I created a flow with different flowID in URI and xml body as stated below:

PUT : http://192.168.56.1:8080/restconf/config/opendaylight-inventory:nodes/node/openflow:1/table/0/flow/24

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<flow xmlns="urn:opendaylight:flow:inventory">
<priority>2</priority>
<flow-name>Foo</flow-name>
<match>
<ethernet-match>
<ethernet-type>
<type>2048</type>
</ethernet-type>
</ethernet-match>
<ipv4-destination>10.0.10.2/24</ipv4-destination>
</match>
<id>25</id>
<table_id>1</table_id>
<instructions>
<instruction>
<order>0</order>
<apply-actions>
<action>
<order>0</order>
<dec-nw-ttl/>
</action>
</apply-actions>
</instruction>
</instructions>
</flow>

The flow gets created and RESPONSE is 200 ok.

When I hit the below URI it fails to generate the xml.
GET : http://192.168.56.1:8080/restconf/config/opendaylight-inventory:nodes/node/openflow:1/table/0/flow/24

On the other hand when I hit the below URI, response is 404 Not Found
GET : http://192.168.56.1:8080/restconf/config/opendaylight-inventory:nodes/node/openflow:1/table/0/flow/25

The controller should not allow to create a flow with diffrent flowId in URI and xml body at the first place itself.
