It's normal for an OpenFlow switch to connect to its controller rather than the other way around. But you can do it either way with Open vSwitch. To make Open vSwitch listen for connections from a controller on TCP port 6633, just set the controller to "ptcp:". _______________________________________________ openflow-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/openflow-discuss
