- install_hw
-
Set or retrieve the FlowEntry installHw flag. This is used to force the OpenFlow switch to do ordered message processing.

This message has no body. Upon receipt, the switch must finish all previously received messages--including sending corresponding reply or error messages--before executing any messages beyond the Barrier Request.
