Embodiment
For the purpose, technical scheme and the advantage that make the application is clearer, referring to the accompanying drawing embodiment that develops simultaneously, the application is described in further detail.
The main thought that the application proposes carries out the technical scheme that VLAN consults is: this ED and and this ED consist of two layers of link between another ED of dual-homed ED when unreachable, by the EVI link between this ED and described another ED, send the EVIIS-IS hello packet that is used for carrying out the active vlan negotiation to described another ED, consult so that can normally carry out active vlan between the dual-homed ED, thereby when two layers of link between dual-homed ED are unreachable, avoid the problem of the EVI far-end MAC address entries concussion of remote station.
For EVI IS-IS hello packet sender, when this ED and and this ED consist of two layers of link between another ED of dual-homed ED when unreachable, the EVIIS-IS hello packet of transmission in the time of can reaching with two layers of link in order to distinguish the EVIIS-IS hello packet that sends this moment, when structure EVI IS-IS hello packet, can carry the expression assigned vlan in this EVI IS-IS hello packet is the flag bit of interim active vlan, and the outside VLAN label (Tag) of this EVI IS-IS hello packet is set to this assigned vlan; Then, the EVIIS-IS hello packet of constructing is added after the EVI tunnel encapsulation, by and this another ED between EVIlink send to this another ED.As previously mentioned, assigned vlan refers to be exclusively used in and carry out the VLAN that active vlan is consulted between this dual-homed ED.
Here, interim active vlan is a kind of new vlan state, and this vlan state is different from active vlan and inactive VLAN, is used for EVI IS-IS hello packet is undertaken by the EVI link between dual-homed ED alternately.
Preferably, can be with the special vlan of EVIIS-IS hello packet and sign seat TLV(Special VLANs and Flags (VLAN-Flags) sub-TLV) in reserved field in wherein one as described flag bit, as shown in Figure 2.Fig. 2 is special vlan and the sign seat TLV of EVIIS-IS hello packet, in the example shown in Figure 2, be used as the described flag bit of the application with the 2nd in last 2 bytes, when the value of this flag bit F in certain EVI IS-IS hello packet is 1, represent that the corresponding VLAN of outside VLAN Tag of this EVIIS-IS hello packet is interim active vlan; The value of this flag bit F in this EVIIS-IS hello packet is 0 o'clock, thinks that this EVIIS-IS hello packet does not carry this flag bit, is a common EVI IS-IS hello packet.The same prior art of the physical significance of other each bits does not repeat them here among Fig. 2.
For EVI IS-IS hello packet recipient, when this ED and and this ED consist of two layers of link between another ED of dual-homed ED when unreachable, the EVIIS-IS hello packet of reception in the time of can reaching with two layers of link for the EVI IS-IS hello packet that the bottom module can correctly be processed receive this moment, can be further be in the tunnel face of activation (UP) state in all of the corresponding EVI networking of this dual-homed ED example, assigned vlan is set to interim active vlan; Like this, when receiving EVI IS-IS hello packet from the tunnel face, whether the outside VLAN Tag that at first judges this EVI IS-IS hello packet is set to interim active vlan in this tunnel face, if, then only process this EVIIS-IS hello packet, but do not transmit this EVIIS-IS hello packet.
Above-mentioned processing EVIIS-IS hello packet specifically comprises: judge that whether carrying the expression assigned vlan in this EVIIS-IS hello packet is the flag bit of interim active vlan, if carry, judge that two layers of link between this ED and this another ED continue unreachable; If do not carry, judge that unreachable the becoming of two layers of chain route between this ED and this another ED can reach, be in the tunnel face of UP state in all of the corresponding EVI networking of this dual-homed ED example, cancel the interim active vlan setting to this assigned vlan.
According to as above describing, judge among the application this ED and and this ED consist of the mode whether two layers of link between another ED of dual-homed ED can reach and comprise:
When the outbound port deexcitation (Down) of two layers of link between this ED and this another ED, correlation module among this ED needs response interface deexcitation event, thereby judge that the double layer network between this ED and this another ED breaks down, two layers of chain route between this ED and this another ED can reach become unreachable; When owing to the double layer network between dual-homed ED is congested etc. reason causes this ED do not receive before first timer is overtime from this another ED do not carry the EVI IS-IS hello packet of the described flag bit of the application the time, judge that two layers of link between this ED and this another ED are unreachable.
