1. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation A Virtual Computer Networking Lab Mike Zink, Jim Kurose, Max Ott, Jeannie Albrecht NSF Workshop on GENI in Education, October 26 th 2013

2. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 2 GEC17 Computer Networking Labs

3. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 3 GEC17 The “Traditonal” Networks Lab Each institution requires a set of hardware (switches, routers, cables, computers) Hardware outdates fairly quickly Certain aspects are vendor specific Equipment is unused for periods of time

4. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 4 GEC17 The “Virtual” Networks Lab Use GENI infrastructure to teach lab Individual institutions don’t need hardware “Guide” students as much as needed Teach new technologies (e.g., OpenFlow) Downside: Students do not touch hardware
