[[Include(WikiToC)]] == Setting up a Virtual / Simulated Optical Network using the Mininet-Optical Software Emulator == This wiki page contains a tutorial for setting up a virtual/simulated optical network using Mininet-Optical. [https://mininet-optical.org Mininet-Optical] was developed as part of the COSMOS and COSM-IC projects and adds optical network emulation and simulation capabilities to [https://mininet.org Mininet] to support software emulation of optical and packet-optical networks, including modeling of optical transmission effects and impairments. This is a Mininet-Optical version of the tutorial at [wiki:Tutorials/Optical/Tutorial1] and is intended to show how an experiment designed for COSMOS' optical network testbed (hardware) may be adapted for use in a software emulation environment running on Linux (for example in a VM on a laptop or other hardware server), and how Mininet-Optical may be used to design experiments that will later be run on the COSMOS hardware testbed. The Mininet-Optical version of this tutorial implements the same network topology and the same experiment as the hardware testbed tutorial, but there are differences between the software and hardware environments. Please refer to [wiki:Tutorials/Optical/Tutorial1] for comparison with the hardware environment.

Similarly, Mininet-Optical enables creation of virtual optical networks using software emulation. An example of how an optical network could be configured and used is provided. A simple experiment on switching of optical paths is described. ---- = Compute Nodes and ToR switch interfaces used = * Each compute node has 1 Ethernet interface: {{{ server1-eth0 server2-eth0 server2-eth0 }}} * There are three ToR Ethernet interfaces: {{{ tor1-eth111 tor2-eth112 tor3-eth113 }}} * and three WDM transceivers, with separate output and input ports: {{{ tor1-wdm320/321 tor2-wdm290/291 tor3-wdm310/311 }}} ---- = Experiment_1 Context = || [[Image(Experiment_1.png, width=500px)]] || Fig.1 Logical Topology of Experiment_1 The experiment consists of changing the light path from ToR1<-->ToR2 to ToR1<-->ToR3, representing changing of the light path in a C-RAN when “Client” wants to move its base-band processing from “Edge Cloud” to “Central Cloud”. Experiment includes 3 servers: {{{ server1 server2 server3 }}} Experiment includes 4 ROADMs: {{{ roadm1 (localhost:1831) roadm2 (localhost:1832) roadm3 (localhost:1833) roadm4 (localhost:1844) }}} 3 ToR interfaces are connected to the 3 servers: {{{ tor1-eth111 <--> server1 tor2-eth112 <--> server2 tor3-eth113 <--> server3 }}} 3 Ethernet interfaces and 3 WDM transceivers will be connected within the ToR switch: {{{ tor1-eth111 ; tor1-wdm320/321 (output/input) tor2-eth112 ; tor2-wdm290/291 (output/input) tor3-eth113 ; tor3-wdm310/311 (output/input) }}} We are assigning the following wavelength to the transceivers: {{{ 1553.30 nm 193.00 THz with bandwidth ~[192.95;193.05] THz This corresponds to channel 34 in Mininet-Optical's default channel grid. }}} ---- = Prerequisites: Installing Mininet-Optical = Before starting this tutorial, you will need to have Mininet-Optical installed. If it isn't installed already, you can follow the Installation and Walkthrough instructions at https://mininet-optical.org. The tutorial topology and a sample configuration script should be found in `~/mininet-optical/examples/cosmostutorial.py` and `~/mininet-optical/examples/config-cosmostutorial.sh`. If they are not there, you may need to fetch and check out the appropriate `cosmos-tutorial` branch from github and install it using `make install`, as described below. ---- = Setting Up the Optical Topology = In the COSMOS optical testbed, all devices are connected to a Calient S320 space switch. This switch serves as a programmable patch panel that allows any port to be connected to any other port, enabling realization of arbitrary topologies with fast reconnection between experiments. It is possible to create a virtual space switch/programmable patch panel in