Set link characteristics

[Arash SARABI]

In our experiment, each link may have a different delay, delay variation, and packet loss ratio.
I was wondering if it was possible to set these variables on the Jupyter notebook (links property) rather than on the nodes.

Thank you

Most of the library functionality that sets internal configuration of the VMs is just a wrapper around SSH (actually paramiko).   We can, and will, add more helper functions like these but there will always be some configuration that we do not anticipate.

You can, however, make arbitrary config like this:

myNode.execute("sudo ip link set dev eth1 mtu 9000")

You can even dynamically create the command to get the device names like this:

myiface = myNode.get_interface(network_name='myNetwork')
myNode.execute(f"sudo ip link set dev {myiface..get_os_interface()} mtu 9000")

There is an example of creating similar commands in this notebook: https://github.com/fabric-testbed/jupyter-examples/blob/master/fabric_examples/fablib_api/create_l2network_basic_tagged.ipynb

Note that some time soon we will update the config to use NetworkManager inside the VMs.  When this happens you will need to either use NetworkManager to configure the VMs or turn network manager off before issuing ‘ip’ commands.  The benefit of NetworkManager is that changes will live through the VM being rebooted.

Thank you for all your help,

How can I use Bash “magic”? when I try to use the following command it returns an error.

%%bash -s “$FABRIC_SLICE_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE” “$FABRIC_BASTION_USERNAME” “$FABRIC_BASTION_HOST” “$ROMEO_USER” “$ROMEO_IP”
ssh -q -o StrictHostKeyChecking=accept-new -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -i $1 -J $2@$3 $4@$5 << EOF
##############################################

echo ‘Hello from:’; hostname

##############################################
exit
EOF

 

Here is the error:

Warning: Permanently added ‘bastion-1.fabric-testbed.net,152.54.15.12’ (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.

I fixed the issue. Thank you

[ilknur Aydin]

how did you fix the issue?

[ilknur Aydin]

I have this command

%%bash -s “$FABRIC_SLICE_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE” “$FABRIC_BASTION_USERNAME” “$FABRIC_BASTION_HOST” “$ROUTER1_USER” “$ROUTER1_IP” “$router1Cmd”
ssh -q -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -i $1 -J $2@$3 $4@$5 << EOF
##############################################

cd
echo “hello” > hello.txt
##############################################
exit
EOF

 

 

getting the following error, any comments on how to fix the issue or what the issue is?

Host key verification failed.
