Hi, I see the following error when i call insert() on a table_enrty object created on p4runtime shell in advanced branch. Any help in this regard is much appreciated. Please look at the following logs

P4Runtime sh >>> te = table_entry["IngressPipeImpl.l2_exact_table"](action = "IngressPipeImpl.set_egress_port")

P4Runtime sh >>> te.match["hdr.ethernet.dst_addr"] = ("00:00:00:00:00:1B") field_id: 1 exact { value: "\033" } P4Runtime sh >>> te.action["port_num"] = ("4") param_id: 1 value: "\004"

P4Runtime sh >>> te Out[4]: table_id: 33605373 ("IngressPipeImpl.l2_exact_table") match { field_id: 1 ("hdr.ethernet.dst_addr") exact { value: "\x1b" } } action { action { action_id: 16812802 ("IngressPipeImpl.set_egress_port") params { param_id: 1 ("port_num") value: "\x04" } } }

P4Runtime sh >>> te.insert() --verbose DEBUG:root:Inserting entry

P4RuntimeWriteException Traceback (most recent call last) in ----> 1 te.insert() --verbose

so did you solve this problem ? I have meet this one

Yes, you need to set canonical bytestrings as false before passing any flow configurations. you can do it with the following p4 runtime command. global_options["canonical_bytestrings"] = False

Thanks
