The "Hello World" Experiment is simple.  The script for this experiment is shown below.

{{{

#
# Define nodes used in experiment
#
defNodes('sender', [1,1]) {|node|
  node.image = nil  # assume the right image to be on disk

  node.prototype("test:proto:sender", {
    'destinationHost' => '192.168.1.2',
    'packetSize' => 1024,
    'rate' => 300,

}

defNodes('receiver', [1,2]) {|node|
  node.image = nil  # assume the right image to be on disk
