For this project idea, I would start by gaining a general understanding of the OpenAFS client-server architecture by starting with the documentation and learning how to setup a testing environment on a set of virtual machines. The [OpenAFS documentation][1] includes setup instructions, and you can also look at the [Ansible for OpenAFS][2] roles available in Ansible Galaxy (and github) to more easily setup a test cell. You will want to look the OpenAFS source [docs][3] to gain an overview of the Rx protocol and see the unit [tests][4] for some example simple Rx communication. Hopefully this will point you in the right direction!
