Interface FlowRuleService

All Superinterfaces:

ListenerService<FlowRuleEvent,FlowRuleListener>

public interface FlowRuleService
extends ListenerService<FlowRuleEvent,FlowRuleListener>

Service for injecting flow rules into the environment and for obtaining information about flow rules already in the environment. This implements semantics of a distributed authoritative flow table where the master copy of the flow rules lies with the controller and the devices hold only the 'cached' copy.

Method Detail

getFlowRuleCount

int getFlowRuleCount()

Returns the number of flow rules in the system.

Returns:

flow rule count

getFlowEntries

Iterable<FlowEntry> getFlowEntries(DeviceId deviceId)

Returns the collection of flow entries applied on the specified device. This will include flow rules which may not yet have been applied to the device.

Parameters:

deviceId - device identifier

Returns:

collection of flow rules

applyFlowRules

void applyFlowRules(FlowRule... flowRules)

Applies the specified flow rules onto their respective devices. These flow rules will be retained by the system and re-applied anytime the device reconnects to the controller.

Parameters:

flowRules - one or more flow rules

purgeFlowRules

void purgeFlowRules(DeviceId deviceId)

Purges all the flow rules on the specified device.

Parameters:

deviceId - device identifier

removeFlowRules

void removeFlowRules(FlowRule... flowRules)

Removes the specified flow rules from their respective devices. If the device is not presently connected to the controller, these flow will be removed once the device reconnects.

Parameters:

flowRules - one or more flow rules

removeFlowRulesById

void removeFlowRulesById(ApplicationId appId)

Removes all rules submitted by a particular application.

Parameters:

appId - ID of application whose flows will be removed

getFlowRulesById

@Deprecated
Iterable<FlowRule> getFlowRulesById(ApplicationId id)

Deprecated.

Returns a list of rules with this application ID.

Parameters:

id - the application ID to look up

Returns:

collection of flow rules

getFlowEntriesById

Iterable<FlowEntry> getFlowEntriesById(ApplicationId id)

Returns a list of rules with this application ID.

Parameters:

id - the application ID to look up

Returns:

collection of flow rules

getFlowRulesByGroupId

Iterable<FlowRule> getFlowRulesByGroupId(ApplicationId appId,
                                         short groupId)

Returns a list of rules filtered by application and group id.

Note that the group concept here is simply a logical grouping of flows. This is not the same as a group in the GroupService, and this method will not return flows that are mapped to a particular Group.

Parameters:

appId - the application ID to look up

groupId - the group ID to look up

Returns:

collection of flow rules

apply

void apply(FlowRuleOperations ops)

Applies a batch operation of FlowRules.

Parameters:

ops - batch operation to apply

getFlowTableStatistics

Iterable<TableStatisticsEntry> getFlowTableStatistics(DeviceId deviceId)

Returns the collection of flow table statistics of the specified device.

Parameters:

deviceId - device identifier

Returns:

collection of flow table statistics
