ICN-Stage

ICN-Stage is an open plataform for orchestrating fault-tolerant ICN experimental evaluations.

Install

You can install ICN-stage in your machine: sh ./install.sh -s

However, we strongly suggest you use a Vagrant + VirtualBox based VM, which contains a Mininet testbed for developing purposes.

1. Configure you VM (this step may take ~2 hours)

   local-host$ vagrant up 

2. login in the VM

   local-host$ vagrant ssh 

Run CLI

1. You can manually operate ICN-Stage using its CLI.

   vagrant@ubuntu-bionic:~/icn-stage$ ./icn-stage.py

   

2. In this case, you may want to run the Mininet in another terminal.

   local-host$ vagrant ssh 
   vagrant@ubuntu-bionic:~/icn-stage$ sudo mn --nat --topo linear,3

Run a play

1. You can run a play using Mininet

   vagrant@ubuntu-bionic:~/icn-stage$ sudo ./play_mininet_perf.py

2. If you have access to FIBRE, you can run

   vagrant@ubuntu-bionic:~/icn-stage$ sudo ./play_fibre_ndn.py

Plot results

1. Plot previosly generated results obtained from play_mininet_perf.py

   vagrant$ python3 plot.py --type iperf --out plot_mn_iperf --xlim 600 --ylim 1.0 results_acm_icn/results_*

   

2. Plot previosly generated results obtained from play_fibre_ndn.py

   vagrant$ python3 plot.py --type ndn --out plot_fibre_ndn --xlim 600 --ylim 10 results_acm_icn/ndn-traffic_results_*
