Fig. 1 is refer to, is a kind of process chart of the message forwarding method in a kind of illustrative embodiments of the invention, Methods described is applied to the AP in MESH network, and methods described includes:
Step 101, reception data message, judge whether the data message carries the label forwarding letter for instructing forwarding Breath;If it is, going to step 102;If it is not, then going to step 103;
In the present embodiment, when AP receives data message, it can be determined that whether message is carried for instructing message to forward Label forwarding information.So-called label forwarding information includes source forwarding label and purpose forwarding label, and forwarding label is on AP During line by AC be AP distribute, each forwarding label and AP are corresponded, and other side can be learnt by message interaction between AP Forwarding label, and the corresponding relation of the forwarding label that will learn and AP recorded in local database, therefore can be made AP forwards the packet to corresponding AP by forwarding label.
When step 102, the purpose forwarding label included in the label forwarding information be not for the label of this AP, local The forwarding label of record purpose AP corresponding with the purpose forwarding label is searched in the corresponding relation of AP, and by the datagram Text is forwarded to the purpose AP;When the purpose forwarding label is the label of this AP, the label for removing the data message turns Photos and sending messages, the target MAC (Media Access Control) address according to the data message is searched MAC Address list item and is forwarded;
In the present embodiment, the MESH network includes that multiple AP, these AP are located between AC and terminal device, according to The location of AP is different, the AP in MESH network can be specifically divided into transmitting terminal AP and (refer to that sending equipment with message is connected AP), receiving terminal AP (referring to the AP being connected with message receiving device) and between transmitting terminal AP and receiving terminal AP turn Hair AP.
When AP determines that the data message for receiving carries label forwarding information, can further it is determined that the data message Label forwarding information in the purpose forwarding label that includes for the label of this AP when, it is believed that the AP is transmitting terminal AP or forwarding AP, therefore the corresponding purpose of the purpose forwarding label can be searched in the corresponding relation of the forwarding label with AP of local record AP, and by the data message forwarding to the purpose AP;When it is determined that the purpose forwarding label is the label of this AP, can be with The AP is thought for receiving terminal AP, and the AP is needed the data message forwarding to terminal device, therefore can remove the datagram The label forwarding information of text, the target MAC (Media Access Control) address according to the data message is searched MAC Address list item and is forwarded.
Whether step 103, the outgoing interface for determining whether the data message are MESHLINK mouthfuls;If it is, turning step Rapid 104;If it is not, then going to step 105;
In the present embodiment, the target MAC (Media Access Control) address that AP can further according to the data message for receiving is on local MAC ground The corresponding outgoing interface of the target MAC (Media Access Control) address is searched in the list item of location, then judges whether the outgoing interface is MESHLINK mouthfuls, if It is that then can determine that the message can be forwarded in MESH network.
Step 104, for the data message addition label forwarding information after be forwarded to next-hop AP;
Used as one embodiment, the specific method for adding label forwarding information is:AP makees the corresponding forwarding labels of this AP It is the source forwarding label of the data message;Target MAC (Media Access Control) address according to the message searches purpose in local MAC Address list item Purpose AP corresponding to MAC Address, to search the purpose AP corresponding in the corresponding relation of the forwarding label with AP of local record Forwarding label, and when finding, purpose forwarding label of the forwarding label that will be found as the message;It is the data Message adds label forwarding information, and the label forwarding information includes the source forwarding label and the purpose forwarding label.
As one embodiment, if AP does not find the mesh in the forwarding label of local record with the corresponding relation of AP The corresponding forwarding labels of AP, then can further send broadcasting packet, the broadcasting packet includes source forwarding label, described Source forwarding label be the corresponding forwarding labels of this AP so that receive the broadcasting packet AP record send broadcasting packet AP and its The corresponding relation of forwarding label;Then the response message that the purpose AP sends for the broadcasting packet, the response are received Message carries the purpose AP and its corresponding forwarding label;Then the corresponding relation of the purpose AP and its forwarding label is remembered Record is local.
Step 105, according to MAC Address list item forward.
If the outgoing interface of the data message is non-MESHLINK mouthfuls, can determine that the data message cannot be in MESH nets Forwarded in network, therefore AP can forward the data message according to MAC Address list item.
Therefore the present invention can be such that data message is forwarded by searching forwarding label between the aps, each so as to avoid The AP of jump searches conventional MAC forwarding-table items and is forwarded, and reduces the time for searching MAC forwarding-table items, improves forwarding effect Rate.
Additionally, in optional embodiment of the present invention, AP can enter one when the corresponding relation of forwarding label and AP is recorded The correspondence setting ageing time of the forwarding label and AP for local record is walked, when corresponding relation exceedes ageing time, can The corresponding relation of the forwarding label and AP is deleted, such that it is able to reduce the EMS memory occupation space of corresponding relation.
To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention become more apparent, with reference to Fig. 2 to the solution of the present invention It is described in further detail.
Refer to Fig. 2, be MESH network schematic diagram in the embodiment of the present invention, the MESH network include AC, AP1, AP2, AP3 and terminal A and terminal B, it is assumed that wherein terminal A will be sent datagram by the MESH network to terminal B, then terminal A is that message sends equipment, and terminal B is message receiving device.
