As per the OpenFlow specification 1.3.1, the prec_level given in the ofp_meter_band_dscp_remark
indicates by what amount the DSCP value in the packets should be incremented if the packets
exceed the band. However, the switch implementation directly replaces the DSCP value in the IP
packets with the prec_level when the band exceeds the meter defined by the controller
Support for miss_len field in ‘switch configuration’ messages
The switch implementation does not honor the miss_len miss_send_len field specified in the packet-in
switch configuration messages. This is because, switch doesn’t buffer packets. Due to this controller
will see the entire packet copied in packet-in message with buffer_id set as OFP_NO_BUFFER.
