Embodiments provide a kind of message processing method and device, empty to save the address of part VTEP in networking Between, reduce the requirement of the address space of part VTEP in networking.
A kind of message processing method provided the embodiment of the present invention below is introduced.
It should be noted that a kind of message processing method that the embodiment of the present invention is provided, can apply to first can expand Endpoint of a tunnel VTEP in exhibition Virtual Local Area Network VXLAN, in networking, only storage can have local side empty in a VTEP The forwarding information that the address of plan machine is corresponding, and in the 2nd VTEP, storage has the forwarding letter that in networking, the address of all virtual machines is corresponding Breath, so that address lookup can concentrate in the 2nd VTEP, received unicast message can be carried out by the 2nd VTEP Normal forwarding.In actual applications, the 2nd VTEP can be that BGP (Border Gateway Protocol, assist by borde gateway View) Router Reflector, additionally, this networking can be EVPN network.This unicast message can be data message or the association of clean culture View message.In networking, unicast message is the message encapsulated through VXLAN in repeating process.Report is received at VTEP Wen Hou, the most first carries out VXLAN decapsulation, before forwarding unicast message, first unicast message is carried out VXLAN encapsulation.
A kind of message processing method that the embodiment of the present invention is provided, as it is shown in figure 1, step can be included:
The unicast message that S101: sink virtual machine sends;
S102: if this locality does not stores the forwarding information that the destination address of this unicast message is corresponding, then silent according to preset Recognize forwarding information, this unicast message is forwarded to the 2nd VTEP, so that this unicast message is forwarded by the 2nd VTEP.
Oneth VTEP is previously stored with this acquiescence forwarding information preset, when a VTEP receives clean culture report Literary composition, and it was found that during forwarding information corresponding to the local destination address not storing the unicast message received, then pre-according to this If acquiescence forwarding information, the unicast message received is forwarded to the 2nd VTEP, the 2nd VTEP this unicast message is continued Forward.
Visible, the embodiment of the present invention all stores the forwarding information being related to all of virtual machine without all of VTEP, One of them VTEP is only needed to store the forwarding information about all of virtual machine, to save the address of part VTEP in networking Space, reduces the requirement of the address space to part VTEP in networking, saves Internet resources, reduces the cost of VTEP, and then Reduce the cost of networking.
It is understood that this networking both can carry out two layers of forwarding of message, three layers of forwarding of message can be carried out again, When this unicast message needs to carry out two layers of forwarding, it can be determined that whether a VTEP equipment this locality has stored this unicast message Purpose media control access MAC Address;When this unicast message needs to carry out three layers of forwarding, it can be determined that a VTEP sets The standby local purpose IP address whether storing this unicast message.
In a kind of specific implementation, a mac address table locally stored for VTEP includes the default mac preset Address list item, this default mac address list item includes: forward the packet the forwarding information to the 2nd VTEP for instruction;
If described this locality does not stores the forwarding information that the destination address of this unicast message is corresponding, then according to the acquiescence preset Forwarding information, is forwarded to this unicast message the 2nd VTEP (S102), specifically includes:
If the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message is not the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of a VTEP, and in this mac address table Do not include this target MAC (Media Access Control) address, then according to this default mac address list item, this unicast message is forwarded to the 2nd VTEP.
It should be noted that when the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message is not the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of a VTEP, then Oneth VTEP may determine that needs carry out two layers of forwarding to this unicast message, and a VTEP searches locally stored MAC ground Location table, determines in the local mac address table stored, does not stores the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message, i.e. do not stored this The forwarding information that the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of unicast message is corresponding, then according to this include for instruction forward the packet to this second The default mac address list item of the forwarding information of VTEP, is forwarded to the 2nd VTEP by this unicast message, so that the 2nd VTEP continues Forward this unicast message.
