I have copied the function send_lldp_packet() from
*ryu/topology/switches.py.*The only addition that I have done to the
function is to add a print statement.Now If I were to run the controller
using

* sudo ryu-manager --observe-links ryu/app/simple_switch.py*

and

make the mininet topology connect to the controller I don't see the print
*('send_lldp_packet')* coming on the screen.

I was told that the topology is cached in some structure by RYU.It would be
great if someone could point me to the structure?

def send_lldp_packet(self, port):
        try:
            port_data = self.ports.lldp_sent(port)
        except KeyError as e:
            # ports can be modified during our sleep in self.lldp_loop()
            # LOG.debug('send_lldp: KeyError %s', e)
            return
        if port_data.is_down:
            return

        print('send_lldp_packet')
        dp = self.dps.get(port.dpid, None)
        if dp is None:
            # datapath was already deleted
            return

        # LOG.debug('lldp sent dpid=%s, port_no=%d', dp.id, port.port_no)
        # TODO:XXX
        if dp.ofproto.OFP_VERSION == ofproto_v1_0.OFP_VERSION:
            actions = [dp.ofproto_parser.OFPActionOutput(port.port_no)]
            dp.send_packet_out(actions=actions, data=port_data.lldp_data)
        elif dp.ofproto.OFP_VERSION >= ofproto_v1_2.OFP_VERSION:
            actions = [dp.ofproto_parser.OFPActionOutput(port.port_no)]
            out = dp.ofproto_parser.OFPPacketOut(
                datapath=dp, in_port=dp.ofproto.OFPP_CONTROLLER,
                buffer_id=dp.ofproto.OFP_NO_BUFFER, actions=actions,
                data=port_data.lldp_data)
            dp.send_msg(out)
        else:
            LOG.error('cannot send lldp packet. unsupported version. %x',
                      dp.ofproto.OFP_VERSION)
