    54== Overview: ==
    65This is a simple OpenFlow tutorial that will guide you through the writing of simple !OpenFlow controllers to showcase some of the !OpenFlow capabilities. We are going to write three different controllers:
    76  1. Write a controller that will '''duplicate all the traffic''' of the !OpenFlow switch out a specific port
    8   2. ''' TCP Port Forward''' controller. Diverge all traffic destined to host A on TCP port X to TCP port Y
    9   3. '''Proxy Controller'''. Write a controller that will diverge all traffic destined to host A, TCP port X to host B, TCP port Y
     7  2. ''' TCP Port Forward''' controller. Divert all traffic destined to host A on TCP port X to TCP port Y
     8  3. '''Proxy Controller'''. Write a controller that will divert all traffic destined to host A, TCP port X to host B, TCP port Y

    11 In this tutorial we are going to use [http://openvswitch.org/ Open vSwitch (OVS)] as an !OpenFlow switch connected to three hosts.
    12 OVS is a software switch running on a compute resource. The other three hosts can only communicate through the OVS switch. The controller for the switch can run anywhere in the Internet.
    13 For this tutorial we are going to use the [http://www.noxrepo.org/pox/about-pox/ POX controller], this is just an example of [wiki:OpenFlow/Controllers many controllers].
     10In this tutorial we have a choice of using an '''''!OpenFlow Software Switch''''', [http://openvswitch.org/ Open vSwitch (OVS)], or using an '''''!OpenFlow-Capable Hardware Switch'''''.  The general topology is as pictured below. In general, the controller just needs to have a public IP address, so that it can exchange messages with the !OpenFlow switch. The controller for the switch can run anywhere in the Internet.
     11For this tutorial we are going to use a [http://www.noxrepo.org/pox/about-pox/ POX based controller], this is just an example of [wiki:OpenFlow/Controllers many controllers].
