Quickstart

Important: the following scripts have been tested on a Mininet 2.2.1 VM with Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit

1. First of all you need to pull the git submodules for onos-bmv2 (ONOS fork of BMv2) and p4c-bmv2 (P4 compiler for BMv2):

    git submodule update --init --recursive
   

2. Follow the instructions inside the respective submodules to build and install onos-bmv2 and p4c-bmv2, or use the following command to do it in one shot (it might take a while to build everything):

    ./build_all.sh
   

3. To make your development experience more pleasant, we suggest you to also include the following line in your .bash_profile:

    source /path/to/onos-p4-dev/tools/bash_profile
