Description

The guard method in Ethernet tunnel and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to the protection switching technique in the Ethernet, relate in particular to the guard method and the device in a kind of Ethernet tunnel.
Background technology
Along with carrier class Ethernet (CE, Carrier Ethernet) proposition of notion, for satisfying the continuous high data rate demand of communication network, connection-oriented ethernet technology---operator backbone transmits (PBT, Provider Backbone Transport) and also emerges in October, 2005.After this, all there is operator to adopt the networking of PBT technology both at home and abroad, for the development of PBT technology in metropolitan area network provides the good beginning.
The basis of PBT technology is Institute of Electrical and Electric Engineers (IEEE, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineer) the operator backbone bridge joint (PBB of 802.1ah definition, Provider Backbone Bridge) technology, IEEE calls the PBT technology operator backbone bridging technology (PBB-TE, Provider Backbone Bridge Traffic Engineering) of supporting traffic engineering.The PBB-TE technology is based on the PBB technology, its core is that the PBB technology is improved, the source device of CE inserts backbone network target MAC (Media Access Control) address (B-DA at the head of message, Backbone Destination MAC Address), the source MAC (B-SA of backbone network, Backbone Source MAC Address), backbone network VLAN (B-VLAN, Backbone Virtual Local Area Network) and Service Instance mark (I-TAG, Service Instance TAG).The source device of CE and the forward-path between the destination device are static configuration in advance, and middle CE equipment can be transmitted the forward efficiency height based on B-DA in transmitting and B-VID to Frame.
In order to make Ethernet reach telecommunications rank standard, PBB-TE adopts resist technology usually.Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the end-to-end linear protection in Ethernet tunnel in the prior art, and as shown in Figure 1, solid line is represented work tunnel end to end, and chain-dotted line is represented backup tunnel end to end, and the chain-dotted line of band four-headed arrow is represented VLAN.The end-to-end main tunnel of certain traffic engineering Service Instance (TESI) be TN1:PE1 ← → P1 ← → P2 ← → P3 ← → PE2, PE1 and PE2 are the end of this tunnel example.Backup tunnel TN2:PE1 ← → P5 ← → P6 ← → PE2 is the end-to-end backup tunnel of this traffic engineering Service Instance, in order to distinguish above-mentioned main tunnel TN1 and backup tunnel TN2, be that main tunnel TN1 specifies B-VLAN1 when pre-configured, over run tunnel TN2 specifies B-VLAN2.When end-to-end main tunnel TN1 breaks down, data flow can be switched on the backup tunnel TN2.
PBB-TE adopts connectivity fault management (CFM, the Connectivity Fault Management) mechanism among the IEEE 802.1ag to come tunnel state in the monitoring network constantly.When leading, can transfer to business automatically on the backup path of setting up in advance, realize the protecting tunnel technology with tunnel failure.
In the prior art, check that by the general character that defines among the IEEE 802.1ag of the company of transmission in the tunnel message (CCM, Continuity Check Message) detects the connectedness in tunnel.Fig. 2 is a protecting tunnel principle schematic end to end among the PBB-TE, and as shown in Figure 2, solid line is represented work tunnel end to end, and chain-dotted line is represented backup tunnel end to end.Send CCM mutually along main tunnel TN1 and backup tunnel TN2 respectively between endpoint of a tunnel PE1 and the PE2, the CCM of main tunnel and backup tunnel encapsulates B-VLAN1 and B-VLAN2 respectively.This method has realized the complete trails protection in tunnel.
For realizing protection, can adopt the method for configuration TESI to two-way communication.The traffic engineering Service Instance TESI of a point-to-point is made up of the ESP of a pair of two-way point-to-point, about the specific descriptions of tlv triple and TESI can be referring to IEEE 802.1Qay standard.
Though the resist technology end to end of PBB-TE can effectively be protected the tunnel, not only protection switch time is longer for this protection scheme end to end, and the node that involves is too many.Therefore, the IEEE tissue has proposed PBB-TE localised protection scheme.Fig. 3 is a PBB-TE stage casing protection philosophy schematic diagram, and as shown in Figure 3, fine line is represented work tunnel end to end; thin dashed line is represented backup tunnel end to end; heavy line is represented active section, and thick chain-dotted line is represented backup segment end to end, and the chain-dotted line of band four-headed arrow is represented VLAN.P1-P2-P3 be carried main end to end tunnel TN1 (PE1 ← → P1 ← → P2 ← → P3 ← → physical link (section of being called) in PE2) part path, can protect with backup P1-P4-P3 physical link.Maximum not being both of protection end to end of the segment protect scheme of PBB-TE and PBB-TE: the segment protect scheme is based on the protection of physical link, and protection scheme is based on the protection in tunnel end to end.
In order to realize the function of the segment protect among the PBB-TE, the CCM message needs simultaneously their integrality of checking on the work entity of protected field and protection entity.Fig. 4 is another schematic diagram of PBB-TE stage casing protection philosophy; as shown in Figure 4; fine line is represented work tunnel end to end; heavy line is represented active section; thick chain-dotted line is represented backup segment end to end; send CCM mutually along work entity (P1-P2-P3) and protection entity (P1-P4-P3) respectively between end points P1 and the P3, the CCM of work entity and protection entity encapsulates corresponding B-VLAN (specifically adopting which kind of B-VLAN mode to encapsulate does not also determine) respectively.This method has realized excellent protection to the local path (physical pathway) in tunnel.
Though the resist technology of TESI end to end of PBB-TE can effectively be protected the tunnel, this protection scheme of TESI end to end protection switch time is very long.And the above-mentioned protection based on section is switched mature technique is not arranged as yet.
