interface. The address may be private if the clearinghouse manages download and configuration as it would for a network node.
For Spiral 1, there is no requirement for layer 2 virtual ethernets to the project locations, although the measurement devices are aware of VLAN IDs. Longer-term requirements for VLANs are TBD.
