[pox-dev] openflow, pox tplink

[Shabbir Ahmed]

Yes, I have two hosts connected to the switch and you're trying to ping
across the switch. even if i dont ping the two hosts, as the it conntects
to a controller it starts displaying this msg. the ping works but i think
due to the switch's self learning process and not through OpenFlow bcaz in
the absense of controller the ping should not work? am i right? I was
recieving the same msg with mininet then i refreshed the git clone after
which it started working, when i try to ping host in mininet it displays
the mac addresses and then displays msg adding entry.

wat logs do you want me to send.

1 more thing i can use enable_learning '0' in switch configuration on
openwrt but it doesnt effect any thing, where i think of this statement as
disable default learning of the switch. the switch chip installed is
'rtl8366rb'. I have a rb450g and i have ported the latest openwrt and
followed pantou but same error.

thanks alot,
Shabbir.

please...
