 If you are creating a node type for a typical testbed pc, use the class 'pc.'  If you are creating a node type for special hardware, choose something else such as 'router' for routers or 'appliance' for appliance type nodes.
+
+== Manually adding non-standard nodes ==
+=== Create the node type ===
+
+See the section on node types
+=== Create the nodes manually ===
+
+Connect to the MySQL database on boss (typically tbdb).
+
+{{{
+mysql> insert into nodes (node_id, type, phys_nodeid, role) values ("juniper1", "junpier", "juniper1", "testnode");
+}}}
+
+Update the other fields in the node table for this new type of node:
+
+{{{
+mysql> update nodes set inception=now(), def_boot_path='', def_boot_cmd_line='', next_boot_path='', pxe_boot_path='', rpms='', deltas='', tarballs='', startupcmd='', startstatus='none', bootstatus='unknown', status='', status_timestamp='', failureaction='fatal', eventstate='ISUP', state_timestamp=now(), op_mode='MINIMAL', op_mode_timestamp=now(), allocstate='FREE_DIRTY', allocstate_timestamp=now(), next_op_mode='', ipodhash='' where type="juniper";
+}}}
+
+Set the node status to up for the newly created nodes:
+
+{{{
+mysql> insert into node_status values ('juniper1', 'up', NULL);
+}}}
+
+
+=== Create Interface Table Entries ===
+
+Card is typically incremented and port is always 1 for testbed nodes (I know, confusing).
+
+{{{
+mysql> insert into interfaces (node_id, card, port, interface_type, iface, role) values ("juniper1", 1, 1, "fop", "eth0", "expt");
+mysql> insert into interfaces (node_id, card, port, interface_type, iface, role) values ("juniper1", 2, 1, "fop", "eth1", "expt");
+}}}
+
+We must also setup the interface state table:
+
+{{{
+mysql> insert into interface_state (node_id, card, port, iface) values (\"juniper1", 1, 1, "eth0");
+mysql> insert into interface_state (node_id, card, port, iface) values (\"juniper1", 2, 1, "eth1");
+}}}
+
+=== Create the Wires Table Entries ===
+
+Lets say our juniper has two ports on card 2 of our switch on ports 23 and 24:
+
+{{{
+mysql> insert into wires (node_id1, node_id2, type, card1, port1, card2, port2) values ("juniper1", "hp1", "Node", 1, 1, 2, 23);
+mysql> insert into wires (node_id1, node_id2, type, card1, port1, card2, port2) values ("juniper1", "hp1", "Node", 2, 1, 2, 24);
+}}}
+
+=== Add in entries for power and serial connectivity ===
