Hi all:
I am currently planning to work my NOX controller on my real machine not on the virtual machine. And I am a little bit confused by the OpenFlow_Tutorial.vdi.

In my opinion, this OpenFlow tutorial provides us with multiple softwares and controllers, does it?

In the home directory it contains many folders? I know the use of most of the floders(e.g NOX, Mininet, OpenVswitch, Oflops..). But what the openflow folder  is used for? I am confused with it.

You may read the 'openflow/README' to know what it is used for. In short, it's another  OpenFlow switch.
What's here?
------------

This distribution includes one reference implementations of an
OpenFlow switch.

Can I run the NOX controller and Mininet normally in my host without involving the OpenFlow folder?

Thanks very much.

Weiyang Mo
