I started to remove switches and discovered one was causing issues. I have not 
yet investigated why. 

What I am trying to accomplish is a proof of concept with 4 switches in a ring 
topology. Two of the four switches are connected to different subnets. So 
192.168.0.x is connected to switch1 and 192.168.1.x is connected to switch3. 

All switches are controlled by a single controller, and the goal is to be able 
to dynamically reroute traffic between the subnets within the ring based on 
higher-level rules passed into the controller. 

So in normal traffic flows from switch1 to switch3, a rule can tell the 
controller to route switch1 to switch2 to switch4, for example. 

I basically have it working, I am now trying to get statistics setup to report 
on existing traffic flows.
