Hi Holly, AFAIK, the page is up-to-date. You have 3 options if you want to try slicing with NOX. 1) Use the FlowVisor. There is a version that supports slicing there. 2) Use the OpenFlow message event in NOX, that passes up all OpenFlow messages in NOX. Yes, this is ugly. The event is more geared for those who want to handle raw messages. 3) Port slicing into NOX and we would be glad to take a patch.
I personally prefer the third solution for selfish reasons, but options one and two are definitely workable. Option one is what we used to test slicing in our network before release. Hope this is helpful.
