Description
...
The module is not enabled by default. It must be added to the configuration file and Floodlight must be restarted in order for it to be loaded. A sample configuration file is posted below. The module is called "VirtualNetworkFilter". The default configuration file used for this is in src/main/resources/quantum.properties.

# The default configuration for openstack floodlight.modules = net.floodlightcontroller.storage.memory.MemoryStorageSource,\ net.floodlightcontroller.staticflowentry.StaticFlowEntryPusherStaticEntryPusher,\ net.floodlightcontroller.forwarding.Forwarding,\ net.floodlightcontroller.jython.JythonDebugInterface,\ net.floodlightcontroller.counter.CounterStore,\ net.floodlightcontroller.perfmon.PktInProcessingTime,\ net.floodlightcontroller.ui.web.StaticWebRoutable,\ net.floodlightcontroller.virtualnetwork.VirtualNetworkFilter net.floodlightcontroller.restserver.RestApiServer.port = 8080 net.floodlightcontroller.core.FloodlightProvider.openflowport = 66336653 net.floodlightcontroller.jython.JythonDebugInterface.port = 6655 |

If you are using the Floodlight VM the configuration file is already on the machine. Simply execute these commands to enable it.
