The hope is that this will make the results a bit more consistent when running in a VM environment.

"""
|
|
Test bandwidth (using iperf) on linear networks of varying size,
|
|
using both kernel and user datapaths.
|
|
|
|
We construct a network of N hosts and N-1 switches, connected as follows:
|
|
|
|
h1 <-> s1 <-> s2 .. sN-1
|
|
| | |
|
|
h2 h3 hN
|
|
|
|
WARNING: by default, the reference controller only supports 16
|
|
switches, so this test WILL NOT WORK unless you have recompiled
|
|
your controller to support 100 switches (or more.)
|
|
|
|
In addition to testing the bandwidth across varying numbers
|
|
of switches, this example demonstrates:
|
|
|
|
- creating a custom topology, LinearTestTopo
|
|
- using the ping() and iperf() tests from Mininet()
|
|
- testing both the kernel and user switches
