Abstract
Methods and apparatus to capture data plane information are disclosed. An example method includes capturing, via an observation point deployed between core routers of a network, data plane information traversing between the core routers of the network; generating an observational data plane using the data plane information captured via the observation point; and conveying the observational data plane to a data plane process implemented separately from a control plane process.
