This patch adds a test framework with OVS to test various matches and actions; adding various matches and actions and check `ovs-ofctl dump-flows' output. First, create 'br-tester' bridge: fujita@rose:~$ sudo ovs-vsctl add-br br-tester Secondly, configure the bridge to use the local controller: fujita@rose:~$ sudo ovs-vsctl set-controller br-tester tcp:127.0.0.1 Thirdly, run what you want to test. If you want to try adding flows on OF1.0: fujita@rose:~$ ryu-manager --verbose --run_test_mod ryu.tests.integrated.test_add_flow_v10 ryu.tests.integrated.tester This patch adds three test sets: ryu.tests.integrated.test_add_flow_v10 ryu.tests.integrated.test_add_flow_v12_actions ryu.tests.integrated.test_add_flow_v12_matches Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp>
Ryu Network Operating System
What's Ryu
Ryu is an Operating System for Software Defined Networking.
Ryu aims to provide a logically centralized control and well defined API that make it easy for operators to create new network management and control applications. Currently, Ryu manages network devices by using OpenFlow. You can say that Ryu is an OpenFlow Controller, which support OpenFlow v1.0, v1.2, and Nicira Extensions.
All of the code is freely available under the Apache 2.0 license. Ryu is fully written in Python.
Quick Start
Installing Ryu is quite easy:
% pip install ryu
If you prefer to install Ryu from the source code:
% git clone git://github.com/osrg/ryu.git
% cd ryu; python ./setup.py install
If you want to use Ryu with OpenStack, please refer detailed documents. You can create tens of thousands of isolated virtual networks without using VLAN. The Ryu application is included in OpenStack mainline as of Essex release.
If you want to run your Ryu application, have a look at a simple example. After writing your application, just type:
% ryu-manager yourapp.py
