[ovs-discuss] Can not modify the nw_proto / ip_proto field

Hi,

I am trying to modify the ip_proto field using an SET_FIELD action.
However, it seems that OVS does not allow that, and ip_porto is
only-read field.  error message:

destination field nw_proto is not writable

Why is this like that? In the documentation of ovs-ofctl and my
openflow controller says that all the match fields can be used as an
action field. Is there a way I could fix that? I am using OVS 2.5.90.

Richard
