Will describe in detail as following, an embodiment is a kind of system and method that is used for carrying out at the switch of communication network port mapping.Especially, the embodiments described herein and the port mapping session network port that interrelate, that identified by the session id of distributing to port (sign) (being about to the port that switch is connected to other switch in the network) and user port (even must subscriber equipment being connected to the port of this switch) between distinguish.Generally speaking, when a side of only having created session on the switch (being user port), the user port of this session can with switch on arbitrarily other port communicate, but these user ports can not be mutual each other.This situation has been described among Fig. 1.Especially, as shown in Figure 1, on switch 100, create two sessions (session 1 and session 2).The user port 102 of session 1 is a port one-2.The user port 104 of session 2 is port 3-4.Remaining port 5-26 is a universal port 106.Owing to also create the network ports for session 1 or session 2, so the user port 102 of session 1 can communicate with the user port 104 and the universal port 106 of session 2 on the switch 100.Similarly, the user port 104 of session 2 can communicate with the user port 102 and the universal port 106 of session 1 on the switch 100.Yet the user port 102 of session 1 (port one and port 2) can not communicate with one another; Similarly, the user port 104 of session 2 (port 3 and port 4) can not communicate with one another.On the other hand, universal port 106 (port 5-26) can not be subjected to similar restriction, and can communicate with one another.
When the both sides of having created session on single switch (being the user port and the network port), the user port in the session can only communicate with the network port in the same session, and can not communicate with other port on the switch.Therefore this session has constituted the closed body about user port on switch.This situation has been described among Fig. 2.
Especially, as shown in Figure 2, two sessions (session 1 and session 2) on switch 200, have been created.The user port 202 of session 1 is a port one-2.The network port 204 of session 1 is port 25-26.The user port 206 of session 2 is port 3-4.Remaining port 5-24 is a universal port 208.Owing to created the network port 204, so the user port 202 of session 1 can only communicate with the network port 204 of session 1 for session 1.On the contrary, the user port 206 of session 2 can communicate with the network port 204 and the universal port 208 of session 1 on the switch 200.Yet same, the user port 202 of session 1 (port one and port 2) can not communicate with one another; Similarly, the user port 206 of session 2 (port 3 and port 4) can not communicate with one another.On the other hand, the network port 204 and universal port 208 (port 5-26) can not be subjected to similar restriction, and can communicate with one another.
Generally speaking, for the user port and the network port, embodiment as described herein has used following rule and has used the network port and user port to realize port mapping.
1. the port mapping session comprises session id, user port set, and/or network port set.
2. the port mapping session can be configured to have or do not have the user port and the network port.
3. the user port that has common session id can not communicate with one another.
4. user port can only participate in a port mapping session at any time.
5. user port can not be the network port, and vice versa.
6. if given session network port set is a non-NULL, then any user port of same session all can only communicate with the member in this network port set.
7. if session is configured to " two-way ", then the network port of this session can not communicate with other network port of same session.
More than said " sealing " mainly 6 provide by rule, this rule prevents that other port communicates in user port and the system.
