            |  | 716 | Testing. This is done with a combination of OVS, mininet, a homebrew OF client, and sandbox stitching, and `ssh` to remote execute commands. |

            |  | 718 | Recapping the sandbox stitching steps: | 
          
            |  | 719 | 1. Designate a OVS node. This node will bridge the VLANs that emulate point-to-point links. Enable VLANs on this node, and create a VLAN per link to emulate. | 
          
            |  | 720 | 1. Set the switch port that the OVS node is connected to as a trunk port including all of the VLANs used for making the 'links' | 
          
            |  | 721 | 1. Assign the switch access ports of each node to the appropriate VLANs. | 
          
            |  | 722 | 1. Assign same-block IP addresses to the data plane ports of the nodes not the OVS node. | 
          
            |  | 723 | 1. Add an OVS bridge with all of the VLAN interfaces to the OVS node. Make sure all interfaces are up, including the bridge interface. |

            |  | 725 | Thanks to mininet being installed, the experiment image has OVS configured and ready to go. |
