Description

A kind of guard method of point to multi-point ring and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to the ring protection technology in the network service, relate in particular to a kind of guard method and system of point to multi-point ring.
Background technology
Under the promotion of telecommunication service IPization trend; transmit net loaded business from time division multiplexing (TDM; Time Division Multiplexing) be main with IP to being main the transformation; this just need a kind ofly can effectively transmit Packet Service; and the packet transport technologies that carrier class operation management maintain (OAM, Operations Administration andMaintain) is provided and protects.Under this demand, industry has proposed Packet Transport Network (PTN, Packet Transport Network) notion, multiprotocol label switching transport frame (MPLS-TP, Transport Profile for Multi-Protocol Label Switching) is exactly the technology of a kind of PTN.
At the Internet engineering duty group (IETF, Internet Engineering Task Force) emphasize in Ding Yi the MPLS-TP demand (MPLS-TP requirements): the structure of MPLS-TP must allow traditional transmission net to be smoothly transitted into PTN, and support the packet-based service of growth fast, as IP phone (VoIP, Voice over Internet Protocol), VPN (virtual private network) (VPN, Virtual PrivateNetwork), IPTV (IPTV) etc.
At present, the application of putting multiple spot (P2MP, Point To Multipoint) is subjected to attention more and more widely, and most of traditional transmission net all is based on ring-network topology, and therefore, the protection of research P2MP looped network is significant.In existing MPLS-TP; protection scheme to the P2MP ring comprises based on quick heavy-route (FRR; Fast ReRoute) two kinds of schemes: quick heavy-route transport frame (FRR-TP; Fast Rerouting-Transport Profile) and the optimum quick heavy-route (ROM-FRR, RingOptimized Multicast Fast Rerouting) of ring.
With P2MP ring topology shown in Figure 1 is example, and operating path is: A → [B] → C → [D] → E → [F], and wherein node A is a root node, and the corresponding node of [] expression is a leaf node, and so-called leaf node promptly is meant the node of the service traffics that receive the root node transmission.In FRR-TP, if protection whole piece operating path just need all dispose a backup path for every link or each node (not comprising root node) that needs protection on this operating path, and this backup path is a point-to-point.The backup path configuration of P2MP ring shown in Figure 1 is as shown in table 1:
Link X-Y fault Backup path The nodes X fault Backup path
A-B A→F→E→D→C→B B A→F→E→D→C
B-C B→A→F→E→D→C C B→A→F→E→D
C-D C→B→A→F→E→D D C→B→A→F→E
D-E D→C→B→A→F→E E D→C→B→A→F
E-F E→D→C→B→A→F F E→D→C→B→A
Table 1
As can be seen, in the protection scheme of FRR-TP, when the P2MP ring that N node arranged is implemented protection, need the backup path of configuration 2 (N-1) bar point-to-point; In addition, the node adjacent with fault can detect link or node failure, link switchover is carried out at the node adjacent with fault, for example: in P2MP ring shown in Figure 2, solid line is represented operating path, and dotted line is represented backup path, when link B-C breaks down, link switchover is carried out in Node B and node C, promptly is switched to backup path B → A → F → E → D → C of link B-C; The service traffics that are transferred to leaf node D and F are switched to backup path from operating path and transmit through Node B the time, after service traffics are transferred to node C along backup path, service traffics are switched to operating path from backup path again and transmit, and service traffics could continue to arrive leaf node D and F along operating path like this.This shows that in this protection scheme, the waste of bandwidth is very serious, and the jumping figure of the path process of leaf node D and F neither be optimum.
ROM-FRR improves FRR-TP, and the configuration of its backup path is as shown in table 2:
The link/node fault Backup path
Link?A-B/node?B A→[F]→E→[D]→C→[B]
Link?B-C/node?C B→A→[F]→E→[D]→C
Link?C-D/node?D C→B→A→[F]→E→[D]
Link?D-E/node?E D→C→B→A→[F]→E
Link?E-F/node?F E→D→C→B→A→[F]
Table 2
As can be seen, the P2MP ring for same in the protection scheme of ROM-FRR, only needs N-1 bar backup path, and these backup paths may be point-to-points, also may be that point arrives multiple spot.
For example: in P2MP ring shown in Figure 3, solid line is represented operating path, and dotted line is represented backup path, and for link B-C, its backup path is B → A → [F] → E → [D] → C; When link B-C breaks down, link switchover is carried out in Node B, being switched to backup path from operating path during service traffics process Node B transmits, when service traffics arrived leaf node F along backup path, leaf node F received service traffics and service traffics is continued transmission along backup path; Subsequently, service traffics arrive leaf node D along backup path, and leaf node D receives service traffics.
This shows; the protection scheme of ROM-FRR has improved the operating position of bandwidth to a certain extent; but; ROM-FRR is the same with FRR-TP; all dispose the backup path of a special use at every link and each node on the protected path, a lot of if ring is gone up node, the backup path quantity that needs so to dispose also is sizable; not only configuration operation is loaded down with trivial details, also is unfavorable for saving bandwidth resources.

The guard method of P2MP ring of the present invention as shown in Figure 4, mainly may further comprise the steps:
Step 401, the root node of P2MP ring send the OAM connectivity testing message of MPLS-TP respectively along operating path and backup path.
The present invention needs the pre-configured and corresponding backup path of operating path, and only corresponding backup path of operating path, the transmission direction of this backup path is opposite with the transmission direction of operating path, and for example: configuration is A → [F] → E → [D] → C → [B] with operating path A → [B] → C → [D] → E → [F] corresponding backup path.
By the OAM detection of connectivity mechanism of MPLS-TP, the present invention periodically sends the OAM connectivity testing message along operating path and pre-configured backup path respectively by root node, in order to detect link failure and node failure.
Step 402, when not receiving OAM connectivity testing message on the operating path apart from root node leaf node farthest in default rule on the operating path, this leaf node farthest sends failure message along the return path of configuration to root node.
Default rule can be configured according to actual needs, for example can comprise: preset time, thresholding number of times etc.Rule default among the present invention is not limited only to above-mentioned the act, can also expand according to actual needs.