In a kind of specific implementation, a VTEP is preset with the MAC Address of the 2nd VTEP, and this first IP forward table locally stored for VTEP includes the acquiescence IP forwarding-table item preset, and this acquiescence IP forwarding-table item includes: be used for Instruction forwards the packet the forwarding information to the 2nd VTEP;
If described this locality does not stores the forwarding information that the destination address of this unicast message is corresponding, then according to the acquiescence preset Forwarding information, is forwarded to the 2nd VTEP by this unicast message, specifically includes:
If the target MAC (Media Access Control) address that the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message is a VTEP, and this IP forward table do not wrap Include the purpose IP address of this unicast message, then the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message is revised as the MAC ground of the 2nd VTEP Location, and according to this acquiescence IP forwarding-table item, amended unicast message is forwarded to the 2nd VTEP.
It is understood that when a VTEP find the target MAC (Media Access Control) address in this unicast message be self (first VTEP) target MAC (Media Access Control) address, then may determine that needs carry out three layers of forwarding to this unicast message, and a VTEP searches this locality The IP forward table of storage, finds not store in this IP forward table the purpose IP address of this unicast message, has not i.e. stored this list Report the forwarding information that the purpose IP address of literary composition is corresponding, the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message is revised as the MAC of the 2nd VTEP Address, and include the acquiescence IP forwarding-table item of the forwarding information forwarded the packet to the 2nd VTEP for instruction according to this, will Amended unicast message is forwarded to the 2nd VTEP, so that the 2nd VTEP continues to forward this amended unicast message.
In a kind of specific implementation, a forwarding information locally stored for VTEP does not include far-end virtual machine The forwarding information that address is corresponding.
Concrete, in the forwarding information that a VTEP this locality is stored, at least storage has as a side, VTEP this locality The forwarding information that the address of virtual machine is corresponding, it may also be said to be that a VTEP this locality has at least stored a side, VTEP this locality The address information (including MAC Address and the IP address of corresponding virtual machine, and the forwarding information of correspondence) of virtual machine.It is appreciated that , a VTEP receives ARP (Address Resolution Protocol, the address solution that local side virtual machine sends Analysis agreement) message, the address information of entrained virtual machine can be learnt in this ARP message, generate corresponding MAC Address list item and IP forwarding-table item;After a VTEP receives the ARP message that far-end virtual machine sends, do not learn this ARP message is taken The address information of the virtual machine of band.
In a kind of specific implementation, a VTEP can determine according to the remaining space of the address space of self be The address information of no study far-end virtual machine.After a VTEP receives the ARP message that far-end virtual machine sends, this is first years old VTEP can first judge that local remaining address space, whether less than Spatial Residual threshold value, if being not less than, then can learn this The address information about this far-end virtual machine entrained in the ARP message that far-end virtual machine is sent, when judging local institute When remaining address space is less than Spatial Residual threshold value, the threshold value about address space can be arranged to 0, i.e. give tacit consent to the most not Preserve the address information of far-end virtual machine.Wherein, this Spatial Residual threshold value is the value that the own configuration information according to VTEP determines, This Spatial Residual threshold value can be with static configuration.
In a kind of specific implementation, in order to prevent the phenomenon of broadcast loops in networking, the message i.e. forwarded, This networking is ceaselessly forwarded owing to can not find destination party.Each VTEP in this networking must support unicast message After horizontal segmentation function, i.e. VTEP receive the message forwarded and come from network side, do not allow to forward again by network side to be somebody's turn to do Message (i.e. VTEP receives the message sent from other VTEP, will not forward the packet to other VTEP again), say, that Generally, the 2nd VTEP, after receiving the unicast message sent from a VTEP, can only be transmitted to local side virtual Machine, does not allows other VTEP relaying in this networking, and in embodiments of the present invention, the 2nd VTEP need sometimes by The unicast message received, carries out forwarding (receiving the unicast message sent from a VTEP, then forwarding again by network side Other VTEP that destination address to this unicast message is corresponding) situation, now, in order to ensure the normal forwarding of unicast message, 2nd VTEP is accomplished by knowing which VTEP in advance to be needed to perform the horizontal segmentation function for unicast message, and which VTEP needs The horizontal segmentation function for unicast message is suppressed (when i.e. forwarding unicast message, to cancel the horizontal segmentation merit of corresponding VTEP Can, when forwarding broadcasting packet and multicast message, still carry out horizontal segmentation function).Concrete, if a VTEP and second Each VTEP support level dividing function in the networking of VTEP place, the most described method can also include:
Send Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) message to the 2nd VTEP, this BGP message carried horizontal segmentation suppression mark, This horizontal segmentation suppression mark for indicate the 2nd VTEP forward receive from other VTEP and need send to this first The unicast message of VTEP or the 2nd VTEP forward that receive from a VTEP and need to send the clean culture to other VTEP Message.
