 {{{

+Place the contents of floodlight_modules inside the src/main/java/net/floodlightcontroller/ folder.

 == 3. Running Floodlight with MobilityFirst ==
 
 The [https://mobilityfirst.orbit-lab.org/wiki/SystemPrototyping/Projects/ClickRouter CLICK router project page] has details on configurations in which the software router can be used. The file sender and file receiver configurations can be used as end hosts. A node running the router configuration can be used for the storage of chunks.
+
+Before starting the controller, it has to be configured to load the MobilityFirst modules on start up and to listen for PACKET_IN messages. 
+
+Open the file src/main/resources/floodlightdefault.properties and add the following lines before the lines that mention the ports for floodlight and the REST API.
+
+{{{
+net.floodlightcontroller.guidtomacmapper.GUIDtoMACMapper,\
+net.floodlightcontroller.mffunctions.MFFunctions
+}}}
+
+The file should look like 
+{{{
+floodlight.modules = net.floodlightcontroller.staticflowentry.StaticFlowEntryPusher,\
+net.floodlightcontroller.forwarding.Forwarding,\
+net.floodlightcontroller.jython.JythonDebugInterface,\
+net.floodlightcontroller.counter.CounterStore,\
+net.floodlightcontroller.perfmon.PktInProcessingTime,\
+net.floodlightcontroller.guidtomacmapper.GUIDtoMACMapper,\
+net.floodlightcontroller.mffunctions.MFFunctions
+net.floodlightcontroller.restserver.RestApiServer.port = 8080
+net.floodlightcontroller.core.FloodlightProvider.openflowport = 6633
+}}}
+
+Add the following two lines to src/main/resources/META_INF/services/net.floodlightcontroller.core.moduele.IFloodlightModule
+{{{
+net.floodlightcontroller.guidtomacmapper.GUIDtoMACMapper
+net.floodlightcontroller.mffunctions.MFFunctions
+}}}
+
+The last step is to edit src/main/java/net/floodlightcontroller/forwarding/Forwarding.java to not process MF packets, i.e, to include the condition
+{{{
+if (match.getDataLayerType == 0x27c0)
+        return Command.CONTINUE;
+}}}
