Command Mode OPENFLOW SWITCH CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
NOTE: Only use this command should be run when the logical switch instance is disabled. Use the
shutdown command to disable the logical switch instance. After you run this command, enter the
no shutdown command to enable the logical switch instance again.
● When you specify, negotiate, the switch negotiates versions 1.0 and 1.3 and selects the highest of
the versions supported by the controller. The negotiation is based on the hello handshake described in
the OpenFlow Specification 1.3.
● When you specify, 1.0, the switch establishes a connection with the controller that supports version
1.0 only.
● When you specify, 1.3, the switch establishes a connection with the controller that supports version
1.3 only.
Example
The following example shows a logical switch instance, of-switch-1, configured to interact with controllers
that support the OpenFlow protocol version 1.3.
OS10 (config)# openflow
OS10 (config-openflow)# switch of-switch-1
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)# shutdown
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)# protocol-version 1.3
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)# no shutdown
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)#
