Hello, 

"Wouldn't it make more sense to use the OF1.5 extensible port statistics
feature?"
[MW] To be honest I double checked the OF1.5 documentation, and did you mean 
"Extensible Flow Statistics - OXS"? 
At least I can't find anything about Extensible port statistics. I've also 
checked the code, however I can't find 
any generic way to implement it without protocol extension. If you meant, that 
this could be achieved by creating flow
statistics extension, this is not exactly what my patch implements, which is 
port-based statistics. 

Could you point me to any exact code/documentation if none of above answers are 
valid? 

Br, 
Michal.

Wouldn't it make more sense to use the OF1.5 extensible port statistics
feature?
