[OpenFlow 1.X] The Flow Table Usage

When OpenFlow 1.0 guys try to reach the version 1.1 or more, the first question coming up with would most likely be "how to use multi-flow tables ?" Well, we could see an example in RYU OpenFlow Controller as follow: http://www.slideshare.net/yamahata/ryu-sdnframeworkupload
In page 33, there are 3 flow tables which contains match conditons and actions. It can give an initial idea for that question.






P.S: Pica8 works with Broadcom to double flow table size in its OF1.3 Switch
