Method for detecting interactions on a forwarding element in a network, the element adapted to forward data according to rules, a rule set installed on the element, and including a match set and corresponding action set, the match set including at least one match field and the action set including one or more actions wherein action set to be performed when matching a match set and a priority assigned to each rule, includes: determining one or more relations between match sets based on match field relations; determining one or more relations between action sets; determining one or more interactions between rules based on determined relations between match sets and action sets, each rule being tested against another rule for determining the interaction; and reducing the rule set to an actual rule set according to determined interactions so that the actual rule set includes only rules with no interactions among them. |
