Abstract

Aiming at the data plane configuration problem caused by overlapping forwarding paths of different applications in SDN, this paper proposed a Boolean function-based network reachability verification method. Firstly, it abstracted the network topology into port topology and calculated the port adjacency matrix, then it generated the path space of the network and the forwarding function of each port, and calculated the path function of each path. Finally, it judged the accessibility of path from the satisfiability of path function. Through simulation experiments, this paper studied the influence of factors such as network topology and flow rule scale on the algorithm verification efficiency, and the performance of the proposed method was compared with APV and DASDA. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively detect flow rule configuration problems in SDN. As the number of loops in the network increases and the size of the flow rules grows, the time overhead required to verify the network gradually increases. Among them, the network topology has a great influence on the path generation time, and the generation time of the forwarding function is mainly affected by the scale of the flow rule. Compared with APV and DASDA, the time to verify is shortened by an average of about 53.76% and 27.74%, respectively.
