Hi Yannan, There is a possibility of accumulate a set of actions over a packet flow. As it packet matches one flow entry per table, it becomes necessary to use more than one table for the processing pipeline, for example.
You might get better understanding reading the openflow-spec-v1.1.0. Specially, from the fifth page. --Adriano From: huyannan1 Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2011 11:30 PM To: openflow-discuss Subject: [openflow-discuss] Asking for help about OF 1.1 Hi all, I'm new to OF 1.1.
