One of Floodlight's main goals is extensibility and flexibility.

To prove that point, this directory includes a number of useful
utilities as examples of what can do with this extensibility.

UTILITIES:
--------------------------

graphDeps.py and graphTopo.py

    Read the module dependencies (graphDeps.py) or the topology
    from the REST API and output it in the 'dot' format used by the
    popular graphviz (www.graphviz.org) package so that they can
    be visualized.

    Example usage:
        ./graphTopo.py $hostname                    # generate .dot file
        dot -Tpdf -o $hostname.pdf $hostname.dot    # convert to PDF
        open $hostname.pdf                          # open to view topology
        


packetStreamerClientExample.py

    Example client for the packet streamer server in floodlight.
    Allows you to intercept packets from floodlight's packet_in
    processing chain and read them.
