Embodiment
In order to solve passivity that the MAC Address self study mode of datum plane of the prior art has, not in time and A kind of MAC address learning method in VXLAN networks, Yi Jiyi are provided in the slow shortcoming of convergence, the application following examples The device of this method can be applied by planting, and the mac address information for realizing control plane is synchronous.
The application following examples are applied on any VTEP in the VXLAN networks of full connection framework as shown in Figure 1. On VTEP, the source MAC learning functionality of the data message from local network is opened, the data message from tunnel is closed Source MAC learning functionality.Because VXLAN networks need to run on TUNNEL, therefore, it is respectively configured on VTEP After VXLAN and TUNNEL, in addition it is also necessary to which VXLAN is associated or bound with TUNNEL.In addition, being set up on each VTEP One database a, i.e. VTEP has a database, is stored using the database by all tunnels in this equipment The sync message sent and received.
In the method for the embodiment of the present application, any VTEP is received after the data message from local network, carries out source MAC The study of address, the local mac address list item learnt is added in mac address forwarding table;Receive the number from tunnel After message, without the study of source MAC;When there is the change of local mac address list item in mac address forwarding table, Sync message is sent by each associated tunnel of the VXLAN in the local mac address list item with change, this is synchronously reported Text is saved in the database in this equipment.So, opposite end VTEP can just update on the VTEP of the opposite end according to the sync message Mac address forwarding table.
So as to which any VTEP has the change of local mac address list item in mac address forwarding table, such as newly-increased or reduction When, it can be sent together to opposite end VTEP by the tunnel associated with the VXLAN in the newly-increased or local mac address list item of reduction Message is walked, to notify opposite end VTEP to update the mac address forwarding table on the VTEP of the opposite end, is realized between the VTEP of tunnel two ends The active synchronization of mac address information in local mac address list item, compensate for the self study mode of the datum plane of prior art The passivity of presence, not in time with restrain slow shortcoming;It is synchronous due to having carried out MAC Address in time, accelerate network convergence speed Degree, reduces the quantity of the unknown unicast data message of destination address, reduces the waste of network bandwidth resources.Moreover, one There is a database for being used to preserve the sync message received and dispatched on all tunnels on the VTEP on VTEP, internal memory money is saved Source.
Wherein, above-mentioned sync message can use ISIS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System, Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System) protocol massages or other procotol messages realize that the application is not limited this It is fixed.
ISIS LSP (Link State Protocol Data Unit, link-state protocol are used with sync message below Data cell) message realize exemplified by illustrate.ISIS agreements are enabled on VTEP, for each tunnel configured in this equipment Road, ISIS neighbours are set up using the opposite end VTEP in the tunnel and the tunnel.So, any VTEP can be with configuring in this equipment The opposite end VTEP in tunnel set up ISIS neighbours, afterwards, it is possible to send ISIS LSP messages to the opposite end VETP in tunnel, and The ISIS LSP messages sent of opposite end VTEP are received, and the ISIS LSP messages of transmitting-receiving are saved in the LSDB in this equipment In (Link State DataBase, LSD).
In order to make it easy to understand, below first to two concepts in ISIS agreements:Primal system and virtual system carry out simple Introduce.
Primal system:Refer to primal system ID, be made up of 6 bytes, primal system ID value is VTEP bridge MAC Address, For one VTEP of unique mark in VXLAN networks.
Virtual system (also referred to as extends system):Refer to virtual system ID, be made up of 6 bytes, virtual system ID value by User's manual configuration, can configure multiple virtual system ID in a VTEP, ensured by user configuring be in VXLAN networks Uniquely.In other nodes of network, virtual system is exactly a node, the difference is that the node that virtual system ID is represented It is to be generated by actual VTEP.
Configuration virtual system can expand the ability that VTEP carries information, and a system identifier can generate 256 ISIS LSP messages, each ISIS LSP messages can encapsulate about 200 mac address informations, then a system identifier most multipotency is carried About 50,000 mac address informations, if having more than 50,000 mac address informations on VTEP, are only carried with primal system ID It is inadequate, it is necessary to configure virtual system ID to carry more mac address informations.
