Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for achieving energy saving of a data switching device. The apparatus acquires a working model, where the working model includes correspondence between a working mode and time within a working cycle of the data switching device, the working mode can identify a bandwidth capacity in the working mode, and controls a data processing module in the data switching device to work according to the working model, so that the data processing module works under a bandwidth capacity identified by a corresponding working mode at the time. In the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the power consumption of the data processing module in the data switching device can be reduced in the idle time period, thereby effectively achieving energy saving.
