But is it Pkt out/Pkt in , from the controller perspective ? Shuva
-----Original Message----- From: Zoltán Lajos Kis Sent: Friday, September 27, 2013 1:43 PM To: Shuva Jyoti Kar; openflow-discuss@lists.stanford.edu Subject: RE: openflow-discuss Digest, Vol 59, Issue 28 Here is a brief description: http://blogs.ixiacom.com/ixia-blog/discovery-in-openflow-networks-at-onf-plugfest/ The only mistake here is that there should be a separate packet_out/lldp message per switch and per port. If the controller were to do it as described here (one packet_out/lldp for all ports), it wouldn't be able to tell which actual ports are connected.
