Hello ODLers,
I have been using OpenFlowPlugin a bit, and I have been noticing strange behavior regarding the rules I've been installing in the newer version of my code. I have been successfully installing flows with ArbitraryBitMask on ipv4 addresses, but I have found that some such specific flows were causing errors in openflowplugin. Here is the code relevant to the error: https://pastebin.com/yJDZesXU Here are the errors I get every time I install a rule that walks through these lines: https://pastebin.com/c9HYLBt6 Explaination: I may or may not know the IP of the flows. If I do not know the IP of the flows, I put an "any" kind of mask that is scattered across the least significant n bits of the unknown ip addresses. If the IP address is known, typically, I will not set a mask, and I will put the known address instead. This may lead to having the "set" the fields twice, overwriting the previous values... but the resulting values always seem clean. Last attempt, I printed the contents of my matcher, and got the following: (first flow installed: the known address was injected, which caused an error) SRC: Ipv4Address [_value=10.99.99.1] DEST: Ipv4Address [_value=0.0.0.0] SRCM:DottedQuad [_value=255.255.255.255] DESTM: DottedQuad [_value=0.0.0.3] (second flow installed: I purposefully commented the lines that would set the destination, resulting in null destination fields. This did not cause any errors. I know this from experiment, although it was not obvious with this experiment alone.) SRC: Ipv4Address [_value=0.0.0.0] DEST: null SRCM:DottedQuad [_value=0.0.0.3] DESTM: null Interestingly, if I invert the values, I still get an error, and still an error concerning the destination. The flows that don't fail are installed correctly, as they are shown by "ovs-ofctl dump-flows". ... My question is... what's wrong here? Obviously, "10.99.99.1" and "255.255.255.255" are valid Ipv4Addresses and DottedQuads. They are by no means "malformed". Why would the flow fail to install? What is malformed? Vincent
