How to Create Network in Mininet

How to Create Network in Mininet

Time needed: 5 minutes

Follow from Step 1 to Step 5 in order to create Mininet Network simulation. Quick guide to create Mininet simulation. Reach us , if you want an customize Mininet simulation projects using network.

  1. Open the Mininet terminal

    Initially, download and install the needed version of mininet . Next open the terminal by press ctrl+alt+T buttons or search from the installed software list.Mininet Terminal

  2. Change the Mininet location

    Change the mininet installed location by using the command cd. The location must have the main mininet executable file which is named as “./mininedit.py”.Mininet - installed location

  3. Execute the Mininet command

    Execute the main command “./mininedit.py” to get the simulation window. If the “./mininedit.py is not in the executable format, then change into executable format, by using the command sudo chmod +x mininedit.pyMininet Execution

  4. Construction the network

    In the simulation window goto file menu and select the new project option. And construct the network . during the network construction click and track the needed nodes based on the node types. The types are like the controller,openflowswitch and host nodes.Mininet Network Construction

  5. Connect the Network Nodes

    After construct the network , make connection between the nodes. By using the link components in the list, which is occurred in the left side.Network Connection Nodes
