thanks Zoltan,
Would you please point me to the exact Table Feature instruction/field that can
request an openflow switch to add a specific table to the pipeline?

{}#yiv4387626187 Hello, In OpenFlow 1.3 and later the Table Features message
is bidirectional. The controller can use this message to request a new pipeline
(set of new tables) from the switch. Also, there is ongoing work in ONF on
Table Type Patterns (TTPs) [1]. These are predefined pipelines that the
controller and switch can negotiate before starting the OpenFlow channel.
Comparing these in their current state I think TTPs are more mature; also TTPs
provide additional information on the tables that the switch can use for
optimized table implementations. BR, Zoltan

Subject: [openflow-discuss] Openflow tables Hi, are openflow tables
odefined in the switch only by user configuration, or there is an instruction
by the controller which can request switch to create a new table?
