Darrell, Thanks, In the next version, I will update the code to send
garp requests.

garp requests are responded-to by the ARP responder flows. This interferes
with sending garps using the packet out destination OFPP_TABLE which
injects the packet into the ingress pipeline. So a change in needed
the arp-responder flows to not respond to garps. Alternatively, I can change
the packet out destination to directly output garps onto the localnet ofport.
