Hi,

I added the following lines to the event handler

        if (eth.dst == eth.src):
            print(f'EQUAL MACs: SRC: {eth.src} == DST: {eth.dst}')
            return

EQUAL MACs: SRC: 00:1e:be:17:eb:9a == DST: 00:1e:be:17:eb:9a
EQUAL MACs: SRC: c4:71:fe:10:fe:00 == DST: c4:71:fe:10:fe:00
EQUAL MACs: SRC: 00:1e:be:17:eb:9a == DST: 00:1e:be:17:eb:9a

I see lots of equal MACs but now I get no new flows added:

~$ curl -X GET http://198.8.8.235:8080/stats/flow/176199429686713; echo
{"176199429686713": [{"priority": 0, "cookie": 0, "idle_timeout": 0,
"hard_timeout": 0, "byte_count": 51783, "duration_sec": 319,
"duration_nsec": 180000000, "packet_count": 648, "length": 80, "flags": 0,
"actions": ["OUTPUT:CONTROLLER"], "match": {}, "table_id": 0}]}

regards,

Diarmuid
