摘要:
The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for transmitting packet in a Virtual Network. In the method, an access switch receives a Layer 3 packet carrying a VNID (Virtual Network IDentifier) from a VM in a remote Data Center. The access switch determines a DN (Designated Node) corresponding to the VNID and generates a Layer 2 frame according to the Layer 3 packet, where the Layer 2 frame includes the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the DN. The access switch to the DN transmits the Layer 2 frame according to the MAC address of the DN such that the DN determines a Layer 3 destination address according to the Layer 2 frame. This avoids packet flooding in Data Center when VM was migrated.

Disclosed is a mechanism that provides the extensions of PCEP message and the objects to support PCECC with P2MP capability in downloading the labels for branch node of P2MP TE LSPs. In one implementation, the present invention provides an apparatus, a system, a node and a method that receives a PCLabelUpd message with all the extensions and the objects to support PCECC with P2MP capability, detects the object and identifies that the label download is for P2MP TE LSP and for this LSP, the apparatus/the system/the node acts as a branch node, and thereby the apparatus/the system/the node downloads all the labels specified in the object to data plane with respect to any existing branch node download mechanism for a P2MP TE LSP.

The present invention discloses communication methods, apparatuses and a system for sharing network resources in a communications network. It enables a path computation element (PCE) to notify path computation clients (PCCs) about the shared resources of independent label switch paths by allowing a PCE to send an association object with a new association type to PCC. A Path Computation Element (PCE) Communication Protocol extension that associates LSP's whose ingress, or egress, or both ingress and egress are different for resource sharing to avoid path computation failures or duplicate allocation of resources during common links for new LSP's created during an update of E2E LSP. The PCC employs Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP) for LSP signalling, PCC forwards path message information along with association object to the RSVP for LSP signalling. The RSVP uses the association object in its reservation message for LSP setup.

The present disclosure provides a mechanism to support the creation of an SR policy using PCEP extensions. In one implementation, a PCE is in communication with a PCC using PCEP mechanisms. The PCE sends a first PCEP initiate message, PCInitiate, to the PCC, where the first PCEP message carries the central controller instruction with CC-ID for creating an SR policy. The PCC receives the first PCEP initiate message from the PCE, creates the SR policy using the SR policy parameters where the SR policy is a container independent of any candidate path. Further, the PCC sends a first PCEP report message, PCRpt, to the PCE to report the acknowledgement of the CC-ID and the newly created SR policy.

A communications method enables a path computation element (PCE) to notify path computation clients (PCCs) about the shared resources of independent label switch paths by allowing a PCE to send an association object with a new association type to PCC. A PCE Communication Protocol extension that associates label-switched paths (LSPs) whose ingress, or egress, or both ingress and egress are different for resource sharing to avoid path computation failures or duplicate allocation of resources during common links for new LSPs created during an update of end-to-end (E2E) LSP. The PCC employs Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) for LSP signalling, PCC forwards path message information along with association object to the RSVP for LSP signalling. The RSVP uses the association object in its reservation message for LSP setup.

Disclosed is a method for label database synchronization in a packet switched communication network including establishing a communication path between a stateful path computation element (PCE) and a path computation client (PCC), modifying a label update message at the PCE to include a synchronization flag and transmitting the label update message to the PCC.

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method of communicating across different domains and network apparatus. In the method, sending a Path Computation Request message to a Path Computation Element; wherein the Path Computation Request message includes an Include Route Object, and the Include Route Object is configured to specify a domain sequence; wherein the Include Route Object includes at least two sub-objects, and the at least two sub-objects identified the different domains. Through the embodiments of the present disclosure, standard way of representation for domain sequence has been implemented by using sub-object for area.
