In the interworking transmission technology between SRv6 network and VXLAN network, since VXLAN messages need to be transmitted in VXLAN network, SRv6 messages need to be transmitted in SRv6 network. Therefore, how to implement the message conversion between the SRv6 message and the VXLAN message is an urgent problem to be solved.

In a related art, fig. 1 shows a packet processing scheme in the related art.

As shown in fig. 1, the controller 11 supports issuing commands such as: relevant configuration parameters of SRv6 messages, such as an optimal SRv6 path (Segment Routing IPv6 Best Effort, SRv6 BE), SRv6 Traffic Engineering Policy (Segment Routing IPv6 Traffic Engineering Policy, SRv6TE Policy), Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN), and the like, that is, configuration parameter 1 in fig. 1.

The controller 11 also supports the issue of relevant configuration information of the VXLAN packet, such as VXLAN tunnel parameters, VXLAN Network Identifier (VNI), Broadcast Domain (BD) information, etc., i.e., configuration parameter 2 in fig. 1. Optionally, the configuration parameter 2 may further include Virtual Private Network (VPN) information of the VXLAN Network when the VXLAN Network configures a VXLAN three-layer gateway.

However, since the encapsulation and decapsulation technique of the VXLAN message and the encapsulation and decapsulation technique of the SRv6 message cannot be spliced in the same device, SRv6 does not have a corresponding termination mode to enter the VXLAN network. The controller 11 can only issue the configuration parameter 1 to the first router 12 and issue the configuration parameter 2 to the second router 13.

With reference to fig. 1, after the configuration parameter is successfully issued, after the SRv6 message M1 enters the first router 12, the first router 12 needs to strip the header H1 of the SRv6 message M1 first, so as to obtain the transmission DATA. The first router 12 then forwards the transmission DATA to the second router 13 for encapsulation as a VXLAN message M2.

Similarly, after the VXLAN message M2 enters the second router 13, the second router 13 needs to obtain the transmission DATA after stripping off the VXLAN header H2. Then, the transmission DATA is forwarded to the first router 12 encapsulating SRv6 the message M1.

In this kind of technical solution, there is at least one of the following problems:

problem one, between the first router 12 and the second router 13, it is often necessary to establish a routing table, and forward the routing table from the physical sending port of one router to the physical receiving port of the other router by table lookup and forwarding. The forwarding process is complicated, thereby affecting the message conversion efficiency.

Problem two, it also needs to manually ensure the intercommunication of the two or three layers of the first router 12 and the second router 13. This configuration is cumbersome and further affects the message conversion efficiency.

And thirdly, decapsulation of the message headers needs to be performed on the two routers respectively, and routing tables need to be configured, so that the link bandwidth is wasted, the resource consumption is increased, the equipment configuration is complex, and the maintenance difficulty is high.

In order to solve at least one of the above problems, embodiments of the present application provide a message processing scheme, which may be applied to scenarios that require intercommunication between SRv6 networks and a VXLAN network, such as a metropolitan area network access cloud network scenario, a cloud network convergence scenario, and a private line service scenario. Specifically, when a message needs to be sent from the SRv6 network to the VXLAN network, the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel bound to the SRv6 network can be found by using the preset tunnel mapping relationship, and then the VXLAN message capable of entering the target VXLAN tunnel for transmission is obtained by encapsulation. Or when the message needs to be sent from the VXLAN network to the SRv6 network, the preset tunnel mapping relationship can be used to quickly find the configuration information of the target SRv6 network matched with the VXLAN tunnel, and then the SRv6 message which can enter the target SRv6 network for transmission is obtained through encapsulation, so that the message conversion efficiency between the SRv6 message and the VXLAN message is improved.

Next, a message processing method, a message processing apparatus, a message processing device, and a message processing medium according to embodiments of the present application will be described.

Before the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are introduced, the technical data related to the embodiments of the present application are defined and explained.

(1) SRv6 network, a network that uses SRv6 messages for data transmission. In this network, SRv6 messages may BE routed in SRv6 networks using modes such as SRv6BE mode, SRv6TE Policy mode, etc.

(2) SRv6 message, or referred to as a route extension Header (SRH) message, fig. 2 shows a format schematic diagram of a SRv6 message provided in this embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the SRv6 message may include SRv6 message header and transport data 23. The SRv6 header may include an IPv6 header 21 and an SRH header 22.

