Hello everyone!

I'm developing an Openflow controller for prototyping purposes and I
have a doubt regarding the TCP channel. Is the TCP channel established
from the Switch to the Controller being used for bi-directional
communication? The specs (1.4) refer that a TCP connection from the
Controller to the Switch is optional and not all vendors supply it.
If the controller does not establish a TCP connection to the switch, I
assume that the TCP connection established from the switch to the
controller, is used for bi-directional communication.

Yes, the connection is bidirectional.
