Hi,

you are right that a CLI might be helpful, and it is in fact one of the
things that we have in mind as a next feature.
However,  keep in mind that you can already setup flows proactively (before
any packet is received), with NOX programmatically. (e.g. by adding the
relevant code on the datapath_join handler instead of the packet_in
handler). A packet_in is just another event, nothing says that flows should
be added based on that event only.
