Subject: ovs-dpctl: Allow requesting the port number from "add-if" command.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4b3b8d8fa14bbe4000c6591eef74e0a0d51a3929;p=openvswitch

ovs-dpctl: Allow requesting the port number from "add-if" command.

The datapath port number influences the OpenFlow port number in
ovs-vswitchd.  The new "port_no" option for the "add-if" command allows
the user to request a specific datapath port number.

Feature #12642