Mininet-Optical to emulate the COSMOS optical testbed itself, but for this tutorial we will implement the topology using Mininet-Optical's topology API. The Mininet-Optical emulated network is created using a Python script, [https://github.com/Mininet-Optical/mininet-optical/blob/cosmos-tutorial/mnoptical/examples/cosmostutorial.py examples/cosmostutorial.py]. Take a look at it now to see how the topology is implemented. The topology itself is created using Mininet's high-level topology template API. Specifically, we create a subclass of class `Topo` and override the `build()` method: {{{#!python class TutorialTopo( Topo ): ... def build( self ): }}} ROADMs and ToR switches are added using `addSwitch()` calls: {{{#!python # ROADMs NC = NetconfPortBase roadm4 = self.addSwitch('roadm4', cls=LROADM, netconfPort=NC+4) ... # ToR switches tor1 = self.addSwitch('tor1', cls=Terminal, transceivers=[('32', 0*dBm)]) ... }}} Servers are added using `addHost()` calls: {{{#!python # Servers server1 = self.addHost('server1') ... }}} In Mininet, ports are created by specifying port numbers when we add links. (This is due to the underlying link emulation which uses Linux virtual Ethernet (`veth`) pairs.) Because of this, we need to specify the correct port numbers when we create the links. The base port numbers for a Lumentum ROADM20 are specified at the top of the file: {{{#!python # Lumentum Roadm20 Port numbering LINEIN, LINEOUT = 5101, 4201 ADD, DROP = 4100, 5200 }}} The server and ToR port numbers are as specified above. WDM fiber links are unidirectional and are added using `wdmLink()` calls: {{{#!python # Inter-ROADM links # We put 22km of fiber between roadm2 and roadm3 # Default fiber length is 1m if not specified self.wdmLink(roadm4, roadm1, LINEOUT, LINEIN) self.wdmLink(roadm1, roadm4, LINEOUT, LINEIN) self.wdmLink(roadm1, roadm2, DROP+1, ADD+1) # passthrough self.wdmLink(roadm2, roadm1, DROP+1, ADD+1) # passthrough # Sub-millisecond delays won't be accurate (due to scheduler timing # granularity and running in a VM) but this will add observable # propagation delay for the longer links. self.wdmLink(roadm2, roadm3, LINEOUT, LINEIN, spans=[22*km], delay='73us') self.wdmLink(roadm3, roadm2, LINEOUT, LINEIN, spans=[22*km], delay='73us') ... # ROADM add/drop 2 <-> ToR transceiver links self.wdmLink(tor1, roadm4, 320, ADD+2) self.wdmLink(roadm4, tor1, DROP+2, 321) }}} We can see that `LINEOUT` of `roadm2` is connected to `LINEIN` of `roadm3` and vice-versa, with a 22km length of fiber in between, corresponding to a fiber spool in the COSMOS testbed. Later, add/drop port 2 of `roadm4` is connected to ports 320/321 of `tor1` (output/input, respectively). Ethernet links are added using `addLink()` calls: {{{#!python # Server<->ToR Ethernet links self.addLink(server1, tor1, port1=0, port2=1) self.addLink(server2, tor2, port1=0, port2=2) self.addLink(server3, tor3, port1=0, port2=3) }}} Lastly, the topology and network objects are instantiated and everything is started up (and shut down) in the `__main__` section of the network setup script: {{{#!python if __name__ == '__main__': ... topo = TutorialTopo() net = Mininet( topo=topo, controller=None ) restServer = RestServer( net ) net.start() restServer.start() netconfServer = NetconfServer( net, username=username, password=password, sslkeyfile=sslkeyfile ) netconfServer.start() ... if 'test' in argv: test(net) else: info(TutorialTopo.__doc__+'\n') CLI(net) netconfServer.stop() restServer.stop() net.stop() info( 'Done.