Abstract
With the growing adoption of Software Defined Networking (SDN), there is a compelling need for SDN emulators that facilitate experimenting with new SDN-based technologies. Unfortunately, Mininet [1], the de facto standard emulator for software defined networks, fails to scale with network size and traffic volume. The aim of this paper is to fill the void in this space by presenting a low cost and scalable network emulator called Distributed OpenFlow Testbed (DOT). It can emulate large SDN deployments by distributing the workload over a cluster of compute nodes. Through extensive experiments, we show that DOT can overcome the limitations of Mininet and emulate larger networks. We also demonstrate the effectiveness of DOT on four Rocketfuel topologies. DOT is available for public use and community-driven development at dothub.org.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