Wherein the transmission data 23 may be the original data that needs to be transmitted by SRv6 message.

(3) VXLAN networks, i.e., networks that use VXLAN messages for data transmission.

(4) The VXLAN tunnel is a virtual channel established between a source network device and a destination network device of the VXLAN network and is used for transmitting VXLAN messages.

(5) Fig. 3 shows a format diagram of a VXLAN packet according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 3, the VXLAN message may include both the header and the transmission data 35 portions of the VXLAN message. The header of the VXLAN message may include a Media Access Control (MAC) header 31 (i.e., an ethernet header), an outer IP header 32, a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) header 33, and a VXLAN header 34.

After the above technical terms are introduced, since the execution main body of the embodiment of the present application is a message processing apparatus, in order to facilitate overall understanding of the message processing scheme provided by the embodiment of the present application, the message processing scheme of the embodiment of the present application is first described in combination with the message processing apparatus as a whole.

Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a processing logic of a message processing scheme according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 4, after obtaining SRv6 the message M1, the message forwarding device 40 may decapsulate the message M, strip the header H1 of the message M, and obtain the transmission DATA, and then determine the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel by using a preset tunnel mapping relationship. And then, encapsulating the transmission DATA DATA by using the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel to obtain a VXLAN message M2.

Similarly, after obtaining the VXLAN message M2, the message forwarding device 40 may decapsulate the VXLAN message M2, strip the header H2 of the VXLAN message, and obtain the transmission DATA, and then determine the binding segment identifier BSID of the SRv6 message by using a preset tunnel mapping relationship. Then, the transmission DATA is encapsulated by the BSID, and SRv6 message M1 is obtained.

Through the message forwarding device 40, the conversion between the SRv6 message and the VXLAN message can be completed in the same device, so that the deployment of related network element devices is simplified, physical network devices are saved, and the network is more flat. And the configuration flow of the equipment is simplified, the operation and maintenance cost of the equipment is reduced, the packaging process of the message is simplified, and the utilization rate of the link bandwidth is improved.

Optionally, the message forwarding device 40 may further receive an S-V policy issued by the controller 50 through an Application Programming Interface (API), and then generate an S-V table according to the S-V policy. The S-V table records SRv6 a binding relationship between the network and the VXLAN tunnel, for example, the S-V table may include a tunnel mapping relationship table (S-V tunnel table) recording a tunnel mapping relationship, or may further include a service binding relationship table (S-V service table) recording a service binding relationship.

Illustratively, the S-V policies may include S-V tunneling policies, such as may be referred to as S-V policies. Optionally, the S-V tunnel policy includes multiple sets of parameters, where each set of parameters includes a set of corresponding node segment identifiers and configuration information of the VXLAN tunnel. Wherein each group of parameters further comprises an S-V policy identification (S-V policy id).

As yet another example, S-V policies may also include S-V business policies, such as may be referred to as S-Vservice. Optionally, the S-V traffic policy may include a plurality of sets of corresponding first forwarding traffic information and second forwarding traffic information.

For example, the message processing method according to the embodiment of the present application may be implemented by a message forwarding engine deployed in the message forwarding device 40. Accordingly, the message forwarding device 40 may issue the S-V table to the message forwarding engine after generating the table.

It should be noted that, through the dedicated API interface, S-V policy transmission between the message forwarding device 40 and the controller 50 may be facilitated, and advantages such as convenience in deployment may also be provided.

After preliminarily understanding the processing logic of the embodiment of the present application, a description will be given below of a message processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application with reference to the drawings and the embodiment.

The embodiment of the application provides a message processing method, which can be executed by any message processing device with message processing capability or a message forwarding engine inside the message processing device. The message processing apparatus may be, for example, a router or the like equipped with a message forwarding engine, and is not particularly limited in this regard.

Fig. 5 shows a flowchart of a message processing method in the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 5, the message processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps S510 to S540.

S510, obtaining and SRv6 the SRv6 message output by the network.

For specific contents of SRv6 network and SRv6 messages, reference may be made to the above description of the embodiments of the present application, which is not described herein again.

S520, determining the transmission data in the SRv6 message and the END-SID (destination node segment identifier) of the SRv6 message.

