Enabling packet loss prevention for OpenFlow forwarding
In networks that require high OpenFlow forwarding performance, packet loss might occur on the switch during the flow entry deployment process. The packet loss then causes OpenFlow forwarding to fail. You can enable packet loss prevention to ensure successful OpenFlow forwarding without packet loss.
When this feature is configured, ACLs cannot match packets by IPv6 address.
After you enable or disable packet loss prevention, save the configuration and restart the switch to make the configuration take effect.
