"weight" should be determined only when "OFPGT_SELECT" type.
What does "split" exactly mean?
To do round-robin or load-balance on two path, you should use "OFPGT_SELECT".

For the details of each OFPGT_* types, please refer to "5.6.1 Group Types" on
the OpenFlow Spec 1.3.5.


Thanks,

Hi


Thanks for your help.

I have used ".OFPGT_ALL" in ".OFPGroupMod" message, and found that the flow is splitting. But there 
is a serious problem: if I set any value in  "weight" field, except 0, then the flow does not split into 
multiple sub-flows. I have also noticed that if I set 0 in  "weight" field, then the flow sends an equal 
number of packets in each sub-flows and the number of packets of a sub-flow is equivalent to the number of packets of 
the flow. I used the following code,

         ofproto = datapath.ofproto
         parser = datapath.ofproto_parser
         group_id = 1
         action01 = [parser.OFPActionOutput(2)]
         action02 = [parser.OFPActionOutput(4)]
         weight01 = 0
         weight02 = 0
         watch_port = ofproto_v1_3.OFPP_ANY
         watch_group = ofproto_v1_3.OFPQ_ALL
         bucket01 = parser.OFPBucket(weight01, watch_port, watch_group, 
action01)
         bucket02 = parser.OFPBucket(weight02, watch_port, watch_group, 
action02)
         req = parser.OFPGroupMod(datapath, ofproto.OFPFC_ADD, ofproto.OFPGT_ALL, 
group_id=1, buckets=[bucket01, bucket02])     #  (2) ofproto.OFPGT_SELECT --> 
ofproto.OFPGT_ALL
         datapath.send_msg(req)

(1) How can I split a flow into multiple sub-flows defining the percentage of 
each sub-flows compared to the flow?
(2) I want to know the use, and application of OFPGT_INDRIECT, and OFPGT_FF.

Hi,

How about using ofproto.OFPGT_ALL instead of ofproto.OFPGT_SELECT?
Please refer to "5.6.1 Group Types" on OpenFlow Spec 1.3.5 for the difference
between the types of group action.

Thanks,

Hi


I want to split a flow into two flows, e.g., a flow entering into switch 1 will
be splitted into two flows going to switch 3 and switch 5.



                  ________________ switch 3_____________

                  |
           |

h1------switch 1
   switch 4-------- h2

                 |_________________ switch 5____________|



Now, to split the flow I have used the following code, however, I have found
that flow is not splitting and passing through only one link without sending any
packets in other link.

1. Could you please help me identifying the problem?

2. Could you please share necessary resources/links/guidelines of load sharing
in SDN using RYU so that I can have workable implementation?
