This page is for keeping track of the setup of the VM that is going to be used for the Tutorial. These instructions are for !VirtualBox 4.08. In order to make the VM more usable, installed the Guest Additions (Devices -> Install Guest Additions). = Installing Omni = To install Omni, just follow the instruction at [http://trac.gpolab.bbn.com/gcf/wiki/QuickStart Omni Quick Start]. In more detail, install the following packages {{{ sudo apt-get install python-m2crypto python-dateutil \ python-pyopenssl libxmlsec1 xmlsec1 \ libxmlsec1-openssl libxmlsec1-dev }}} Download release gcf1.3 from http://www.gpolab.bbn.com/local-sw/ under /usr/local/geni/ and untar it. {{{ tar xvfz gcf-1.3.tar.gz \rm gcf-1.3.tar.gz ln -s gcf-1.3/ gcf }}} Also placed files [attachment:gcf.ini] and [attachment:omni.ini], in the home dir of the GENI user. = Installing NOX = Downloaded the VM with Omni installed. Then followed the instructions from [http://noxrepo.org/noxwiki/index.php/NOX_Installation here.] {{{ cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d sudo wget http://openflowswitch.org/downloads/debian/nox.list sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nox-dependencies }}} Since nox-dependencies is not a common package, just to keep track of which packages are installed, these are the packages included in nox-dependencies : {{{ > dpkg --info nox-dependencies.deb new debian package, version 2.0. size 788 bytes: control archive= 491 bytes. 511 bytes, 9 lines control 499 bytes, 9 lines control~ Package: nox-dependencies Version: 0.1 Architecture: all Depends: doxygen, doxypy, build-essential, python-dev, autoconf, automake, make, g++, libtool, python-twisted, python-dev, swig, libssl-dev, libboost-dev (>= 1.34.1), libboost-test-dev, libboost-filesystem-dev Suggests: git-core, libsqilte3-dev, python-simplejson Maintainer: KK Yap [yapkke@stanford.edu] Description: This package installs the dependencies needed for NOX to be built from source. There is no actual content in this package. }}} After the dependencies are installed {{{ cd git clone git://noxrepo.org/nox cd nox ./boot.sh cd ../ mkdir nox_build cd nox_build ../nox/configure make -j 5 }}} To verify that the install was successful {{{ ./nox_core -h }}}
