[OpenFlow] Update and Setup TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND for OpenFlow
Currently the version of TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND which I can get in Taiwan is "(TW) ver:1.0" instead of ver:1.8 I want. But, fortunately, after asking the vendor about this issue, he responds that there is no difference in hardware between "(TW) ver:1.0"and ver:1.8 or ver:1.4. That is a good news to me though. The following items are my steps to transform original TP-LINK TL-WR1043ND to OpenFlow-enabled switch. Most of information is from http://www.openflow.org/wk/index.php/Pantou_:_OpenFlow_1.0_for_OpenWRT
