Configuring OpenFlow Instances with Multiple VLANs
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that the OpenFlow instance VLAN membership be identical throughout the controlled network topology. If an OpenFlow instance contains a set of VLANs on one switch, then neighboring switches should also have an OpenFlow instance with the same set of VLANs. For network topologies that contain both ProVision and Comware OpenFlow instances, configure the ProVision aggregate mode and Comware Openflow instances to contain all VLANs.
You should untag inter-switch links in the OpenFlow instance VLANs. Alternatively, you can tag these links in the OpenFlow instance VLANs. Default the untagged traffic to one of the OpenFlow instance VLANs.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends the following mixed ProVision/Comware topology switch configuration:
ProVision – ProVision
Instance: Aggregate OpenFlow instance on all switches or virtualized only instances on all switches
Interface: Any valid configuration
ProVision – Comware
Instance: ProVision Aggregate, Comware group = all
Interface: Comware interswitch link port PVID in OpenFlow instance
Comware – Comware
Instance: Consistent OpenFlow instance VLAN configuration throughout topology
Interface: Interswitch link port PVID in OpenFlow VLAN
