# 指定交换机跟控制器类型

通过 `--switch` 选项跟 `--controller` 选项可以分别指定采用哪种类型的交换机跟控制器。

例如使用用户态的交换机：

```
sudo mn --switch user
```

使用 OpenvSwitch：

```
sudo mn --switch ovsk
```

使用 NOX pyswitch：

* 首先确保 NOX 运行

  ```
  cd $NOX_CORE_DIR
  ./nox_core -v -i ptcp:
  ```

  然后 `Ctrl-c` 杀死 NOX 进程
* 然后指定 NOX 交换机

  ```
  sudo -E mn --controller nox_pysw
  ```

注意：通过`-E`选项来保持预定义的环境变量（此处为 `NOX_CORE_DIR`）。

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://yeasy.gitbook.io/mininet_book/operation/type.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
