How to use Mininet in GUI version?


I'm new in networking and passionate in learning more about SDN and OpenFlow Network. After some searching on the internet, I've found that there's an emulator software called "Mininet". I hear that this software supports simulation of switch better than GNS3. Now, my problem is where can I use Mininet in GUI?

Thanks :)


Solution

  • There is no GUI actually in mininet. Mininet emulates network and you use commands through terminal and mininet terminal environment.

    The only GUI I know on mininet is miniedit to create topology via a graphic environment instead of writing a python script.
