Following steps are the initial VM setup for running any kind of experiments with Multipath QUIC protocol, courtesy of the original MP-QUIC authors (put refs;). The environment/experiments setup is from PStream (put refs;), as well as the stream scheduling code (mpquic-rl) which is used as the basis for building our RL agent.

The list should be sufficient to get you started on the VM and the projects' structure but is not runnable complete.

Information on how to run the agent, should be available under central_service/README.md.

Steps:

1. Grab the original MP-QUIC VM image from https://multipath-quic.org/2017/12/09/artifacts-available.html

   i. Start up the VM with KEMU

   ii. SSH Into the VM (user: mininet, pass: mininet)

   iii. Place your ssh public keys under ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (from link above this is step 3 from end)

2. Copy the contents of 'minitopo/' under VM's '~/git/minitopo/src/'

3. Move (as in mv) the original quic-go directory under '~/go/src/github.com/lucas-clemente/quic-go/' to '~/go/src/github.com/lucas-clemente/mp-quic'

4. Under the original '~/go/src/github.com/lucas-clemente/quic-go/' copy all contents of 'mpquic-rl'

5. Under '~/go/src/github.com/mkanakis/test-zmq/reply/' place the contents of 'middleware' (This path will change in a subsequent version)

6. Create a directory 'client' under '~/go/src/github.com/lucas-clemente/'

   i. Inside the client directory copy the folder 'dependency_graphs'

7. Create a directory 'server' under '~/go/src/github.com/lucas-clemente/'

   i. Inside the server directory extract the server.tar.gz with the missing and pages directories respectively

8. Everytime you start up the VM, remember to run the './mount_tmpfs.sh' under '~/'

The dependency_graphs and the server files for step 6. and 7. can be downloaded from here (in the section 'Dependency Graph').