In the present embodiment, AC can distribute to the fixed forwarding labels of the AP mono-, for example when some AP reaches the standard grade The forwarding label of AP1 is label 1, and the forwarding label of AP2 is label 2, and the forwarding label of AP3 is label 3, and the forwarding label is used for Carried when message is forwarded in MESH network.When some data message is forwarded in MESH network for the first time, according to the present invention The message forwarding method of offer, AP when data message is received process step as shown in figure 3, including step:
Step 301, AP1 judge whether the data message carries label forwarding information, if it is not, then going to step 302;
Specifically, AP1 is when the data message of terminal A transmissions is received, it can be determined that whether the data message carries mark Sign forwarding information.Because the data message from terminal A when terminal B is sent to, the first AP of process is AP1, therefore the data Message is also not added with label forwarding information, therefore AP1 can determine that the data message does not carry label forwarding information, so that also true AP1 is determined for transmitting terminal AP.
Step 302, AP1 judge whether the outgoing interface of the data message is MESHLINK mouthfuls, if then going to step 303;If It is no, then go to step 310;
Because AP1 determines that the data message does not carry label forwarding information, it is therefore desirable to further determine that the data message Outgoing interface whether be MESHLINK mouthfuls.AP1 can be looked into according to the target MAC (Media Access Control) address of message in local MAC Address list item The corresponding outgoing interface of the target MAC (Media Access Control) address is looked for, then judges whether the outgoing interface is MESHLINK mouthfuls.
Step 303, AP1 are that the data message adds label forwarding information and is forwarded to AP2;
When it is MESHLINK mouthfuls that AP1 determines the outgoing interface of the data message, it is believed that the message can be in MEAH Forwarded in network.Yet with not carrying label forwarding information in the data message, therefore AP1 needs to be that the data message is added Label forwarding information.Used as one embodiment, the specific method for adding label forwarding information is:AP1 is by the corresponding forwardings of this AP1 Label (label 1) as the data message source forwarding label;Target MAC (Media Access Control) address according to the message is in local MAC Address Purpose AP, the i.e. AP3 corresponding to target MAC (Media Access Control) address are searched in list item, it is then corresponding with AP3 in the forwarding label of local record Purpose forwarding label of the corresponding forwarding labels (label 3) of the purpose AP3 as the message is searched in relation;Therefore AP1 can Think the message addition label forwarding information, the label forwarding information includes the source forwarding label (label 1) and institute State purpose forwarding label (label 3).Afterwards can will add label forwarding information after data message forwarding to next-hop AP (i.e. AP2)。
Step 304, AP2 judge whether the data message carries label forwarding information, if so, then going to step 305;
AP2 is when the data message of AP1 transmissions is received, it can be determined that whether the data message carries label forwarding information. Due to the data message on AP1 added label forwarding information, therefore AP2 can determine that the data message carries label Forwarding information.
Step 305, AP2 judge whether the purpose forwarding label included in the label forwarding information is this AP;If it is not, then Go to step 306;
Through judging, the purpose forwarding label included in the label forwarding information of the data message is label 3, is not AP2 Corresponding forwarding label, thus may determine that the AP2 is forwarding AP.
Step 306, AP2 are according to purpose forwarding label by the data message forwarding to AP3;
Because the purpose forwarding label included in the label forwarding information of the data message is not the corresponding forwarding marks of AP2 Sign, therefore AP2 can to search the purpose forwarding label corresponding in the corresponding relation of the forwarding label with AP of local record Purpose AP (i.e. AP3), and by the data message forwarding to the purpose AP.
Step 307, AP3 judge whether the data message carries label forwarding information, if so, then going to step 308;
AP3 is when the data message of AP2 transmissions is received, it can be determined that whether the data message carries label forwarding information. Due to the data message on AP1 added label forwarding information, therefore AP3 can determine that the data message carries label Forwarding information.
Step 308, AP3 judge whether the purpose forwarding label included in the label forwarding information is this AP;If so, then Go to step 309;
Through judging, the purpose forwarding label included in the label forwarding information of the data message is label 3, exactly AP3 Corresponding forwarding label, thus may determine that the AP3 is receiving terminal AP.
Step 309, AP3 remove the label forwarding information of the data message, by the data message forwarding to terminal B;
When it is determined that the purpose forwarding label included in the label forwarding information is AP3, AP3 can remove the data The label forwarding information of message, the target MAC (Media Access Control) address according to the message is searched MAC Address list item and is forwarded the packet to terminal B.
Step 310, according to MAC Address list item forward.
If the outgoing interface of the data message is non-MESHLINK mouthfuls, can determine that the data message cannot be in MESH Forwarded in network, therefore AP1 can forward the message according to MAC Address list item.
As can be seen here, the present invention need to can only be looked into 3 MESH networks jumped in receiving terminal AP and transmitting terminal AP MAC address entries are looked for, MESH messages are forwarded by forwarding label in AP is forwarded, instructed such that it is able to reduce to be searched by MAC address entries The time loss of forwarding, improves forward efficiency.
