CRI: Enhancing the Open Network Laboratory

摘要项目：NSF 04-588 CISE计算研究基础设施标题：CRI：增强开放网络实验室提案：CNS 0551651PI: Turner， Jonathan s .机构：华盛顿大学华盛顿大学的主要研究人员将扩展和升级开放网络实验室作为社区资源。开放网络实验室（ONL）为社区提供可扩展的千兆路由器；它允许远程用户为研究和教育进行实验和演示。它可以用来对新的网络架构和服务进行原型化，在不同的细节层次上监控网络流量，并为实验人员提供实时交互和显示。该合同将使用新的网络处理器平台为ONL增加8台路由器；这将允许分组分类、按流排队、灵活的度量以及用于开发新特性的插件。现有的ONL被网络研究人员和教育工作者大量使用。这些增强将使更多的用户能够访问资源，扩展实验的现实性，并使研究和实验更适合新兴的网络架构。更广泛的影响包括为研究和教育提供广泛可达的设施，支持与领先工业部门互补的研究和教育，并为教育用途提供独特的支持现实实验的设施。

AbstractProgram: NSF 04-588 CISE Computing Research InfrastructureTitle: CRI: Enhancing the Open Network Laboratory Proposal: CNS 0551651PI: Turner, Jonathan S.Institution: Washington University The principal investigators at Washington University will extend and upgrade the Open Network Laboratory as a community resource. The Open Network Laboratory (ONL) provides community access to extensible, gigabit routers; it allows remote users to conduct experiments and demonstrations for research and education. It can be used to prototype new network architectures and services, monitor network traffic at various levels of detail, and provide experimenters with real time interaction and display. This award will expand ONL with eight additional routers using new network processor platforms; these will allow packet classification, per-flow queueing, flexible measurement, and plug-ins for developing new features. The existing ONL is heavily used by networking researchers and educators. These enhancements will enable more users to access the resources, expand the realism of experiments, and enable research and experimentation that is better suited to emerging networking architectures. Broader impacts include providing a broadly accessible facility for research and education, supporting research and education that complements a leading industry sector, and providing a facility that uniquely supports realistic experimentation for education uses.
