Hi ! >From OpenFlow Specification 1.3:
"If a flow entry with identical match fields and priority already resides in the requested table, then that entry, including its duration, must be cleared from the table, and the new flow entry added." What does this mean for a traffic (stream) currently using such a flow ? Will the flow be unavailable for short time during clear/insert, or is this done atomically (so may the traffic will use another suitable flow in the table) ? For a test, add same flow every x seconds during a stream transfer... In general: when there is a flow table update, the incoming traffic will be processed in parallel or will be halted until table modification is finished ? BR
