Abstract

Policy and path updates area unit common causes of network instability, resulting in service disruptions or vulnerable intermediate states. during this letter, we tend to propose the Reverse Update, an update theme for software system outlined Networking that guarantees to preserve properties of flows throughout the transition time. we tend to prove through a proper model that the proposal achieves consistent policy updates, during which in-transit packets are continually handled within the next forwarding hops by identical or a newer policy. the most contributions are: (i) a relaxation of the conception of per-packet-consistency within the information plane of software system outlined Networking; and (ii) a policy update theme, evidenced to be consistent and economical. A software system outlined Networking machine was developed and valid. The results of our simulations show that the planned Reverse Update theme is quicker and has lower overhead than the present Two-Phase Update planned within the literature.
