Description

Link aggregation interface communication state switching method and device
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the field of communication, in particular to a method and a device for switching communication states of a link aggregation interface.
Background
Customer Edge (CE) devices are typically Customer premises routers or switches to which service providers are connected. The CE device provides network service access for a user by connecting to a service Edge (PE) device of a service Provider network. And a communication link is established between the physical interface of the CE equipment and the physical interface of the PE equipment to realize data forwarding. In order to increase the bandwidth and improve the reliability of communication, a user binds a plurality of physical interfaces of the CE device and the PE device together by configuration, respectively, to form a link aggregation interface of the CE device and a link aggregation interface of the PE device. The CE equipment and the PE equipment establish a plurality of communication links through a plurality of physical interfaces in the link aggregation interface, and simultaneously forward data to an opposite terminal through the plurality of communication links, so as to realize load sharing of data traffic in each physical interface. In the process of forwarding data between the CE device and the PE device, in order to prevent a communication link between the CE device and the PE device from failing and causing a data packet loss, the CE device is usually connected to the first PE device and the second PE device through a link aggregation interface. The link aggregation interface of the CE device and the link aggregation interface of the first PE device are in an active state, and normal data forwarding can be performed. The link aggregation interface of the second PE device is in an inactive state, and the CE device and the second PE device do not perform data forwarding. When a communication link between the CE device and the first PE device fails, the link aggregation interface of the first PE device needs to be switched to an inactive state, and the link aggregation interface of the second PE device needs to be switched to an active state, so that the CE device stops data forwarding with the first PE device and starts data forwarding with the second PE device.
In the prior art, when a communication link between a CE device and a first PE device fails, a state switching process of link aggregation interfaces of the first PE device and a second PE device is as follows: 1. the first PE device switches a Link Aggregation interface of the first PE device to an inactive state, and sends a Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) message to the CE device, so that the CE device switches the Link Aggregation interface connected with the first PE device to the inactive interface according to the LACP message. 2. The first PE equipment sends an LACP message to the second PE equipment, and the message carries the fault information of the link aggregation interface of the first PE equipment. 3. After receiving the LACP message, the second PE device finds that the link aggregation interface of the first PE device is faulty, switches the link aggregation interface on the second PE device to an active state, and then sends the LACP message to the CE device, so that the CE device switches the link aggregation interface, connected between the CE device and the second PE device, to the active state according to the LACP message sent by the second PE device, and then the CE device can perform data forwarding with the second PE device.
However, in the prior art, when the communication states of the link aggregation interfaces of the first PE device and the second PE device need to be switched, an LACP negotiation with the CE device needs to be performed through the first PE device, the LACP negotiation with the second PE device needs to be performed through the first PE device, and the LACP negotiation with the CE device needs to be performed through the second PE device, which are performed three times of negotiation processes.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a framework structure of a link aggregation interface communication state switching system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, the system for switching the communication state of the link aggregation interface according to the present invention includes a CE device 10, and a first PE device 20 and a second PE device 30 respectively connected to the CE device 10. The first PE device 20 and the second PE device 30 are router devices provided by a service provider.

The CE device 10 is connected to the link aggregation interface PE1 of the first PE device 20 through the first link aggregation interface CE1, and is connected to the link aggregation interface PE2 of the second PE device 30 through the second link aggregation interface CE 2.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for switching a communication state of a link aggregation interface according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The voice recognition method of the embodiment of the invention is realized by the link aggregation interface communication state switching system shown in fig. 1. Specifically, referring to fig. 2, the method for switching the communication state of the link aggregation interface according to the embodiment of the present invention includes:
s101: the method comprises the steps that a user edge (CE) device determines whether a link between a first link aggregation interface of the CE device and a link aggregation interface of a first service edge (PE) device fails;
specifically, the determining, by the customer edge CE device, whether a link between a first link aggregation interface of the CE device and a link aggregation interface of a first service edge PE device fails includes:
the CE device determines whether the number of links in an active state between a first link aggregation interface of the CE device and a link aggregation interface of the first PE device is less than a preset threshold.
If the number of links in an active state between the first link aggregation interface of the CE device and the link aggregation interface of the first PE device is less than a preset threshold value, the CE device and the PE device are connected in series
And the CE device switches the first link aggregation interface into an inactive state and switches a second link aggregation interface connected with the second PE device into an active state.
Specifically, the first link aggregation interface is a logical interface bound by one or more physical interfaces. Thus, the first link aggregation interface comprises one or more physical interfaces, one for each communication link. In the process of communicating between the CE device and the first PE device, the current communication state of each link between the CE device and the first PE device may be obtained. In order to guarantee the communication quality between the CE device and the master device, the CE device configures the switching condition of the link aggregation interface in advance. For example: configuring a threshold for a minimum number of links that remain active between the CE device and a primary device. And if the number of the active links between the CE equipment and the current main equipment is less than the preset threshold value, indicating that the communication quality of the current main equipment is poor and switching is required.
