Hi Ben,
I understand that when an openflow controller is set on the switch, the
switch will try to connect to the controller target and keeps alive the
connection by a series of echo_requests and echo_replies. So, I thought,
we need a passive connection that listens on the target that is
configured for the controller and respond to the requests from the switch.
I also thought this will help in responding to the packet-in requests as
soon as it arrives. I hope my understanding is correct, if not, please
correct me.
Thank you,
Babu

Doesn't it work to just start a second connection to the controller, in
the same way that ofctrl connects to the controller?
