2. Video networking packet definition

2.1 Access network packet definition

The data packet of the access network mainly comprises the following parts: destination Address (DA), Source Address (SA), reserved bytes, payload (pdu), CRC.

As shown in the following table, the data packet of the access network mainly includes the following parts:

DA

SA

Reserved

Payload

CRC

wherein:

the Destination Address (DA) is composed of 8 bytes (byte), the first byte represents the type of the data packet (such as various protocol packets, multicast data packets, unicast data packets, etc.), there are 256 possibilities at most, the second byte to the sixth byte are metropolitan area network addresses, and the seventh byte and the eighth byte are access network addresses;

the Source Address (SA) is also composed of 8 bytes (byte), defined as the same as the Destination Address (DA);

the reserved byte consists of 2 bytes;

the payload part has different lengths according to different types of datagrams, and is 64 bytes if the datagram is various types of protocol packets, and is 32+1024 or 1056 bytes if the datagram is a unicast packet, of course, the length is not limited to the above 2 types;

the CRC consists of 4 bytes and is calculated in accordance with the standard ethernet CRC algorithm.

2.2 metropolitan area network packet definition

The topology of a metropolitan area network is a graph and there may be 2, or even more than 2, connections between two devices, i.e., there may be more than 2 connections between a node switch and a node server, a node switch and a node switch, and a node switch and a node server. However, the metro network address of the metro network device is unique, and in order to accurately describe the connection relationship between the metro network devices, parameters are introduced in the embodiment of the present invention: a label to uniquely describe a metropolitan area network device.

In this specification, the definition of the Label is similar to that of the Label of MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switch), and assuming that there are two connections between the device a and the device B, there are 2 labels for the packet from the device a to the device B, and 2 labels for the packet from the device B to the device a. The label is classified into an incoming label and an outgoing label, and assuming that the label (incoming label) of the packet entering the device a is 0x0000, the label (outgoing label) of the packet leaving the device a may become 0x 0001. The network access process of the metro network is a network access process under centralized control, that is, address allocation and label allocation of the metro network are both dominated by the metro server, and the node switch and the node server are both passively executed, which is different from label allocation of MPLS, and label allocation of MPLS is a result of mutual negotiation between the switch and the server.

As shown in the following table, the data packet of the metro network mainly includes the following parts:

DA

SA

Reserved

label (R)

Payload

CRC

Namely Destination Address (DA), Source Address (SA), Reserved byte (Reserved), tag, payload (pdu), CRC. The format of the tag may be defined by reference to the following: the tag is 32 bits with the upper 16 bits reserved and only the lower 16 bits used, and its position is between the reserved bytes and payload of the packet.

Referring to fig. 5, a flowchart illustrating steps of a method for status monitoring according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided, where the method may be applied to a video network, such as fig. 6, where the video network may include a probe management server and a video network probe client deployed in a video network service server.

The client of the video network probe is deployed and operated on a service server in the video network, and reports an application program of server state information through a video network protocol, wherein the state information comprises process information, hardware information and the like; the probe management server is a server program used for receiving and managing the state of the video network probe.

Specifically, the method can comprise the following steps:

step 501, the probe management server binds a first virtual video network terminal to access the network in the video network, and transparently transmits a packet to the heartbeat of the video network probe client according to a preset heartbeat cycle;

in practical application, the probe management server can be deployed on a video network server, a first virtual video network terminal can be deployed on the video network server, and the probe management server is bound with the first virtual video network terminal so as to access the network in the video network.

After the network is accessed, the probe management server side can transparently transmit a packet to the heartbeat of the video network probe client side according to a preset heartbeat period, for example, a heartbeat period is every 10 s.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the video network may further include a video network core server connected to the video network service server, which may be a hardware device for recording and managing video network services and forwarding a video network protocol, as shown in fig. 7, if the probe management server communicates with the video network probe client through the video network core server, the step of transmitting the heartbeat packet to the video network probe client through the video network core server may include the following sub-steps:

the probe management server side sends a first heartbeat transparent transmission packet aiming at the video networking probe client side to the video networking core server; and after receiving the first heartbeat transparent transmission packet, the video networking core server converts the first heartbeat transparent transmission packet into a second heartbeat transparent transmission packet and sends the second heartbeat transparent transmission packet to the video networking probe client.

Specifically, the probe management server side can send a first heartbeat transparent transmission packet for the video network probe client side to the video network core server, and after the first heartbeat transparent transmission packet is received, the video network core server converts the first heartbeat transparent transmission packet into a second heartbeat transparent transmission packet and sends the second heartbeat transparent transmission packet to the video network probe client side.

As an example, the first heartbeat transparent transmission packet may be an 8F85 transparent transmission packet, and the second heartbeat transparent transmission packet may be a 8785 transparent transmission packet, as shown in the following table:

description of the operation code:

0x55AA,/heartbeat package card exchange +

0X5504,/. set whether to stop reporting information · based on a status of the device

Description of the operation code:

0x55AA,/heartbeat package card exchange +

Step 502, the video network probe client binds a second virtual video network terminal to access the network in the video network, and after receiving the heartbeat transparent transmission packet, sends a heartbeat response transparent transmission packet to the probe management server;

in practical application, the video networking probe client can be deployed on a video networking service server, a second virtual video networking terminal can be deployed on the video networking service server, and the video networking probe client is bound with the second virtual video networking terminal so as to access the network in the video networking. After receiving the heartbeat transparent transmission packet, the video network probe client can send a heartbeat response transparent transmission packet to the probe management server.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the step of sending the heartbeat response transparent transmission packet to the probe management server may include the following sub-steps:

the video networking probe client sends a first heartbeat response transparent transmission packet aiming at the probe management server to the video networking core server; and after receiving the first heartbeat response transparent transmission packet, the video networking core server converts the first heartbeat response transparent transmission packet into a second heartbeat response transparent transmission packet and sends the second heartbeat response transparent transmission packet to the probe management server side.

As an example, the first heartbeat response pass-through packet may be an 8F85 pass-through packet, and the second heartbeat response pass-through packet may be a 8785 pass-through packet.

Specifically, the video network probe client may send a first heartbeat response transparent transmission packet for the probe management server to the video network core server, and after receiving the first heartbeat response transparent transmission packet, the video network core server may convert the first heartbeat response transparent transmission packet into a second heartbeat response transparent transmission packet and send the second heartbeat response transparent transmission packet to the probe management server.

Step 503, after receiving the heartbeat response transparent transmission packet, the probe management server marks the video networking probe client as an online state, and if the heartbeat response transparent transmission packet is not received within a preset timeout period, marks the video networking probe client as an offline state.

As an example, the timeout period may be at least three heartbeat periods.

After receiving the heartbeat response transparent transmission packet, the probe management server side can mark the video network probe client side as an online state, if the heartbeat response transparent transmission packet is not received in a preset timeout period, and if the heartbeat response transparent transmission packet is not received in three heartbeat periods, the video network probe client side can be marked as an offline state, so that a network fault occurs in a service server where the video network probe client side is located.

In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 6, the probe management server may be connected to an alarm center located in the internet, and the method may further include the following steps:

after the probe management server marks the video networking probe client side as an offline state, generating offline alarm information and pushing the offline alarm information to the alarm center; and after the probe management server marks the video networking probe client side as an online state again, generating offline recovery information and pushing the offline recovery information to the alarm center.

After the video network probe client is marked as the offline state, the probe management server can generate offline warning information and push the offline warning information to the warning center, and after the video network probe client is marked as the online state again, the probe management server generates offline recovery information and pushes the offline recovery information to the warning center.
