Hello all, I am running a fat-tree topology. When I ping a host x with h1 it first send arp discovery with ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff as destination. Hence everytime a switch gets this packet it floods it. Having no TTL these packets are immortal. My question is the following. What is the proper way of getting rid of these packets? I thought of decrementing the TTL every time a packet hits a switch. However I can only drop the packet with TTL = 0 at my controller and I can't create an OpenFlow rule that matches all packets with TTL = 0 hence I lose performance having to send the packets to my controller everytime I want to drop them. What is the proper way to get rid of these packets?
Thank you in advance. -Warsang ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Ryu-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ryu-devel
