After you have cloned whole dir from here, use ant eclipse to generate eclipse project file or use ant to compile all source code and genrate executable .jar file.
##FloodLight If you want to know how to run floodlight, follow the tutorial in this link
Before you generate networks traffic in mininet, you should specify the capacity and requirement on links or host using floodlight rest service under this url http://(controller's IP)):8080/wm/fdm/config/json. Do get method on http://localhost:8080/wm/fdm/links/json to get all links in current topology.
###how to set capacity
Customized capacity is realted to real pyhsical links. So when you want set capacity on a link, you should first make sure that link is exist in topology.
eg."cmd":"ADD","dst-port":"2","dst-switch":"00:00:00:00:00:00:00:04","src-switch":"00:00:00:00:00:00:00:03","src-port":"2","capacity":"5.0"}'
###How to set requirement
For conveninece, we assume application on each host could only request for one bandwidth requirement. Thus, the format of requirment is letting source swith's id and port number be identical to destination switch's id and port number.
Eg. {"cmd":"ADD","dst-port":"1","dst-switch":"00:00:00:00:00:00:00:01","src-switch":"00:00:00:00:00:00:00:01","src-port":"1","requirement":"6.0"}'
##Mininet
Basic eperation: following this link
Use dpctl unix:/tmp/(switch name) states-flow to check the switch's flow table in networks,
Use dpctl unix:/tmp/(switch name) meter-config to check meter table.
##Attention
If you want to multiple test algorithm, you have to use cmd=DELETE (virtual link) to clear the path cache.
curl -X POST -d '{"cmd":"DELETE","dst-port":"1","dst-switch":"00:00:00:00:00:00:00:01","src-switch":"00:00:00:00:00:00:00:01","src-port":"1"}' http://localhost:8080/wm/fdm/config/json
