Data traffic not happening over Openflow using flows

Hi ,

I have configured Openflow in aggregate mode and established the connection between openflow switch and controller

 

Below is my setup details:

SRC host (VLAN 600) <--> (VLAN 600) Openflow Switch (VLAN 600) <--> (VLAN 600) DST host

 

When the openflow is disabled, ping from source to destination via openflow switch is successful whereas when the openflow is enabled, ping is getting failed as the VLAN 600 is memeber of openflow instance.

 

Note: ports which connected to Source and Destination are in tagged mode to VLAN 600

 

I have added flows (have added 2 flows for to and fro data traffic) in this openflow switch in Software table via controller by using Curl command. I could see the flows getting added in switch. But, it is not getting effected as the "Packets" and "Bytes" fields shows zero even with data traffic in place.

 

It seems I am missing some configuration in switch to make the added flows get effected.

 

Note: I have tried by enabling as well disabling the egress-only-ports. But, didn't see any difference in output.

 

I have attached the screenshot of flow table entries of switch which captured from controller. Kindly take a look for reference.

 

Controller Version is 2.3.5 and switch 3500 yl with version v1

 

Also Tried with v2 version.

When I disable openflow traffic flows fine(Ping success) and if I enable openflow it fails.

 

Kindly let me know your suggestion to resolve this issue.

 

Regards
Chethan
