dpid-mac-address

Specifies the MAC address bits of the datapath ID (DPID) of the logical switch instance.

Syntax
dpid-mac-address MAC-address
Parameters
MAC-address—48-bit MAC address in hexadecimal notation, nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn
Default
MAC address
Command Mode
OPENFLOW SWITCH CONFIGURATION
Usage Information

The controller uses the DPID to identify the logical switch instance. The DPID is a 64-bit number that is sent to the controller in the features_reply message. The DPID is constructed from the instance ID, which is the most significant 16 bits (default to 0) and the DPID-MAC-ADDRESS, which is the least significant 48 bits. OS10 currently supports only one logical switch instance and the instance ID is automatically set to 0. This value is not configurable.

You can use this command to modify the MAC address bits of the DPID.

Example

DPID MAC address is 00:00:00:00:00:0a.

OS10 (config)# openflow

OS10 (config-openflow-switch)#
