Two ways using command line:

--controller remote,ip=value
--controller=remote --ip=value --port=value

In custom script:

from mininet.node import RemoteController
net = Mininet(topo, switch=switch, controller=RemoteController)

Here is the general form: 

$ sudo mn --topo single,3 --mac --switch ovsk --controller remote,ip=<controller_ip>

Here is an example: 

$ sudo mn --topo single,3 --mac --switch ovsk --controller remote,ip=192.168.206.2

Here is an example of another form: 

sudo mn --controller=remote --ip=127.0.0.1 --port=6633 --mac --topo=linear
