Demonstration 3

Purpose

Demonstration 3 breaks from the first two mock demos. ETCE was written to test EMANE. It's reason for being is to make writing and running EMANE emulations easier. The list of project Wrappers in the last demonstration makes clear that network emulation is ETCE's domain.

Demonstration 3 gets going along this path. In this demonstration we'll run emane-tutorial demonstration 3 using ETCE. Most of the necessary background for this demonstration is already covered. The main goal here is to orient users to what an EMANE emulation looks like in ETCE. Still, we'll cover some new things:

1. Our demonstration ETCE Plan File adds a new section, containertemplates, that reduces duplication in building containers by allowing incremental definition through inheritence.

2. We'll introduce an execution graph to help visualize the connection between test steps, hosts and input files for understanding how an ETCE test executes.