So, in order to carry the mac address information of renewal, in addition it is also necessary to configured on VTEP between VXLAN and virtual system One-to-one relationship, i.e. VXLAN one virtual system of correspondence, the corresponding virtual system of different VXLAN is different, so, In a certain virtual system ID ISIS LSP messages are carried, it can only encapsulate and the one-to-one VXLAN of virtual system ID And its corresponding MAC Address.
As shown in Fig. 2 having increased local mac address newly in mac address forwarding tables of any VTEP on this equipment is detected During list item, following operation can be performed:
Step S102, it is determined that virtual system ID corresponding with the VXLAN in the newly-increased local mac address list item;Afterwards Perform step S104;
Step S104, judges in the LSDB in this equipment to have sent ISIS LSP with the presence or absence of meeting the specific of following condition Message, if judging to have sent ISIS LSP messages in the absence of specific, performs step S106, if judging to have specific sent out ISIS LSP messages are sent, then perform step S110;
Wherein, the condition includes:The virtual system ID of carrying is identical with the virtual system ID determined, also, can add The ISIS LSP messages of transmission of MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in the newly-increased local mac address list item, i.e. in spy Fixed sent in ISIS LSP messages also has free space to carry the MAC Address in the newly-increased local mac address list item And its corresponding VXLAN.
Step S106, generation carries the virtual system ID determined in step S102, the newly-increased local mac address table The ISIS LSP messages of MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in, the ISIS LSP messages of generation are saved in this equipment LSDB in;Step S108 is performed afterwards;
In actual implementation process, in the case of ascending serial number, in the ISIS LSP messages of the generation also Unappropriated minimum message ID (alternatively referred to as burst number) can be carried.
Step S108, for each tunnel associated with the VXLAN in the newly-increased local mac address list item, leads to Cross the tunnel and the ISIS LSP messages of generation are sent to opposite end VTEP;
Step S110, spy is added to by the MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in the newly-increased local mac address list item It is fixed to have sent in ISIS LSP messages;Step S112 is performed afterwards;
Step S112, will for each tunnel associated with the VXLAN in the newly-increased local mac address list item The specific ISIS LSP messages that sent after addition are sent to opposite end VTEP by the tunnel.
Obviously, the specific message ID for having sent ISIS LSP messages after addition will not change.
In actual implementation process, ISIS LSP messages include heading and message body, wherein, system identifier (virtual system Unite ID or primal system ID) carry in heading, message body constitutes the various information, it is necessary to carry by least one TLV All it is encapsulated in different TLV.In the embodiment of the present application, can be carried by extending a kind of TLV of new type MAC Address and Its corresponding VXLAN.As shown in figure 3, the TLV of the new type includes following field:
Type (type):Type for representing this TLV, when the value of the type field is set to particular value, represents that this TLV is used In carrying VXLAN and its at least one corresponding MAC Address, for example, the particular value can be 147;The length of the field can be with For 1 byte;
Length (length):For carrying other all fields in this TLV in addition to the type field and Length fields Length, the value of Length fields can be set to 7+6*N, wherein, N represents the quantity of MAC Address;The length of the field can be 1 byte;
Topology-Id (topology identifier)/Nickname (pet name):For identifying sender according to actual application environment, The field is invalid in VXLAN networks, is arranged to 0, represents that MAC Address below is reached by sending this TLV source VTEP, Without distinguishing topological sum Nickname;The length of the field can be 2 bytes;
Confidence (confidence level):For to the preferred of conflict MAC Address;The length of the field can be 1 byte;
RSV (reserved bit):Fill out 0;
TAG (flag):The value of the field is set to a certain value, such as when 2, and represent immediately following field carrying is VXLAN;
VXLAN:For carrying VXLAN;The total length that RSV, TAG and VXLAN field take can be 4 bytes;
MAC:For carrying MAC Address corresponding with VXLAN above;The length of the field can be 6 bytes.
Thus, judge a certain to have sent whether can to add this in ISIS LSP messages newly-increased local in step S104 The method of MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in MAC Address list item can be:Packet maximum length is calculated (for example, 1400 Byte) and the length for having sent ISIS LSP messages difference A;Judge whether difference A is not less than B, wherein, B represents that this is new MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in the local mac address list item of increasing monopolize length required during a TLV as shown in Figure 3 Degree, can be 15 bytes;If being not less than, it is determined that this, which has sent, can add the newly-increased local mac in ISIS LSP messages MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in address list item, otherwise, it determines can not add.
