I guess we need decision here. In md-sal there should not exist 2 ways to the same goal and app should not be forced to distill protocol version of particular device and choose the right way depending on that version. </p> <p>Having 2 sources for the same action is definitely a bad idea. I guess we should change md-sal models so that only one way of packetOut actions is supported where possible (presuming that most of of-1.0 features are supported in higher versions). But this would break API towards app now.</p> <p>Now - do you think that there is possibility for VTN to change packetOut actions adding code? We can definitely write hotfix for helium so that if only one of mentioned actions is provided then it would be propagated. But this is not the way to a good maintainable code.</p> <p>(In reply to michal rehak from comment #4)<br/> > Hi Hideyuki,<br/> (snip)<br/> > <br/> > Now - do you think that there is possibility for VTN to change packetOut<br/> > actions adding code?
