Hi guys!

I use Mininet and Ryu Controller (4.15).

I launch h1 ping h2 -c 5.

With the REst call /stats/flow/<dpid> I see that packet_count of OUTPUT:2 is 5, but packet_count of OUTPUT:1 is 6.

Why?? The reason is the first ARP packet, from h1 to broadcast?

Are you using ryu/app/simple_switch_13.py?
If so, almost right.

On the following topology, for example:

       Ryu
       |
h1 --- s1 --- h2

The first ARP packet from h1 will be broadcasted and flow entry like "match=<h1's 
MAC>,
action=<output to port1>" will not be installed on s1, but for replay for this 
ARP will
be unicasted and flow entry like "match=<h2's MAC>, action=<output to port2>" 
will be
installed.
The flow entry of "match=<h1's MAC>, action=<output to port1>" will be 
installed when
the first ICMP packet and not be counted when forwarded h1-->h2, then the 
packet_count
for h1-->h2 will be 1 packet smaller than that for h2-->h1.

Please note this is depending on simple_switch_13.py implementation, and not 
always
true if you are using other applications.

Thanks,
Iwase




Thanks,


Nicholas.
