Description

Method, equipment and medium for issuing and executing instructions to network node
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of wireless communications technologies, and in particular, to a method, an apparatus, and a medium for issuing and executing an instruction to a network node.
Background
IDC (internet data center ) reports show that in the past 8 years and the next 8 years, the growth of data will be unprecedented and by 2025 the total amount of data will exceed 160Zeta bytes.
In the past, data are mostly stationary or slowly moving, and with the development of technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence and the like, the data can be calculated, analyzed and transmitted more easily, the value of the data is infinitely amplified, and the data also has a new vitality. The explosive growth of data year by year, technologies such as HPC (high performance computing ), deep Learning and the like put more and more demanding demands on computation, data transmission delay and throughput, such as internet of vehicles (e.g. unmanned), AR (augmented reality ), video optimization acceleration, monitoring video analysis and the like. It is estimated that by 2020, an average of 1.5GB of data will be produced per person per day. As more and more devices connect to the internet and generate data, cloud computing may not be able to fully process the data-especially in certain usage scenarios where very rapid processing of data is required.
Edge computing (Edge computing) is a relative cloud computing, which refers to the act of collecting and analyzing data that occurs in local devices and networks that are close to the generation of data, rather than having to transmit the data to a cloud of computing resource centralization for processing. Edge computing is also known as distributed cloud computing, fog computing, or fourth generation data center.
Taking the internet of things as an example, in the internet of things scenario, each intelligent device can generate a large amount of data, and a large amount of network bandwidth is consumed when the large amount of data is transmitted from the local to the cloud. To speed up the time for service and computation of data processing, it is a necessary option to move the computation from the cloud to the edge node where the data is collected.
In edge computing, some distributed INC (online computing, in Network Computing) methods are proposed by some manufacturers or research institutions, and the existing online computing mainly includes the following two schemes:
1. special equipment and deployment modes (such as Mellanox) of specific manufacturers are adopted;
2. on-line computing (e.g., mapReduce) is performed for certain specific applications.
The disadvantage of the prior art is that flexible online computing services cannot be provided on demand.

Detailed Description
The inventors noted during the course of the invention that:
for solutions that use specific equipment and deployment modes of a specific manufacturer, or perform online computing for some specific applications, these solutions, while meeting some requirements, have at least one of the following drawbacks:
1. special equipment and a deployment mode of a specific manufacturer are adopted, compatibility of different manufacturers is poor, a networking mode is inflexible, equipment is expensive, and the equipment is easy to be locked by the manufacturer;
2. only for some specific applications, online calculation can be performed, and other applications cannot fully utilize the calculation power in the network;
3. the idle computing power of each network node in the network cannot be dynamically monitored;
4. computing tasks with corresponding complexity cannot be dynamically distributed according to idle computing power of each network node in the network;
5. the list of algorithms supported by each network node cannot be updated dynamically.
Based on this, the embodiment of the invention provides a distributed INC scheme, so as to provide a flexible distributed online computing service according to the need. The following describes specific embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings.
In the description process, the implementation of the SDN controller and the network node will be described separately, and an embodiment of the implementation of the SDN controller and the network node in cooperation with each other will be given to better understand the implementation of the solution given in the embodiment of the present invention. Such an illustration does not mean that the two must be implemented cooperatively or separately, and in fact, when the SDN controller is implemented separately from the network node side, the problems of the SDN controller side and the network node side are solved separately, and when the two are used in combination, a better technical effect is obtained.
Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of implementation of a method for issuing an instruction to a network node on an SDN controller side, and as shown in the drawing, may include:
step 101, determining an instruction to be executed on a network node by an SDN controller;
step 102, issuing an instruction to a network node, wherein the instruction is issued through a message in an SRV6 protocol format.
Fig. 2 is a flow chart of implementation of a method for executing an instruction issued by an SDN controller on a network node side, and as shown in the drawing, may include:
step 201, receiving an instruction issued by an SDN controller, wherein the instruction is issued through a message in an SRV6 protocol format.
In practice, the instructions may or may not be executed according to requirements of the network node's operation policy, etc.
