Hello
Sorry to bother others.
My program is to redirect flows according to some metric in a topology
of loops, 5 switches. I need to accurately query flow sizes from
counters. For one flow, I will query its size from the egress switch.
I find that:
1, Querying sizes from the ingress switch has many problems, because
you have no idea whether the first packet will update the counter.
Although the first packet is sent to the outport directly, sometimes
it still update the counter, sometimes it will not. I am wondering how
can it update the counter if it is sent to the outport directly from
the controller.
2, Querying egress switch sometimes has the same problem, but it is
more stable. Occasionally (with small probability), a packet gets
through the switch without updating the counter (Because I saw no
flow_in event is generated). I am wondering what are the possible
reasions for this.
Thanks.
