Zusammenfassung:Some embodiments provide a method. The method determines a forwarding path for a packet set by using a data plane model of a network. The method identifies a rule table implementing a step in the forwarding path of the packet set. The method retrieves an indexing file at a scalable storage based on the identified rule table. The indexing file stores rule entries for one or more rule tables of the network. The method retrieves provenance data regarding a rule of the rule table that is applicable to the packet set from the indexing file. The method presents the retrieved provenance information of the identified rule.
