Brekeke SIP Server Wiki

OpenFlow Settings

[General] section

Mode:

Select a connection mode to an OpenFlow switch.  For example, if you select “Server” mode, Brekeke SIP Server behaves as a server of OpenFlow connection.

Select “Server” mode if you use an OpenFlow switch based on an Open vSwitch (OVS).

 

Switch (IP address:port):

Enter the IP address and port of an OpenFlow switch.

This field is used when you select “Client” mode.
(Example: 172.16.200.102:6634)

 

Listening Port:

Enter the port that Brekeke SIP Server is listening for Openflow connection.

This field is used when you select “Server” mode.
(Example: 6633)

 

Network Gateway:

Enter the IP address of a gateway which is used for data traffic (service network) in the network. If the field is left blank, Brekeke SIP Server tries to detect the default gateway.

 

Interface Name:

Select the network interface that is used for data traffic (service network).

 


[Initial Commands] section

You can define initial commands which are executed when OpenFlow connection is established.
The field accepts the same command synatx which dpctl and ovs-ofctl employ.

Example:

------------------------------------------------------------
add-flow ipv6,idle_timeout=0,actions=flood
add-flow ipv4,idle_timeout=0,actions=flood
add-flow arp,idle_timeout=0,actions=flood
------------------------------------------------------------

 


[RTP relay] section ※1

Set the range of UDP ports that will be assigned for relaying RTP packets at the OpenFlow Switch.

 

※1. The switch needs to support OpenFlow 1.0 (Layer 2,3,4).

 


[Block List] section

Use OpenFlow to block packets:

If you set this setting to “yes“, OpenFlow switch blocks packets sent from the IP addresses that are listed in the Brekeke SIP Server’s Block List database.
