1. Execute the script create_net.sh.

$ ./create_net.sh

2. Execute the script setup.sh.

$ ./setup.sh

Virtual Machines creation and configuration:

1. In lan1/vagrant/ubuntu folder run vagrant up.

$ cd new_topology/lan1/vagrant/ubuntu
$ vagrant up

VM username = vagrant. VM password = vagrant.

Server Flask:

1. Install Flask.

$ sudo pip3 install flask

2. In new_topology/lan1 folder run python3 app.py

$ cd new_topology/lan1
$ python3 app.py

Containers building and setup:

1. In docker/docker-build folder run docker compose up.

$ cd new_topology/docker/docker-build
$ docker compose up

2. In docker folder execute the script setup_container.sh.

$ cd new_topology/docker
$ ./setup_container.sh

3. In docker folder execute the script auth.sh.

$ cd new_topology/docker
$ ./auth.sh

1. Open a command line and execute controller Container:

$ sudo docker exec -it controller bash

2. In controller Container, enter in /home/rest_controller directory and run the following command:

$ cd /home/rest_controller
$ ryu-manager rest_controller.py

1. Enter in ELK Virtual Machine (via VirtualBox GUI) with username and password previously specified.
2. In ELK Virtual Machine, enter in /elastalert directory and run:

$ cd elastalert
$ python3 -m elastalert.elastalert --verbose

1. In /docker/docker-build run docker compose down.

$ cd new_topology/docker/docker-build
$ docker compose down

2. In /vagrant/ubuntu run vagrant destroy.

$ cd new_topology/vagrant/ubuntu
$ vagrant destroy

3. In new_topology execute the script reset.sh.

$ ./reset.sh
