Troubleshooting an instance

To troubleshoot instances, check the following.

  • To connect a controller, there must be ip-connectivity between controller and switch over the controller VLAN.

  • The controller must be capable of negotiating to a version equal to or less than the configured or supported version

  • Use the show openflow command to check instances.

Example

switch(openflow)# show openflow
OpenFlow : Enabled
Egress Only Ports Mode : Disabled
