OpenDaylight is a SDN controller. It can be used to control and orchestrate a network of switches.

OpenDaylight supports many southbound protocols and can be integrated in Openstack or even Kubernetes.

• A ready-to-use OpenDaylight instance that will start up as a server. Multiple OpenDaylight versions are provided as tags.
• The images are based on openjdk:11-jre-slim-buster for OpenDaylight 10+ and openjdk:8-jre-slim-buster for older versions.
• No features are installed (you can install modules at boot time by setting the KARAF_FEATURES env variable).
• Exposed TCP ports:
  • 6633 Openflow,
  • 8101 Karaf CLI via SSH (see below),
  • 8181 RESTCONF / HTTP

A typical use-case will be starting docker with several environment variables to prepare the container in a way that you have a readily configured OpenDaylight instance with the features you need.

docker run -d -p 6633:6633 -p 8101:8101 -p 8181:8181 --name=opendaylight stephanfuhrmannionos/opendaylight

To access the Karaf CLI, issue the command

ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -p 8101 karaf@localhost

The default SSH credentials are:

• Username: karaf
• Password: karaf

Note: StrictHostKeyChecking and UserKnownHostsFile file is turned off because different container invocations will have different host keys.

An interactive Karaf shell can also be spawned with the following command line:

docker exec -ti opendaylight bin/client

where opendaylight is the name of the running container.

The following environment variables can be set to customize the started server:

Example:

docker run  -e KARAF_USER=michael -e KARAF_PASSWORD=knight -p 6633:6633 -p 8101:8101 -p 8181:8181 --name=opendaylight stephanfuhrmannionos/opendaylight:latest
