Quoting that webpage:
  RARE (Router for Academia, Research & Education) is an ongoing effort
  under the GÉANT 4th programme which focus on determining if a routing
  software platform solution can fit R&E use cases.

  r1----e1----r2

  e2          e2

  r3----e1----r4
found at http://www.freertr.org/offline.html The rN are probably Routers.
I have no idea what eN are, but two e1 and two e2 might be copy and
paste errors.
