Labs

The course includes one laboratory exercise.

Deadlines, Hand-in Procedure & Grading

Hand in your labs in Postbox 50, floor 4, house 1, Polacksbacken.
Everything you hand in should of course be labeled with your names and signed.

Deadlines will be strictly enforced. Any labs that are not in the postbox when it is emptied (sometime after the given deadline) will not be graded during the course. They will end up in a pile that is processed sometime between the end of the course and the end of August the following year.

Each lab will give a certain amount of points that is added to a total lab score. The score needed in order to pass the lab part of the course is 60% of the total lab score. No retakes on the labs are possible.

Genie Lab Environment

The laboratory exercises (Snoop and Routing) are based on the Genie lab environment. Genie is a Linux system that runs off a bootable CD and is compatible with most PC computers. The system is pre-configured with everything you need to do the laboratory exercises. You can download an ISO-image below and burn it to a CD that you can run at home if you wish. You will find instructions for the two labs below.

There will be two scheduled lab sessions in which a computer lab will be set up to run Genie. This means that you can choose to do the labs at home or during the scheduled lab session hours. Note, however, that you won't be able to run Genie in our computer labs outside the scheduled hours. During lab sessions there will be supervision available, something that you naturally will not get at home.

The Genie ISO-file

If you want to run Genie at home, then burn the above file to a CD and make sure your computer is set to boot from CD.

If you do the labs at the scheduled hours, you do NOT need to bring a CD yourself.

Snoop Lab

Snoop lab instructions: PDF Note that these instructions are newer than the ones on the CD.
