Network processing card 11 is finished the fire compartment wall main business and is handled, and each network processing card 11 provides the disposal ability that is not less than 5Gbps; Network processing card 11 adopts the polycaryon processor framework, because the function of control plane and datum plane is not conflicted substantially mutually, can highly walk abreast, utilized the advantage of multiple processor structure like this, system is deployed to control plane and datum plane in the different processors, be that a part of processor is concentrated the function of finishing control plane, other processors are concentrated and are finished the data forwarding function, conplane processor can also be taked the deployment of parallel or serial by function or performance, satisfy the demand of difference in functionality and performance to greatest extent, system has higher flexibility and extensibility.
According to a kind of embodiment, described network processing card 11 comprises the XLR series lines thread processor of RMI, and software moves on the RMI polycaryon processor, and processor provides 8 core (core processor), 32 threads, wherein 1 core processing controls plane; Other 7 core are used for Forwarding plane.In Forwarding plane, 1 core is used to finish session (session) and sets up; Other 6 core are used for data forwarding.
Communicate by 100BASE-TX (100 megabit base band TX Ethernet) Fast Ethernet between described network processing card 11 or interface card 12 and the main control card 13, also adopt the ethernet communication mode between main control card 13 and operation maintaining background and monitoring warning system.
Interface card 12 is used for the device on the firewall board plug is carried out the processing of initialization, configuration and subnetwork agreement; Protocol massages is sent to main control card 13 by communication module, to network processing card 11, and provides interface for firewall board plug data message forwarding;
Interface card 12 is used with network processing card 11 and finishes firewall functionality.Interface card 12 comprises interface CPU (central processing unit) subcard and interface exchange chip.Interface CPU subcard is responsible for the device on the interface card 12 is carried out the processing of initialization, configuration and subnetwork agreement (as ARP (address resolution) protocol massages).The interface exchange chip will be delivered to interface CPU subcard on the protocol massages, data message forwarding is arrived network processing card 11.Interface card 12 mainly comprises style interfaces such as 10GE (gigabit Ethernet), GE, POS (grouping on synchronous optical network/SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy)), photoelectricity adaptive interface for system provides multiple interfaces.
Main control card 13 is used for providing the interchange channel 12 of each interface cards, and finishes the system configuration management and the protocol processes of firewall board plug;
Main control card 13 is firewall board plug core veneers, can be inserted in master control groove position and standby master control groove position.Main control card 13 comprises master cpu subcard and master control exchange chip.
The master cpu subcard is mainly finished functions such as system configuration management etc., protocol processes.The master cpu subcard is the control unit of main control card 13.
The master control exchange chip is core in the main control card 13, it is the maincenter of firewall board plug exchanges data, the CrossBar (exchange bar switching fabric) that comprises 16 12Gbps speed ports, be responsible between each interface card 12, providing high speed, choke free interchange channel, be electrically connected by pci bus and control subsystem.
Because the status of main control card 13 in system is extremely important, so adopted the working method of active and standby pair of Hot Spare in design.Each main control card 13 must be notified each interface card 13 and opposite end main control card with status signal lines by separately active and standby, and clear and definite own operating state makes IP (procotol) bag exchange with switching network by leading.When main control card 13 breaks down, can switch to standby main control card 14 apace simultaneously, guarantee the quick clog-free exchange of packet.
Standby main control card 14 is used for when main control card 13 breaks down, and replaces main control card 13.
Described main control card 13 and standby main control card 14 pass through active and standby status signal lines announcement trunk interface card 12 and the opposite end main control card used separately, clear and definite operating state, make the procotol bag exchange with net, when main control card 13 breaks down, switch to standby main control card 14 by main.
Communication module 15 is used to provide the passage that carries out information exchange between main control card 13 and standby main control card 14, the interface card 12, mainly finishes exchanges data, routing iinformation transmission, overall routing table, safeguards the transmission of high speed signaling and data such as transmitting.Each interface card 12 is sent to Routing Protocol in the master cpu subcard by being with outer communication channel, after in the master cpu subcard, finishing corresponding protocol calculating and conversion, return interface CPU subcard by this passage again, and each ply-yarn drill is controlled by this channel transfer control command to each interface card 12.Communication module 15 adopts the chip that comprises 16 100M fast ethernet ports to carry out data communication.
The described switcher firewall plug board of the embodiment of the invention adopts a kind of novel polycaryon processor framework, utilizes the XLR series lines thread processor of RMI, realizes firewall board plug on high-end switch, thereby improves the performance of fire compartment wall, reduces development cost.
XLR series high-performance processor is SoC (SOC (system on a chip)) equipment that adopts MIPS64 nuclear, supports the C language development, does not have the restriction of code space, has avoided NP to be subjected to the restriction of specific software kit, more is applicable to flexible and changeable application and development.
The polycaryon processor framework is more emphasized the access efficiency and the utilance of processor and system storage.Even if current memory does not the most fast still catch up with the high speed processor of today, so its result produces a large amount of idle processing times, and this moment, processor was forced to wait reading of data from very slow relatively memory.This also makes entire system throughput and performance not to increase along with the increase of operating frequency, by be used in combination solution special-purpose and half programmable network processing unit, ASIC and coprocessor createed one become increasingly complex, the expensive and hardware environment that is difficult to expand, thereby force the user must between performance and availability, make painful balance.The possible solution that changes this situation can only be the general multiline procedure processor that possesses intelligence system and function integration capability of optimized throughput.The performance of polycaryon processor can reach ten times of calculated performance is the strongest in the market processor, and single chip just can be supported the network calculations task from the second layer to the layer 7 simultaneously, compares with ASIC or NP framework, and cost can save 1/3rd at least.
The described switcher firewall plug board of the embodiment of the invention adopts the architecture based on multiprocessor distributed treatment mechanism and Crossbar space switching structure, and network processing card 11 adopts the polycaryon processor framework; Employing is based on the modularized design of high speed serialization backboard, and architecture adopts present most popular multiprocessors parallel processing Crossbar space switching structure, and IP route technology and switching technology and present broadband network technology are organically combined.Aspect system design, control plane and Forwarding plane be separated in the different processors handle, the parallel processing capability by multinuclear improves the system forwards performance.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; under the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art can make various corresponding changes and distortion according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection range of the appended claim of the present invention.
