Fixed Bug
|
||||
----------------------------------------
|
||||
* On V.0.8.2, when "source port = wild and action = OFPP_ALL" entry is
|
||||
written, it is not correctly written to NetFPGA and packets and bytes
|
||||
are not correctly counted.
|
||||
While you are running OpenFlow switch, you can check the hardware information
|
||||
including its bitfile version as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
% cat /proc/net/openflow-netfpga

Known Bugs

----------------------------------------
|

* Link status detection is currently not supported.
|
||||
* There is currently no support for priority amongst wildcard-match entries.
