[ovs-discuss] Simple IP load Balancing

[Diego Rivero]

Hi,

I don't fully understand your design but it might be better to keep the list of the IP address and the MAC address of the bucket somewhere in an OpenFlow controller. When packet_in for the first time, go through the list and decide which bucket to send the packet to.
