This PlanetLab tutorial introduces briefly how the testbed works internally and what MyPLC stands for. An overview of all the backend infrastructure necessary for its day-by-day operation. In a second moment, a practical course on how to create and administrate users, slices takes place. Finally, the tutorial approaches subjects beyond PlanetLab Europe testbed, introducing the SFA the solution, which is proposed by the OneLab Experimental Facility for federating testbeds.
