Matching restrictions

VLAN matching

Table 1

describes the VLAN matching restrictions when an OpenFlow instance is associated with VLANs.

Table 1 VLAN matching

VLAN Mask Matching packets

- -

All packets in the VLANs that are associated the
OpenFlow instance.

0 -

Packets without a VLAN tag. The PVID of the ingress port
must be associated the OpenFlow instance.

0 Value

Unsupported.

Valid VLAN

-/Value Unsupported.

0x1000 -/Value(except non-0x1000) Unsupported.

0x1000 0x1000

Packets with a VLAN tag. The VLAN ID of the VLAN tag
must be associated with the OpenFlow instance.

Valid VLAN |
0x1000

-/Value

Matching packets by the combination of the VLAN ID
and VLAN mask. The VLANs obtained through the
combination of the VLAN ID and VLAN mask must be

associated with the OpenFlow instance.

Other Other

Unsupported.

Protocol packet matching

If protocols are enabled, protocol packets (except LLDP frames) are processed by the corresponding

protocols instead of the OpenFlow protocol.
For more information about LLDP frame matching, see "

LLDP frame matching

."

Metadata matching

Metadata passes matching information between flow tables. The controller deploys metadata matching
entries only to non-first flow tables. If the controller deploys a metadata matching entry to the first flow

table, the switch returns an unsupported flow error.
