Disclosed are a packet output control method and a network device using the same. According to the present invention, a packet output control method, as a method to process a flow in multiple flow tables (N tables; N is a natural number, not less than 2) connected with a pipe line, includes a step in which an inflow packet of the flow passes from a first table via an Nth-1 table among multiple tables; a step in which the packet passes via the Nth-1 table and then is commanded by the Nth-1 table to process an Nth egress table; and a step in which the packet is outputted after the processing of the Nth table. Therefore, the flexible control of final output is enabled through various operations using output port information. |