In addition, as shown in figure 4, reducing local mac in mac address forwarding tables of any VTEP on this equipment is detected During address list item, following operation can be performed:
Step S202, it is determined that the virtual system ID corresponding with the VXLAN in the local mac address list item of the reduction;It Step S204 is performed afterwards;
The sheet for carrying the virtual system ID and reduction determined is found in step S204, the LSDB from this equipment The ISIS LSP messages of transmission of MAC Address in ground MAC Address list item;Step S206 is performed afterwards;
Due to having been carried before the MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in the local mac address list item of the reduction In ISIS LSP messages, by with the VXLAN be associated tunnel synchronously went out, therefore, in step S204, can this In LSDB in equipment, find and carry the virtual system ID determined in step S202, the local mac address table of the reduction The ISIS LSP messages of transmission of MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in.
Step S206, from the ISIS LSP messages of transmission found, in the local mac address list item for deleting the reduction MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN;Step S208 is performed afterwards;
Step S208, will for each associated tunnel of the VXLAN in the local mac address list item with the reduction The opposite end VTEP that ISIS LSP messages are sent to the tunnel by the tunnel has been sent after deletion.
Obviously, the message ID for having sent ISIS LSP messages after deletion will not change.
It can be seen from TLV forms as shown in Figure 3 in step S206, from the ISIS of the transmission LSP reports found MAC Address (for convenience, being designated as MAC1) in the local mac address list item of the reduction is deleted in text and its corresponding , it is necessary to which reconfiguring this has sent ISIS LSP messages during VXLAN (for convenience, being designated as VXLAN1).Specifically, due to The ISIS LSP messages of transmission for carrying MAC1 and its corresponding VXLAN1 can be found in step S204, also, can To further search for this having sent the TLV for carrying MAC1 and its corresponding VXLAN1 in ISIS LSP messages, therefore, in step MAC1 is deleted from the TLV found in rapid S206, any MAC Address is not present after MAC1 in the TLV if deleting, should TLV is deleted, if deleting after the TLV, and this, which has sent, is not present any TLV in ISIS LSP messages, then by the only bag after deletion ISIS LSP messages containing heading send opposite end VTEP, and at preset time intervals, such as after 60 seconds, delete the ISIS LSP messages;Otherwise, also there are other MAC Address in the TLV if deleting after MAC1, or, sent if deleting after the TLV this Also there are other TLV in ISIS LSP messages, then send the ISIS LSP messages of transmission after deletion.
So, by method as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4, any VTEP is increased newly or reduced in mac address forwarding table is found During local mac address list item, the ISIS LSP messages can be used to be synchronized to opposite end VTEP, moreover, when synchronous, only can be synchronous Give the opposite end VTEP in the associated tunnel of VXLAN in the newly-increased or local mac address list item of reduction, i.e. if it is newly-increased or VXLAN in the local mac address list item of reduction is unconnected to any tunnel, then the local mac address of newly-increased or reduction MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN in list item will not synchronously be gone out by any tunnel.Therefore, it is synchronous by different tunnels The MAC Address and its corresponding VXLAN gone out are probably different.
What the opposite end VTEP that any VTEP by the tunnel that is configured in this equipment, can also receive the tunnel was sent ISIS LSP messages, now, as shown in figure 5, the VTEP can perform following operation:
Step S302, judges in the LSDB in this equipment to have received ISIS LSP with the presence or absence of meeting the specific of following condition Message, if judging to have received ISIS LSP messages in the absence of specific, performs step S304, if judging to have specific connect ISIS LSP messages are received, then perform step S314;
Wherein, the condition includes:The virtual system ID of carrying and the virtual system carried in the ISIS LSP messages received The ID that unites is identical, also, the message ID identicals of message ID and the ISIS LSP messages received have received ISIS LSP messages; That is, the virtual system ID that the specific ISIS LSP messages for having received ISIS LSP messages with receiving are carried is identical, and message ID Also it is identical.
Step S304, judges in this equipment, and whether the VXLAN carried in the ISIS LSP messages received and the tunnel It is associated, if so, then performing step S306, otherwise, terminate this flow;
Step S306, according to the VXLAN and its corresponding MAC Address carried in the ISIS LSP messages received, in MAC Corresponding distal end MAC Address list item is searched in addresses forwarding table;Step S308 is performed afterwards;
