Federating a CRON into ProtoGENISpiral 2 Year-end Project Review Louisiana State University PI: Seung-Jong Park Co-PI: Rajgopal KannanStudents: Lin Xue, Cheng Cui, Chase Pierson Aug 30, 2010
Project Summary • Goal • Integrating a cyber-infrastructure for reconfigurable optical networking testbed (CRON) into GENI control framework • Objectives • Establishing networking connections and stabilizing experiment environments between CRON and other ProtoGENI project sites (such as Utah, Kentucky, etc.) over Internet2. • Implementing common interfaces and a component manager based on GENI control framework. • Deploying a federated operation and sharing integrating experience with ProtoGENI and other GENI control framework groups.

Milestone & QSR Status August 30, 2010
Accomplishments 1: Advancing GENI Spiral 2 Goals • Integration • Integrated CRON resources with ProtoGENI resources • Interoperability • CRON aggregate manager has been based on the ProtoGENI aggregate manager which supports interoperability among different control frameworks • Establishing a GENI measurement architecture • PIs have discussed about the collaboration with GENI measurement teams, such as OnTimeMeasure from Ohio supercomputing center and perfSONAR from Univ. Delaware in order to embed those works into CRON testbed. • Openflow switch • PIs purchased 1Gbps NetFPGA and are installing Openflow switch at CRON testbed to support experimentations with Openflow switches. And they plan to extend the testbed with 10Gbps NetFPGA and Openflow switch at the end of 2010 when the boards are available. August 30, 2010
Issues • Regarding preparing integration tests among different federation sites, • Now each federation project seems to have an individual communication to other projects to prepare federated tests in an ad-hoc way. It would be better to start to coordinate the federated tests among all federated projects together. August 30, 2010
Plans • What are your plans for the remainder of Spiral 2? • Integration of CRON into other GENI control frameworks with common aggregate manages • Experimentations with GENI control frameworks over Internet2 • Installation of Openflow switch over 10Gbps NetFGPA boards into CRON testbed • Installation of other instrumentation and measurement projects into CRON testbed.
