Abstract
A traffic offloading method, apparatus, and system, relates to the field of communications technologies, and resolves a problem of difficulty in implementing traffic offloading on a downstream node in a solution of the prior art. The method may include receiving, by a downstream node, flow table support capability information of an upstream node, determining, according to the flow table support capability information, whether the upstream node supports a downstream node flow table, where the downstream node flow table includes at least one flow entry, and each flow entry corresponds to one flow, and sending the downstream node flow table to the upstream node when the upstream node supports the downstream node flow table.
