Hello,

I'm in the process of integrating more fine grained statistics into the userspace implementation of openflow (udatapath). As a simple example i want to query a switch for the data rates of each individual flow. Estimating the rates for each flow is simple to do; the more sophisticated part seems to be the extension of the openflow protocol to include such a query for data rates.

In the implementation (include/openflow/openflow-ext.h) i found a natural point to include new messages into openflow.

Now my question is: is this the right point to start from? Or do i have to look for the "Vendor Statistics" which are mentioned in the OpenFlow 1.0 specification? Is there any tutorial or information out there to extent the udatapath implementation?

Regards,

Philip
