Last meeting’s SDN Controller basic
commands
from mininet.topo import Topo

Answer to last
from mininet.net import Mininet
from mininet.node import OVSSwitch, Controller, RemoteController

class RectTopo( Topo ):

"Rectangular topology example."

def __init__( self ):

meeting
"Create custom topo."

# Initialize topology
Topo.__init__( self )

# Add hosts and switchesovs-ofctl

# Add links
