write_metadata doesn't send a packet to the controller. > Is there a way I can use write_metadata and resubmit? No. write_metadata is an instruction that is always executed after actions such as resubmit. To use metadata and multiple tables together, you must either use an action (such as reg_load or set_field) to set the metadata before using resubmit, or use write_metadata followed by the goto_table instruction (since the ordering of those is correct for what you want to do). _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