For the transmission data, it may be SRv6 message data that needs to be transmitted.

In some embodiments, the manner of obtaining the transmission data may include: and (8) de-encapsulating the SRv6 message to obtain the transmission data. For example, the header may be stripped SRv6 to obtain the transmission data.

For the END-SID, which represents a destination node in the network, the device is instructed to process SRH, update the IPv6 destination address field, and then look up the IPv6 routing table for message forwarding. Illustratively, for SRv6 messages transmitted out of SRv6 networks, their END-SID may be the segment ID of the egress node of SRv6 networks.

In some embodiments, the END-SID of the SRv6 message may be obtained from the SRH extension header of the SRv6 message.

S530, determining the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel corresponding to the END-SID of the SRv6 message by using the preset tunnel mapping relation.

For a target VXLAN tunnel, it may be the target transport tunnel of the SRv6 message.

For the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel, it may be information that needs to be configured in the process of encapsulating the VXLAN message for transmission in the target VXLAN tunnel. Illustratively, the configuration information for the target VXLAN tunnel may include a source IP address, a destination IP address, and a VNI. It should be noted that the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel may include other information that needs to be configured, which is not described herein again.

For the preset tunnel mapping relationship, it may include SRv6 a mapping relationship between node segment identification of the network and configuration information of the VXLAN tunnel.

In some embodiments, the presetting of the tunnel mapping relationship may include: a first tunnel mapping relationship between the END-SID and the configuration information of the VXLAN tunnel, and a second tunnel mapping relationship between the BID and the configuration information of the VXLAN tunnel.

Accordingly, when the transmission from the SRv6 network to the VXLAN network is needed, the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel can be inquired from the first tunnel mapping relation according to the END-SID.

In one embodiment, the preset tunnel mapping relationship may be implemented as a tunnel mapping relationship table (S-V tunnel table).

In an example, fig. 6 illustrates a schematic diagram of an exemplary tunnel mapping relationship table provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 6, a tunnel mapping table (S-V tunnel table) may include a first tunnel mapping relationship between S-V policy id, END-SID and VXLAN tunnel configuration information.

The configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel may include a source IP address (VXLAN _ src _ IP), a destination IP address (VXLAN _ det _ IP), and a VXLAN network identifier (vni).

Illustratively, with continued reference to FIG. 6, if after the SRv6 message is obtained, its END-SID may be extracted therefrom, such as "2022: 2: 27: : 243 ", then, it can be found through the tunnel mapping relation table that the source IP address is" 1.1.1.2 ", the destination IP address is" 1.1.1.3 ", and the VNI is" 1 ", and then, the VXLAN packet can be configured and generated by using the source IP address" 1.1.1.2 ", the destination IP address" 1.1.1.3 ", and the VNI" 1 ".

In one example, with continued reference to fig. 6, the second tunnel mapping may be a second tunnel mapping between a binding segment identification (bsid) and a source IP address, a destination IP address, a VNI.

Optionally, the tunnel mapping relationship table may further include a SRv6 routing mode corresponding to the SRv6 packet. For example, with continued reference to FIG. 6, the parameter value for the SRv6 routing mode "bsid _ mode" may BE "BE," which corresponds to SRv6 BE. Still alternatively, the parameter value may also be "TE", corresponding to SRv6TE Policy. It should BE noted that identifiers other than "BE" and "TE" may BE used to indicate different routing modes, and this is not particularly limited.

Optionally, the tunnel mapping relationship table may further include an S-V policy identification (S-V policy id). Each tunnel mapping relation table corresponds to 1S-V policy id, which is issued by the controller and has globally unique identification in the message forwarding equipment. Illustratively, an error is reported when the controller repeatedly issues the same S-V policy id, indicating that the S-V policy id conflicts. Therefore, the orderly and reasonable configuration of the mapping relation of the tunnel can be ensured.

And S540, packaging the transmission data by using the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel to obtain a VXLAN message for inputting the target VXLAN tunnel.

In S540, the VXLAN packet may be encapsulated according to the encapsulation format and the encapsulation flow of the VXLAN packet, and the encapsulation format and the encapsulation flow are not specifically limited.

