mode openflow-only
To enable the OpenFlow-only mode on the switch.
Syntax
mode openflow-only
Parameters None
Default None
Command Mode OPENFLOW CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
The mode openflow-only command is used to enable the OpenFlow-only mode. This command
reloads the switch and the switch boots in the OpenFlow-only mode. This command deletes all layer
2 and layer 3 configurations. However, the system management and AAA configurations are retained.
The no form of this command prompts you for a switch reload. If you enter yes, the switch deletes
all OpenFlow configuration (including controller IP, port, certificates), reloads, and returns to the normal
mode.
NOTE: See CLI commands available in the OpenFlow-only mode for a list of available commands
when the switch is in the OpenFlow-only mode.
Example
OS10 (config-openflow)# mode openflow-only
OS10 (config-openflow)#
