Abstract

A system includes a network device. The network device is to receive a packet comprising metadata. Responsive to determining that an entry in a match action table matches a match action lookup tuple based on the metadata, identify a debug instruction associated with the entry, the entry in the match action table identifying an action to be performed with respect to the packet. The debug instruction is executed. At least a portion of the debug instruction is executed prior to performing the action identified in the entry of the action table.
