Hi Salman, I'm not familiar with the Ryu plugin, so hopefully you can get in contact with the developers to get this question answered.<div><br></div><div>Dan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, May 13, 2012 at 5:42 PM, Salman Malik <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:salmanmk@live.com" target="_blank">salmanmk@live.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<font style="font-size:10pt" color="#366092" face="Tahoma" size="2">Hi Dan and Others,<br><br>I am trying to understand the actions taken by Ryu when the new instance sends DHCP discover message to dnsmasq. When I launch new instannce it keeps on sending discover messages and controller keeps on dropping these messages. But looking at the traffic I couldn't exactly map which MAC address belonged to which entity. Can someone help me with my understanding of the MAC addresses. Using ifconfig , "ovs-ofctl show br-int" and "ovs-ofctl snoop br-int" (output shown after MAC addresses), I know exactly about some MAC addresses and can't figure out some of them:<br>
