What is rlOpenFlowDefaultForwardAction?

This enumerated field sets the switch's default action for packets that don't match any installed OpenFlow flow entry: forward normally, drop, or send to the controller, defaulting to forward. An administrator tunes this to control fail-safe behavior when the SDN controller hasn't yet programmed a flow for certain traffic. For example, setting rlOpenFlowDefaultForwardAction to toController ensures unmatched packets are punted up to the SDN controller for a forwarding decision instead of being silently dropped.
