Application name is pcap_switch.py
Overview
POX has a simple OpenFlow dataplane implementation. It can be tested using OFTest framework. To connect data ports of POX switch implementation to OFTest Linux virtual ethernet interfaces (VETH) are used. And a default controller port 6633 is used for Openflow connection.
Example topology
Running OFTest
- sudo ip link add type veth
- sudo ifconfig veth0 up
…
sudo ifconfig veth7 up - sudo ./pox.py –no-openflow datapaths.pcap_switch –address=127.0.0.1 –ports=veth0,veth2,veth4,veth6
- sudo ./oft -i 1@veth1 -i 2@veth3 -i 3@veth5 -i 4@veth7 -H 127.0.0.1 –log-file=”results.log”
