I have also been looking for a good opensource controller so I was interested in
this thread.  Is there a binary version for Centos 5/6 available.  The link I
followed just provided source code and instructions for building within the
eclipse IDE.

Thanks,

Jon

I am biased as the author of Beacon (http://www.beaconcontroller.net/), but I
have been using it with a cluster of 80 XenServer machines running OVS,
interconnected by physical OpenFlow switches for over a year.

I'll second Beacon as a good choice. Great performance and probably the most
featureful of the open-source controllers.

If you want to get hacking on stuff really fast then there is NOX which though
not as tanky as Beacon lets you write extensions in Python, which is imo a big
plus.

There is also this project which I am yet to try out but it looks interesting:

https://github.com/trema

It seems to be the remnants of the NEC Helios controller. (which to my knowledge
was never available anywhere).

Hi, All

do you have any opensource controllers to recommand？
since XCP don't have a controller to control OVS centrally,i need a
controller like vswitch controller for xenserver.
there are so many open source openflow controller, i really don't know which
one to choose.

thanks in advance[cid:image001.gif@01CD717C.4F6CB4A0]
