Connecting Odin with Mininet-Wifi

[uhlik1889]

Hi,

I have controller connected via loopback 127.0.0.1:6653, to the Mininet. The clients are at 10.0.0.x/8 subnet. The interfaces has been created and the start.sh script runs fine, but I have no new log messages in the controller.

How is the configuration of the floodlightdefault.properties and poolfile, have to be set in my case.

I have them so far like this.

start.sh:

#Variables
"Setting variables"
CTLIP=127.0.0.1 # Controller IP address
SW=br0 # Name of the bridge
DPPORTS="ap1-wlan1" # Port for data plane
VSCTL="ovs-vsctl" # Command to be used to invoke openvswitch

#OVS
#"Restarting OpenvSwitch"
/etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch stop
sleep 1
##The next line is added in order to start the controller after stopping openvswitch
read -p "Now you can launch the Wi-5 odin controller and press Enter" pause

##Clean the OpenVSwitch database
if [ -d "/etc/openvswitch" ]; then
#"OpenVSwitch folder already exists"
else
#"OpenVSwitch folder created"
mkdir /etc/openvswitch
fi
if [ -f "/etc/openvswitch/conf.db" ]; then
#"Cleaning OpenVSwitch database"
rm /etc/openvswitch/conf.db
fi
if [ -f "/var/run/db.sock" ]; then
rm /var/run/db.sock
fi
if [ -f "/var/run/ovsdb-server.pid" ]; then
rm /var/run/ovsdb-server.pid
fi
if [ -f "/var/run/ovs-vswitchd.pid" ]; then
rm /var/run/ovs-vswitchd.pid
fi

##Launch OpenVSwitch
#"Launching OpenVSwitch"
/etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch start

##Create the bridge
$VSCTL add-br $SW
ifconfig $SW up ## In OpenWrt 15.05 the bridge is created down

##Configure the OpenFlow Controller ---------------6653-controller-port-----------------
$VSCTL set-controller $SW tcp:$CTLIP:6653

#Add the data plane ports to OpenVSwitch
for i in $DPPORTS ; do
PORT=$i
ifconfig $PORT up
$VSCTL add-port $SW $PORT
done

#Add the 'ap' interface to OpenVSwitch
#"Adding Click interface 'ap' to OVS"
ifconfig ap up ## Putting the interface 'ap' up
$VSCTL add-port $SW ap ## Adding 'ap' interface (click Interface) to OVS
sleep 1

#Launch click
sleep 3
echo "Launching Click"

Poolfile:

I haven't changed this one.

Floodlightdefault.properties:

floodlight.modules = net.floodlightcontroller.storage.memory.MemoryStorageSource,\ net.floodlightcontroller.staticflowentry.StaticFlowEntryPusher,\ net.floodlightcontroller.learningswitch.LearningSwitch,\ net.floodlightcontroller.jython.JythonDebugInterface,\ net.floodlightcontroller.counter.CounterStore,\ net.floodlightcontroller.perfmon.PktInProcessingTime,\ net.floodlightcontroller.ui.web.StaticWebRoutable, \ net.floodlightcontroller.odin.master.OdinMaster net.floodlightcontroller.restserver.RestApiServer.port = 8080 net.floodlightcontroller.core.FloodlightProvider.openflowport = 6653 net.floodlightcontroller.jython.JythonDebugInterface.port = 6655 net.floodlightcontroller.odin.master.OdinMaster.masterPort = 6653 net.floodlightcontroller.odin.master.OdinMaster.poolFile = poolfile net.floodlightcontroller.odin.master.OdinMaster.clientList = odin_client_list

I assume you have to specify the IP addresses of the Access Points at the beginning of poolfile:
https://github.com/Wi5/odin-wi5-controller/blob/master/poolfile

After NODES you have to put the list with the IPs of the APs.

# Pool-1
NAME pool-1
NODES 192.168.1.13 192.168.1.14 192.168.1.15
NETWORKS wi5-demo

All this is done. The problem was in version of controller. It was showing some error message, which I was ignoring. Simple downloading it again, and replacing, fix the issue.
