how to identify the ip address of mininet network? - sdn

I have set up a preview of ryu controller and mininet,but i am not able to identify the mininet ip address as well as not able to ping from other vm machine.But i am able to get the ip of mininet sub-host.

If you want to ping a VM from another VM, you must configure 'Bridged Adapter` for each VM, that way they both have access to the network that you are using, take a look at this.

Port forwarding my home raspberry Pi server using termius

Hi I have a raspberry Pi 4 at my house running a ssh server. To access that remotely I managed to use ddclient, to use a domain name and keep same domain even if my dynamic public IP changes. I tried to start port forwarding but this didn't work. I have premium Termuis account. I want to know it's there any way for me to port my internal ip using termuis.I don't want to use ngrok as it has limitations.I am not a network wizard. I checked https://whoer.net/ it said proxy = no. Any Help would be greatful 🙏

How can I communicate a guest VM to Host using Host-Only Adapter? (Virtual Box)

I'm trying to make a connection from a guest virtual machine (VM) to host. I can from host to the guest VM, but not viceversa.
The context:
I'm trying to gain root access on a CTF VM from VulnHub.com, and I configured the guest VM (the CTF VM) network to Host-Only. Instead, if I choose Bridged Adapter, it works normally, but it means the VM is connected "directly" to my physical network adapter, and I want to avoid that for security reasons.
Some other thing I read is set 2 adapter: NAT and Host-Only, but it gives me only the NAT ip address range (10.0.x.x).
Basically, I want to use netcat to make a connection sending a reverse shell from the guest VM to the host, but I want to make it work with the Host-Only Adapter, not Bridged Adapter. How can I make it work?
I found the problem. It was I xd
Why? Because I was trying to access from the host-only adapter (named vboxnet0 in my machine) to the psysical adapter (a switch router). The host-only is a configuration which isolates the networking between the host machine and the guest virtual machine.
So, the IP (IPv4 address) to communicate from guest to host was specified when I created vboxnet0 on Host Network Manager (VirtualBox 6.1). And IS NOT the one I found using the command ifconfig in Linux.
I hope this can help another newbie who have this misunderstanding.

Trying to connect to the pfsence web interface

I have installed and set up pfsence on virtual box and it is booting up properly and seems to be working fine. My problems are:
When I tried to ping the LAN IP from my computer's command prompt it does not receive the packets but if i ping it from inside the virtual machine using pfsence then it returns packets.
Also if I try the IP in the browser it does not take me to the pfsence interface. I used all defaults when installing the the pfsence.
Any suggestions will be welcomed
LAN IP - 192.168.20.20
pfsence version - 2.4.5
This means that you are unable to route into the VM from your computer. What is the Network Adapter for your VM attached to in your VirtualBox settings? If you configure it with a NAT you can achieve your desired configuration.

Pica8 SDN whiteswitch ping from mangement console to host port

I am connecting my controller PC to a Pica8 white switch via the Management port. I can SSH into the switch and ping the controller PC, however I cant ping the hosts through the standard ports. I have created a bridge of the first four ports and have successfully pinged from host to host after I installed a flow that allowed it.
My question is, is there some kind of mechanism separating the controller port from all of the data ports, I would think I should be able to ping from the switch to the hosts.
I'm not sure this answers your question, but before pinging the management port I believe you need to set an IP for it via the console port.
I use minicom per the instructions located here. However, I am using the RJ45 to DB9 adapter cable -> USB Serial port connection. That looks like so.
Unfortunately, that creates a problem with minicom, since the instructions tell you to simply power up the switch and observe the received data. There is actually a little more to it than that. You have to configure minicom's serial port. Fortunately, there is a tech blog that I found very helpful. If you follow the provided instructions, it will walk you through changing ports. Once you modify the port that minicom is listening on (For me it is Port /dev/ttyUSB0), you should be able to configure your management port.

SSH into linux after creating an access point with hostapd

I made a remote control vehicle with a Raspberry Pi, but i am linked to a wifi router. I decided to make the Pi itself some kind of router to connect directly to it. I downloaded and set up hostapd, set the own_ip_addr=127.0.0.1. When i ping 127.0.0.1, i get responses, but i can't ssh at that address.
Any help is welcome. If you have any idea other than hostapd, please tell me. I just want to control the Pi via wifi without a router.
127.0.0.1 is the local address, and not valid external to the Pi...
If you want to connect to the Pi externally, you must find the Pi's network IP.
You could find this by running ip addr show on the Pi, and taking note of the IP for the interface you are using.
Then just use that IP when you try SSHing.
