Simple Max Mode Example

This example sets up a three-node dataplane on one host. In examples/simple-max/controller-config.toml, node 1 is configured with operating_mode = "max", the route is pinned to [1, 2, 3], and a 1 GB flow is defined from node 1 to node 3.

From the repository root:

cd examples/simple-max
docker compose build
docker compose up

Confirm the topology is up:

docker compose ps
docker exec postgres psql -U pgusr -d nextmini -c "SELECT COUNT(*) AS nodes_connected FROM nodes;"

The expected node count is 3.

Verify the path can carry traffic end to end:

docker exec node1 ping -c 3 10.0.0.3

If you want to confirm the active Max-mode setting directly from the example config:

rg -n "operating_mode|route =|flow_len" controller-config.toml

Stop containers when finished:

docker compose down
