The kernel module doesn't know what to do with in_port=OFPP_CONTROLLER. Use OFPP_NONE instead. (Nevertheless, OVS should validate this before it gets to the kernel module. I've filed an internal bug report to get this fixed.) _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
