If the OpenFlow 1.0 reference implementation has an 8-queue limitation, then that is an implementation issue. Open vSwitch does not have a 8-queue limitation. Its limit is closer to 65000 queues per network device. (However, some reconfiguration costs are linear in the number of queues, so in practice I would recommend limiting queues to a few hundred if you can.) _______________________________________________ openflow-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/openflow-discuss
