    摘要: The present application discloses a service data packet encapsulation method and apparatus. The method includes at least: obtaining, by a source communications device, a mobility support parameter of a current service, where the mobility support parameter is used to indicate whether a corresponding service requires mobility support, and the source communications device includes at least an ID identifier layer and a locator layer; determining, by the source communications device based on the mobility support parameter of the current service, whether the current service requires mobility support; and obtaining, by the source communications device, a source locator of the source communications device and a destination locator of a destination communications device when determining that the current service does not require mobility support, and performing, by using the source locator and the destination locator, locator layer encapsulation on a data packet that needs to be sent by the current service.

    摘要: Embodiments disclose a method for acquiring, by a switch deployed in a software defined network (SDN), an exact flow entry, where the SDN network includes an SDN controller and multiple SDN switches, the SDN controller being configured to communicate with each SDN switch in an inband communication manner. The method includes establishing, by a first SDN switch, a reliable connection to the SDN controller, and sending a first control message based on a packet corresponding to a protocol for the reliable connection. Path information of the first SDN switch is added to the control message. Each SDN switch that receives the first control message adds path information of each SDN switch to the first control message, so that the SDN controller is provided with an entire path, so as to deliver a flow table to the first SDN switch.
