Yea, did that. and that error is no more showing up. There is no error now,
but still I do not get any stats reply from the switch, I have no idea why.
Do you see some error in the code? I guess the stats_request itself isn't
going till the switch, but dont know why.
The modified code is now:
*from nox.lib.core import *
import nox.lib.pyopenflow as of
from nox.netapps.monitoring.monitoring import Monitoring
from twisted.python import log
import logging
log = logging.getLogger('nox.coreapps.examples.mymonitor')
#global mymonitor instance
#inst=None
#for handling the flow stats in
def flow_stats_in_handler(dpid, flows, more, xid):*
* print "---------Flow stats report----------"
print str(dpid)+" "+str(flows)
for i in flows:
print flows[i]
class MyMonitor(Component):
def __init__(self, ctxt):
#global inst
Component.__init__(self, ctxt)
self.ctxt = ctxt
log.info("Reached the first chkpoint.")
self.Monitoring =
ctxt.resolve("nox.netapps.monitoring.monitoring.Monitoring")
log.info("I have come till second chkpoint")
def install(self):
log.info("inside install")*
* self.register_for_flow_stats_in(flow_stats_in_handler)
def getInterface(self):
log.info("inside interface")
return str(MyMonitor)
#for sending flow stats request
def send_flow_stats_request():
global xid
flows = of.ofp_match()
flows.wildcards = of.OFPFW_ALL
self.Monitoring.send_flow_stats_request(dpid, flows, 0xff, xid)
xid += 1
def getFactory():
class Factory:
def instance(self, ctxt):
return MyMonitor(ctxt)
return Factory()*
