I am using single openflow switch, both controller and the switch are on
the same machine. I am sending an arp request to next hop router(which is
not an openflow router) via packet_out. I didn't receive its reply on the
controller even though my machine receives it. I can see the reply
packet(destined to the MAC of my NIC) in wireshark.
