Introduction

This document provides examples for configuring OpenFlow.

OpenFlow separates the control plane and the data forwarding plane. An OpenFlow switch matches packets against one or more flow tables. A flow table contains one or more flow entries that are deployed by the controller and packets are matched based on the matching precedence of flow entries.

These examples use VLAN-interface 1.

Prerequisites

The configuration examples in this document were created and verified in a lab environment, and all the devices were started with the factory default configuration. When you are working on a live network, make sure you understand the potential impact of every command on your network.

This document assumes that you have basic knowledge of OpenFlow.

General restrictions and guidelines

When you configure OpenFlow, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

·          Enable LLDP globally on OpenFlow switches so that the controller can learn the OpenFlow topology through LLDP.

·          Configure each OpenFlow switch with an interface for communicating with the controller so that OpenFlow instances can establish connections with the controller.

·          Configure the Loosen mode when you associate VLAN 4092 and VLAN 4094 with an OpenFlow instance so that the access ports of switches can belong to the OpenFlow instance.

Example: Configuring OpenFlow to deploy flow entries

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, configure OpenFlow to meet the following requirements:

·          The controller can deploy dynamic flow entries.

·          Host A and Host C can communicate with each other based on the flow entries deployed by the controller.

·          Host B and Host D can communicate with each other based on the flow entries deployed by the controller.
