Forked version of mininet with Docker node support
310
Please be advised that this is a fork version from original Mininet. This version includes integration with Docker to allow having Docker Nodes inside Mininet. You can also run Mininet as Docker, and then you can have a Docker-in-Docker scenario.
More information: https://github.com/italovalcy/mininet
Exemple running in interactive mode:
docker run --privileged -it --rm \
-v $(pwd)/docker:/var/lib/docker \
-v /lib/modules:/lib/modules \
italovalcy/mininet-dind:latest /bin/bash
Then once the container starts, you can run your mininet scenario with docker nodes, for instance this Linear,3 topology below where hosts are docker nodes:
# mn --topo=linear,3 --host=docker,image=alpine:latest,volume=/tmp/xpto:/tmp/xpto,volume=/tmp/foobar:/tmp/foobar,env=DATA=FoobarXpto,env=DATA2="algo diferente"
