You should ask this on mininet-discuss and not nox-dev; briefly, trying to "set an IP address on a switch" is not meaningful on mininet unless you are using a routed control network, which you need to set up correctly (which you are currently not doing, because you are putting it on the openflow-controlled data network.)
