REDUCED ORTHOGONAL NETWORK POLICY SET SELECTION

In some examples, a method includes accessing an orthogonal network policy set that represents a first intent-based network policy and a second intent-based network policy. The method may also include determining multiple reduced orthogonal network policy sets from the orthogonal network policy set. The multiple reduced orthogonal network policy sets may differ from one another, and each represent the first and second intent-based network policies. The method may further include selecting a particular reduced orthogonal network policy set among the multiple reduced orthogonal network policy sets to implement on a target switching device.
