How to Progress with SVC Integration All necessary steps are summarized at nto_the_SVC Partners need to make a decision which approach to take to automatically clear configurations of lab devices before every reserved timeslots –General customizable cleaning system was designed and implemented nce_Systems/Configuration_Cleaning –Every partner is responsible for customization of example Configuration Cleaning Controller (see our SVN)‏ Recommended solutions: power switch or scripts

Where to find installation instructions for individual components ? (1)‏ Lab Management Network VPN Gateway – ement_Network_VPN_Gateway_System_Installation Shibboleth Identity Provider – oleth_for_our_AAA#Installation_Howto_for_EdiNet_IdP_and_SP Terminal server –Use HW device or our Linux-based implementation –HW device must be compatible with the Common Terminal Server Model (see del)‏ –See based_Terminal_Server for information concerning our Linux- based implementation

Where to find installation instructions for individual components ? (2)‏ Configuration cleaning system (powerswitch or scripts)‏ – aintenance_Systems/Configuration_Cleaning Physical setup of lab task using network devices – nd_Lab_Interconnection#General_Remote_Access_S olution
