ODL magnesium with Openflow

I want to setup mininet, Openflow plugin with ODL magnesium version where the ODL UI is not supported now. I need guidance on how can I set this up on my local system and configure it.

The main purpose is that I should get XML payload like it is provided at https://docs.opendaylight.org/projects/openflowplugin/en/stable-magnesium/users/operation.html#retrieving-topology-details-by-using-restconf on my postman.

The UI has nothing to do with setting up and/or configuring openflow or mininet, so don't worry about that.

You need to start ODL and install the openflowplugin features. probably just odl-openflowplugin-flow-services-rest and odl-openflowplugin-app-table-miss-enforcer is good enough.

then start mininet and point it to your running controller. something like

sudo mn --controller=remote,ip=<controller_ip> --switch=ovsk,protocols=OpenFlow13

Once that is setup, you should be able to use POSTMAN to interact with your controller to program and see flows.
