Connect MATLAB simulink model to the real physical SDN-based switches

[Nick6]

Dear all,

How can I connect my MATLAB software model including simulink and script codes to a real physical server (not virtual Mininet) with software-defined networking (SDN) switches? The server includes several switches and ports, and I want to connect my model including several distributed energy resources (DERs) to the ports of the server to realize the data transferring between the SDN controller which is run in another computer, and the MATLAB model in my laptop. Here, the switches are between the MATLAB and SDN controller.

Thank you in advance for your help.