In one implements, this BGP message can be BGP NLRI (Network Layer Reachability Information, Network Layer Reachable Information notification packet) message.In default situations, this BGP message is not carried this for The horizontal segmentation suppression labelling of unicast message, a VTEP need to indicate the 2nd VTEP forward that receive from other VTEP and Need to send to the unicast message of a VTEP or the 2nd VTEP forward that receive from a VTEP and need to send to During the unicast message of other VTEP, can send the BGP message that carry horizontal segmentation suppression mark to the 2nd VTEP, this carries level The concrete form of the BGP NLRI message of segmentation suppression labelling, as it is shown on figure 3, wherein, should " Unknown Unicast MAC Address Forward Enable " identify and a VTEP transmission is carried out two layers of unicast message forwarded carry out level and divide Cut suppression, " Unknown Unicast IP Address Forward Enable " should identify and a VTEP transmission is entered The unicast message that row three layers forwards carries out horizontal segmentation suppression.
In one implements, when the 2nd VTEP equipment is virtual due to do not upgrade in time in locally stored networking The forwarding information of machine, occurs that the 2nd VTEP equipment this locality does not stores the forwarding information that the destination address of this unicast message is corresponding Situation time, the 2nd VTEP equipment can carry out L 2 broadcast (to this according to prior art handling process to this unicast message Unicast message carries out two layers when forwarding) or three layers abandon while forwarding (this unicast message is carried out three layers).
The message processing method provided the embodiment of the present invention below by specific embodiment is introduced.
As shown in Figure 4, in EVPN network, including VTEP and switch, in the diagram, equipment 1, equipment 2, equipment 3 and set Standby 4 be VTEP, R equipment 1 and R equipment 2 be switch.Wherein, the mac address table that equipment 1, equipment 2 and equipment 3 are stored divides Cun Chu not have: default mac address list item, this default mac address list item includes: forward the packet to equipment 4 for instruction Forwarding information, in the IP forward table stored, storage has respectively: acquiescence IP forwarding-table item, and this acquiescence IP forwarding-table item includes: Forward the packet the forwarding information to equipment 4 for instruction, and equipment 1, equipment 2 and equipment 3 are previously stored with the MAC of equipment 4 Address;In the mac address table that equipment 4 is stored, storage has: the MAC Address list item of all virtual machines, equipment 4 in this EVPN network The IP forward table stored stores and has: the IP address list item of all virtual machines in this EVPN network.Below with at this EVPN net Network is carried out illustrate as a example by the message two layers between virtual machine 10 and virtual machine 30 forwards:
Before carrying out unicast message forwarding, the forwarding to ARP message:
Virtual machine 10, in order to obtain the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of virtual machine 30, sends ARP message, the source that this ARP message carries MAC Address is the MAC Address (being designated as MAC10) of virtual machine 10, and source IP address is the IP address (being designated as IP10) of virtual machine 10, with And the IP address (being designated as IP30) that target ip address is virtual machine 30;
Equipment 1 receives the ARP message that virtual machine 10 sends, the MAC Address of study virtual machine 10 entrained by ARP message With IP address, generate corresponding MAC Address list item and IP address list item, and this ARP message is broadcasted in this EVPN network, this Time equipment 2, equipment 3 and equipment 4 can receive the ARP message after carrying out VXLAN encapsulation, handling process is roughly the same (all to this Side, ground virtual machine broadcasts this ARP message);
Equipment 1, by the MAC Address of virtual machine 10 and IP address, is advertised to equipment 4 by BGP message;This BGP message is also taken With horizontal segmentation suppression mark.Unlike the prior art, this BGP message is only advertised to equipment 4;
Equipment 4 receives the BGP message that equipment 1 sends, and parses MAC10 and IP10, generates the MAC of virtual machine 10 correspondence Address list item and IP address list item, and according to horizontal segmentation suppression mark entrained in this BGP message, suppression is for equipment 1 The horizontal segmentation function of unicast message;
