Virtual Machine’s virtual interface IP address on host-only network: 192.168.56.101/24Īdd Network Adapter to Mininet virtual machine. So, we know that the IP address of the virtual interface connected to the host-only network on the virtual machine will be assigned that IP address.įor future use, note the following information: The DHCP server is enabled on the interface and we see that the Lower Address Bound is 192.168.56.101/24. In this case the default IP address used by VirtualBox for the first host-only adapter is 192.168.56.1/24. The default settings should be acceptable.Ĭheck the settings by clicking on the small “screwdriver” icon on the right side of the window to edit the adapter’s configuration. An adapter called vboxnet0 will be created. click on the small green “plus” sign on the right side of the window to add a new network adapter. Use the VirtualBox menu command: VirtualBox → Preferences.Ĭlick on the “Network” icon in the Preferences panel. You will need this so that the host computer can run remote X11 sessions on the virtual machine in the later steps. This creates a loopback interface on the host computer that can be used to connect the virtual machine to the host computer (or to other virtual machines). To use Mininet in the way recommended by the Mininet setup notes, you must create a “host only” network interface in VirtualBox. Click on the “Import” button.Īfter a few minutes, you will see the Mininet VM you imported in the VirtualBox window. Use the default settings, but you can change virtual machine’s name, if you want to. Then, click the “Continue” button to get to the Appliance Settings screen. Navigate to the folder containing the mininet-2.1. file and select it. In the next screen, click the “Open appliance” button. To import the Mininet virtual machine, use the VirtualBox menu command: File → Import Appliance Start the VirtualBox manager application on your host system. Next, create a version of the Mininet virtual machine that will run in VirtualBox by importing the Mininet virtual machine into the VirtualBox program Import the virtual machine into VirtualBox The folder will contain the following files: mininet-vm-x86_64.vmdk WIRESHARK XQUARTZ ARCHIVE
To decompress the archive, double-click on the mininet-2.1. file to automatically launch the archive application or use the following command in the terminal window: $ tar -xvf mininet-2.1. This file is a compressed ZIP archive containing two files so, after downloading it, decompress it and save the files to my hard drive. I chose the latest version available, which was mininet-2.1. Download the Mininet virtual machineĭownload the Mininet virtual machine (VM) from.
WIRESHARK XQUARTZ INSTALL
On a computer running Windows, you need to download and install the required SSH and X-server software (I recommend PuTTY and XMing). On the Linux desktop distributions, the SSH and X-server software are already available. See the Apple Support web sit for more details at. You must install the XQuartz X server from.
WIRESHARK XQUARTZ MAC OS X
The Mac OS X operating system comes with SSH software but does not come with an X server already installed.
I set up the Mininet virtual machine on my Apple iMac computer. For my own reference, and to help anyone else who will install Mininet, I list the procedure I followed in the post, below.
While I was following the procedure described in these notes, I found a few points where some more information would have been helpful.
WIRESHARK XQUARTZ HOW TO
The Mininet web site provides detailed setup notes, describing how to download and use the Mininet virtual machine. It is based on the Ubuntu Linux Server operating system and comes with all the software and tools required to support Mininet already installed. The easiest way to get started using the Mininet network simulator is to use the Mininet virtual machine.
