Thank you for answering. I'm not sure if I understood right.
The answer is saying that, if I don't change source or destination, bucket selection won't be redone? Well, I am using group table for my project, and each bucket in the group has different weight. When I tested group table, I found out that after long term without networking, the selection has changed and send packets to different bucket. How does weight of the bucket influence the selection??? 2016-08-02 2:10 GMT+09:00 Ben Pfaff <b...@ovn.org>: > On Mon, Aug 01, 2016 at 05:39:10PM +0900, 허지민 wrote: > > I am working on a project using group table select. > > > > I am figuring out how group table select one of the buckets that is added > > in the group. > > This is in the FAQ. > > ### Q: How does OVS divide flows among buckets in an OpenFlow "select" > group? > > A: In Open vSwitch 2.3 and earlier, Open vSwitch used the destination > Ethernet address to choose a bucket in a select group. > > Open vSwitch 2.4 and later by default hashes the source and > destination Ethernet address, VLAN ID, Ethernet type, IPv4/v6 > source and destination address and protocol, and for TCP and SCTP > only, the source and destination ports.
