This patch adds a test framework using mininet. The following tests can be performed. - Set the flow for the OVS-switch from Ryu-app, we test the actual packet is to be handled properly in accordance with the flow; The packet that generated by "mz" or replayed by "tcpreplay" is routed through the ovs-switch, are processed according to the flow, then compare test conditions and the results captured by "tshark". - Create a packet with ryu using the packet-lib, we test the packet and response are correct; to compare test conditions and the results captured by "tshark". $ ./run_mnet-test.sh [OPTION] [TEST DIR or FILE]... $ ./run_mnet-test.sh l2 l3/icmp packet_lib/arp/ARP_gratuitous.mn $ ./run_mnet-test.sh --help Requirements package: - mininet: git://github.com/mininet/mininet.git - openvswitch: git://openvswitch.org/openvswitch - Mausezahn 0.40: http://www.perihel.at/sec/mz/ - TShark 1.6.2: http://www.wireshark.org/ - tcpreplay 3.4: http://tcpreplay.synfin.net/ Signed-off-by: HIYAMA Manabu <hiyama.manabu@po.ntts.co.jp> Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp>
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, v1.3, 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 ryuIf you prefer to install Ryu from the source code:
% git clone git://github.com/osrg/ryu.git
% cd ryu; python ./setup.py installIf 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 write your Ryu application, have a look at Writing ryu application document. After writing your application, just type:
% ryu-manager yourapp.pySupport
