Abstract:
Conflict detection and resolution methods and apparatuses relate to the field of communications technologies. The conflict detection method includes: acquiring, by a controller, a flow path of a data flow on a network, where the flow path is used to indicate a path along which the data flow reaches an address in a destination address range from an address in a source address range through at least two intermediate nodes on the network, a first flow table rule is added to or deleted from flow tables of the at least two intermediate nodes, and the first flow table rule is any flow table rule; and determining, by the controller, whether a conflict exists according to an address range of the flow path and an address range of a security policy.

Claim (Index 13):
The conflict resolution apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the instructions cause the one or more processors, when executed by the one or more processors, further to, after the determining that the conflict is caused by the added firewall rule, determine whether the address range of the flow table rule on the first intermediate node is narrower than the address range of the current valid deny rules of the firewall.
