Installation Instructions
1. Prerequisites
#!bash
sudo apt-get install autoconf automake libtool linux-libc-dev libc6-dev clang libboost-all-dev tcpreplay
#!bash mkdir benchmark cd benchmark
2. Clone Benchmark
#!bash
git clone https://bitbucket.org/bitnsg/switch-benchmark.git
3. Install ROFL version 0.4.1
#!bash git clone https://github.com/bisdn/rofl-common.git cd rofl-common git checkout 1f1c97f git apply ../switch-benchmark/rofl_patch.patch
FOLLOW README:
If necessary change configure.ac:
#!bash -AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([-Wall -Werror foreign]) +AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([-Wall foreign])
Install:
#!bash ./autogen.sh cd build ../configure make sudo make install sudo ldconfig cd ../../
4. Install Benchmark
The benchmark supports OpenFlow versions 1.0 and 1.3. Changing the current OpenFlow version requires recompilation.
First set the desired version in switch-benchmark/of_version.h.
Choose either
#!bash namespace ofproto = rofl::openflow10;
or
#!bash namespace ofproto = rofl::openflow13;
Now compile the benchmark:
#!bash cd switch-benchmark make -j cd ..
5. Install PyPacker
#!bash git clone https://github.com/mike01/pypacker.git cd pypacker sudo python3 setup.py install cd ..
6. Run the Benchmark
