Abstract
A deterministic model is described that is used for testing networks by exercising forwarding rules (e.g., layerand layer) on network devices. Within a single network hop, a light-weight agent can be used to control the testing. One or more probe packets can be injected into an ingress pipeline of a network device using the agent executing on a local processor. The probes are detected after performing at least layerand layerlookups. Hardware in switching logic redirects the probes to the local processor in order to verify the actual forwarding behavior applied on the probe packet.
