Connectivity Guide
where server-ip refers to the server where you have stored the certicates, and username and password refers to the credentials you
need to access the server with the certicates.
3 Perform the steps described in the Congure OpenFlow protocol on the switch topic to congure OpenFlow.
OpenFlow commands
controller
Congures an OpenFlow controller that the logical switch instance connects to.
Syntax
controller ipv4 ipv4-address [port port-number] [security {none|tls}]
Parameters
• ipv4 ipv4-address—Enter ipv4, then the IP address of the controller.
• port port-number—Enter the keyword, then the port number, from 1 to 65,535. The default port is 6653.
• security {none|tls}—Specify the type of connection. The default is security none. The TCP
connection is used.
Default TCP. The default port number is 6653.
Command Mode OPENFLOW SWITCH CONFIGURATION
Usage Information If you specify the security tls option, the OpenFlow application looks for the following certicates and private
key in the following locations specied for certicate-based authentication. For information about obtaining
certicates and installing them on the switch and the controller, see Establish TLS connection between the switch
and the controller.
ca_cert (certicate
that identies the
controller as being
trustworthy)
/config/etc/opt/dell/os10/openflow/cacert.pem
certicate
(certicate that
identies the switch
as being
trustworthy)
/config/etc/opt/dell/os10/openflow/sc-cert.pem
private key (the
private key
corresponding to
the switch
certicate)
/config/etc/opt/dell/os10/openflow/sc-privkey.pem
Example
The following example congures an OpenFlow controller with IP address 10.11.63.56 on port 6633 for the logical
switch instance, of-switch-1.
OS10# configure terminal
OS10 (config)# openflow
OS10 (config-openflow)# switch of-switch-1
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)# controller ipv4 10.11.63.56 port 6633
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)#
