Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for improving debugging and troubleshooting of datacenter networks, and more particularly improving the speed of forwarding/data path related problems without going into ASIC level debugging. A switch could, for example, have a processor which communicates with an ASIC. The processor can receive flow information and a notification from the ASIC, the notification indicating a predefined error condition has been identified in a packet. The processor can modify the ASIC programming based on the notification, such that the ASIC records additional, more-detailed, flow information for the switch. The processor can then receive, from the modified ASIC, the additional flow information. The additional flow information can then be used (either by the processor or by an operator) to identify the exact reason for the errors in the flow path.
