+multicluster.py: multiple ONOS clusters example
+
+We create two ONOSClusters, "east" and "west", and
+a LinearTopo data network where the first and second halves
+of the network are connected to each ONOSCluster,
+respectively.
+
+The size of the ONOSCluster is determined by its
+topology. In this example the topology is a
+SingleSwitchTopo of size 1, so the "Cluster" is
+actually a single node (for performance and
+resource usage reasons.) However, it is possible
+to use larger cluster sizes in a large (!) Mininet VM,
+(e.g. 12 GB of RAM for two 3-node ONOS clusters.)
+
+The MultiSwitch class is a customized version of
+ONOSOVSSwitch that has a "controller" instance variable
+(and parameter)
