 The ``NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG`` message directly sets all of the values in this
 table for the current connection.  The ``OFPC_INVALID_TTL_TO_CONTROLLER`` bit
 in the ``OFPT_SET_CONFIG`` message controls the setting for
-``OFPR_INVALID_TTL`` for the "master" role.
+``OFPR_INVALID_TTL`` for the "primary" role.
