Check ARP requests in a network using mininet and tcpdump
Raw
checkARP.txt
$ sudo mn --topo single,3 --controller=remote,ip=<controller ip>,port=6633
(To make a topology with 1 switch, 1 remote controller and 3 hosts)
mininet> xterm h1 h2 h3
h2> tcpdump -XX -n -i h2-eth0 (run tcpdump to capture packets)
h3> tcpdump -XX -n -i h3-eth0
h1> ping -c1 10.0.0.2
(Do not do pingall before these. Otherwise you won't see the same ARP request on h2 and h3)
mininet> exit
