OpenFlow Configuration
User Guidelines
If the administrator changes the OpenFlow variant while the OpenFlow
feature is enabled, the switch automatically disables and re-enables the
OpenFlow feature causing all flows to be deleted and connections to the
controllers to be dropped.
OpenFlow operates on the stack master only. Flows may not be configured on
stack members. Failover to the stack standby unit is not supported.
OpenFlow should only be enabled on stand-alone switches and should not be
enabled on stacks of switches. This restriction is not enforced.
Command History
Introduced in version 6.3.0.1 firmware.
Example
