[pox-dev] A flow removal question

[Murphy McCauley]

The information you want may not be available on the FlowRemoved event object itself, but as described in the "OpenFlow Events" section of the manual, the actual OpenFlow protocol message that caused the event is available on the event's .ofp attribute.  In this case, that means it's an ofp_flow_removed object.  If you look that up in the OpenFlow spec, you'll see there should be a .match attribute containing the match for the table entry as well as the .cookie (which, as I mention in my post on pox-dev a few minutes ago, is probably even more useful).
