OFTest Documentation
This test framework is meant to exercise a candidate OpenFlow
switch (the device/switch under test, DUT or SUT). It provides a
connection like a controller to which the switch connects and it
controls data plane ports, sending and receiving packets, which
should be connected to the switch.
There are two parts to running the test framework:
- Building the python libraries that support the OF protocol
- Running oft, the main entry point of the test framework
Normally log output from oft is sent to the file oft.log, but
can be redirected to the console by specifying --log-file="".
