Hello,

is it possible to implement source routing in openflow?

I'm thinking about the following scenario: packet comes to controller and based on criteria like MAC, IP address, etc. controller tells switch to rewrite IP Header with source route option:

Source Route Option
-------------------

+--------+--------+--------+---------//--------+
|00000011| length |        source route        |
+--------+--------+--------+---------//--------+
Option=3


so packets will be routed through the path specified by controller.

Openflow / NOX is new environment for me and I wanted to hear your opinion if it does makes sense and can be implemented in mininet.

Thanks,
Adam
