Hi all
I am a little bit confused when interpreting the action part for the following rule, I got the rule by initiating the "ovs-ofctl dump-flows" on my mininet openflow switch.
cookie=0x2b000000000000a5, duration=528.939s, table=0, n_packets=176, n_bytes=33116, idle_age=0, priority=2,in_port=1 actions=output:4,output:2
we have multiple action ports in a certain order, when checking the "restconf/operational/opendaylight-inventory:nodes/" in the opendaylight controller we can see each action with different order
"action": [
{ "order": 0,"output-action": {
"max-length": 65535,
"output-node-connector": "2" }
{"order": 1, "output-action": {
"max-length": 65535,
"output-node-connector": "4" }
}
I am not sure how the packets hitting such entry will be forwarded, are they replicated and send over both? are they load balanced over all ports?
Best wishes,
Haitham
