I checked the specification of OpenFlow 1.3. It is written that Action List
has order in "5.11 Action List". I understood that acts was a list because
there is no order in map of Python. And the following default values should
be list of empty.
(lib/ofctl_v1_3.py:257)
inst = to_actions(dp, flow.get('actions', {}))
I checked that OpenFlow1.0 and 1.2 were the same.
Thanks,
