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。
· 所创建拓扑结构中有两个交换机,以其中端口号为35242的交换机为例。
Hello
· 控制器6633端口(我最高能支持OpenFlow 1.0) ---> 交换机35242端口
· 交换机35242端口(我最高能支持OpenFlow 1.3)--- 控制器6633端口
· OpenFlow协议向下兼容,于是双方建立连接,并使用OpenFlow 1.0
Features_Request:
· 控制器6633端口(我需要你的特征信息) ---> 交换机35242端口
Set Config:
· 控制器6633端口(请按照我给你的flag和max bytes of packet进行配置) ---> 交换机35242端口
Port_Status:
· 当交换机端口发生变化时,告知控制器相应的端口状态。
Features_Reply:
· 交换机35242端口(这是我的特征信息,请查收)--- 控制器6633端口
Packet_IN:
Packet_Out:
Flow_Mod:
· 分析抓取的flow_mod数据包,控制器通过6633端口向交换机35242端口、交换机35264端口下发流表项,指导数据的转发处理
· 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。
· 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?
通过wireshark抓包工具,可一看出使用的是TCP协议(Transmission Control Protocol)。
(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。
Hello
struct ofp_header {
uint8_t version; /* OFP_VERSION. */
uint8_t type; /* One of the OFPT_ constants. */
uint16_t length; /* Length including this ofp_header. */
uint32_t xid; /* Transaction id associated with this packet.
Replies use the same id as was in the request
to facilitate pairing. */
};
struct ofp_hello {
struct ofp_header header;
};
Features_Request:
· Features_Request消息类型的格式与Hello一致,含有一个头部ofp_header。
Set Config:
/* Switch configuration. */
struct ofp_switch_config {
struct ofp_header header;
uint16_t flags; /* OFPC_* flags. */
uint16_t miss_send_len; /* Max bytes of new flow that datapath should
send to the controller. */
};
Port_Status:
/* A physical port has changed in the datapath */
struct ofp_port_status {
struct ofp_header header;
uint8_t reason; /* One of OFPPR_*. */
uint8_t pad[7]; /* Align to 64-bits. */
struct ofp_phy_port desc;
};
Features_Reply:
/* Description of a physical port */
struct ofp_phy_port {
uint16_t port_no;
uint8_t hw_addr[OFP_ETH_ALEN];
char name[OFP_MAX_PORT_NAME_LEN]; /* Null-terminated */

/* Bitmaps of OFPPF_* that describe features. All bits zeroed if
* unsupported or unavailable. */
uint32_t curr; /* Current features. */
uint32_t advertised; /* Features being advertised by the port. */
uint32_t supported; /* Features supported by the port. */
uint32_t peer; /* Features advertised by peer. */
};
OFP_ASSERT(sizeof(struct ofp_phy_port) == 48);
/* Switch features. */
struct ofp_switch_features {
struct ofp_header header;
uint64_t datapath_id; /* Datapath unique ID. The lower 48-bits are for
a MAC address, while the upper 16-bits are
implementer-defined. */
uint32_t n_buffers; /* Max packets buffered at once. */
uint8_t n_tables; /* Number of tables supported by datapath. */

/* Port info.*/
struct ofp_phy_port ports[0]; /* Port definitions. The number of ports
is inferred from the length field in
the header. */
};
Packet_IN:
PACKET_IN有两种情况:
· 交换机查找流表,发现没有匹配条目,但是这种包没有抓到过
enum ofp_packet_in_reason {
OFPR_NO_MATCH, /* No matching flow. */
OFPR_ACTION /* Action explicitly output to controller. */
};
· 有匹配条目,对应的action是OUTPUT=CONTROLLER,固定收到向控制器发送包
/* Packet received on port (datapath -> controller). */
struct ofp_packet_in {
struct ofp_header header;
uint32_t buffer_id; /* ID assigned by datapath. */
uint16_t total_len; /* Full length of frame. */
uint16_t in_port; /* Port on which frame was received. */
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. */
};
OFP_ASSERT(sizeof(struct ofp_packet_in) == 20)
Packet_Out:
/* Send packet (controller -> datapath). */
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
from the length field in the header.
(Only meaningful if buffer_id == -1.) */
};
OFP_ASSERT(sizeof(struct ofp_packet_out) == 16);
Flow_Mod:
struct ofp_flow_mod {
struct ofp_header header;
struct ofp_match match; /* Fields to match */
uint64_t cookie; /* Opaque controller-issued identifier. */
/* Flow actions. */
uint16_t command; /* One of OFPFC_*. */
uint16_t idle_timeout; /* Idle time before discarding (seconds). */
uint16_t hard_timeout; /* Max time before discarding (seconds). */
uint16_t priority; /* Priority level of flow entry. */
uint32_t buffer_id; /* Buffered packet to apply to (or -1).
Not meaningful for OFPFC_DELETE*. */
uint16_t out_port; /* For OFPFC_DELETE* commands, require
matching entries to include this as an
output port. A value of OFPP_NONE
indicates no restriction. */
uint16_t flags; /* One of OFPFF_*. */
struct ofp_action_header actions[0]; /* The action length is inferred
from the length field in the
header. */
};
struct ofp_action_header {
uint16_t type; /* One of OFPAT_*. */
uint16_t len; /* Length of action, including this
header. This is the length of action,
including any padding to make it
64-bit aligned. */
uint8_t pad[4];
};
(三)实验报告
⚪ 实验难度:适中
· 本次实验在于利用wireshark抓包工具,获取OpenFlow协议数据包,然后分析各种数据包的用途,分析控制器与交换机的交互关系。进阶实验通过查看源码,验证自己所抓取的数据包。
⚪ 实验过程遇到的困难:
· 问题1:打开wireshark后创建拓扑,过滤Openflow数据包,并未找到Flow_Mod数据包
解决:阅读文档,Flow_Mod数据包是控制器想交换机下发流表项,指导数据的转发处理,于是启动wireshark后尝试执行pingall,找到了Flow_mod数据包。
· 问题2:保存wireshark抓包文件后,再用wireshark打开.pcapng文件,权限不足。
解决:输入命令行"sudo chmod 777 xxx.pcapng"解决此问题,777代表,user,group ,others ,都有读写和可执行权限。
⚪ 收获与感想:
· 收获:能够熟悉运用 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;对拓扑建立使用到的协议和数据交互流程有了更深的理解;更加熟悉了mininet的一些命令行操作;。
· 感想:本次实验难度不大,通过wireshark抓取数据包、抓取数据包学习了OpenFlow协议下控制器和交换机的交互过程,涉及到多个不同用途的数据包,分析这些数据包的版本、类型、源端口、目的端口和相关字段。截图、源码很多,整理实验报告,画流程图很花实践,但再过程中可以加深对控制器与交换机交互过程的理解。实验任有疏漏,还需要继续补缺!。。。
