[pox-dev] Custom Switch Forwarding

[Savvas Zannettou]

Hi all!

I am new to the concept of Open-flow and Pox and i want to create a
"stupid" switch. My goal is that for the same destination to spread the
traffic across multiple links. For example in the below topology i want
Switch1 when it receives a packet,  to randomly forward the packet to
either the first link or the second. I saw the implementation of
l2.learning and i assume that i must change the method handle_packet_in to
achieve the described behavior. Am i right ? Also i saw the component
misc.ip_loadbalancer. Can this component help me achieve what i want? Is
there a better documentation for this component ( i saw it in
https://openflow.stanford.edu/display/ONL/POX+Wiki#POXWiki-misc.ip_loadbalancer
)
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks
Savvas
