"""Mininet Cleanup

@author Bob Lantz (rlantz@cs.stanford.edu)

Unfortunately, Mininet and OpenFlow don't always clean up
properly after themselves. Until they do (or until cleanup
functionality is integrated into the python code), this
script may be used to get rid of unwanted garbage. It may
also get rid of 'false positives', but hopefully nothing
irreplaceable!
