Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method for implementing an E-tree service and a provider edge device, and relates to the field of network communications technologies. A local PE device obtains leaf PE attribute information of a peer provider edge PE device; when the leaf PE attribute information of the peer PE device indicates that the peer PE device is a leaf PE device and the local PE device is a leaf PE device, the local PE device forbids a pseudo-wire connection between the local PE device and the peer PE device. The technical solution of the present invention implements effective isolation between leaf nodes supporting an E-Tree service and therefore implements the E-Tree service in a VPLS network.
Abstract:
A method for generating forwarding information includes generating, by a controller, first forwarding information, wherein the first forwarding information comprises an identifier of a service chain comprising a first service processing entity (SPE) attached to a first service forwarding entity (SFE); generating, by the controller, second forwarding information, wherein the second forwarding information comprises the identifier of the service chain comprising a second SPE attached to a second SFE; sending, by the controller, the first forwarding information to the first SFE; and sending, by the controller, the second forwarding information to the second SFE. Hence, the controller generates forwarding information for the SFE such that a service chaining technology can be applied to a service environment in which a large quantity of services and a large quantity of service processing function units exist.
Abstract:
This application relates to the field of communications technologies, and discloses a service forwarding method and a network device that performs such method. The method includes: forwarding, by a first network device, a data packet of a first service to a second network device in a period (T1); and if the data volume of the forwarded first service reaches a threshold, forwarding, by the first network device, a data packet of a second service to the second network device. The first service is a low-latency service, and the second service is a non-low-latency service. In addition, the period (T1) is determined based on a delay allowed by a device for forwarding the data packet of the first service, and the threshold is a value determined based on a maximum transmission rate of the first service.
Abstract:
A method includes: a first network device obtains a synchronization mode indication and synchronization information, where the synchronization mode indication indicates a target network device to perform synchronization based on the synchronization information. The first network device sends the synchronization mode indication and the synchronization information through a network that supports FlexE. A second network device receives the synchronization mode indication and the synchronization information through a network that supports FlexE. The second network device performs synchronization based on the synchronization mode indication and the synchronization information.

This application provides a method for obtaining a FIB of a device on a network. The network includes a verification system and a plurality of devices, and a first device is one of the plurality of devices. The first device receives a request message sent by the verification system, where the request message carries a command for obtaining a FIB of the first device that is generated at a specified time. The first device obtains the FIB or a FIB snapshot of the first device that is generated at the specified time. The first device adds the obtained FIB or FIB snapshot to a response message, and sends the response message to the verification system.
