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 2):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein after the determining, by the controller, the first intermediate node on the flow path, the method further comprises:\n when the conflict is caused by an added firewall rule, and when an address range of a flow table rule in the first intermediate node is narrower than an address range of current valid deny rules of a firewall, controlling, by the controller, the first intermediate node to discard the data flow; when the address range of the flow table rule in the first intermediate node is wider than the address range of current valid deny rules of the firewall, determining, by the controller, conflict data that conflicts with the current valid deny rules of the firewall in the data flow; and controlling, by the controller, the first intermediate node to discard the conflict data.
