Hi all,

Sorry to bother you.
I setup Open vSwitch with NOX successfully. But there is one problem :
I started my component of NOX include link_event, which uses LLDP protocol to monitor the stats of link. 
NOX sends LLDP packet to vswitch and requests vswitch to output the packet to specified port.
Now the problem is ovs cannot know the protocol and reply error packet to NOX.

What should I do to let ovs can know the protocol?

Thanks very much.
