FIT IoT-LAB: A Large Scale Open Experimental IoT Testbed.

This paper introduces the FIT IoT-LAB testbed, an open testbed composed of 2728 low-power wireless nodes and 117 mobile robots available for experimenting with large-scale wireless IoT technologies, ranging from low-level protocols to advanced Internet services. IoT-LAB is built to accelerate the development of tomorrow's IoT technology by offering an accurate open-access and open-source multi-user scientific tool. The IoT-LAB testbed is deployed in 6 sites across France. Each site features different node and hardware capabilities, but all sites are interconnected and available through the same web portal, common REST interfaces and consistent CLI tools. The result is a heterogeneous testing environment, which covers a large spectrum of IoT use cases and applications. IoT-LAB is a one-of-a-kind facility, allowing anyone to test their solution at scale, experiment and fine-tune new networking concept.
