Adding the configuration of a controller

Add configurations of new controllers to an OpenFlow switch after they are added to SDNM. The new

configurations cannot be the same as any existing configurations on the switch. The maximum number of
supported controllers on an HP ProCurve device varies with the device model. When the maximum

number is reached, no additional configurations can be added to the device.
To add a controller configuration to an OpenFlow switch:

1.

On the Controller Setting page, click Add.

2.

On the page that appears, configure the following parameters:

{

IP Address—Select an IP address for the controller from the list.

{

Port—Configure the listening port of the controller with a fixed value of 6633.

{

Management VLAN—Enter the ID of the VLAN in which OpenFlow instances are connected to
the controller.

{

Use OOBM Port—Configure a port for out-of-band management on blade switches.

3.

Click OK.

When a virtual OpenFlow device is added on the switch, SDNM automatically adds the controller

configurations on the switch to the virtual OpenFlow device. For more information about managing

virtual OpenFlow devices, see "

Managing virtual OpenFlow devices
