where server-ip refers to the server where you have stored the certicates, and username and password refers to the credentials you
need to access the server with the certicates.
3 Perform the steps described in the Congure OpenFlow protocol on the switch topic to congure OpenFlow.
OpenFlow commands
controller
Congures an OpenFlow controller that the logical switch instance connects to.
Syntax
controller ipv4 ipv4-address [port port-number] [security {none|tls}]
Parameters
ipv4 ipv4-address—Enter ipv4, then the IP address of the controller.
port port-number—Enter the keyword, then the port number, from 1 to 65,535. The default port is 6653.
security {none|tls}—Specify the type of connection. The default is security none. The TCP
connection is used.
Default TCP. The default port number is 6653.
Command Mode OPENFLOW SWITCH CONFIGURATION
Usage Information If you specify the security tls option, the OpenFlow application looks for the following certicates and private
key in the following locations specied for certicate-based authentication. For information about obtaining
certicates and installing them on the switch and the controller, see Establish TLS connection between the switch
and the controller.
ca_cert (certicate
that identies the
controller as being
trustworthy)
/config/etc/opt/dell/os10/openflow/cacert.pem
certicate
(certicate that
identies the switch
as being
trustworthy)
/config/etc/opt/dell/os10/openflow/sc-cert.pem
private key (the
private key
corresponding to
the switch
certicate)
/config/etc/opt/dell/os10/openflow/sc-privkey.pem
Example
The following example congures an OpenFlow controller with IP address 10.11.63.56 on port 6633 for the logical
switch instance, of-switch-1.
OS10# configure terminal
OS10 (config)# openflow
OS10 (config-openflow)# switch of-switch-1
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)# controller ipv4 10.11.63.56 port 6633
OS10 (config-openflow-switch)#
