User Guidelines
This command configures the switch to select an IP address from a particular
type of interface. The selected IP address is used as the local end-point of the
IP connections to the OpenFlow controllers.
The administrator can allow the switch to automatically assign an IP address
to the OpenFlow feature or to specifically select which address should be
used. The administrator can also direct the OpenFlow feature to always use
the out-of-band interface.
When in auto mode, the switch selects an IP address from an interface in this
order:
1
The loopback interfaces.
2
The routing interfaces.
3
The out-of-band interface.
