Command History

Version 9.2(0.0) Introduced on the S4820T and MXL Switch.

Version 9.1(0.0) Introduced on the Z9000 and S4810.

Example (VLAN

interface type)

FTOS(conf)#openflow of-instance 1

FTOS(conf-of-instance-1)#interface-type vlan

FTOS(conf-of-instance-1)#

Usage

Information

Dell Networking does not recommend selecting any for the interface-type unless both

of-ports and of-vlans are required in a single instance. If you select

any is selected for the

interface-type, the number of available ACL flows is reduced by half (128 of 256 entries

or 256 of 512 entries).

Disable legacy LLDP on of-ports to avoid conflicts with the controller’s version of LLDP.

Dell Networking does not recommend configuring global STP instances on ports using both

legacy VLANs and OF VLANs.
