Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. I better explain my set-up first. I am connected to the university of Nottingham by my main computer named Zeus. Zeus has two interfaces. One connected to the university network its IP is 128.243.18.33. The other interface is connected to my other computer (NEIGHBOR). The interface on Zeus has IP 192.168.1.2 . The interface of NEIGHBOR has IP 192.168.1.1 .

Zeus acts as a gateway to the Internet/Uni Network for NEIGHBOR. I am running NOX and openflow on Zeus. So I have run two tests with NOX using packetdump. First the prior mentioned component is run normally. Second I comment out send_openflow_command so no flow command is being sent.

I have cut and pasted the relevant information from the packet dump into the two attached files. "Dump command on" is when the command is being sent and vice versa for "Dump command off".

From the packet dumps it appears that the packets are being dropped,
because after the first http packet in "Dump command on" no others arrive. However in "Dump command off" you can see others.

However even when I run the component normally, NEIGHBOR still gets the http file. I have also run wireshark, while the command is on and I can see multiple HTTP packets to and from NEIGHBOR. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
Iain

PS the attached files are just standard text files

Hi Iain,

Would you might looking at the control traffic dump to let us know if
you keeping receiving more packet-in after inserting the flow rule?

Also, is there any reason not to set the vlan_pcp?

Regards
KK
