The PacketIn event is raised in response to an ofp_packet_in message from the switch. The meaning of this is defined in the OpenFlow specification, but basically it's what happens when a packet arriving at a switch port does not match any table entry, or when the matching table entry includes an action to explicitly send the packet to the controller.<br>
<br>
The ConnectionUp event is not raised in response to any specific OpenFlow message from a switch -- it's raised when a switch connects to the controller. Meaning, for example, that you won't be getting *any* other events from a particular switch until you've gotten a ConnectionUp from it.<br>
