You need access to a network that supports 15-30 mbps of multicast
traffic - or you'll need to use a multicast tunnel that is located on a
multicast enabled network (AG Bridge, rcBridge). In order to "meet"
with others in the current AG community, you'll need access to a
network that peers with the networks that other AG nodes use -
certainly access to the Abilene backbone will get you connected to
these folks (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://abilene.internet2.edu/">http://abilene.internet2.edu/</a>).<br>
<br>
When you install the AG software, it will take you through a process to
"get" a certificate - first to make the request and then to retrieve
the certificate, after ANL has "granted" it.<br>
