The expected behavior should be a packet in, IMHO, but the spec does not say explicitly so this could be up for debate. By intuition, OFPP_TABLE says "do what would have happened if this packet had come from the normal packet pipeline", so packet_in is the right answer there. What happens with a miss on OFPP_TABLE is not configurable, but what happens on a miss in general is configurable in OF1.1, fwiw. - Rob . _______________________________________________ openflow-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/openflow-discuss
