Abstract
In Software-Defined Networking (SDN) it is important to efficiently partition the rule table into sub-tables and distribute them to the multiple switches over the network. In this paper we proposed an optimal rule table distribution strategy by applying satisfiability (SAT)-based approach. N-coloring problem for partitioning is formulated as conjunctive normal form (CNF), and by repeatedly running SAT solver we can obtain maximum number of partitions.