According to the message processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, after the obtained SRv6 message is obtained, the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel corresponding to the END-SID in the SRv6 message can be determined based on the preset tunnel mapping relationship, and the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel is used for encapsulating the transmission data to obtain the VXLAN message. Because the END-SID identifies the destination node of the SRv6 message in the SRv6 network, and the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel corresponds to the target VXLAN tunnel, correspondingly, the END-SID in the SRv6 message can quickly determine the target VXLAN tunnel mapped with the destination node in the SRv6 network in the preset tunnel mapping relationship recorded in the mapping relationship between the node in the SRv6 network and the VXLAN tunnel, and further, the configuration information of the target VXLAN tunnel can be quickly encapsulated into a VXLAN message which can enter the target VXLAN tunnel for transmission, thereby improving the message conversion efficiency between the SRv6 message and the VXLAN message.

In some embodiments, before S540, the message processing method may further include step a1 and step a 2.

Step a1, acquiring the first forwarding service information and the second forwarding service information.

The first forwarding service information is the bearer information of the forwarding service of the SRv6 message from the SRv6 network. Illustratively, in the case where the network SRv6 is internetworking based on EVPN, the first forwarding traffic information may include a configuration value of EVPN. EVPN is a VPN technology for two-layer network interconnection.

Illustratively, the configuration values of EVPN may include a Route identifier (RD) of VPN, an import Route Target (RT) of VPN, and an export RT of VPN. For example, RD of VPN may be denoted as "VPN _ RD", import RT of VPN may be denoted as "VPN _ RT _ in", and export RT of VPN may be denoted as "VPN _ RT _ ex".

And the second forwarding service information is the bearing information of the forwarding service of the VXLAN message by the target VXLAN tunnel. Illustratively, the second forwarding traffic information may be related information of the L2 network or related information of the L3 network.

In a specific example, the second forwarding service information may include a BD Domain schema (L2 network or L3 network), a VLAN identifier, a Domain Controller (DC) gateway address, an RD of a DC gateway, an import RT of a BD Domain, and an export RT of a DC gateway. For example, the BD domain mode may be denoted as "BD _ mode" and the VLAN id may be denoted as "VLAN _ id". The DC gateway address may be denoted "BDIF _ ip". RD of the DC gateway may be denoted as "BD _ VPN _ RD", import RT of the DC gateway may be denoted as "BD _ VPN _ RT _ in", and export RT of the BD domain may be denoted as "BD _ VPN _ RT _ ex".

For step a1, after determining SRv6 network and target VXLAN tunnel, the first forwarding service information of SRv6 network and the second forwarding service information corresponding to the target VXLAN tunnel can be found.

Step a2, determining whether the first forwarding service information and the second forwarding service information satisfy a preset service binding relationship. The preset service binding relationship comprises a binding relationship between the first forwarding service information and the second forwarding service information.

In one embodiment, the preset service binding relationship may be implemented as a service binding relationship table (S-V service table).

Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating an exemplary service binding relationship table provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 7, a service binding relationship table (S-V service table) records a correspondence relationship between service bearers of SRv6 and service bearers of VXLAN tunnels bound to each other.

As shown in fig. 7, VPN _ RD, VPN _ RT _ in, and VPN _ RT _ ex are RD value and RT value of EVPN carried by SRv 6.

BD _ mode represents the bearer service mode of the VXLAN tunnel. Illustratively, a VXLAN tunnel can carry layer 2 forwarding traffic (i.e., an L2 network or referred to as an L2 gateway) can be denoted by "L2", and a VXLAN tunnel can carry layer 3 forwarding traffic (i.e., an L3 network or referred to as an L3 gateway) can be denoted by "L3".

vlan _ id is the vlan value that the VXLAN user side matches.

The values of BDIF _ ip, BD _ VPN _ RD, BD _ VPN _ RT _ in, and BD _ VPN _ RT _ ex are all null when the value of BD _ mode is L2. And, in the case where the BD _ mode has a value of L3, the BDIF _ ip takes a value of the DC gateway address. If the DC gateway carries the VPN, BD _ VPN _ RD is the RD value of the VPN of the DC gateway, BD _ VPN _ RT _ in is the import RT of the VPN of the DC gateway, and BD _ VPN _ RT _ ex is the export RT of the VPN of the DC gateway. And if the DC gateway does not carry the VPN, the values of the BD _ VPN _ RD, the BD _ VPN _ RT _ in and the BD _ VPN _ RT _ ex are null.
