    1717Currently, this requires a two step process.
    1818 * You first need to log into '''gateway.orbit-lab.org''' with your Orbit credentials using [http://www.openssh.com/ SSH].
     19
     20[[Image(orbit-howto-10.jpg)]]
    1921 * '''During your approved time slot''', you can then log into the '''console''' corresponding to the following table using SSH:
    2022
     23[[Image(orbit-howto-15.jpg)]]
    2124||Main grid (400 nodes)|| console.grid.orbit-lab.org ||
    2225||Sandbox 1 (2 nodes)|| console.sb1.orbit-lab.org ||
     
    3235gateway> ssh username@console.sb9.orbit-lab.org
    3336}}}

    3440When you have successfully logged in, you can start an experiment using the [wiki:NodeHandler nodehandler]. First time users are '''highly''' encouraged to reserve time on a sandbox instead of the main grid, and start with the built-in ''Hello World'' experiment. This experiment will send UDP datagrams of 1024 bytes from node 1-1 to node 1-2 at 300 kbps CBR traffic. Both, sender and receiver, report measurements to a database, using our [wiki:OML OML] measurement framework.

    4858Orbit provides a sophisticated framework to efficiently collect measurements at runtime into a database. This database is accessible to the experimenter during the experiment from the console. At the end of an experiment, the database is copied to an external machine and is accessible without a reservation. More information can be found [wiki:OML here].
