Description

A kind of route diagnosis method of support policy routing
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of route diagnosis, relate in particular to a kind of route diagnosis method that is supported in the strategy path selecting network.
Background technology
Network diagnostic tools such as ping/trace route are widely used in the accessibility of diagnostic purpose network, the routing situation of IP bag and the position of routing failure in IP (Internet Protocol, Internet protocol) network.But diagnostic tools such as existing ping/trace route all can only be applicable in the pure network based on the destination address routing, when in the IP bag delivery process through certain during based on the equipment of strategy path selecting, then the routing of diagnosing protocol message may be different with the Business Stream routing of being diagnosed, and cause not exclusively correct diagnostic result.
Router and main frame use ICMP agreement (Internet Control Messages Protocol, Internet Control Message Protocol) communicating control information, are existing ICMP protocol massages forms as Fig. 1.Network manager can utilize these control information diagnosis routing issues.Two the most frequently used routing issue diagnostic tools, one is the ping instrument, Source Site (router or main frame) sends some ICMP echo (ICMP request) message to purpose website (router or main frame), as Fig. 2 is existing ICMPecho/reply message format, respond the message with ICMPreply (ICMP response) if the point of destination point is received these ICMP echo messages, whether the Source Site then can diagnose out the purpose website can reach and propagation delay time; Another is a trace route instrument, the Source Site sends ttl value (Timeto Live to the purpose website, the life period value, can calculate what routers packet has passed through by ttl value) since 1 ICMP that increases progressively or UDP (User Datagram Protocol, User Datagram Protoco (UDP)) message, intermediate router is successively because the overtime loopback ICMP of TTL timeout packet, up to arriving the purpose website, loopback ICMP reply or the unreachable message of ICMP port, write down the source address of the corresponding message of ICMP successively, trace route can show the path that the IP bag is delivered.
As Fig. 3, main frame 320 (HOST A) and main frame 330 (HOST B) are two PCs, and router three 01,302,303,304,305 (ROUTER A-E) is for having 5 routers based on the strategy path selecting ability.Main frame 320 (HOST A) can detect the route accessibility of HOSTA and HOST B by ping main frame 330 (HOST B).According to existing ICMP technology, suppose that HOST A to the message routing routing path of HOST B is: HOST A → ROUTER A → ROUTE B → ROUTER C → ROUTERE → HOST B, and suppose that five routers between HOST A and the HOST B all are the abilities that has based on tactful route, if HOST A is to TCP (the Transfer Control Protocol of HOST B, transmission control protocol) is connected ROUTER B by certain bar strategy, as certain bar ACL (Access ControlList, Access Control List (ACL)) strategy path selecting is to ROUTE D, the result of above-mentioned ping just can not reflect the accessibility of HOST A to the TCP message of HOST B truly, promptly may there be this phenomenon, HOST A can lead to HOST B by ping, but the TCP message of HOST A can't arrive HOST B.

Embodiment
The route diagnosis method key step of support policy routing of the present invention is as follows:
The first step: in existing diagnosing protocol message, add stream description information, make this diagnosing protocol message not according to the information in the IP head (as destination address) routing, and according to the stream description information routing in the diagnosing protocol message.The diagnosing protocol message can carry the stream description information of certain Business Stream, if the diagnosing protocol message has carried stream description information, then must carry IP Alert option (by comprising router alert option in front at IP, this message should more carefully be checked and handle to the notice router), the notice intermediate router is done further inspection and processing to the diagnosing protocol message.
Second step: for the diagnosing protocol message that has carried stream description information, router should be by the routing of stream description information.For example intermediate router is received ICMP echo diagnosing protocol message, if TTL is overtime, and loopback ICMP time exceeded message; If comprise stream description information in the ICMP echo agreement, then parse stream description, the routing policy that coupling is local is by the strategy path selecting that matches.
Wherein stream description information is encoded with TLV (Type-Length-Value) form.For with former equipment and technical compatibility, these stream description information all are optional.Processing for IP Alert option also is optional equally.But, carry out routing according to stream description information simultaneously if the route diagnosis method of support policy routing just must be discerned and process IP Alert option.
Can carry all or part of stream description information in the ICMP echo message, intermediate router is according to the stream description information routing that obtains.ICMP echo message also can not carried stream description information, handles according to IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force, the Internet engineering duty group) protocol specification of ICMP.The ICMP protocol massages of parameter error and other types also can carry stream description information and come routing.
In addition, the private network Business Stream is through NAT (Network Address Trans lation, when network address translation protocol) equipment is gone to public network, the source address of Business Stream and transport layer source port can be done conversion, therefore when NAT device is received from ICMP echo message that private network comes, if comprise Business Stream source address (IPv4) TLV or Business Stream source port TLV in the stream description information, NAT device also will be done corresponding conversion, and the content of Business Stream source address (IPv4) TLV and the value of Business Stream source port TLV are revised as source address and the source port of Business Stream after the NAT device address transition.
In addition, supporting TOS (Type of Service, the edge of carrier network COS), often be provided with professional sorting device, classification according to Business Stream, revise, fill the IPTOS field of user traffic flow, equipment in the core network may carry out routing according to amended IP TOS value, therefore, when on professional sorting device, receiving ICMP echo message, require TLV if comprise Business Stream TOS in the stream description information, do corresponding conversion, Business Stream TOS require the value of TLV be revised as Business Stream through this equipment with the TOS value of carrying; Do not require TLV if comprise Business Stream TOS in the stream description information, add suitable Business Stream TOS and require TLV.
In addition, this method is only required in the router device support that influences routing policy (as NAT device etc.) and support policy routing, and main frame/terminal does not need the upgrading expansion.Do not support the equipment of this method, handle according to the standard agreement message.
In addition, attack for avoiding potential DOS (Denial of Service, denial of service), this method realizes that restriction enters the flow of the ICMP protocol massages of key-course.
Network edge router can dispose ICMP ping/trace route password, if router device has disposed ICMP ping/trace route password, this protocol extension PDU (PublicData Network then to receiving, protocol Data Unit) checks, if do not carry " authentication TLV ", perhaps the value and the password of " authentication TLV " do not match, and are then abandoned.
In addition, the present invention also is applicable to MPLS (the Multi-Protocol LabelSwitch based on the label exchange, multiprotocol label switching) switching network is based on ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) switching network of VPI/VCI (virtual path sign/VPI) exchange or FR (frame relay) switching network that exchanges based on DLCI (data chainning connects sign in succession).
Fig. 6 has carried out concise and to the point description to concrete implementation step of the present invention.
Step 60l, the present invention be for ICMP defines some scaling options, and the ICMP PDU form that has these options as shown in Figure 4.Wherein, PDU Length is 2 eight hytes, has identified the length of TLVs part; Reserved is 2 eight hytes, must fill out 0 during transmission, ignores during reception; The ICMP extended coding form that TLV (Type-Length-Value) promptly is expanded; PAD fills field, and the icmp packet after the expansion can carry the pad information of several eight hytes as required.
Step 602, after the icmp packet PDU form of definition band option, the present invention just can be by some stream description TLV of Option Field expanded definition of ICMP, and Fig. 5 has stipulated the form of TLV.TLV is elongated structure, and first eight hyte type has described the type of Business Stream, and next two eight hytes (length) have been described the length of this traffic flow parameters part (value).The last part of TLV (value) is the parameter value that this Business Stream is described, and its length is different variable according to type's, is stipulated by length.It is as follows that the Business Stream of the present invention's definition is described the type value:
Ox41: Business Stream protocol type;
Ox42: Business Stream ToS (Type of Service) requirement;
Ox43: Business Stream source address (IPv4);
Ox44: Business Stream source port;
Ox45: Business Stream destination address (IPv4);
Ox46: Business Stream destination interface;
Ox47: authentication;
Ox48: expansion sign.
Fig. 7 is an example with Business Stream TOS, and the TLV coded format has been described.Wherein the corresponding field definition of the value of value and the Business Stream that needs diagnosis is identical.
Step 603, the present invention must carry IP Alert option simultaneously in the IP option, thereby make this icmp packet remarkable carry out routing according to destination address and the protocol type of this ICMP own, but carry out routing according to the information of carrying among the TLV, and, in based on the network of strategy path selecting, the accessibility of diagnosing various flows can be set by the TLV of icmp packet.For the ICMP echo message that has carried stream description TLV, intermediate router should be by the routing of stream description information.
Step 604, intermediate router are received ICMP echo message, if TTL is overtime, still press the standard loopback ICMP time exceeded message of IETF;
Step 605 if comprise stream description TLV among the PDU of the ICMP echo message of receiving, then parses stream description, and the routing policy that coupling is local is by the strategy path selecting that matches.All stream description TLV are optional.Can carry all or part of stream description information in the ICMP echo message, intermediate router is according to the stream description information routing that obtains.ICMP echo message also can not carried stream description information, the specification handles of pressing IETF.Can define the stream description information of abundanter Business Stream, make agreement can adapt to application scenario widely.
Step 606, intermediate router carries out routing according to the routing policy result in the 5th step to icmp packet, transmits.
Intermediate router of the present invention receives that the processing of message is as follows: at first receive an ICMP data message that has IP Alert option, no matter be that what to transmit also is non-forwarding, transferring to the protocol process module of IP handles, the IP agreement is according to the content of the TLV field of this ICMP, search route or strategy comes routing, determine then this data message is where to be sent to.Rather than it is simple only according to the relevant field route of destination address and the IP head of IP.
In sum, this extended method can be in based on the network of strategy carry out accessibility at specific stream and detect and path trace, also can inherit the original network of not supporting based on tactful route simultaneously.
The above is preferred embodiment of the present invention only, is not to be used for limiting practical range of the present invention; Every according to equivalence variation and modification that the present invention did, all contained by claim of the present invention.
