   ./configure --enable-vtysh --enable-user=root --enable-group=root --enable-vty-group=root
   make install

   cd ./iproute2-4.9.0
   apt-get install bison flex
   make
   make install

   pip install mako ipaddress ipmininet --no-deps

6. Run Environment

   sudo python topo.py

Usage Guide

In file topo.py:

You can define topology by adding Host/Router and adding Links.

Use build_dx4_tunnel to build a DX4 Tunnel Use build_dx6_tunnel to build a DX6 Tunnel Use RouterConfiguration to Initialize a Router to SRv6 Router.

For manual configuration

For manual configuration, run dx4_r1.sh on R1 and dx4_r3 on R3

Mininet Simple tutorial

After running sudo python topo.py, you will be promoted to a Mininet shell.

Run "xterm " to go to the destinated host shell

For example, xterm R1 will give you access to R1 shell.
