Error creating rules in different tables other than 200 (OF. 1.3)

Hi guys,

I'm using three HP 3500y switches running OF. 1.3.

I've tried to write rules into different Table ID, other than 200, such as 0 and 100, but a silent failure occours.

When I look into switches flow tables, there is no rule created. The SDN VAN Controller does not alert me about any error while creating these kind of rules.

Debugging with Wireshark is possible to see OF_ERROR messages, as you can see in this dump:

Openflow Protocol
Header
Version: 0x04
Type: Error (SM) - OFPT_ERROR (1)
Length: 76
Transaction ID: 1619
