Enabling packet loss prevention for OpenFlow

forwarding

In networks that require high OpenFlow forwarding performance, packet loss might occur on the switch

during the flow entry deployment process. The packet loss then causes OpenFlow forwarding to fail. You

can enable packet loss prevention to ensure successful OpenFlow forwarding without packet loss.
When this feature is configured, ACLs cannot match packets by IPv6 address.
After you enable or disable packet loss prevention, save the configuration and restart the switch to make

the configuration take effect.