For the non-execution case, when the network node does not support the message in the SRV6 protocol format, or the network node can still receive the instruction although the network node supports the message in the SRV6 protocol format but cannot read the instruction, the network node cannot execute the instruction; for the network node supporting the message in the SRV6 protocol format, when the message is not needed to be executed, the relevant switch is only needed to be closed, and no response is needed.
In practice, the instruction is issued via the SRH portion of the message in SRV6 protocol format.
In implementation, the instruction is issued through a SegmentList of the SRH portion of the SRV6 protocol formatted message.
In implementation, in the instruction issued by the segment list of the SRH part of the message in the SRV6 protocol format, 96 bits are adopted to carry the network node position, and 32 bits are adopted to carry the instruction.
In practice, the instructions include one or a combination of the following instructions:
calculating the idle computing power of the network node;
feeding back the idle computing power of the network node to the SDN controller;
determining an algorithm supported by the network node;
feeding back an algorithm supported by the network node to the SDN controller;
downloading a specified algorithm to the network node;
processing the issued calculation task at the network node;
and feeding back a settlement result obtained by the network node after processing the issued calculation task to the SDN controller.
First, an environment of implementation will be described.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a distributed on-line computing reference topology, and the configuration of on-line computing is not limited to the one illustrated in the figure, and other network structures may implement the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, in fact, as long as a network capable of transmitting and processing a message in SRV6 (segment routing based on an IPV6 forwarding plane, segment Routing over IPV 6) protocol format may be used.
As shown in fig. 3, the network includes an SDN (software defined network ) controller, a plurality of network nodes capable of providing online computing services, and a server or a virtual machine, where when performing online computing, the SDN controller issues a computing task to a corresponding network node, and notifies the server or the virtual machine that initiates a request to provide data to the network node for computing; after the calculation is completed, the network node returns the calculation result to the request server or the virtual machine.
The SRV6, SRH, segmentList is described below.
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a message format of the SRV6 standard, where SR (Segment Routing) is a source Routing technology, and source Routing is implemented by carrying labels of network nodes of forwarding paths in a message of a head network node, and SRV6 is an SR based on an IPV6 (internet protocol 6 th edition, internet Protocol Version 6) forwarding plane, and IPV6 implementation reachability. In implementation, the instruction may be issued via a message in SRV6 protocol format.
Next 43 in the message indicates Routing Extension Header (routing extension header), routing Extension Header has a RoutingType (routing format) suggestion value of 4 indicating SRH (SR extension header). In implementation, the instruction may be issued via an SRH portion of a message in SRV6 protocol format.
The SRH extension header contains the following:
SegmentList: ordered SRv list of 6 Sid;
SegmentsLeft (SL): SRv6 active Sid (System Identifier, system identification) is Slist [ SL ]. In the forwarding process, the SL is modified, and meanwhile, the DIP (destination IP, destination internet protocol) is replaced to be an active Sid to complete forwarding in a segmented mode;
tag: for grouping data packets, a group-based policy may be implemented;
SRHTLVs (NSHmetadata, HMACTLV, paddingTLV, etc.): global parameters that can be used together as SIDs for a SegmentList.
In implementation, the instruction is issued through a SegmentList of the SRH portion of the message in SRV6 protocol format.
In specific implementation, in the instruction issued by the SegmentList of the SRH part of the message in the SRV6 protocol format, 96 bits are adopted to carry the network node position, and 32 bits are adopted to carry the instruction.
Specifically, fig. 5 is a schematic instruction position and structure, and as shown in the drawing, 96 bits may be used to represent a Locator (positioning), 32 bits may be used to represent a Function, 0 bits may be used to represent an area (actual parameter), and 7 functions are defined to implement distributed online computing based on SRV 6.
In implementation, the Locator is a network node for the SDN controller to instruct to execute the instruction, and the network node also determines whether to execute the instruction itself through the Locator byte; as for the Function, it is easy to understand that when the network node executes a certain instruction according to the instruction of the SDN controller, the SDN controller will show that the network node has a certain Function, so in the embodiment, the network node is also expressed in terms of Function according to industry practice.
