    29 Preparing the switch for !OpenFlow mode includes: assigning h/w resources for !OpenFlow flows, enabling !OpenFlow mode and enabling specific versions (e.g., 1.1, 1.2 or 1.3), setting ports as crossflow, and lastly adding the 'match' and 'action' rules for expected flow. As an alternative to locally introduced flow rules using the CLI, a remote !OpenFlow controller can be configured which will then receive OpenFlow notifications (PacketIns) for flows not handled locally. The following CLI session excerpt details the commands required to accomplish the above steps:

    125 While in L2/L3 mode, the XorPlus CLI under the above account grants complete control to configure the switch and also to load/store configuration files on the root file system. However, it is suggested that experimenters preserve their configs by copying out their configurations (using tftp, etc.) to external locations, and to load them back when required. Below are the relevant CLI commands with further details in the attached PicOS configuration guide from Pica8. Please exercise prudence and caution when saving or moving configuration files in/out of the root file system.
