1 OpenFlow 1.0 Support OpenFlow (OF) 1.0 [STD-1] is supported on the S4810 and Z9000 platforms. Unsupported OpenFlow Messages The following section provides a list of OpenFlow messages that are not supported. Table 1. Unsupported OpenFlow Messages Message System Response OFPT_SET_CONFIG This message is ignored by the switch. OFPT_QUEUE_GET_CONFIG_REQUEST OFPT_ERROR is generated in response. OFPT_PORT_MOD OFPT_ERROR is generated in response. Emergency Flows (OFPFF_EMERG) OFPT_ERROR is generated in response. Queue Statistics (OFPST_QUEUE) OFPT_ERROR is generated in response. For supported flow-match and flow action parameters for each flow type, refer to FlowTypes. The following section provides a list of actions that are not supported for any flow types. All of the following commands generate an OFPT_ERROR message. • OFPAT_STRIP_VLAN • OFPAT_SET_NW_SRC (set src-ip) • OFPAT_SET_NW_DST (set dst-ip) • OFPAT_SET_TP_SRC (set tcp/udp src-port) • OFPAT_SET_TP_DST (set tcp/udp dst-port) • OFPAT_ENQUEUE • OFPAT_OUTPUT to OFPP_IN_PORT • OFPAT_OUTPUT to OFPP_TABLE • OFPAT_OUTPUT to OFPP_NORMAL • OFPAT_OUTPUT to OFPP_LOCAL Limitations • OFPAT_OUTPUT to OFPP_FLOOD and OFPP_ALL are supported on the S4810 only. These commands are not currently supported on Z9000. • Multiple output ports are supported on S4810 only. Multiple output ports are not currently supported on Z9000. • The set/modify actions must precede the "output ports" actions. This means that the switch cannot transmit different copies if you specify multiple output ports. 5
