I'm not 100% sure what you want to do, but a packet-in is generated when a packet matches a flow that has a controller action. A packet-in is always sent to a controller. You can implement a packet-in handler that does the job you described above, and the handler can send back a flowmod message to the switch to program flows. -- IWAMOTO Toshihiro ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Ryu-devel mailing list Ryu-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ryu-devel
