Abstract
A system determines a first set of policies, wherein at least one policy entry for a destination role comprises a source role, a traffic attribute, and an action to be taken for the packet. The system represents the policies as a matrix, wherein a first entry in the matrix indicates the source and destination role, the traffic attribute, and the action of the at least one policy entry. The system replaces, in the first entry, the action with the destination role if the action indicates to allow the packet, and with a null value if the action indicates to deny the packet, to obtain a first data structure with entries indicating, for a respective source role, traffic attributes and corresponding sets of allowed destination roles. The system resolves an overlapping pair comprising a first and a second traffic attribute to obtain a second set of synthesized policies.
