True
False
OpenFlow is made up of
Group Tables
Flow Tables
Group & Flow Tables
SDN-Devices
OpenFlow provides communication between the SDN controller and SDN datapath (containing switches)
True
False
Select the four basic actions of the OpenFlow Action item in the OpenFlow table
Forward to a given port
Forward to a given switch
Forward packet as normal
Drop packet flow
Encapsulate and forward to a controller
Decapsulate and forward to a controller
Route packet through the network
In an OpenFlow network, each OpenFlow switch must contain at least 1 flow table
True
False
Each item in an OpenFlow table contains
Header Fields
Action
Statistics
Counters
Match fields
What does the statistics item in an OpenFlow table track?
Packets and bytes for each flow
Bandwidth usage
Network access violations
Number of hops to the destination for a flow
