[dev] Topotests - Call for users

[Rafael Zalamena]

Donald,

I ran topotest in a Fedora 25 (64bit) VM (using virtualbox) and it
worked. The only thing different from Ubuntu is that there is no RPM
for Mininet.

I'll attach and inline the script I used to install the requirements of
topotest in this e-mail (you can do it by hand or just execute it).

If you still have problems running topotest, because of some 'daemon
not running' errors, please try the usual:

* Check if the 'frr' and 'frrvty' users exist;
* Check the configure options (use "--with-pkg-extra-version=-my-ver"
to make sure it is the correct binary)
* Create and change owner of '/var/run/frr' to frr:frr

If it still doesn't work, please, send more details or find me in
Slack.

Regards,
Rafael
