advantage of hardware switching features.
Creating a hardware table module is straightforward. Create a
-directory in the openflow source tree named datapath/hwtable-NAME,
+directory in the openflow source tree named datapath/hwtable_NAME,
where NAME identifies the hardware that the module supports. Populate
that directory with the C source files that comprise the module, plus
a file named Modules.mk that specifies how to build the module. This
Each hardware table module's code is encapsulated in a directory, so
it is easy to separate a hardware table implementation from OpenFlow.
-Simply package up the contents of the hwtable-NAME directory and
+Simply package up the contents of the hwtable_NAME directory and
distribute it for builders to extract into their distribution
directory.
