If you are Linux-savvy and wish to take on the challenge of installing
|
||||
Mininet and its dependencies from scratch, the requirements are described
|
||||
below.
|
||||
Once you have booted up the VM image, all you need to do to install
|
||||
Mininet is:
|
||||
|
||||
git clone git@yuba.stanford.edu:mininet.git
|
||||
cd mininet
|
||||
sudo make install
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, it should be possible to run a simple Mininet configuration
|
||||
from the command line:
|
||||
|
||||
sudo mn
|
||||
|
||||
As an alternative, if you are Linux-savvy, do not wish to use the VM
|
||||
image, and wish to take on the challenge of installing Mininet and its
|
||||
dependencies from scratch, the requirements are described below.
