That's incorrect.
Currently, the main method for hardware switches is to use an
out-of-band mechanism. If you look at any
Hi Ben,
Let me rephrase my question. I know, how flow entries are added into a
single flow table. But, I have few doubts while installing a flow entry
into multiple flow tables.
1) Switch can maintain any number of flow tables. But, the controller will
come to know about it only through "OFPMT_TA
Exactly the same way as every other OpenFlow switch. There is nothing
Open vSwitch specific here.

Hi Ben,
am just asking when OVS uses multiple flow tables without
"OFPMP_TABLE_FEATURES".
How it informs the controller? how they have been used ? Just wanted to get
it clarified...

Your question makes no sense, because OpenFlow 1.1 and 1.2 had
multiple tables (in the sense that you mean) but did not have
OFPMP_TABLE_FEATURES. Are you saying that these two versions of
OpenFlow were useless? If you are, please explain. If you are not,
then please consult their specifications
Hi Ben,
Thanks for your support.
I was asking about how OVS uses multiple flow table when it is not capable
of informing controller about it has support for multiple flow tables
through OFPMP_TABLE_FEATURES?
Since OVS doesnt support OFPMP_TABLE_FEATURES then obviously controller may
not be kn
OpenFlow 1.1 and later support the kind of multiple tables you care
about. Only OpenFlow 1.3 added OFPMP_TABLE_FEATURES. You can consult
the OpenFlow specifications to learn about how OpenFlow works.

Hi Ben,
Thanks for your response. Even though OVS 1.3 or later is supporting
multiple flow tables. May I know what is the use of them if controller is
not informed about multiple flow tables through OFPMT_TABLE_FEATURES. Or do
you use some other mechanism to inform the controller about supporting
Only OVS 2.4 supports OFPMT_TABLE_FEATURES.
OVS 1.3 and later support multiple flow tables.

Hi Ben,
In your previous reply to this thread, you had mentioned that OVS 2.4 only
will support multiple flow tables. Now, you mention that it is supported in
OVS1.3 onwards. I see, OFPMT_TABLE_FEATURES is not supported in OVS 2.1.0.
Do you mean, it is supported in 1.3? If it is supported in 1.3

Thanks for your reply. I am planning to use OVS to inform the controller
about multiple flow support. Since any of the OVS versions are not
supporting Multiple flow tables support, could you please clarify my
doubts. Also, want to know if you share the details how OVS is going to
support m
We're just waiting on support for the "conntrack" action in the
kernel. A few weeks to a month, I guess.

Hi Experts,
am planning to use Broadcom OFDPA which will support multiple flow tables
in the hardware. So, I would like to use OVS to send flow tables
capabilities to the controller. When I digged into OVS 2.1.0 code, I see,
OFPMT_TABLE_FEATURES is not supported in OVS. Could you please experts