\n') }}} = Creating the Mininet-Optical Network = All of these commands should be run in a terminal window for the VM or server where Mininet-Optical is installed. We will run Mininet-Optical from the top directory of the source tree: {{{ cd ~/mininet-optical }}} We should check to make sure that the tutorial scripts are present: {{{ ls examples/cosmostutorial.py ls examples/config-cosmostutorial.sh }}} If they are missing, we can fetch and install the appropriate branch: {{{ git fetch git checkout cosmos-tutorial make install }}} Since the NETCONF agents for the ROADMs use SSL, we first have to generate a set of (self-signed) SSL certificates for them to use: {{{ make certs }}} Now we should be able to run the tutorial script to create the emulated network: {{{ sudo examples/cosmostutorial.py }}} (Note: if you want to use the X11 features of Mininet, such as the `xterm` or `plot` commands, you may need to use `sudo HOME=~` rather than just `sudo`.) This should start up Mininet-Optical, create the tutorial network, and start the CLI: {{{ COSM-IC mini-tutorial topology: roadm4 <-> roadm1 <-> roadm2 <-22km-> roadm3 | | | tor1 tor2 tor3 | | | server1 server2 server3 This is for the COSMOS mini-tutorial at: https://wiki.cosmos-lab.org/wiki/Tutorials/Optical/MininetOpticalTutorial1 *** Starting CLI: mininet-optical> }}} Mininet-Optical CLI commands may be entered at the `mininet-optical>` prompt. If you don't have one open already, open up another terminal window and connect to the Linux VM or server where Mininet-Optical is installed. You may wish to enter the source directory in this window as well: {{{ cd ~/mininet-optical }}} Unless specified otherwise, all of the configuration commands below should be entered in this second window at the shell prompt. = ROADM Configuration = All of these configurations can be performed by Python scripts developed to work with the COSMOS test-bed. The Python commands send NETCONF commands to the ROADM. == Setting “Snake” Connection == (This is not currently part of the Mininet-Optical software emulated configuration.) === Transceiver 33 (ports 330/331) on ToR configuration === (This is not currently part of the Mininet-Optical software emulated configuration, but it would be: 60 (DWDM Channel C60) 1529,55 nm 196,00 Thz with frequency range [195.95,196.05] Thz) === MUX/DEMUX configuration === As a reminder, here are the ROADM port numbers: * ROADM 4: DEMUX IN/OUT (ADD1/LINEOUT) port: 5101/5201 MUX IN/OUT (LINEIN/DROP1)port: 4101/4201 * ROADM 1: DEMUX IN/OUT (ADD1/LINEOUT) port: 5101/5201 MUX IN/OUT (LINEIN/DROP1) port: 4101/4201 * ROADM 2: DEMUX IN/OUT (ADD1/LINEOUT) port: 5101/5201 MUX IN/OUT (LINEIN/DROP1) port: 4101/4201 * ROADM 3: DEMUX IN/OUT (ADD1/LINEOUT) port: 5101/5201 MUX IN/OUT (LINEIN/DROP1) port: 4101/4201 Note that the servers are connected to ADD2/DROP2 while DROP1/ADD1 are used as passthrough ports between ROADM 1 and ROADM 2. Note also that these port numbers are different from what is on the hardware tutorial page but they are consistent with the configuration on that page. === ALS Disable Sequence (for 60 seconds) === (This is not currently done in the Mininet-Optical configuration.) == Configuring ROADMs in Mininet-Optical == ROADMs in Mininet-Optical may be configured via several mechanisms. An internal Python API may be used for configuration within the script that creates the network. More realistically, two external SDN/RPC control interfaces are provided: a simple REST interface and a more realistic NETCONF interface which is partially compatible with the NETCONF interface of the hardware Lumentum ROADM20. Note that the REST API is specific to Mininet-Optical and is not supported in the hardware testbed. For this tutorial, either the REST (simpler, but different from hardware) or NETCONF (more complicated but closer to the hardware testbed) may be used. == Setting “Experiment_1” Connections using REST == === Configuring ToR1<->ToR2 Connection 1 on Mininet-Optical using REST === * ROADM 4: 1.

C1's middle frequency is 191350 GHz, so C34 is at 191350 + 33*50 = 193000 GHz. We use `curl` to send a REST request to `roadm4` to add/drop channel 34: {{{ curl "localhost:8080/connect?node=roadm4&port1=4102&port2=4201&channels=34" curl "localhost:8080/connect?node=roadm4&port1=5101&port2=5202&channels=34" }}} * ROADM 1: 5.

(Note that the Mininet-Optical ROADM dataplane is currently modeled using OvS switching in the Linux kernel, so each hop will add some delay that would not be seen on hardware.
