Lab 6 (FlowVisor)

• Flowvisor creates rich slices of network

resources and delegates control of each slice
to each slice to a different controller.

． a low bandwidth path via switch s2

． a high bandwidth path via switch s3
Controlled by flowvisor_lab1_upper

Controlled by flowvisor_lab1_lower

Run Diamond Topology

Start FlowVisor
Create Slices

Create Flowspaces for upper

Create Flowspaces for lower

Start flowvisor_lab1_upper controller Only s1, s2, and s4 can be seen

Start flowvisor_lab1_lower controller
Only s1, s3, and s4 can be seen
Test Connectivity h1 can ping h3

H2 can ping h4
