Hi sir I use mininet with pox controller. In mininet terminal when I give the command 'sudo mn --topo=torus,3,3 --controller=remote --switch=lxbr,stp=1 ' the pingall is working successfully, but in pox terminal 'connection aborted' is displayed I want to know how to make the network with loop work (ping) and at the same time connect to the controller mininet pox

This is a general problem with learning switches. You'll want to run it with the spanning_tree or spanning_forest component. (Or write a better routing component.)
