When \fBdl_type\fR and \fBnw_proto\fR take other values, the values of
these settings are ignored (see \fBFlow Syntax\fR above).
.
+.IP \fBtable=\fInumber\fR
+If specified, limits the flow manipulation and flow dump commands to
+only apply to the table with the given \fInumber\fR.
+\fInumber\fR is a number between 0 and 31, inclusive.
+.
+If this field is not specified, for \fBadd-flow\fR, \fBadd-flows\fR,
+\fBmod-flows\fR and \fBdel-flows\fR commands, the switch will choose
+the table for these commands to operate on; for \fBdump-flows\fR and
+\fBdump-aggregate\fR commands, statistics are gathered about flows
+from all tables.

+When this field is specified in \fBadd-flow\fR, \fBadd-flows\fR,
+\fBmod-flows\fR and \fBdel-flows\fR commands, it will activate a
+Nicira extension to OpenFlow, which as of this writing is only
+known to be implemented by Open vSwitch.

The following shorthand notations are also available:
.
This is useful because OpenFlow does not provide a way to match on the
Ethernet addresses inside ARP packets, so there is no other way to
drop spoofed ARPs other than sending every ARP packet to a controller.
+.
+.IP \fBset_queue\fB:\fIqueue\fR
+Sets the queue that should be used to \fIqueue\fR when packets are
+output. The number of supported queues depends on the switch; some
+OpenFlow implementations do not support queuing at all.
+.
+.IP \fBpop_queue\fR
+Restores the queue to the value it was before any \fBset_queue\fR
+actions were applied.
