Dell Force10 Software Defined Networking User Manual

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 Force10 does not recommend selecting any for the interface-type unless both of-ports and
of-vlans are required in a single instance. If 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).
Legacy LLDP must be disabled on of-ports to avoid conflicts with the controller’s version of
LLDP.
Dell Force10 does not recommend configuring global STP instances on ports using both legacy
VLANs and OF VLANs.