Specifically, the meaning corresponding to the Function in implementation is as follows:
the idle computing power of the network node is calculated, and the idle computing power corresponds to: an idle computing power acquisition function;
and feeding back the idle computing power of the network node to the SDN controller, wherein the idle computing power corresponds to: an idle computing force return function;
determining an algorithm supported by the network node, corresponding to: acquiring a function by an algorithm list supported by a network node;
and feeding back an algorithm supported by the network node to the SDN controller, wherein the algorithm corresponds to: an algorithm list return function supported by the network node;
downloading a specified algorithm to the network node, wherein the algorithm corresponds to the following steps: downloading a function by an algorithm;
the method comprises the steps of processing issued calculation tasks at the network node, and corresponding to: calculating a task issuing function;
and feeding back a settlement result obtained by the network node after processing the issued calculation task to the SDN controller, wherein the settlement result corresponds to: the result of the calculation returns to the function.
The specific 7 functions can be as shown in table 1 below:
TABLE 1
Namely, adding network node idle calculation power acquisition and return Function to SRV6 expansion; acquiring an algorithm list supported by a network node, and returning to Function; the algorithm downloads functions; the calculation task issues a Function and a calculation result returns to the Function; in a specific implementation, the implementation may be as follows:
the SDN controller periodically detects and records the idle computing power of each network node of the whole network through the network node idle computing power acquisition Function, and the detection period is adjustable;
if necessary, the SDN controller can also immediately acquire and record the idle computing power of the specific network node through the network node idle computing power acquisition Function according to the need;
when a certain application in a server or a virtual machine needs to perform a large amount of computation, pushing a computation task to the SDN controller to request the SDN controller to perform dispatching and distributing computation force;
searching a network node with idle computing power capable of completing the computing task by a detection result database before searching by the SDN controller, and acquiring whether an algorithm for completing the computing task is built in the network node or not by a Function through an algorithm list supported by the network node;
if no corresponding algorithm exists in the network node, informing the network node to a designated address through an algorithm downloading Function to download a corresponding algorithm executable file;
the SDN controller issues a calculation task to the network node through a calculation task issuing Function, and notifies a server or a virtual machine which initiates a request to provide data to the network node for calculation;
after the calculation is completed, the network node returns the calculation result to the request server or the virtual machine through the calculation result return Function.
In particular implementation, not only the above functions are implemented, but in practice, the instructions may be designed accordingly according to needs, for example, the following may be implemented:
the SDN controller designates a specific network node to report the idle computing power according to the requirement, and the network node can decide whether to report the idle computing power according to the deployment strategy at the moment;
the SDN controller directly issues a request for periodically reporting the idle computing power of the network node, or actively reports the idle computing power when the idle computing power exists;
for newly deployed network nodes, the newly deployed network nodes can be required to actively report calculation force;
for the network node without the corresponding algorithm, the network node can be required to download the corresponding algorithm to the designated address to perform temporary calculation, or the network node can be required to download the corresponding algorithm to the local so as to be called more timely next time, or the downloading flow is reduced.
The following description will take Table 1 as an example.
Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of SRV6 information of a network topology and network nodes of SRV6, and as shown in the figure, each network node implements the following conditions:
it is assumed that the ipv6 addresses of the network nodes are A, B, C, D, E, F, G and Z, respectively.
If the idle computing power of the C network node is required to be obtained, the SDN controller accesses the C network node by adopting an IPV6 address with SID of 1, and the C network node replies the controller by adopting an IPV6 address with SID of 2;
if an algorithm list supported by the E network node is required to be obtained, the SDN controller needs to access the E network node by adopting an IPV6 address with SID of E:3, and the E network node adopts an IPV6 address reply controller with SID of E:4;
if the controller finds that the idle computing power of the F network node can be used for a certain computing task, but the F network node does not support an algorithm for completing the task at present, the controller adopts an IPV6 address with SID of F:5 to inform the F network node to download an executable file of the algorithm for completing the task to a designated address;
if the controller needs the G network node to execute a certain calculation task, the G network node is informed to start the calculation task through the IPV6 address with SID of G:6;
and when the G network node performs the calculation task, returning a calculation result to a server or virtual machine providing calculation data through the IPV6 address with SID of G7.
