Thank you very much! That's exactly what i am searching for. However when i
try the above command i get this:
*ovs-vsctl: Interface does not contain a column whose name matches
"ifindex"*
i tried something more general, and as the above command stated no such
column:
*sudo ovs-vsctl list Interface_uuid :
18ee3470-ef22-4b6f-b9c3-4c6111842f1eadmin_state :

tx_packets=4}status : {driver_name=veth, driver_version="1.0",
firmware_version=""}type : ""*
I guess my mininet vm uses an older version of ovs that perhaps does not
support ifIndex?
*sudo ovs-vsctl --versionovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch) 1.10.2*
I would like to ask something else about sflow and ovs.
Lets say i have a mininet topology again with a couple virtual switches (s1
, s2)
I again add the sflow agents. I want to sort the samples based on which
switch they are received from.
I am thinking *agentSubId* & *sourceId* fields are the ones i must focus
on. However again, is there anyway to map
the sflow sample to the datapath Id my openflow controller understands?
sflow sample:
*sourceId 2:1000*
openflow controller:
*Connection [00-00-00-00-00-01 1]*
Thanks in advance
