dpid-mac-address
Specifies the MAC address bits of the datapath ID (DPID) of the logical switch instance.
Syntax
dpid-mac-address MAC-address
Parameters MAC-address—48-bit MAC address in hexadecimal notation, nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn
Default MAC address
Command Mode OPENFLOW SWITCH CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
The controller uses the DPID to identify the logical switch instance. The DPID is a 64-bit number that is
sent to the controller in the features_reply message. The DPID is constructed from the instance ID,
which is the most significant 16 bits (default to 0) and the DPID-MAC-ADDRESS, which is the least
significant 48 bits. OS10 currently supports only one logical switch instance and the instance ID is
automatically set to 0. This value is not configurable.
You can use this command to modify the MAC address bits of the DPID.
Example
DPID MAC address is 00:00:00:00:00:0a.
OS10 (config)# openflow
OS10 (config-openflow)# switch of-switch-1

in-band-mgmt
Configures the front-panel ports as the management interface that the SDN controller connects to.
Syntax
in-band-mgmt interface ethernet node/slot/port[:subport]
Parameters node/slot/port[:subport]—Enter the physical port information.
Default None
Command Mode OPENFLOW CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
Use this command to convert any one of the front-panel ports as the management interface. This port is
not part of the OpenFlow logical switch instance. All the ports are L2 ports by default. If you configure
one of the front-panel ports as the management interface, the port becomes an L3 port. You can
configure an L3 IPv4 address only to the front-panel port that you have specified in this command.
Ensure that you have IP connectivity between the specified port and the controller.
The no form of this command removes this configuration and the front-panel port becomes part of the
OpenFlow logical switch instance.
Example
OS10# configure terminal
OS10(config)# openflow
