Install POX controller

POX is a platform for the rapid development and prototyping of network control software using Python.  It’s one of a growing number of frameworks (including NOX, Floodlight, Trema, etc.,) for helping to write an OpenFlow controller.

POX as well as being a framework for interacting with OpenFlow switches, it can be used as the basis for some of our ongoing work to help build the emerging discipline of Software Defined Networking.  It can be used to explore and prototype distribution, SDN debugging, network virtualization, controller design, and programming models.

Installing POX

$ git clone http://github.com/noxrepo/pox

$ cd pox
