Embodiment
To combine accompanying drawing of the present invention below, the technical scheme in the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be carried out clear, complete description.
The MPLS-TP looped network protection implementation method that the present invention proposes is through creating the looped network protection group, and in the process of in this looped network, transmitting and receiving according to message, the different operating state according to network element carries out different processing, with the reliability of guarantee network.
What the present invention created the looped network protection group mainly comprises following process:
Sign creates NE: the network element that this stage is mainly in the looped network distributes a unique sign; Adopt numeral to come representation; A network element in each digital unique identification looped network, sign can adopt the manual configuration fraction, also can employ system's MAC Address certainly and calculate.As shown in Figure 1, the device A allocation identification is 1, and the equipment B allocation identification is 2, and equipment C allocation identification is 3, and equipment D allocation identification is 4.
Create the mapping table of LSP (Label Switching Path, label switched path) and outlet network element: this stage is mainly the binding relationship of creating outlet network element ID that each bar protected LSP in looped network and corresponding MPLS forwarding label (promptly this network element of LSP in the table one goes into to identify).In the binding relationship table, if being intermediate node then this network element of protected LSP, this network element identifies with the corresponding label of going into, used corresponding FEC to identify if this network element protects the start node of LSP and represent that binding relationship is shown in following table one:

As shown in Figure 5, in the looped network protection group, when two interfaces in the looped network of network element place all during operate as normal, the protection group gets into normal operating conditions; When network element was in this state, all messages were normally transmitted by original route.
When an interface broke down in the looped network of network element place, the looped network protection group got into the protection operating state, and when network element was in this state, institute's handlebar faulty link was done following the processing as the message of next jumping:
If LSP is a start node by protection; Then from the mapping table of creating LSP and outlet network element, search corresponding outlet network element ID and the label that enters the mouth; Be pressed into the inlet label to the data message that will transmit then and according to the head of outlet network element ID encapsulation GACH, the label that finally is pressed into Break-and-Continue LSP gets into looped network and is transferred to outlet network element ID corresponding net element node.
If LSP is an intermediate node by protection; Then from the mapping table of LSP and outlet network element, search corresponding outlet network element ID and the label that enters the mouth; Be exchanged into the inlet label to the label of the data message that will transmit then and according to the head of outlet network element ID encapsulation GACH, the label that finally is pressed into Break-and-Continue LSP gets into looped network and is transferred to outlet network element ID corresponding net element node.
Be illustrated in figure 6 as the state variation flow chart of MPLS-TP looped network protection implementation method of the present invention in network application; When the listens for network event module in the network finds that the network thing takes place; The decision event type is that break down incident or port failure of port recovers incident, and the incident if port breaks down then finds the corresponding looped network protection group of fault interface; The message reception of normal state and the flow that sends are switched to the protection path, make the looped network protection group get into the protection operating state.
When network event is port failure recovery incident; Find the corresponding looped network protection group of fault interface; And the flow under the guard mode is returned in the path of former normal operating conditions; Thereby when being implemented in port network and breaking down, realize the quick protection of network path is switched, reach the application demand of transmission network.
