[ovs-discuss] Capturing timestamp in a switch

[Justin Pettit]

Please don't drop the list.

The dataplane is just forwarding packets through it, so I'm not sure what it would store.  For a particular datapath flow, we keep the last time that a packet hit it, but that's about it.  As I mentioned, if you want to send copies of packets to a collector, you could look at sFlow or IPFIX.
