Hi, When I send Modify meter message or Modify flow entry message with meter instruction, OVS always answers OFP errer msg with the reason "OFPET_METER_MOD_FAILED". I think the parameter of Modify meter/flow entry msg is right. But I don't know why OVS answers this cause? Need I do many meter conf

There's no drop. The packets should have wondered somewhere. Find it :D You set this up by a py script or manually? If not entirely by a script which you surely have check, than I'm skeptical of a mistake. But anyway, another suggestion is: manually delete 66th and link 65 with 67. See if it's
