GENI-LEARN Integration using ORCA Deniz Gurkan, Charles Chambers, Tesfaye Kumbi, Maanasa Madiraju, and Karthik R. Narumanchi University of Houston March 15, 2011

GOAL Demonstrate the provisioning of VLANs over the members of cluster D End-End connectivity between BEN network and LEARN end point Integration of NLR-LEARN-SETG Deployment of Cisco 3400 ME switches to all designated institutions GEC-10

Phases of Deployment GEC9: An emulation network with Cisco 3400s – QinQ demonstration – Handler testing on emulation network Early Jan’11: Determination of VLAN assignments and translation points Feb’11: Designation of campus and RON connection points GEC10: Deployment at UH, Rice, TAMU, and UT- Austin GENI-LEARN Integration

Translation Points and Interfaces NLR – LEARN: VLANs from NLR are mapped to reserved range of VLANs on LEARN SETG (Southeast Texas Gigapop) – LEARN: SETG resources take VLANs from LEARN as a distribution point to other institutions Institutions – SETG: Each institution has a pair of VLAN id’s for data and management VLAN Assignments

Management & Data VLANs BEN VLANs carried by NLR to LEARN via VLAN# Data VLANs: All odd VLANs 3201, 3203, 3205, 3207 Management VLANs: All even VLANs 3202, 3204, 3206, 3208 Test successful between sites UH, RICE, TAMU, UT. VLAN Assignments UHRICEUTTAMU DATA VLAN MANAGEMENT VLAN
