    Abstract: A communication method includes a first network device that receives a service packet from a first endpoint device, where a destination media access control (MAC) address of the service packet is a specific local MAC address of a second endpoint device, the specific local MAC address includes an indication prefix and location information, the indication prefix indicates that the specific local MAC address includes the location information, and the location information indicates an access location of an endpoint device in a network. The first network device determines an egress port from a preset routing table based on the location information in the specific local MAC address of the second endpoint device, and sends the service packet through the egress port, where the routing table includes the location information and the egress port corresponding to the location information.

    Abstract: This application relates to the field of communication technologies, and discloses a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: A terminal device receives indication information from a first access network device. The indication information is used to indicate to fall back a capability of the terminal device to a first protocol version. The terminal device communicates, based on the indication information, with the first access network device by using first capability information. A protocol version corresponding to the first capability information is lower than or equal to the first protocol version. In this method, because a network device can explicitly indicate to fall back the capability of the terminal device to the first protocol version, the terminal device can specially reduce the capability, so as to quickly resolve a communication problem caused by incompatibility between the terminal device and the access network device.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a data transmission method, a communications device, and a storage medium, to reduce pressure caused by a quantity of cross connections between intermediate nodes to the intermediate nodes in a network. In an embodiment of this application, a first communications device obtains Q first code block streams, and obtains a to-be-sent second code block stream based on the Q first code block streams. Q downlink ports are in a one-to-one correspondence with the Q first code block streams, the Q downlink ports correspond to S code block groups, one code block in the Q first code block streams corresponds to one code block group, and the second code block stream obtained by the first communications device includes L code block sets; and for each of the L code block sets, the code block set includes K code blocks corresponding to each of the S code block groups. In the solutions provided in this embodiment of this application, code block streams are multiplexed at a code block granularity, so that a quantity of cross connections between intermediate nodes in a network can be reduced, thereby reducing pressure on network management and operation and maintenance.

    Abstract: This application provides a flow rate control method and apparatus. The flow rate control method in this application includes: receiving N explicit congestion notification packets CNPs from a first device, where the N CNPs correspond to a first data flow, and N is a natural number; and sending M CNPs to a second device based on the N CNPs, where the M CNPs correspond to the first data flow, and M is an integer greater than N. This application resolves a problem that rate increase processing is still performed on a data flow when the data flow is congested.
