Abstract

See full text

A plurality of logical nodes are identified from a plurality of elements on a network, where the plurality of elements include security devices. One or more path entries may be determined for at least some of the logical nodes. Each path entry is associated with one of the logical nodes and specifies a set of communication packets, as well as a next node to receive the communication packets from the associated node. The path entries are used to characterize at least a substantial portion of a network path that is to carry communication packets in the set of communication packets.
