[pox-dev] Mac rewrite on POx, L3 topology

[lobna gouda]

I am creating a toplogy without using mininit, basically VM , OVS and POX
 as a controller on an ubunto desktop, I have 9 VM, and I am connecting 
them to the switch in a way that they connect to each other,  am trying 
to build a L3 topology, I made vlans numbers  as 12, 13,14,16 to connect
 R1 to R2,R3, R4 and R6 and followed the same scheme to the rest,  for 
example R2 has interfaces in vlan 12, 24, 26 and 28 to connect to R1, R4
 , R6 and R8 , so on to the rest...I can ping diretly connected router 
to each other since teach two routers are in the same Vlan.  Now I want 
to have R1 to ping R9,  I am kinda trying to build a routing 
table/forwrding or reachability in the network, similar to what isis 
will do for example, so I used L3 forwarding to rewrite the mac adrs, 
yet when i do the flow dump. I see the flow is going from R 1 to R9 
directly, they are pingable, but this isnot what I want, I want the flow
 to go hop by hop from R1 to R3 then R9?  or this cannot be acheived 
since the controller directs the flows?

Thanks to advise me







    R5---R6---- ---   R1-------R3----R9
