How to open each mininet node in terminator

I tried first opening terminator then executing mininet as sudo, but I couldn't create new sessions within terminator for each mininet node in the topology.

script -f MININET_NODE_TTY after xterm h1 won't work as well because the output of ip -ais the same from the original bash session, so I can't properly ping nodes.

Solution

  • Use 

    sudo mnexec -a [PID] bash

    for each host PID in the dump mininet CLI command.
