[nox-dev] help: link_type
Hi~ alls,
I need to get all link_types of topo's jsonmsg, but i just find two of them
("all" & "sw2sw"). Is there some docs about it? I can't get any hint from
source code now ... Waiting for your help.

best regards

[nox-dev] FW: Help: LAVI and NOX's nox-gui.py
Hi~ alls, I used LAVI and nox-gui.py(another front-end as ENVI), and tested some cases with NOX and openvswitch, one switch links to one host, my cmd is "$ ./nox_core -v -i ptcp:6633 monitoring pyswitch lavi ", but there's no host icon and hs2sw link in nox-gui's view, just swicth icon. Could someone help me... --- thanks a lot ___ nox-dev mailing list nox-dev@noxrepo.org http://noxrepo.org/mailman/listinfo/nox-dev
Re: [nox-dev] FW: Help: LAVI and NOX's nox-gui.py
Hi~ kyr, Thanks a lot, yes, as your said, we need to add a component named "trackhost_pktin". --- regards tom Date: Fri, 2 Dec 2011 11:29:27 -0800 Subject: Re: [nox-dev] FW: Help: LAVI and NOX's nox-gui.py From: kyr.zari...@gmail.com To: switch@hotmail.com CC: nox-dev@noxrepo.org Oh, also, there is one component that is responsible for tracking host traffic, and that's what feeds the host information to LAVI and eventually to the GUI I can't remember if it is there as a dependency, so you might need to run that manually. I think the name is "trackhost_pktin" (can't check right now unfortunately). So maybe try adding that too after "monitoring" and "pyswitch" ?

[nox-dev] Component: hosttracker
Hi~ alls,
I found a component named "hosttracker" with source code, and it can handle
adding or removing of hosts.
But when I run it with nox_core($ ./nox_core -v -i ptcp:6633 monitoring
hosttracker), the front-end still can't receive the jsonmsg
as "{'node_type': 'host', 'command':'add/remove'}". What should i do???

I know the process of msg exchange,
back-end(jsonmsg)->view_interface(signal/slot)->GUI. But when I remove the
host, nox(with LAVI component) will send a jsonmsg including "node_type: host,
command: delete". Actually, it doesn't, so I'm confused.

"remove" means unplugging its network cable.
Frist, pls see the file "src/nox/netapps/lavi/lavi_hosts.cc", and it wraps the
jsonmsg with "add/delete", so I think that it should be sent a msg when the
host's removed. But I just get the msg as "{type: lavi, node type: host, node
id: XXX, command: add}" when the host's pinging the switch, and after
unplugging the host's network cable, I can't find a msg including "command:
delete". Is it my misunderstanding, or component's imperfection?

Ah, ok. So I'm not sure exactly how the logic that detects if a host has been
removed is implemented, as I didn't write this component. So I don't know when
the "delete" message is sent for hosts.
I could take a look and get back to you. The logic should be somewhere inside
LAVI/hosttracker, and it might be something along the lines of "if you haven't
heard any traffic from host, remove it, or 'if you hear traffic from host X on
port B, but X is registered on port A, remove it from A".
(for example - what do *you* mean when you say "when I remove the host? :). In
a physical environment, this can mean turning the machine off, or unplugging
its network cable, both of which events aren't easily detectable from the
network's perspective)
