Hi Mehmet, For your instability issue could you check that the connection between the switches and flowvisor is stable. That'll give us a better idea of where to start looking. You can verify this by running fvctl list-datapaths and confirming that all 4 switches remain connected. If they are always connected then you should probably capture a packet trace between flowvisor and the controllers to see what is actually going on. This can be done with wireshark.

It will only forward control traffic to one slice. In your case myslice1 takes precedence because it has a higher priority and matches all dpids. > Overall, what i am trying to do is to slice the network into virtual subnets, > and here i explained the problems I had during doing that.

Slicing on the dpid only will be tricky because having two entire datapaths in two different slices is nearly impossible, you need some other variable to discriminate on. I don't know what kind of virtual subnets you want to build, but have you considered slicing on IPs or even vlans? Another alternative which is quite simple is to slice on a combination of dpids and ports.
