a) Basic requirements
1. Topology file
2.wireshark capture packet
Hello
Controller port 6633 (I can support OpenFlow 1.0 at most) ---> Switch port 33372 (Because I closed the window at that time, the switch port number changes when I run it again, this picture is after closing the window)
Switch port 33372 (I can support OpenFlow 1.5 at most) ---> Controller port 6633
So the two sides establish a connection and use OpenFlow 1.0
·Features Request
Controller port 6633 (I need your characteristic information) ---> Switch port 33372
·Set Conig
Controller port 6633 (please configure it according to the flag and max bytes of packet I gave you) ---> Switch port 33372
·Port Status
When the switch port changes, inform the controller of the corresponding port status.
``
·Features Reply
Switch port 33372 (this is my characteristic information, please check) ---> Controller port 6633
·Packet_in
Switch port 33372 (there are packets coming in, please indicate) --- Controller port 6633
·Flow_mod
After analyzing the captured flow_mod data packets, the controller sends flow entries to the switch port 33372 through port 6633 to guide data forwarding processing
·Packet_out
Controller port 6633 (please follow the action I gave you) ---> Switch port 33372

(2) Advanced requirements
Compare the packet capture results in step 2 of the basic requirements of packet capture with the OpenFlow source code.

Personal summary
1. When viewing the Hello packet, you must first capture the packet and then establish the topology
2. The data packets of Flow_mod will appear after pingall and will be captured by wireshark tool
3. It is found that the source code of the Features Request cannot be found. After comparing the packet capture information, it is found that the format is exactly the same as that of hello, so the source code is the same
4. Understand the message interaction process between the switch and the controller in the OpenFlow protocol, and understand what the information after wireshark captures roughly represents
5. Through this experiment, learn how to use wireshark to capture packets in the data interaction process of OpenFlow protocol; and analyze and interpret the data packet interaction process and mechanism of OpenFlow protocol with the help of packet analysis tools. In general, the experiment is not difficult, there are too many data packets interacting, and it is dizzy to watch.
