= DETER Federation =

The DETER federation architecture is a model and mechanism for creating experiments that span multiple testbeds. We have written
[wiki:FeddPubs several papers] about the architecture.  This site is the home for our prototype implementation, fedd.

The Current version is '''fedd 3.20'''.

 * [FeddReleaseNodes Read release Notes]

Fedd 3.20 includes [wiki:FeddABAC ABAC support]. '''Fedd users will need to [wiki:FeddABAC#UserCredentials run a command] to convert their default credentials.'''

We encourage people to download it and try it out, with the caveat that this is the first wide release.  There will be bugs that we expect to quickly address as they are reported.
