Description

Two-layer network and loopback detection method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a two-layer network and a loopback detection method of the two-layer network, which are suitable for applying Bit Indexed Explicit Replication (BIER) to a scene of the two-layer network, wherein the two-layer network is a data link layer network.
Background
In the current ethernet, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has established a set of Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) mechanisms for ethernet, and has been promulgated as the 802.1ag standard in 2007.
The IEEE 802.1ag standard defines an OAM functional logic entity in an ethernet, which includes Maintenance End Points (MEP) located at both ends of an ethernet transmission path and a Maintenance Intermediate Point (MIP) located in the middle of the ethernet transmission path; the Maintenance end Point and the Maintenance intermediate Point are collectively called as Maintenance Point (MP for short); the maintenance points in the Ethernet are all established based on the ports of the network nodes, and the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the port is the MAC address of the maintenance point established based on the port; loopback detection is one of ethernet OAM functions defined by IEEE 802.1ag standard, which functions from MEP to MEP or MEP to MIP in order to detect failure of the whole or a section of the ethernet transmission path, wherein the failure of the ethernet transmission path includes both failure of the link between network nodes and forwarding failure of the network nodes.
The IEEE 802.1ag standard provides a loopback detection mechanism based on MAC forwarding, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of the loopback detection mechanism based on MAC forwarding in the prior art, as shown in fig. 1, switch 1 and switch 4 each create 1 MEP and 1 MIP, and switch 2 and switch 3 each create two MIPs, where the MEP created by switch 1 is MEP1, the MIP created by switch 1 is MIP1, the MEP created by switch 4 is MEP2, and the MIP created by switch 4 is MIP 6; the two MIPs created by switch 2 are MIP2 and MIP3, respectively, and the two MIPs created by switch 3 are denoted MIP4 and MIP5, respectively; on the basis of fig. 1, an exemplary loopback detection process includes the following steps:
step 1, after a network operator inputs an address of MIP5 and starts a loopback detection function from MEP1 to MIP5, MEP1 sends a loopback detection message with the address of MIP5 as a destination MAC address to MIP5, and the message reaches MIP5 along a loopback detection message transmission path (i.e. a transmission path forwarded based on MAC).
Step 2, after receiving the loopback detection message and detecting it without errors, the MIP5 replies a loopback response message to the MEP1 sending the message along the loopback response message transmission path.
And step 3, after receiving the loopback response message replied by the MIP5 and detecting the loopback response message without errors, the MEP1 returns a report of successful loopback detection to the network operator.
U.S. patent application US2015078380(Bit expressed application Replication For Layer 2Networking) discloses a method For realizing a BIER two-Layer network, which comprises the following steps: a BIER Tag (BIER Tag) and a Bit Mask (Bit Mask) in the header of the ethernet frame are defined. Firstly, the network edge node will encapsulate the BIER label and the bit mask in the frame header of the ethernet frame entering the network, and then the network node will forward the multicast ethernet frame based on the BIER label carrying the bit mask. Specifically, two mutually independent forwarding tables, namely an MAC forwarding table and a BIER forwarding table, are stored on the network node and are respectively used for forwarding the unicast ethernet frame and the multicast ethernet frame, wherein the MAC forwarding table is used for forwarding the unicast ethernet frame, and the BIER forwarding table is used for forwarding the multicast ethernet frame. For ethernet frames that need to be forwarded, the network node extracts the destination MAC address and BIER label of the ethernet frame. When the destination MAC address of the Ethernet frame is a unicast MAC address, ignoring the BIER label, searching an MAC forwarding table according to the destination MAC address and forwarding a message according to a forwarding mechanism of the MAC; and when the destination MAC address of the Ethernet frame is the multicast MAC address, ignoring the destination MAC address, searching a BIER forwarding table according to the BIER label and forwarding the message according to a forwarding mechanism of the BIER.
When the loopback detection function is applied to a BIER two-layer network, loopback detection of a BIER forwarding table on a transmission path to be detected cannot be realized for an application scene of loopback detection from MEP to MIP.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
An embodiment of the present invention describes a loopback detection method for a two-layer network, and fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of the loopback detection method for the two-layer network according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the flow chart includes:
step 201: after any network node in the two-layer network is configured with the MIP for detecting the BIER forwarding table or the MIP for detecting the MAC forwarding table, the MIP address for detecting the BIER forwarding table or the MIP address for detecting the MAC forwarding table is sent to all the other network nodes in the two-layer network.
That is, if any network node in the two-layer network configures MIP for detecting the BIER forwarding table, the MIP address for detecting the BIER forwarding table is notified to all the other network nodes in the two-layer network; if any network node in the two-layer network configures MIP for detecting the MAC forwarding table, the MIP address for detecting the MAC forwarding table is announced to all the other network nodes in the two-layer network.
It should be noted that one MIP cannot be configured to be the MIP for detecting the BIER forwarding table and the MIP for detecting the MAC forwarding table at the same time, and MIPs located on the same loopback detection packet transmission path can be configured to be the MIP for detecting the BIER forwarding table or the MIP for detecting the MAC forwarding table at the same time.
Further, when any network node in the two-layer network receives a MIP address for detecting the BIER forwarding table, adding the received MIP address to the address filtering table, and configuring the received MIP address as a MIP address forwarded based on the BIER forwarding table; when any network node in the two-layer network receives the MIP address for detecting the MAC forwarding table, the received MIP address is added to the address filtering table, and the received MIP address is configured to be the MIP address forwarded based on the MAC forwarding table.
