SWITCHING SYSTEM AND MONITORING CENTRALISATION MANAGEMENT METHOD Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC H04L12/00 H04L12/70 H04L12/943 

FIELD: radio engineering, communication.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a system of switches which control routing. A control protocol of a transmitter is used based on the open flow (OpenFlow) technique to control the monitoring function of the switch system, and centralised control of the monitoring can be realised as the whole network and the monitoring result is reflected on the routing control. The switch has a flow table for packet transfer and a flow table for monitoring. Both of the tables are searched for one packet and a multi-hit operation is performed to execute the operation of each of the entries. That is, both of the tables are searched and the packet is transferred according to corresponding flow entries.

EFFECT: allowing free change of a grain degree of monitoring without being conscious of a routing control.
