Alternatively there is a drag and drop reservation mechanism accessible via Schedule → Bookings . This approach simplifies the search of available devices when no particular device is required but rather simply any device.
Accessing a precise resource
Once the time of your reservation arrives, your cryptographic material will be set in the places where it must be automatically. At that point you will be able to access the device with the following steps
- Start the VPN access as said above
- ssh the resource jumping via the p4-tbd-srv.rare.nmaas.eu
- There is an option to make a 1 step jump to the resources via command
For this to work you will need to may want to configure your .ssh/config file with the following piece of configuration$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/gn4_4096_rsa -J netops@p4testbed p4@172.16.26.103 Linux FRA0001 4.14.151-OpenNetworkLinux #1 SMP Tue May 26 16:08:08 UTC 2020 x86_64 Last login: Wed Jun 3 22:39:51 2020 from 172.16.11.11 p4@FRA0001:~$
Host p4testbed Hostname 192.168.113.104 User netops IdentityFile ~/.ssh/gn4_4096_rsa
- If you want to do a two step jump, you will need to deploy your rsa key to the p4-tbd-srv and take care to remove it when you finish and before access is removed
- There is an option to make a 1 step jump to the resources via command
