The `addController` method in the python `mininet.net.Mininet` class is used to add a controller to the Mininet network. A controller is responsible for handling the communication between the switches and the hosts in a software-defined network (SDN).
This method takes in parameters such as the name of the controller, the IP address of the controller, and the port number on which the controller is listening. It creates a controller object and adds it to the list of controllers in the network.
By adding a controller, the Mininet network can be managed and controlled through the controller's software-defined networking (SDN) functionality, allowing for centralized control and configuration of the network.
