Parameters
instance-id: Specifies an OpenFlow instance by its ID in the range of 1 to 4094.
group-id: Specifies a group entry by its ID in the range of 0 to 4294967040. If this argument is not
specified, the command displays information about all group entries of the OpenFlow instance.
Usage guidelines
The group entries are referenced by flow entries to make the OpenFlow device support more packet
forwarding functions, for example, multicast and broadcast. Each group table contains multiple action
buckets. The actions in the buckets of a group entry are performed for packets matching the group entry.
You cannot configure group entries on the OpenFlow devices. Instead, you can configure group entries
on the controller and issue the group entries to the OpenFlow device.
