Dear Murphy!
The problem is solved by including both the openflow.discovery and poxdesk.tinytopo in the command line. Thanks alot for help. Regards!

They're just debug messages. I then also included "openflow.discovery" component in the command. And then ran the following topology from inside the POXDesk Terminal window: sudo mn --controller remote --mac --topo linear,3 But the TopoViewer is still blank and not displaying anything. However the other windows like TableViewer etc. are working fine. Make sure you're also running the tinytopo component if you want the topo viewer to work. -- Murphy Subject: Re: POXDesk Terminal is Unable to Connect From: murphy.mccau...@gmail.com Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2014 12:22:25 -0800 CC: pox-dev@lists.noxrepo.org To: u_r_wel...@hotmail.com I expect that problem is that tinytopo requires the openflow.discovery module (and I would imagine there are errors in the POX log which would indicate this?). -- Murphy On Feb 7, 2014, at 2:44 AM, Rizwan Jamil <u_r_wel...@hotmail.com> wrote:Dear Murphy! The POXDesk Terminal problem is solved by appending "poxdesk.terminal" at the end of the command, as per your suggestion. Thanks alot for that. But another problem is that the TopoViewer window in POXDesk was and is still blank and does not show the diagram of topology created whether in POXDesk terminal window or in the normal VM terminal window. I have tried by appending "poxdesk.tinytopo" at the end of the mentioned command (just like appending "poxdesk.terminal"), but no success. Any suggestion(s)?

I am not even sure how you're viewing POXDesk at all given the commandline you're using. You probably need to run at least the web, messenger, messenger.ajax_transport and poxdesk components for poxdesk.terminal to work. In short: start with the suggested commandline and *add* poxdesk.terminal:./pox.py samples.pretty_log web messenger messenger.log_service messenger.ajax_transport openflow.of_service poxdesk poxdesk.terminal -- Murphy On Feb 6, 2014, at 10:35 PM, Rizwan Jamil <u_r_wel...@hotmail.com> wrote:Dears!
