This feature is not available in OpenFlow 1.0. So you either need to use a higher version of OpenFlow (which POX doesn't support yet and OVS only recently has gained experimental support for), or using a Nicira extension.</div><div><br></div><div>There are actually two different ways. I think for both of them (and definitely for the second one), you must first enable NXT_FLOW_MOD_TABLE_ID by sending an nx_flow_mod_table_id message to a switch. Once you've done that, you can:</div><div><br></div><div>1) Use nx_flow_mod. This is the version of flow_mod that uses Nicira Extended Match.</div><div><br></div>2) NXT_FLOW_MOD_TABLE_ID slightly modifies how normal ofp_flow_mods are interpreted, making one byte of the command field be the table ID. There's a version of ofp_flow_mod in the nicira module called ofp_flow_mod_table_id which adds a table_id field.<div><div><br></div><div>-- Murphy</div><div><br><div><div>On May 30, 2013, at 10:19 AM, Mayumi Park Campos wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div class="hmmessage" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri; "><div dir="ltr">I just have a question, if I want to add a flow per table I must use de nicira extension?
