Hi Chandana, Assuming you need to send some file( very large) from hostA to hostB. As mininet creates actual linux instances, you can use netcat. simple steps: 1. get the large file into VM or to the OS where mininet is running. 2. > xterm hostA, you will get a terminal for hostA(assuming it as server) type in the terminal 'nc -l 5678 > /dev/null'. i.e hostA is listening on port 5678. 3 > xterm hostB, you will get a terminal for hostB(assuming it as client sending file) type in 'nc <ip address of hostA> <port no- here it is 5678> < filename'
4. optionally use time command along with it, if you want to check time for file transfer in client side. regards, basavesh On Fri, May 3, 2013 at 2:49 AM, Chandana Pathapatti <chandana....@gmail.com>wrote: > Hello, > > Is there any way alternative to iperf, to generate traffic in a oepnflow > based topology, where, the controller is a load balancer.