When the outbound port of two layers of link between this ED and this another ED reverted to UP by Down, this another ED sent the EVI IS-IS hello packet that does not carry the described flag bit of the application by these two layers of chain road directions; If this another ED can normally receive this EVIIS-IS hello packet, then expression unreachable the becoming of two layers of chain route between the two can reach, as previously mentioned, this another ED will be in the tunnel face of UP state in all of the corresponding EVI networking of this dual-homed ED example, cancel the interim active vlan setting to this assigned vlan.
A kind of improved technical scheme is: when this ED and and this ED consist of two layers of link between another ED of dual-homed ED when unreachable, assigned vlan is not set to interim active vlan immediately, but replacement first timer, if this ED did not still receive the EVIIS-IS hello packet that does not carry described flag bit from this another ED before first timer is overtime, all that then carry out at the corresponding EVI networking of dual-homed ED example are in the tunnel face of UP state, and assigned vlan is set to the operation of interim active vlan.
According to the application, interim active vlan can issue under a plurality of tunnel faces simultaneously, when the state of assigned vlan under certain tunnel face is interim state of activation, EVI IS-IS hello packet will send by the EVIlink between dual-homed ED, that is to say that the EVIIS-IS hello packet will send in the public network side.
When specific implementation, can safeguard a neighbor state table at each ED of dual-homed ED, as shown in table 1, whether being used for recording between dual-homed ED two layers can reach, and here, two layers can reach and comprise that two layers of link can reach with two layers of EVI link and can reach.
System ID Network ID Desig.VLAN State
0011.2200.0001 10000 100 Bridge
0011.2200.0101 20000 100 Route
Table 1
The physical significance of each parameter is as follows in the table 1:
System ID for neighbours ED(namely: consist of another ED of dual-homed ED with this ED) ID;
Network ID is the ID with this common place of neighbours ED EVI networking example;
Desig.VLAN is the abbreviation of Designated VLAN, is the assigned vlan of the upper configuration of ED;
Whether State is used for identifying between dual-homed ED two layers and can reaches, and State comprises three kinds of state: Bridge, Route, Temp.
When two layers of link between dual-homed ED can reach, be designated as Bridge;
When two layers unreachable (the EVI IS-IS hello packet that has the information of this ED in still not receiving from the neighbor list of opposite end ED when link Down or preset timer are overtime) between dual-homed ED, be designated as Temp;
And the EVI link that sets up between EVI IS-IS hello packet begins by dual-homed ED carries out being designated as Route when mutual.
The table of neighbor state shown in the table 1 can be used for carrying out the setting of interim active vlan and cancelling.For example: when state becomes Route by Temp, at related port interim active vlan is set; When state becomes Bridge by Temp, cancel setting to interim active vlan at related port.
Under normal circumstances, the network operation EVI Intermediate System to Intermediate System of dual-homed ED in website, mutual EVI IS-IS hello packet in assigned vlan is consulted the active vlan of each ED, maintenance of neighbor relation; When two layers of link between dual-homed ED are unreachable, the mutual EVI IS-IS of the said method hello packet that provides according to the application.In said process, can be according to the state of neighbours in the method maintenance of neighbor state table as shown in Figure 3.Method shown in Figure 3 may further comprise the steps:
Step 301: judge before preset timer (Hold timer) is overtime, whether to receive EVI IS-IS hello packet, if receive, execution in step 302, otherwise, jump to step 308.
Step 302: judge the value of the F flag bit of the EVI IS-IS hello packet of receiving, if value is 1, represent that two layers of link between dual-homed ED are unreachable, execution in step 303, if value is 0, represent that two layers of link between dual-homed ED can reach, jump to step 305.
Step 303: judge current neighbor state, if Temp, execution in step 304 is set to Route with neighbor state, and jumps to step 307; If Route jumps to step 307; If Bridge returns step 301.
Step 305: judge current neighbor state, if current neighbor state is Route or Temp, at this moment, owing to received that the flag bit value is 0 EVI IS-IS hello packet, represent that two layers of link between dual-homed ED can be reached by unreachable becoming, therefore, execution in step 306, neighbor state is set to Bridge, and continues execution in step 307; If current neighbor state is Bridge, continue execution in step 307.
Step 307: Hold timer is reset, return step 301.
Step 308: judge current neighbor state, if current neighbor state is Bridge, show that two layers of link before this Holdtimer cycle can reach, execution in step 309 temporarily is designated as Temp with neighbor state, and jumps to step 307; If current neighbor state is Route or Temp, show before this Hold timer cycle, two layers of link are unreachable, at this moment, and through the judgement of step 301, any EVI IS-IS hello packet is not still received in discovery after Hold timer is overtime, show that two layers of EVI link are also unreachable, do not exist with being connected between these neighbours, therefore, execution in step 310 is with this neighbours' deletion.
