| Umesh Krishnaswamy | 345ee99 | 2012-12-13 20:29:48 -0800 | [diff] [blame^] | 1 | One of Floodlight's main goals is extensibility and flexibility. |
| 2 | |
| 3 | To prove that point, this directory includes a number of useful |
| 4 | utilities as examples of what can do with this extensibility. |
| 5 | |
| 6 | UTILITIES: |
| 7 | -------------------------- |
| 8 | |
| 9 | graphDeps.py and graphTopo.py |
| 10 | |
| 11 | Read the module dependencies (graphDeps.py) or the topology |
| 12 | from the REST API and output it in the 'dot' format used by the |
| 13 | popular graphviz (www.graphviz.org) package so that they can |
| 14 | be visualized. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Example usage: |
| 17 | ./graphTopo.py $hostname # generate .dot file |
| 18 | dot -Tpdf -o $hostname.pdf $hostname.dot # convert to PDF |
| 19 | open $hostname.pdf # open to view topology |
| 20 | |
| 21 | |
| 22 | |
| 23 | packetStreamerClientExample.py |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Example client for the packet streamer server in floodlight. |
| 26 | Allows you to intercept packets from floodlight's packet_in |
| 27 | processing chain and read them. |
