Hi All,

I am new to nox controller and need some clarifications.
First doubt is regarding authenticator.

In nox.cc code we have:

void Handshake_fsm::check_switch_auth() {
Switch_Auth* auth = nox::get_switch_auth(); if(!auth) { lg.dbg("No switch auth module registered, auto-approving switch\n"); switch_approved = true; state = REGISTER_SWITCH; run(); return; }

Does this mean that switches are always auto-authenticated? How about hosts? Are they also auto-authenticated?


Under that default configuration, yes, switches are always auto-authenticated. If you want to change this behaviour, you can register a Switch_Auth object with the Handshake_fsm. Hosts are automatically allowed on the network as well.

Second doubt is regarding PYRT that loads description files etc. I have not been able to trace the function in nox_main.cc or nox.cc calling PYRT?

pyrt is just another component so is loaded via the dso-deployer in src/builtin/
