perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

I believe one of the current limitations is that you can only use the management ethernet interface for testing.

Ours told about their testing, I just don’t remember the model of equipment.  The one question I had was how to control the utilization that perfsoanr would have vs the Junos VM.  You wouldn’t want perfsonar to overrun the Junos VM.  They were going to check in on that.  They have not officially endorsed doing this as far as I know.

Our Juniper rep is the one that suggested it actually, I’ll see if he has any more documentation or setup instructions he can share.

Contact your Juniper Rep, they have actually been testing this, just not sure on which switch models.

Subject: [perfsonar-user] Running Perfsonar on a Juniper EX/QFX with a Guest Vm?

 

Just curious if anyone does this or if this is even possible?  Juniper EX4600 and QFX support running a guest virtual machine to run a third party application.  We were thinking that we could load a CentOS .img file and then try to load perfsonar from there?  I may try to play around, but wondering if anyone has tried this or if it should even be something we look into?

 

Thanks!
