Thanks for your reply.
Indeed, it's better to install the LLDP flow in the l2_multi or
topo_proactive other than in the discovery module, but it doesn't that
matter. Without this flow, by default ,the LLDP packet still will be
forwarded to the controller anyway.

In the case of l2_multi, there isn't a point. But l2_multi isn't the only
component that uses discovery. Ones that don't clear the table don't have this
issue at all. And some that do clear the table (e.g., topo_proactive) install
the table entry themselves.

Hi,
I found in the discovery module, the controller will install a flow for the
LLDP packet to every switch, however, in the l2_multi module, the
controller will clear all flows when there is a link event for
re-calculating the path , which means the flow installed from discovery
module will only
