Getting Started

You must register as an ONL user before you can use the ONL testbed. The registration form can be found by following the Get an account link in the side bar of the ONL web page. After submitting your registration form, you will be notified by email that your account has been activated. Note that logging in via the web page adds links to the sidebar that are only visible to ONL users.

Among the ONL user links in the sidebar will be a link to step-by-step instructions on starting the RLI and logging into the testbed hosts. These instructions include the following:

• Instructions for getting the RLI.jar file from the ONL Web site.
• Instructions for getting the correct version of the Java Run-time Environment (JRE)
• Instructions for setting up your host to remotely access the ONL testbed via the RLI.

Once you are setup to run the RLI, run the RLI by enterring:

     java -jar RLI.jar
