Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to the communications field, and specifically, to a flow table processing method and an apparatus. The method includes: monitoring, by a switch, a flow table load of the switch; when the flow table load of the switch exceeds a preset threshold, determining, by the switch, a diffusion target of a target data flow according to a matching rule of a diffusive flow table; and when the determined diffusion target is a neighboring switch of the switch, forwarding, by the switch, the target data flow to the neighboring switch. When the flow table load of the switch exceeds the preset threshold, the switch may have been attacked. A data flow that fails to be matched to a flow entry is forwarded to the neighboring switch according to a diffusion probability, for processing by the neighboring switch.

Claim (Index 8):
The method according to  claim 6 , wherein the determining, by the controller, the diffusive flow table of the first switch according to the diffusion probability of each forwarding path comprises:\n determining, by the controller according to the diffusion probability of each forwarding path, a numeric interval corresponding to each forwarding path; and determining, by the controller, the diffusive flow table of the first switch according to each forwarding path and the numeric interval corresponding to each forwarding path.
