# To run POX controller enter into pox directory (pwd = /home/pox/pox)
# Then execute the following command:
./pox.py log.level --DEBUG misc.diamond_controller
# It is important to know that in line 11 of the controller there is a dictionary mapping switch numbers to their dpids.
# This might have to be manually changed, depending on the switches connected to the controller.
# When controller establishes connection with a switch it writes out message containing switch's dpid.


# To run topology in mininet enter into mininet directory (pwd = /home/pox/mininet)
# Then execute the following command:
sudo python3 ./custom/run_topology.py
# The code in run_topology file, in addition to creating the topology, disables ipv6 on hosts and switches.
# This is important, as ipv6 generates unnecessary traffic, and also would require additional changes in pox source files.
