RARE@NMaaS Domain
In order to provide access to the testbed and provide also with some services that are needed to support it, the NMaaS RARE@NMaaS provides among others with VPN access, a reservation service based on schedule (Booked) and a bastion from which the resources are accessible. The picture below is a simplistic representation on your access to the testbed.
- You will basically connect through a VPN network to get access to the NMaaS RARE@NMaaS domain.
- You will provide with an ssh public key that will be installed on the testbed to allow you ssh access.
- You will connect to the Booked service to make your reservation
- Your ssh public key will be automatically installed and removed at the precise timeslot on the "Researchers bastion" and the reserved devices.
- You should now be able to ssh to the "Researchers bastion" and from there jump to the reserved resource.
- You can happily code, compile and test your p4 code on top of a powerful Tofino device.
