Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a system for configuring a flow table in an OpenFlow network, which can enhance a service switchover adaptation capability of a network system, and improve the working efficiency. The method includes determining, by a control device, a type of a service needing to be forwarded by a switch device; determining, according to the type of the service needing to be forwarded by the switch device and a prestored correspondence between a service type and flow table matching capability information, flow table matching capability information corresponding to the service type, and sending a flow table configuration message to the switch device, where the flow table configuration message carries the flow table matching capability information corresponding to the service type, so that the switch device configures, according to the flow table matching capability information, a flow table required for the service type.

Abstract translation: 一种用于配置OpenFlow网络中的流表的方法，装置和系统，其可以增强网络系统的业务切换适配能力，并提高工作效率。 该方法包括由控制设备确定需要由交换设备转发的业务的类型; 根据需要由交换机转发的业务的类型和业务类型与流表匹配能力信息之间的预先存储的对应关系，确定与业务类型对应的流表匹配能力信息，并发送流表配置消息 所述流表配置消息携带与所述服务类型对应的流表匹配能力信息，所述切换装置根据所述流表匹配能力信息配置所述服务类型所需的流表。
