Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to method and systems for updating hardware tables. Such methods may include receiving a flexible pipeline definition from a controller at a compiler; generating, by the compiler, a hardware table update initial instruction set; and transmitting the hardware table update initial instruction set to a network device. The network device may use the hardware table initial instruction set to configure the network device to implement the flexible pipeline definition for a network chip.
