Detailed Description

This helper extends the base class and can be instantiated to create and configure an OpenFlow 1.3 network domain composed of one or more OpenFlow switches connected to a single or multiple internal simulated OpenFlow controllers.

Introspection did not find any typical Config paths.

It brings methods for installing the controller and creating the OpenFlow channels.

No Attributes are defined for this type.

◆ OFSwitch13InternalHelper()

ns3::OFSwitch13InternalHelper::OFSwitch13InternalHelper ( )

Default constructor.

◆ ~OFSwitch13InternalHelper()

ns3::OFSwitch13InternalHelper::~OFSwitch13InternalHelper ( )

override

Dummy destructor, see DoDispose.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Connect()

NetDeviceContainer ns3::OFSwitch13InternalHelper::Connect	(	Ptr< Node >	ctrl,
		Ptr< Node >	swtch
	)

protected

Create an individual connection between the switch and the controller node, using the already configured channel type.

Parameters

ctrl	The controller node.
swtch	The switch node.

Returns: The devices created on both nodes.

◆ CreateOpenFlowChannels()

void ns3::OFSwitch13InternalHelper::CreateOpenFlowChannels ( )

overridevirtual

This virtual method must interconnect all switches to all controllers installed by this helper and starts the individual OpenFlow channel connections.

Attention: After calling this method, it will not be allowed to install more switches or controller using this helper.

Implements ns3::OFSwitch13Helper.

◆ DoDispose()

void ns3::OFSwitch13InternalHelper::DoDispose ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Destructor implementation.

Reimplemented from ns3::OFSwitch13Helper.

◆ GetTypeId()

static TypeId ns3::OFSwitch13InternalHelper::GetTypeId ( )

static

Register this type.

Returns: The object TypeId.

◆ InstallController()

Ptr<OFSwitch13Controller> ns3::OFSwitch13InternalHelper::InstallController	(	Ptr< Node >	cNode,
		Ptr< OFSwitch13Controller >	controller = `CreateObject< OFSwitch13LearningController >()`
	)

This method installs the given controller application into the given controller node.

If no application is given, a new (default) learning controller application is created and installed into controller node.

Parameters

cNode	The node to configure as controller.
controller	The controller application to install into cNode

Returns: The installed controller application.
