Emulab FAQ: Using the Testbed: Do you have a GUI to help me create experiments?

Yes, we provide a GUI that gives you an easy to use drawing palette on which you can place nodes, lans, and links. Testbed specific attributes such as operating system, hardware type, and link/lan characteristics, may be attached to each object. With a single click, you can instantiate your new topology on the Testbed as an experiment in one of your projects. Alternatively, you can save the auto-generated NS file on your machine, edit as required, and then submit it later when creating an experiment.

To access the GUI, please log in and go to the Begin Experiment page. Note: you need a Java compliant browser.
