Hi Yiannis,

Thanks for your reply . sorry but didnt really understand here.  I have a
TP-Link AP and i connected my laptop to it, till here fine the port is
added and it is shown to the controller. However if i disconnect the port
from the AP , the OF protocol doesnt sends an Port Status notifications to
the controller . I want to check if this is normal when using Pantou on
OpenWRT. On the other hand using a mikrotik switch if i disconnect the
client it sends the Port status notification to the controller.

Many thanks :)
Etienne
