[[BR]] 408 ASNGW-02, that provides virtualized ASN GW functions, for separate slices. [[BR]] 409 OMF-04, that provides a set of OMF/OML functions. [[BR]] 410 411 In some cases, a campus already has a set of OMF/OML functions, and would likely not require the OMF-04 server:[[BR]] 412 Rutgers, WINLAB[[BR]] 413 Rutgers, Bush Campus[[BR]] 414 Polytechnic Institute of NYU[[BR]] 415 416 For the initial bringup, it should be possible to load all functions into one server.[[BR]] 417 418 Recommended server hardware for one-server solution: [[BR]] 403 Per Section 6.1, the system can be configured with as many as three servers, but will be configured with one server for initial bringup, per Figure 2-1c).[[BR]] 404 405 The recommended server hardware for the one-server configuration is: [[BR]] 419 406 * [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/WiMAXInteg/041510%20%20Quote_5018368.pdf Line item 2: HP DL160 G6 dual-processor server] [[BR]] 420 407 * [http://www.intel.com/Products/Server/Adapters/PRO1000PT-DualPort/PRO1000PT-DualPort-overview.htm Intel PRO/1000 PT dual-port server adaptor] [[BR]] … … 445 432 === 6.10 Control and Management === 446 433 434 Control and management of each WiMAX testbed will be done via OMF; see Figure 1-5): 435 447 436 Fig 1-5) Control and Management [[BR]] 448 437 [[Image(Visio-111309b_WiMAXSystemOverview_Page_7.jpg, 90%)]] [[BR]] … … 451 440 === 6.11 Backbone Network Access === 452 441 453 442 Each WiMAX testbed must be connected to a L2 and/or L3 backbone network to handle experiment data flows; see Figure 2-1a). The VLANs associated with each slice must be switched to the appropriate backbone VLAN, or to the backbone L3 network. [[BR]] 443 444 The Rutgers WINLAB testbed has been connected to the Internet2 backbone network, and has used the ION service to extend L2 (VLAN) connections to the NICTA and BBN testbeds. Thus, Internet2 is the preferred backbone for all WimAX testbeds.[[BR]] 454 445 455 446 === 6.12 Federation === 456 447 457 During initial bringup, each WiMAX testbed will operate as a self-contained OMF-controlled testbed. 458 459 Then, various WiMAX testbeds will be federated, by implementing: [[BR]]460 Co ordinated OMF control of two or more testbeds by one experimenter.[[BR]]448 During initial bringup, each WiMAX testbed will operate as a self-contained OMF-controlled testbed. [[BR]] 449 450 Then, various WiMAX testbeds will be federated, by: [[BR]] 451 Connecting the Management and Control Networks of the testbeds together using a multipoint VLAN provided by the GENI backbone, to permit coordinated OMF control of two or more testbeds by one experimenter.[[BR]] 461 452 Connecting experiment data from testbeds together, using a VLAN carried by a GENI backbone.[[BR]] 462 453 463 Issue: How will federation among WiMAX testbeds be accomplished?464 465 Issue: How will WiAMX tesbeds be connected together, using a VLAN carried by a GENI backbone?466 454 467 455 === 6.13 Monitoring and Management ===
