Hi Ben, They belong to ICMP flows from 10.0.0.2 to 10.0.0.3 and vice-versa. The timeout disappeared as for R2, I have specified only hard_timeout. I assumed that since hard timeout duration elapsed so timeout disappeared. But this is weird, conceptually R1 should be there instead of R2 as it has no hard timeout, right? I am using OVS switch with mininet and POX controller in Ubuntu system.
