Hello
How do I execute it with only TCP? When i give h1 ping h2 in Mininet without the remote POX controller it executes and gives the following output. mn *** Creating network *** Adding controller *** Adding hosts: h1 h2 *** Adding switches: s1 *** Adding links: (h1, s1) (h2, s1) *** Configuring hosts h1 h2 *** Starting controller *** Starting 1 switches s1 *** Starting CLI: mininet> h1 ping h2 PING 10.0.0.2 (10.0.0.2) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=2.71 ms 64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.202 ms But when I run with POX controller why doesn't it ping?
