实验3：OpenFlow协议分析实践
一、实验目的
- 能够运用 wireshark 对 OpenFlow 协议数据交互过程进行抓包；
- 能够借助包解析工具，分析与解释 OpenFlow协议的数据包交互过程与机制。
二、实验环境
- 下载虚拟机软件Oracle VisualBox；
- 在虚拟机中安装Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop amd64，并完整安装Mininet；
三、实验要求
（一）基本要求
- 搭建下图所示拓扑，完成相关 IP 配置，并实现主机与主机之间的 IP 通信。用抓包软件获取控制器与交换机之间的通信数据包。
- 查看抓包结果，分析OpenFlow协议中交换机与控制器的消息交互过程，画出相关交互图或流程图。

抓包结果
HELLO
可以看到控制器向交换机发送的HELLO
也有交换机向控制器发送的HELLO
FEATURE_REQUEST
从控制器向交换机发送的请求
SET_CONFIG
从控制器到交换机
PORT_STATUS
从交换机到控制器
FEATURES_REPLAY
从交换机到控制器
PACKET_IN
从交换机到控制器
PACKET_OUT
从控制器到交换机
FLOW_MOD
从控制器到交换机
问题回答
- 回答问题：交换机与控制器建立通信时是使用TCP协议还是UDP协议？
由红线部分可知，是TCP协议
（二）进阶要求
将抓包结果对照OpenFlow源码，了解OpenFlow主要消息类型对应的数据结构定义。
1. HELLO

uint8_t type; /* One of the OFPT_ constants. */

Replies use the same id as was in the request
to facilitate pairing. */

send to the controller. */

struct ofp_port_status {
struct ofp_header header;
uint8_t reason; /* One of OFPPR_*. */

is inferred from the length field in
the header. */
};
/* Description of a physical port */

uint8_t reason; /* Reason packet is being sent (one of OFPR_*) */
uint8_t pad;
uint8_t data[0]; /* Ethernet frame, halfway through 32-bit word,
so the IP header is 32-bit aligned. The
amount of data is inferred from the length
field in the header. Because of padding,
offsetof(struct ofp_packet_in, data) ==
sizeof(struct ofp_packet_in) - 2. */
};
7. PORT_OUT
struct ofp_packet_out {
struct ofp_header header;
uint32_t buffer_id; /* ID assigned by datapath (-1 if none). */
uint16_t in_port; /* Packet's input port (OFPP_NONE if none). */
uint16_t actions_len; /* Size of action array in bytes. */
struct ofp_action_header actions[0]; /* Actions. */
/* uint8_t data[0]; */ /* Packet data. The length is inferred

实验总结
遇到的问题和解决方法
一开始做的时候忘记了去ping一下，缺了一个FLOW_MOD不知道怎么抓出来，好在后来发现了。
交换机里面的OpenFLow版本实际上是1.5的，如图所示
个人感想
这次的实验进阶要求和以往有些不一样，是去阅读源码并且对照着看。实际上阅读源码是学习协议一种相当好的方式，只是以前的时候由于我们的知识储备不够我们去理解，所以大多数是靠老师手把手教（包括网课）。这次实验通过阅读源码感觉自己对于openflow协议的机制也有了更加深刻的了解，这些协议的背后往往是数据结构构成的，协议对于我们来说也不再是之前的会用就行。这次对于wireshark这个工具也更加熟悉了，相信以后这部分知识可以迁移到其他协议的抓包上去。
