No. The situation is as I described -- the routing module is really more like a network-wide L2 switch than anything else. It's possible to implement some L3 routing functionality in NOX as Srini mentions in the referenced email. However, there's at least one thing that IP routers do which

pyswitch is intended to be a very simple demo and does something along the lines of making each switch in the network a standalone L2 learning switch. Each switch gets no insight about the topology from its neighbors. routing actually uses a global view of the topology, and can just generate

I'm wondering what's the different between routing module and pyswitch module? I can find from wiki that routing is basically a forwarding module. but what about pyswitch? Because after i connected 3 openvswitchs(like this:host1 -- ovs1 -- ovs2 -- ovs3 --host2),i firstly ran pyswitch
