Approach
 Create a large scale testing and experimentation
facility by integrating existing and emerging
testbeds
 Rationale for federating testbeds



Large-scale testbeds are needed for integrating and
validating next-generation network technologies.
The federation of distributed test laboratories and
testbeds enables end-to-end interoperability testing
of platforms, networks and services.
The federation of laboratories and testbeds helps to
reduce the risks and costs of large-scale network
infrastructure testing.

The Panlab project
 Main goal:

Develop a vision, roadmap, and legal/administrative
framework for the Pan-European Laboratory
 Background:


The idea for the Pan-European Laboratory was born
in the context of Eureka Cluster Celticas a way for
effective pre-commercial end-to-end testing of
services and products
European competitiveness in ICT is at stake, as
the US (FIND/GENI) and others are developing
large testing facilities for the future Internet
respectively next-generation networks

Discover, compose, provision testing services
• TEAGLE
•a dedicated web-based tool
for federated testing
• operated by the
organisation’s
office(Responsible for the
testbed resource coordination
and the long term evolution of
the federation)
• using Teagle, customers
can define and locate
specific testbed facilities
suitable to their testing
needs

Octopus Network
 Octopus Network is a combination of pioneering wireless
testbeds based in Oulu
 With world-class partners like Nokia, Intel and Alcatel-Lucent,
Octopus Network is a global wireless hotspot
 Testing will be a globally increasing business area in the future.
We want to provide our customers cost effective access to the
latest wireless technologies in closed testing environments
 The core of the Octopus service is a closed operator environment

Remote secure access: VPN,IPSec,SSH
 Octopus services

A real, operator-level IMS infrastructure for third party testers (max. 500
000 subscribers simultaneously)

Development and testing

Application testing

Interoperability testing in an authentic operator environment

Technology consultation

Beta platform
 provide support and infrastructure for the
interconnection of testbeds and demonstrators
 This project is an outcome of the first "ITsummit" ("IT-Gipfel") held end of 2006. Since
then, mainly driven by Deutsche Telekom
Laboratories
 The Beta Platform is targeted at creating a
marketplace for service development and testing
 In contrast to other distributed labs
like PlanetLab or EmuLab, the distributed testbeds
created by way of interconnecting existing labs
are not open to the Internet
11
Open IMS(IP Multimedia Subsystem) Playground
 Open testbeds have ever since played a major role for our
research activities in terms of result validation and prototype
development

It is OPEN in a sense that it is in a constant process of evolving. It is open
to new partners, new components, new technologies, as well as new
concepts and paradigms.
 Our aim is to facilitate the usage of latest technologies in the field
of IMS, NGN, SOA, and IPTV
 Type of organisation: Academic institute
 the services offered:

Deliver prototype component implementations

Instantiation of the Open IMS Playground

Interconnection of testbeds

Demo development

Unique offering: Open Source IMS Core and build the community around it

Panlab assures connectivity to any possible technology
provided by the Panlab community

OneLab
An Open Networking Laboratory Supporting Communication Network
Research Across Heterogeneous Environments
Serge Fdida
Université Pierre et Marie Curie
Laboratoire LIP6-CNRS
OneLab
 An open federated laboratory, built
on PlanetLab Europe, which supports network
research for the future internet
 Goals



Extend
– Extend PlanetLab into new environments, beyond
the traditional wired internet
Deepen
– Deepen PlanetLab’s monitoring capabilities
Federate
– Provide a European administration for PlanetLab
nodes in Europe
16
Extend and Deepen
 OneLab’s New Environments





WiMAX (Université Catholique de Louvain)
UMTS (Università di Napoli, Alcatel Italia)
Wireless ad hoc networks (France Telecom at Lannion)
Emulated (Università di Pisa)
Multihomed (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid)
 OneLab Monitoring Components


Passive monitoring (Intel Research Cambridge)
 Track packets at the routers
Topology monitoring (U. P. & M. Curie)
 – Provide a view of the route structure
 – Build on Scriptroute to provide scalable active
measurements
17
Federation
 Set up a functional PlanetLab Central in Europe to
manage European sites
 Create a federation between PlanetLab Europe
and PlanetLab Central at Princeton
 The federated structure will allow:


– PlanetLab Europe to set policy in accordance with
European research priorities,
– PlanetLab Europe to customize the platform, so long as
a common interface is preserved
 Requirements

Universal agreement on minimal core(narrow waist)

Allow independent pieces to evolve independently

FEDERICA Objectives
25
26
FEDERICA Principles
 1. Create an agnostic and neutral (transparent) infrastructure
 2. Create “slices” which are a set of (virtual) network and computing resources
according to user’s request and are “disruptible”
 3. Provide to the user complete control within a slice down to the lowest
possible layer (in particular allow any application and protocol)
 4. Strive/engineer for reproducibility of experiments, i.e. given the same initial
conditions, the results of an experiment are the same
 5. Allow slices (if requested) to connect to the general Internet, to access
external services/nodes (e.g. for content/delivery, specialized HW)
 6. Ensure isolation between slices maintaining the possibility to cross- connect
slides on request
 7. Allow simultaneous use without conflict
 8. Force/be exposed to topology changes (various level of resiliency)
 9. Open to interconnect / federate with other e-Infrastructures
 10. Access granted through a User Policy Board
27
Access and Use Policies
 Usage of a FEDERICA slice will be free of charge if no additional
equipment is requested
 Interconnection with other infrastructures (e.g. labs) is possible.
The cost has to be defined case by case.
 A User Policy Board will receive and approve projects for the use of
the infrastructure
 Access to the infrastructure is subject to the signature of an
“Acceptable User Policy”, which includes providing feedback
 The time duration of a single experiment will be in principle limited
to facilitate turnover (3 months initially, extension possible)
 Access is open to research groups from academia and private
sector with priority to European Community funded projects.
 The code and tool bench produced will be Open Source
