Accomplishments so far
Gantt Chart
Going forward: Tasks Agenda
3. PC2S (Portable Command and Control System)
4. Lab network diagram
5. The objective of this project is to complete development of a prototype Integrated Network Test and Configuration Tool (INTACT ) for portable command and control systems (PC2S).
Conduct a survey of literature related to automated network testing and configuration tools and available system software.
The team shall develop a set of specifications for a demonstration system and test environment including the requirements for INTACT 2, how INTACT 2 components communicate and how these interact with system under test. Statement of Work (SOW)
6. System design/integration: Based on the requirements, the team shall design and integrate the INTACT 2 components.
System testing: The team shall develop test plans and procedures and carry out testing of the INTACT 2 in laboratory and field settings.
Demonstration: The team shall demonstrate the INTACT 2.
Report: Document evolution of the project and create a user’s manual.
SOW continued
7. First round of tasks: Use OTS programs to manually test and configure network connections
ipconfig
Ping, WS_Ping ProPack
PuTTY
SoftPerfect Network Scanner
Create set of automatic scripts which will invoke these OTS programs to test the network connections in various ways.
Phantom for Windows by P1 Systems, ActivePerl
Technical research
8. SoftPerfect Network Scanner
9. 2 more meetings with mentor, Mr. Deshler
Introduced to lab equipment and access codes
“Crash courses” in networking, IP addressing
Reviewed status of first generation INTACT, and how the INTACT2 team will add value
Researched past projects
INTACT, Winter 2008
Team used manual tools (ipconfig, PuTTY) to connect to various network nodes
Scripts were written to automate some of these tasks, some of which were not successful.
Accomplishments this week
10. INTACT2 Gantt Chart
11. Find task automation scripts (Phantom) written by prior team, to see how we can improve upon them to achieve full compliance to SOW.
ECE 191 WI-08 website still not up, have been in contact with TA to resolve.
Recent update: WI-08 website is not available. Work w/ instructor or mentor to retrieve project materials.
Project needs
12. Continue research and familiarization with OTS network test solutions
Learn to use “Phantom” task automation software and scripting language
Begin configuration of lab components to build a working network.
Download and begin learning ActivePerl
