set_routes Command

This command instructs the switch driver to create one or more routes in the switch hardware. A single route description is formed by the following three comma-separated values enclosed in double quote characters: group name, input port name, and output port name.

The two ports must belong to the same group. If multiple routes are described, each route description must be separated by a space character as shown in the example below.

Command Sent from FlexOTO

set_routes "<group-name>, <input-port-name>, <output-port-name>" "<group-name>, <input-port-name>, <output-port-name>" ...

This example creates two switch routes in a switch model that has multiple internal switches. Notice that the string delimiter between routes is a space (" ") character. The delimiter between a route's arguments is the comma character.

set_routes "SW1, 4, Out" "SW2, 2, 6"

Two switch routes in a switch module that has a single internal switch. Notice that because there is only one internal switch, the <group-name> is not included:

set_routes ", 4, Out" ", 2, 6"

Response Returned from Driver

This command should always return a value of DONE. If the switch responds with an error, the error should be returned before the DONE value.

print('error_message')  # if any
print("DONE")
