  2. Demo slide 
  3. Demo poster
  4. Demo video

Requirements

This work basically requires

Ubuntu 18.04 with kernel version >= v4.14

Following software are also required:

Python 2.7

python-pip

mininet

Build ONOS

To build ONOS on your local machine, follow [this instruction](https://github.com/opennetworkinglab/onos#getting-started)

Provision emulator VM

Install p4tools

To properly install the p4Tools on your VM you will need to download and run this script: https://github.com/JonghwanHyun/onos/blob/master/tools/dev/p4vm/install-p4-tools.sh

$ onos-setup-p4-dev

Install BPFCollector

See BPFCollector

Add virtual interfaces for collector 

$ sudo ip link add veth_11 type veth peer name veth_12 
$ sudo ip link add veth_21 type veth peer name veth_22 
$ sudo ip link set dev veth_11 up 
$ sudo ip link set dev veth_12 up 
$ sudo ip link set dev veth_21 up 
$ sudo ip link set dev veth_22 up

How to run

  • Configure ONOS apps
$ ONOS_APPS=drivers.bmv2,proxyarp,lldpprovider,hostprovider buck run onos-local -- clean
  • Launch Mininet
$ sudo -E ~/onos/tools/test/topos/bmv2-demo-int.py --onos-ip=127.0.0.1 --pipeconf-id=org.onosproject.pipelines.int
  • Launch collector 
$ sudo systemctl start influxdb $ sudo python -E BPFCollector/InDBClient.py veth_22
  • Activate INT sample application 
$ onos-app localhost activate org.onosproject.inbandtelemetry
  • Add mirroring configuration for telemetry report
$ simple_switch_CLI --thrift-port `cat /tmp/bmv2-s12-thrift-port` 
RuntimeCmd: mirroring_add 500 5 (500: REPORT_MIRROR_SESSION_ID defined in int_definitions.p4) (5: port number to send mirrored packet, in this case veth_21)
  • Add host to host intent
$ onos localhost onos> add-host-intent 00:00:00:00:01:01/None 00:00:00:00:02:02/None

Since there is no forwarding or routing application enabled, we add routes between hosts manually.) (h11 and h22 in Mininet topology, respectively

  • Add collector configuration
  • Connect to ONOS web interface (http://localhost:8181/onos/ui/)
  • Open "In-band Telemetry Control" in the menu
  • Type 127.0.0.1 to "Collector IP" field and 54321 to "Collector Port" field
  • Click "Deploy" button
  • Add IntIntent to specify traffic to monitor
  • Go to "In-band Telemetry Control" page
  • Fill in "Src Address", "Dst Address", "Src Port", "Dst Port" and "Protocol" field
  • Src and Dst address fields accepts IP address with mask (e.g., 10.0.0.0/24)
  • Src and Dst port number requires exact port number
  • Protocol supports either TCP or UDP
  • Any field remained empty, except Protocol field, means wildcard.
  • Choose metadata to collect
  • **Switch Id** and **Egress timestamp** must be chosen so as to make Collecor to work properly.
  • "Queue congestion status" and "Egress Port Tx Utilization" are not supported in current version of BMv2 software switch.
  • Click "Deploy" button below the metadata to deploy INT Intent.
  • Created INT Intent will be appeared in the table below.
  • Generate some traffic to monitor
mininet> h11 iperf -c h22 -u -t 10000 -l 250B
  • Connect Grafana to see the collected data at http://localhost:3000
  • No labels
