      Hi,

      Currently, we are using following ofproto/trace command to trace to flow pipeline for the southbound device (openvswitch). The trace output doesn't carry any granular information about the flow table.

      ovs-appctl ofproto/trace $br_name "in_port=$in_port,$proto,dl_src=$dl_src,dl_dst=$dl_dst,nw_src=$nw_src,nw_dst=$nw_dst

      Since Netvirt carries neutron-north-bound information, would it possible to add the odltool feature to trace flow from source to destination similar like ofproto/trace command and includes granular information about the flow table details and flows.

      In this way, odltools helps to troubleshoot the flowpipeline w.r.t southbound devices. I appreciate if anyone has other alternative solution on it.

      Regards,
      Pradipta
