Fwiw, the lldp packets are "malformed" because flowvisor is sourcing
them not 100% according to spec.  It's not that the network is
trashing them somehow.

I agree with Nick that the problem is elsewhere: if you can capture
the of error message, it will have the openflow message that *caused*
the problem embedded into it.
