Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for processing information, a forwarding plane device and a control plane device. The method includes: receiving a data packet, and extracting the data packet's characteristic information; searching for context information corresponding to the data packet's characteristic information; buffering or discarding the data packet if the context information is not found; and sending an event reporting message to a gateway control plane device, wherein the event reporting message carries the data packet's characteristic information, so that the gateway control plane device acquires the context information corresponding to the data packet's characteristic information. forwarding of the data packet to the greatest extent.
Abstract:
A user packet processing method is disclosed in which a forwarding plane device receives a flow entry installation message from a control plane device, writes the flow entries into the flow tables corresponding to the flow table identifiers, and performs a matching and processing procedure on the received user packet after the flow entries are written into the flow tables corresponding to the flow table identifiers; wherein the quantity of the flow entry installation messages is one, and the flow entry installation message carries all flow entries that may be needed to process a user packet, and a flow table identifier of a flow table in which each flow entry of all the flow entries is located. By using the foregoing manner, a case is effectively avoid that a forwarding plane device wrongly processes a user packet because of a network delay.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for forwarding a packet, where a first network virtualization edge (NVE) receives a first packet sent by a first tenant end system (TES), where a destination Internet Protocol (IP) address of the first packet is an IP address of a second TES, a destination media access control (MAC) address of the first packet is a gateway MAC address corresponding to the first NVE. The first NVE acquires an access virtual network identifier (VN ID) and a layer 3 virtual private network (VPN) instance identifier of the first TES, and searches a routing and forwarding table, to obtain an entry corresponding to the IP address of the second TES. Then the first NVE encapsulates the first packet into a network virtualization overlays (NVO3) packet according to the entry, and forwards the NVO3 packet to a second NVE to forward to the second TES.
Abstract:
