Can adopt the structure of multistage physical layer multiplex chip cascade based on the network equipment of physical layer multiplex.Be cascaded as example with 3 grades, its structure as shown in Figure 3.The downstream interface of a MAC layer forwarding chip is connected to a plurality of the 1st level physical layer multiplexing chip, the downstream interface of each the 1st level physical layer multiplexing chip is connected to a plurality of the 2nd level physical layer multiplexing chip, the downstream interface of each the 2nd level physical layer multiplexing chip is connected to a plurality of 3rd level physical layer multiplex chips, and the downstream interface of 3rd level physical layer multiplex chip is a plurality of physical ports.Be without loss of generality, if the present invention is applied to have the structure of n level physical layer multiplexing chip cascade, wherein n is the integer more than or equal to 1, multiplexing level is the k level physical layer multiplexing chip of the descending connection of MAC layer forwarding chip for the physical layer multiplex chip of k, and the downstream interface of n level physical layer multiplexing chip is a physical port.
According to seven layer protocol models of OSI (Open System Interconnection, open system interconnection), the flow control of physical layer is realized at link layer.Thereby in the present invention, MAC layer forwarding chip should be monitored the reception formation of its all physical ports that connect down, and generates the Flow Control frame for it when certain physical port need carry out flow control.In order to make the Flow Control frame send to the opposite end of carrying out the data service frame traffic with it from this physical port, to reach the purpose of carrying out flow control, MAC layer forwarding chip and the physical layer multiplex chips at different levels that connect down thereof need to judge the correct forward-path that generates the Flow Control frame in descending repeating process, make it can arrive the corresponding physical port.
Equally after certain physical port receives the Flow Control frame, in that forwarded upstream is to MAC layer forwarding chip step by step by the physical layer multiplex chip, which physical port MAC layer forwarding chip need identify this Flow Control frame from, so that this physical port is carried out flow control.
Identify the physical port related by in the Flow Control frame, adding the physics ports tab among the present invention with it, thereby all physical ports that connect under MAC layer forwarding chip should have different physical port labels, and physical port is corresponding one by one with the physical port label.
Among the present invention based on the flow process of the flow control implementation method of physical layer multiplex as shown in Figure 4.At step S410, MAC layer forwarding chip set up for each physical port and received formation.
At step S420, when certain physical port receives the shared memory space of business data frame in formation, when the length that promptly receives formation surpassed predetermined Flow Control notification threshold, MAC layer forwarding chip was this physical port generation Flow Control notification frame.
With identical in the prior art, MAC layer forwarding chip generates the Flow Control notification frame according to the communication protocol that adopts, in Ethernet, being the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of Flow Control notification frame with 0x0180c2000001 for example, is the source MAC of Flow Control notification frame with the MAC Address of this physical port.
A plurality of Flow Control notification thresholds can be set, corresponding to the Flow Control time different in the Flow Control notification frame.
At step S430, when the length of the physical port reception formation of sending the Flow Control notification frame was lower than predetermined Flow Control termination threshold value, MAC layer forwarding chip was that this physical port generates Flow Control abort frame.
If specified the Flow Control time in the Flow Control notification frame, then this step can be omitted.
At step S440, MAC layer forwarding chip adds the physical port sign of this physical port in the Flow Control frame of its generation.As previously mentioned, the physical port of each physical port is identified in all physical ports that MAC layer forwarding chip connected and has uniqueness.
At step S450, MAC layer forwarding chip and physical layer multiplex chip at different levels transfer this physical port according to the sign of the physical port in the Flow Control frame step by step with the Flow Control frame.This step is the descending repeating process of Flow Control frame.
At step S460, when certain physical port receives the Flow Control frame, this Flow Control frame forwarded upstream to MAC layer forwarding chip, and is added the physical port label of the physics inbound port of this Flow Control frame in repeating process.This step is the forwarded upstream process of Flow Control frame.
At step S470, MAC layer forwarding chip is after receiving the Flow Control frame, and the physical port label from this Flow Control frame is learnt the physical port that need carry out flow control, according to the instruction in the Flow Control frame this physical port is carried out corresponding flow control operation again.
In order to have better flow control effect, can make MAC layer forwarding chip and physical layer multiplex chip at different levels all the Flow Control frame be transmitted and handle with the priority that is higher than business data frame in the uplink and downlink direction.The physical layer multiplex chip internal is that upstream Interface is provided with buffer queue, can the dedicated buffering formation be set for the Flow Control frame, makes the dispatching priority of dedicated buffering formation be higher than the buffer queue that business data frame is used, and then can realize the preferential forwarding of Flow Control frame.
In this case, MAC layer forwarding chip and physical layer multiplex chip at different levels all need at first Flow Control frame and business data frame difference to be come, and the method for Flow Control frame and business data frame of distinguishing is determined according to the agreement that is adopted.With the Ethernet is example, can distinguish Flow Control frame and business data frame by two features, and the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of first Flow Control frame is fixed as 0x0180c2000001; It two is that the type of Flow Control frame is 0x8808.
Adopt method same as the prior art to generate the instruction that Flow Control frame, deciphering and execution receive the Flow Control frame among the present invention, with the compatibility of realization with prior art.
Step S410 carries out the process of Flow Control to the opposite end for generation Flow Control frame to step S450, and step S460 is the process that receives the Flow Control frame of opposite end and corresponding physical port is carried out Flow Control to step S470, these two processes can be applied to separately in the flow control methods, also can be in conjunction with being applied in the flow control methods.
When adopting different physical port label set-up modes, the forwarded upstream of Flow Control frame is also different thereupon with descending repeating process.Below provide the embodiment of two kinds of Flow Control frame transmitting-receiving processes to describe.
In the embodiment one of Flow Control frame transmitting-receiving process, the physical port label remains constant in the transmitting-receiving process of Flow Control frame, and the flow process of embodiment one as shown in Figure 5.
At step S510, has the physical port label of one-to-one relationship with it for all physical port settings.Owing in up reception and descending process of transmitting, all will use the physical port label, thereby the corresponding relation of each physical port and its physical port label need be set, and the physical port label of this physical port is set on each physical port of subordinate physical layer multiplex chip on MAC layer forwarding chip.
At step S520, setting up its downstream interface and the corresponding relation that is connected to the physical port label of the physical port on the MAC layer forwarding chip by this downstream interface on the MAC layer forwarding chip.The downstream interface of MAC layer forwarding chip connects the interface of the 1st level physical layer multiplexing chip for it.
Above-mentioned corresponding relation is mapped to all physical port labels on all downstream interfaces of MAC layer forwarding chip.After setting up such mapping relations, MAC layer forwarding chip by the physical port label of a physical port promptly know to one be the Flow Control frame of outbound port with this physical port, should this Flow Control frame be forwarded to the 1st level physical layer multiplexing chip from which downstream interface.
At step S530, setting up its downstream interface and the corresponding relation that is connected to the physical port label of the physical port on this physical layer multiplex chip by this downstream interface on each physical layer multiplex chip.The downstream interface of k level physical layer multiplexing chip is its interface that connects (k+1) level physical layer multiplexing chip, and wherein k is more than or equal to 1, less than the integer of n.
With similar among the step S520, above-mentioned corresponding relation is mapped to all physical port labels on all downstream interfaces of every level physical layer multiplexing chip.And on each physical layer multiplex chip, only keep the physical port sign of the part physical port that connects under this physical layer multiplex chip and the mapping relations of its downstream interface.To subordinate physical layer multiplex chip, these mapping relations are the corresponding relation of its physical port and its physical port sign.After setting up such mapping relations, each physical layer multiplex chip promptly knows which downstream interface this Flow Control frame should be forwarded to by the physical port label in the downlink flow control frame.
At step S540, when MAC layer forwarding chip generates the Flow Control frame for certain physical port, and after in this Flow Control frame, having added the physical port label of this physical port, MAC layer forwarding chip be according to the corresponding relation set up in step S520, and this Flow Control frame is forwarded to the 1st level physical layer multiplexing chip from the downstream interface corresponding with wherein physical port label.
At step S550, physical layer multiplex chips at different levels are to the Flow Control frame of descending forwarding, according to the corresponding relation of in step S530, setting up, this Flow Control frame is forwarded to and wherein the corresponding downstream interface of physical port label, until the physical port that is forwarded to subordinate physical layer multiplex chip.
At step S560, divest the physical port label in the downlink flow control frame.
At step S570, the Flow Control frame is transferred this physical port.Like this, the Flow Control frame that sends from the network equipment based on physical layer multiplex meets the consensus standard that is adopted, and can be adopted the normal identification of equipment and the execution of same agreement by other.
At step S580, after the physical port of subordinate physical layer multiplex chip receives the Flow Control frame, in this Flow Control frame, add the physical port label of its physics inbound port.
At step S590, begin by subordinate physical layer multiplex chip, the Flow Control frame that has added the physical port label by forwarded upstream step by step to MAC layer forwarding chip.
After MAC layer forwarding chip receives this Flow Control frame, according to the physical port label in the Flow Control frame, can learn which physical port this Flow Control frame derives from, promptly should control the flow of which physical port according to this Flow Control frame.
The flow process of present embodiment only relates to the forwarding of Flow Control frame, when combining with the flow control implementation method flow process of Fig. 4, to generating and sending the process of Flow Control frame, step S510 should carry out before step S420 to step S530, and step S540 to step S570 be the descending repeating process of Flow Control frame, corresponding to step S450; To receiving the Flow Control frame and carry out the process of Flow Control, step S510 should carry out before step S460 to step S530, and step S580 to step S590 be the forwarded upstream process of Flow Control frame, corresponding to step S460.
In the embodiment two of Flow Control frame transmitting-receiving process, the physical port label is made up of a plurality of parts, until the multiplexing label of n level, correspond respectively to the downstream interface label of each downstream interface on its place chip that MAC layer forwarding chip sends Flow Control frame required process of Flow Control frame to the process of this physical port comprising MAC interface label, the 1st grade of multiplexing label.The flow process of embodiment two as shown in Figure 6.
At step S610, on MAC layer forwarding chip, set up the one-to-one relationship of its downstream interface and its downstream interface label.The downstream interface label of MAC layer forwarding chip has uniqueness in all downstream interfaces of MAC layer forwarding chip.
At step S620, on each physical layer multiplex chip, set up the one-to-one relationship of its downstream interface and its downstream interface label.Similarly, the downstream interface label of each physical layer multiplex chip has uniqueness in all downstream interfaces of this physical layer multiplex chip.The downstream interface of subordinate physical layer multiplex chip is physical port.
In other words, the downstream interface label in step S610 and step S620 is unique on the chip at its downstream interface place only, and the downstream interface label on any two chips can be identical.Like this, the MAC interface label of any two physical ports has at least one to be different with the 1st grade to the multiplexing label of n level, thereby can guarantee that the physical port label of all physical ports that MAC layer forwarding chip connects is mutually different.
At step S630, when MAC layer forwarding chip generates the Flow Control frame for certain physical port, and after in this Flow Control frame, having added the physical port label of this physical port, MAC layer forwarding chip divests the MAC interface label in the physical port label in this Flow Control frame, and will divesting Flow Control frame behind the MAC interface label, to transfer with this MAC interface label be the downstream interface of downstream interface label.
At step S640, every grade of physical layer multiplex chip that receives the downlink flow control frame, divest in this Flow Control frame the multiplexing label of k level in the remainder physical port label, and will divesting Flow Control frame behind the multiplexing label of k level, to transfer with the multiplexing label of this k level be the downstream interface of downstream interface label, until the physical port that transfers subordinate physical layer multiplex chip; Wherein k is the multiplexing level of this physical layer multiplex chip.
At step S650, to the Flow Control frame that receives, every level physical layer multiplexing chip added the downstream interface label of downstream interface on this physical layer multiplex chip that receives this Flow Control frame in this Flow Control frame, as the multiplexing label of k level of this Flow Control frame, and with the Flow Control frame forwarded upstream behind the multiplexing label of interpolation k level; Wherein k is the multiplexing level of this physical layer multiplex chip.
At step S660, receive the up Flow Control frame of the 1st level physical layer multiplexing chip forwarding when MAC layer forwarding chip after, in this Flow Control frame, add the downstream interface label of downstream interface on MAC layer forwarding chip that receives this Flow Control frame, as the MAC interface label of this Flow Control frame.
Like this, MAC layer forwarding chip can learn according to physical port label complete in the Flow Control frame which physical port this Flow Control frame derives from, and promptly should control the flow of which physical port according to this Flow Control frame.
With identical among the embodiment one, the flow process of present embodiment only relates to the forwarding of Flow Control frame, when combining with the flow control implementation method flow process of Fig. 4, to generating and sending the process of Flow Control frame, step S610 should carry out before step S420 to step S620, and step S630 to step S640 be the descending repeating process of Flow Control frame, corresponding to step S450; To generating and sending the process of Flow Control frame, step S610 should carry out before step S460 to step S620, and step S650 to step S660 be the forwarded upstream process of Flow Control frame, corresponding to step S460.
As seen, in the present embodiment, before the descending forwarding that generates the Flow Control frame begins, is complete by MAC layer forwarding chip according to the physical port label that the physical port that carries out flow control adds, descending step by step forwarding along with this Flow Control frame, every grade transmit the chip of process divest the part physical port label relevant with this grade forwarding, before transferring physical port, divest whole physical port labels; The up repeating process step by step that receives the Flow Control frame is then opposite, each transmit the chip of process in the Flow Control frame, adds and the relevant part physical port label of this grade forwarding according to its incoming interface, form complete physical port label behind interpolation MAC interface label at last by it to MAC layer forwarding chip, MAC layer forwarding chip can be learnt the physical port that need carry out flow control according to this.
To MAC layer forwarding chip and physical layer multiplex chip at different levels, MAC interface label corresponding with it and the multiplexing label of this grade should be in fixing position in the Flow Control frame that arrives this grade chip, so that this grade chip can be discerned.For the purpose of convenient, MAC interface label, the 1st grade to the multiplexing label of n level can press MAC layer interface chip and the 1st grade of order of connection arrangement to n level physical layer multiplexing chip.
In the present invention, the position of physical port label in the Flow Control frame can be set by the user.For example, the physical port label can be added on the frame head of Flow Control frame before, to the Flow Control frame of VLAN (Virtual Local AreaNetwork, VLAN) label is arranged, can also be added in the vlan domain.
The present invention is by adding and physical port corresponding physical ports tab in the Flow Control frame, the pairing physical port of Flow Control frame under MAC layer forwarding chip and physical layer multiplex chip at different levels indication physical layer multiplexed situation, thereby make MAC layer forwarding chip to carry out the generation of Flow Control frame and to receive handling, realized physical port flow control based on physical layer multiplex at each physical port.
