This file introduced the formats of the runtime commands that we used for our repo and demo.
If you are interested in it, you can refer to the script that opensourced in the repo p4language, or you can run the commands below after starting the script runtime_CLI to learn more about it:
1.start the runtime CLI by specifing the thrift port number:
./runtime_CLI --thrift-port [port_number]
2.Using the command below in the CLI to check the formats of runtime commands.

The basic operations of flow table:
set the default action of the flow table:
- table_set_default <table name> <action name> <action parameters>
add an entry:
- table_add <table name> <action name> <match fields> => <action parameters> [priority]
delete an entry:
- table_delete <table name> <entry handle>
The basic operations of counter:
read the information from the counter instance:
counter_read $index_of_cell
reset the value of counter instance:
counter_reset $index_of_cell
Multicast:
Create a multicast group:
mc_mgrp_create [group_number]
Create a multicast node:
mc_node_create [v1] [v2]
v1 == multicast node id
v2 == host id
eg. mc_node_create 0 1
Associate a multicast node to a multicast group:
mc_node_associate [v1] [v3]
v3 == multicast node id
eg. mc_node_associate 1 0
