Hi Todd,

thanks for the help.

I have few quick questions.

1) How did you add these flows ?
    i) using ovs-controller --with-flows command ii) using ovs-ofctl

2) In my understanding, ovs-ofctl adds rules directly to vswitch flow-table,
instead of setting up flow-rules at NOX(ovs-controller). Correct me!

thanks
Vishal