Equipment 4 receives the ARP message coming from equipment 1, this ARP message is carried out VXLAN decapsulation, by ARP message To the virtual machine broadcast of local side, equipment 2 roughly the same with the process of equipment 3 (all broadcasting this ARP message);It should be noted that If equipment 4 does not also learn the corresponding forwarding information of virtual machine 10, then need to learn, in this locality according to this ARP message Generate MAC Address list item and the IP forwarding-table item of virtual machine 10 correspondence, and to this ARP message of spot broadcasting;If equipment 4 is Through learning the corresponding forwarding information of virtual machine 10, then to this ARP message of spot broadcasting;
After virtual machine 30 receives this ARP message by equipment 3, find that the target ip address of this ARP message is self, then Generating arp reply message according to this ARP message, the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of arp reply message is MAC10, and purpose IP address is IP10, source MAC is the MAC Address (being designated as MAC30) of virtual machine 30, and source IP address is that the IP address of virtual machine 30 (is designated as IP30), this arp reply message is sent to equipment 3;
After equipment 3 receives arp reply message, search the mac address table stored, do not find this arp reply message The forwarding information that target MAC (Media Access Control) address MAC10 is corresponding, by arp reply message according to default mac address list item, carries out VXLAN envelope Dress, and the arp reply message after this encapsulation is sent to equipment 4;
Equipment 3, by the MAC Address of virtual machine 30 and IP address, is advertised to equipment 4 by BGP message;This BGP message is also taken With horizontal segmentation suppression mark.Unlike the prior art, this BGP message is only advertised to equipment 4;
Equipment 4 receives the BGP message that equipment 3 sends, and parses MAC30 and IP30 and generates the MAC of virtual machine 30 correspondence Address list item and IP address list item, and according to horizontal segmentation suppression mark entrained in this BGP message, suppression is for equipment 3 The horizontal segmentation function of unicast message;
Equipment 4 receives the VXLAN channel message (the arp reply message after encapsulation) from equipment 3, to VXLAN tunnel Message carries out VXLAN decapsulation, searches the mac address table stored, determines forwarding information corresponding to target MAC (Media Access Control) address MAC10, According to this forwarding information, arp reply message carried out VXLAN encapsulation, and be forwarded to equipment 1;
Equipment 1 receives VXLAN channel message (the arp reply message after encapsulation), carries out VXLAN channel message VXLAN decapsulates, and searches the mac address table stored, determines the forwarding information that target MAC (Media Access Control) address is corresponding, believe according to this forwarding Arp reply message is forwarded to virtual machine 10 by breath, and virtual machine 10 obtains the MAC Address of virtual machine 30.
Afterwards, carrying out the forwarding of unicast message, process is as follows:
When virtual machine 10 needs to access virtual machine 30, virtual machine 10 sends unicast message, the purpose MAC ground of this unicast message Location is MAC30, and source MAC is MAC10;
After equipment 1 receives this unicast message, find that the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message is not for purpose MAC of self Address, searches the mac address table stored, and finds that target MAC (Media Access Control) address is searched unsuccessfully and (i.e. judges not store in mac address table Have the forwarding information that this target MAC (Media Access Control) address is corresponding), according to default mac address list item, after unicast message is carried out VXLAN encapsulation It is forwarded to equipment 4;
Equipment 4 receives VXLAN channel message (unicast message after encapsulation), enters the VXLAN channel message received Row VXLAN decapsulates, it is thus achieved that unicast message, find the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message for the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of self, Search the mac address table stored, determine the forwarding information that target MAC (Media Access Control) address is corresponding, according to this forwarding information again by clean culture Message is forwarded to equipment 3 after carrying out VXLAN encapsulation;
Equipment 3 receives VXLAN channel message (unicast message after encapsulation), enters the VXLAN channel message received Row VXLAN decapsulates, it is thus achieved that unicast message, find the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of this unicast message for the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of self, Search the mac address table stored, find the forwarding information that target MAC (Media Access Control) address is corresponding, according to this forwarding information by clean culture report Literary composition is transmitted to virtual machine 30;
Virtual machine 30 arrives the unicast message forwarding of virtual machine 10 and is also similar to.
