3 Using the SDN controller UI
The SDN controller provides a console UI you can use as follows:
•
View information such as alerts and logs and view OpenFlow information such as data flow
details, topology of discovered switches and end nodes including shortest path and view
OpenFlow classes that applications have registered.
•
Perform actions such as acknowledging an alert, adding or enabling an application, exporting
log data and entering licensing information.
•
Configure SDN controller components such as setting key values for alert policies.
The SDN controller also provides REST APIs you can use to program or configure the controller
and develop applications to run on the controller. For details on how to use the REST APIs and
how to develop applications, see the
HPE VAN SDN Controller Programming Guide and HPE
