Hi,
We are trying to setup Neighbor Solicitation Responder using OpenFlow pipeline
in OVS however it seems some of the fields in Neighbor Advertisement Message
Format cannot be set using OpenFlow set actions. Following is the frame format
of NA message:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Type | Code | Checksum |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|R|S|O| Reserved |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| |
+ +
| |
+ Target Address +
| |
+ +
| |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Options ...
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-
In the above message, fields R (Router flag), S (Solicited flag) and O
(Override flag) cannot be set. Is my understanding correct ?
Also, is there a way to recalculate the checksum and write it to checksum field
when we set the Target Address?
Warm Regards,
Vishal Ajmera
