Embodiments of the present invention provide improved methods, techniques, and systems to compute relevant and useful information that may be presented to users in an understandable, intuitive, and actionable platform. The interactive platform includes a format and visualization that is capable of presenting data for a wide range of protocols and topologies at various functional layers of the network. The interactive platform provides selectable categories of filters which update the network data and views displayed to the users to aid in the analysis and investigation of potential root causes of problems, rather than merely presenting examples of symptoms. The interactive platform includes a method and visualization that is capable of presenting differences in network behavior at various functional layers of the network.

The invention pertains to a method of implementing packet-processing devices on multi-table datapath processors, comprising of a high-level, Turing-complete programming language that permits programmers to express time-invariant or time-variant packet-processing behavior using general-purpose programming languages, suitable compilation and analysis methods to transform a given input program into a datapath design, and a runtime control program to be executed on a general-purpose processor which can communicate with a configurable datapath element and which configures the datapath element according to the compiled datapath design and which implements appropriate dynamic control (e.g. flow table population) for the configured datapath element.
