Hello,

I have some questions about the fast failover group option when using
OpenFlow 1.3 in Open vSwitch 2.1.2. How does Open vSwitch monitor the state
of the present buckets in a group?

Supposing that I have one group created by the following command:

> ovs-ofctl -O OpenFlow13 add-group br0
> group_id=123,type=fast_failover,bucket=watch_port:1,output:1,bucket=watch_port:2,output:2


and primarily the packets are being sent through port 1, how can I make
that port being deliberately not alive, so the traffic can be sent to port
2? I've tried through an *ifconfig eth0 down* command (affecting the
interface to which port 1 is mapped), but the interface in OVS doesn't
change it state.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Ricardo Santos
