This is an attempt to move anonymity networks to programmable hardware. In this project, I'm implementing Crowds with p4. It currently only aims for p4c simulator and mininet.
Run vagrant up at root dir. It should start up a vagrant VM with necessary environment.
You may encounter some subtle problems like lacking dependencies. It varies slightly
for everyone, so fix it yourself.
Then run vagrant ssh to log into the VM. The project is located at /vagrant.
In that dir, first make run to start the network and data planes. Then start
another ssh session to run control_plane.py with python2. Then it should be
working.
For the system to be fully functional, set up a network of jondos, web servers and clients. All jondos and servers' routing information need to be hardcoded in the control plane. Any client can send a packet with jondo header to any switch. Then the switches will function similarly as is described in the Crowds paper.