S102: and if the link fails, the CE device switches the first link aggregation interface to an inactive state, and switches a second link aggregation interface, connected with a second PE device, of the CE device to an active state.
Specifically, when the CE device determines that the number of links in an active state between a first link aggregation interface of the CE device and a link aggregation interface of the first PE device is smaller than the preset threshold, it is determined that a link between the CE device and the first PE device fails. At this time, the CE device may switch the states of the first link aggregation interface and the second link aggregation interface, so that the CE device no longer communicates with the first PE device.
S103: and the CE equipment sends a first Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) message to second PE equipment through the second link aggregation interface so that the second PE equipment switches the link aggregation interface of the second PE equipment into an active state to communicate with the CE equipment.
Specifically, the first link aggregation interface and the second link aggregation interface are both configured on the CE device, and are used to implement communication switching between the CE device and the first PE device and the second PE device by switching states of the first link aggregation interface and the second link aggregation interface on the CE device. And when the first link aggregation interface of the CE device and the link aggregation interface of the first PE device are in an active state, performing data forwarding between the CE device and the first PE device in the current state, and when the first link aggregation interface of the CE device and the link aggregation interface of the first PE device are in an inactive state, not performing data forwarding between the CE device and the first PE device.
S104: the second service edge PE device receives the first LACP message sent by a second link aggregation interface of the user edge CE device through the link aggregation interface;
specifically, the CE device may notify the second PE device of information such as its own system priority information, system Media Access Control (MAC) address, interface priority information, and interface number by sending the first LACP packet to the second PE device.
S105: and the second PE equipment switches the link aggregation interface of the second PE into an active state according to the first LACP message.
After receiving the information sent by the CE device, the second PE device may compare the information with information stored in a physical interface of the second PE device, and the two parties agree on which physical interfaces can become active interfaces, thereby determining which physical interfaces on the second PE device can become active interfaces, and forming a link aggregation interface for communicating with the CE device.
On the basis of the foregoing embodiment, before the customer edge CE device determines whether a link between a first link aggregation interface of the CE device and a link aggregation interface of a first service edge PE device fails, the method further includes:
and the CE equipment determines that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state.
Specifically, the CE may determine the active states of the first link aggregation interface and the second link aggregation interface in several ways, including but not limited to:
in one implementation, before the determining, by the CE device, that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state, the method further includes: the CE equipment receives a second LACP message sent by the first PE equipment through the first link aggregation interface, and receives a third LACP message sent by the second PE equipment through the second link aggregation interface;
the determining, by the CE device, that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state, and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state, where the determining includes:
and determining that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state according to the second LACP message and the third LACP message.
Specifically, the second LACP message carries a system identifier (Identification, abbreviated as ID) of the first PE device, and the third LACP message carries a system ID of the second PE device.
The determining, by the CE device, that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state, and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state, includes:
and determining that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state according to the system Identification (ID) of the first PE device and the system ID of the second PE device. Specifically, the system ID of the first PE device may include a MAC address and system priority information of the first PE device, and the system ID of the second PE device may include a MAC address and system priority information of the second PE device.
In another implementation, the determining, by the CE device, that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state includes:
and the CE equipment determines that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state according to preset configuration information.
Specifically, a user may specify the CE device to communicate with the first PE device as needed, and the CE device may determine that the first link aggregation interface is in an active state and the second link aggregation interface is in an inactive state according to preset configuration information. The CE device may communicate with the first PE device.
In the above method, the first PE device may itself sense the communication state of the link between the CE device and the first PE device, that is, the first PE device may know whether the link is faulty or not and the number of links that maintain an active state. When the first PE device determines that the communication state between the first PE device and the CE device no longer satisfies the communication requirement, the first PE device may switch the state of the first link aggregation interface to an inactive state by itself, and the first PE device does not forward data to the CE device any more, without the CE device initiating LACP negotiation to the first PE device.
In the method for switching communication states of a link aggregation interface provided in the embodiment of the present invention, two link aggregation interfaces (that is, the first link aggregation interface and the second link aggregation interface) are configured in the CE device and are respectively connected to the first PE device and the second PE device, and when the CE device determines that the number of active links between the CE device and the first PE device is smaller than a preset threshold, the CE device switches the second link aggregation interface to an active state and initiates LACP negotiation with the second PE device, so that the second PE device determines the link aggregation interface in communication with the CE device, and data forwarding between the CE device and the second PE device can be implemented. By adopting the link aggregation interface communication state switching method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the communication state switching between the CE device and the first PE device and the second PE device can be realized only by initiating LACP negotiation once by the CE device, the switching process is simple, the switching speed of cross-device link aggregation is improved, and the system resources are saved.
