[ovs-discuss] Name of port in OFP_SWITCH_FEATURES

Hi,

I am using OpenvSwitch kernel datapath with openflowd.  When I connect
the kernel datapath path to the controller, the controller (written in
Python) sends a features reply with a list of ports.  In that list of
ports, I have added eth1 to the datapath, but the name of the port is
"eth1\u0001".

I am wondering why there is a unicode following the name?  Is that any
reason for this?  The internal port "dp0" does not seem to have that
problem.

Thanks in advance.

Regards
KK
