Query result flow control in a network switch

Abstract:

A network device includes a standing query instance (SQI) and a database. The SQI is programmed to generate an output stored in a low resource storage table of a database. The database is programmed to monitor a storage capacity of the low resource storage table based on at least, in part, the output stored in the low resource storage table; determine, based on the monitoring, when the storage capacity reaches a predetermined amount; and disable an upstream element in response to the determination.
