Flow Action
OpenFlow actions do not change for Layer23 support. All actions currently supporting Layer 2 or Layer 3 flows continue to be supported. Actions currently supported are listed separately for different devices.
Flow Actions on RUCKUS ICX Devices
When a matching flow entry is found, a set of actions can be applied for processing the packet. The system supports the following actions:
- Forward a packet to a port.
- Forward a packet to a set of ports.
- Forward a packet to a controller.
- Forward a packet received from a controller to a port or set of ports.
- Drop the packet.
- Keep, add, modify, or remove the VLAN ID or the VLAN priority. Modifying the VLAN ID per port is also supported (each destination port can send a packet with a different VLAN ID for the same matching rule).
- Modify the destination MAC address for Layer 2 flows.
