This is the right place but wrong approach there. OVS has builtin support for experimenter messages and you can't just override that by trying to claim all of them. I would look at the pattern for the existing experiment messages. Since you're working on a stats message, I would follow the pattern for the Open Networking Foundation multipart messages (ONFST). _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-discuss
