Its IP address and connection port identifies a controller. Each OpenFlow instance can have up to three controllers. OpenFlow controllers can be added or deleted using this command.

no openflow controller-id <id>
id
OpenFlow controller identification number.
If the controller is not in use by any OpenFlow instances, the
no

ip-address
OpenFlow controller IP address.
tcp-port
Optional: Specify the port through which to connect to a controller.
Default: 6633
Range: 1024 – 65534
