OpenFlow 1659

Ethernet Type The EtherType in Ethernet V2 tagged and untagged

packets.

VLAN ID The VLAN Identifier field in the VLAN header. The valid

range for the VLAN ID is 1 to 4094. Note that all packets

are classified into a VLAN when they are processed by the

OpenFlow 1.0 classifier. The packets that entered the

switch without a tag are assigned a VLAN either by the

ingress port PVID or by the Source MAC VLAN

Assignment Table. Thus 0xFFFF, a special VLAN

designator indicating that the entry should match

untagged traffic, cannot be used as a match criteria for this

field.

VLAN Priority The VLAN Priority field in the VLAN header. The valid

range for the VLAN Priority is 0 to 7. Note that all packets

are tagged in the system when they are processed by the

OpenFlow 1.0 classifier. The packets that entered the

switch without a tag are assigned a default port priority

configured for the port.

IP Source Address The 4-byte IP source address in IPv4 packets. Only packets

with EtherType 0x0800 can match to the IP Source Address

field. The OpenFlow controller is not required to explicitly

set up the Ethernet Type match field. The Ethernet Type

field may be wildcarded and the switch can still match IPv4

packets.

The switch supports subnet masking for the IP Source

Address.

The Source IP Address matching within ARP packets is not

supported.
