HI everyone,

I got some questions regarding ovs and flow entry monitoring. I found
several patches back in Jun 2014 implementing Flow Monitors
(http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2014-June/041673.html). However I
can't get them to work with current Ryu 4.1 and ovs 2.4.0. However ovs
rejects flow monitor request with the error msg
OFPERR_OFPMOFC_BAD_FLAGS. After digging through the source code I found
that ofputil_decode_flow_monitor_request actually tries to decode the
message as nx_flow_monitor_request, thus the nicira extension after
which flow monitors are apparently modeled after.

However these message differ for example in the flags field, which I
presume results in the mentioned error I'm receiving. Am I correct in
the assumption that as of now the only way to use flow monitoring is to
use the corresponding nicira extension?

Best regards,
Joel
