[pox-dev] sending packets on all ports of the controller

Hello All,

reserved port OFPP_FLOOD floods on all ports of the switch, is there any
such port to which a controller can flood on all connections made to
itself???

currently I tried sending ports on each connection using the
dpid:connection map as below


                         for aconnection in self.connections.values():
                                        if event.connection !=
aconnection:#to avoid sending the pkt on incoming port
                                                 aconnection.send(msg)

I am trying to implement proxy ARP(thanks to thread started by Muhammad)
and am trying to make the controller flood the arpreq on all its
connections incase of no entry , rather than instructing the switch to
flood.

as of now  I can see that controller is responding to both h3 and h1 with
arp responses, but the table itself is built by sw1 flooding the initial
arp req
