[[TOC(heading=Tutorial TOC, Tutorial, depth=2)]] = ORBIT Tutorials = == 1. Basic Tutorial == This section gives an introduction to the ORBIT testbed, its capabilities and its operations. It also presents the basic knowledge required to write and execute experiments for the testbed. If you are new to the ORBIT testbeds, reading and running the tutorial in this section should help you getting started. The first part of this tutorial briefly describes the ''ORBIT Testbed'', its system architecture and its hardware and software components. The second part presents and describes a simple "Hello World" experiment with one sender and one receiver. The third and concluding part covers the collection an interpretation of measurements and results of an experiments on the ORBIT testbed. * [wiki:Tutorial/Testbed Brief tour of the Testbed] * [wiki:Tutorial/HelloWorld First Experiment: the "Hello World" Example] * [wiki:Tutorial/CollectingMeasurements How measurements are collected] * [wiki:Tutorial/AnalyzeResults How to post-process these measurements] [[BR]] == 2. More Tutorials == After completing the above basic tutorial, you should have a better understanding of using the ORBIT testbed to experiment your ideas, algorithms, or protocols. The tutorials in this second section further explore the various ORBIT functions that will help you write and execute more advanced experiments. Finally, some more detailed information and references can be found on the [wiki:Documentation Documentation] page === 2.1 Tutorials on controlling the testbed nodes === * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToImage How to load (install) a disk image on a set of nodes] * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToSave How to save an existing disk image from one node] * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToStatus How to query the status of a set of nodes] * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToSwitch How to switch On/Off a set of nodes] === 2.2 Tutorials for various type of experiments === ==== About commands and applications ==== * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToCommand How to run a shell command on the node(s)] * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToApplication How to run and install an application on the node(s)] * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToAppPrototype How to run an application on the node(s) using ''Prototypes''] ==== About topologies ==== * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToTopology How to define and use Topologies - simple example] * [wiki:Tutorial/HowToTopology2 How to define and use multi-hop Topologies] == Further Documentation == The OMF project has further documentation at http://mytestbed.net/projects/omf.
