Hi Ben, Thanks. I thought there are only hidden flows, and not hidden tables. We are reading all tables from 0 to OFPTT_MAX-1.
But, I see what you're saying. I can probably use OFPMP_TABLE_FEATURES (openflow1.4 spec Section 7.3.5.6) to get all the configured tables. Will this ensure the hidden tables aren't returned? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