The address filtering table is used for selecting BIER forwarding or MAC forwarding for a specific message destination MAC address, and specifically, classifying a message carrying the specific message destination MAC address into a BIER forwarding table for forwarding based on a BIER label in the message or an MAC forwarding table for forwarding based on the message destination MAC address; in the prior art, the message carrying the destination MAC address of the unicast message is assigned to the MAC forwarding table, and the message carrying the destination MAC address of the multicast message is assigned to the BIER forwarding table.
If the network node receives the MIP address which is used for detecting the BIER forwarding table and is advertised by other network nodes, the MIP address is added to an address filtering table, and the MIP address is configured to be the MIP address forwarded based on the BIER forwarding table; if the network node receives the MIP address which is advertised by other network nodes and used for detecting the MAC forwarding table, the MIP address is added to the address filtering table, and the MIP address is configured to be the MIP address which is forwarded based on the MAC forwarding table.
Step 202: after the loopback detection function from the maintenance end point MEP to the target MIP is started, the MEP sends a loopback detection message carrying the target MIP address.
In an implementation manner of this step, a network operator inputs an address of a target MIP, and after starting a loopback detection function from an MEP to the target MIP, the MEP sends a loopback detection message with a target MAC address being the target MIP address input by the network operator.
Here, the MEP and the target MIP in this step are both maintenance points configured in the network by the network operator, the maintenance points are configured based on the ports, the MEP address is the MAC address of the port where the MEP is located, the address of the target MIP is the MAC address of the port where the MIP is located, and the MAC addresses of all the ports in the network are unicast addresses. In this step, the address of the target MIP input by the network operator is the unicast MAC address of the port where the MIP is located; that is, the address of the target MIP is the unicast MAC address of the port where the target MIP is located.
In the ethernet network supporting BIER, there are two ways for forwarding the loopback detection message sent by MEP to MIP, one is forwarding based on BIER, and the other is forwarding based on MAC.
Step 203: after any network node in the two-layer network receives the loopback detection message, when the network node is not configured with MIP or the configured MIP address is inconsistent with the target MIP address, forwarding based on a BIER forwarding table or forwarding based on an MAC forwarding table is carried out on the loopback detection message according to the target MIP address.
In an implementation manner of this step, when the network node does not configure the MIP, or the configured MIP address is inconsistent with the target MIP address, the network node selects the loopback detection packet to perform forwarding based on the BIER forwarding table or forwarding based on the MAC forwarding table by comparing the target MIP address with the MIP address in the address filtering table.
Further, after receiving the loopback detection message, any network node in the two-layer network terminates the loopback detection message when the address of the MIP configured by the network node is consistent with the target MIP address.
That is, after receiving the loopback detection message, any network node in the two-layer network selects BIER forwarding or MAC forwarding according to the address filtering table until the network node with the configured MIP address consistent with the destination address of the loopback detection message terminates the message.
If the network node is not configured with MIP, after receiving a loopback detection message sent by MEP, searching an address filtering table based on a destination MAC address of the message, and selecting a BIER forwarding table or an MAC forwarding table for forwarding according to the address filtering table.
If the network node is configured with MIP, after receiving the loopback detection message sent by MEP, the target MAC address of the loopback detection message is compared with the address of MIP configured on the network node. If the two addresses are consistent, terminating the message and performing further loopback detection message processing; if the two addresses are not consistent, the message is not terminated, but an address filtering table is searched based on the destination MAC address of the message, and a BIER forwarding table or an MAC forwarding table is selected according to the address filtering table for forwarding.
By applying the loopback detection method of the two-layer network in the embodiment of the invention, for the application scene of loopback detection from MEP to MIP, the loopback detection of the MAC forwarding table on the transmission path to be detected can be realized, and the loopback detection of the BIER forwarding table on the transmission path to be detected can also be realized.
Example one
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of an implementation of loop-back detection in a BIER two-tier network according to a first embodiment of the present invention, where as shown in fig. 3, the BIER two-tier network includes 16 BIER switches, and the 16 BIER switches are BIER switch 1, BIER switch 2, BIER switch 3, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 5, BIER switch 6, BIER switch 7, BIER switch 8, BIER switch 9, BIER switch 10, BIER switch 11, BIER switch 12, BIER switch 13, BIER switch 14, BIER switch 15, and BIER switch 16; the 16 BIER switches are switches supporting BIER forwarding and MAC forwarding, and a transmission path from BIER switch 1 to BIER switch 15 after passing through BIER switch 2, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 7 and BIER switch 11 and based on BIER forwarding is a transmission path to be detected.
A network operator configures two MEPs on a transmission path to be detected, wherein MEP1 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 1, and MEP2 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 15; in addition, the network operator configures MIP1 on port 1 of BIER switch 7 for detecting BIER forwarding tables.
In one implementation, BIER forwarding based loop-back detection from MEP1 to MIP1 mainly includes the following steps:
step 11: after the network operator configures MIP1 on port 1 of BIER switch 7 for detecting BIER forwarding tables, BIER switch 7 advertises the address of MIP1 and an indication of MIP1 for detecting BIER forwarding tables to all other network nodes of the BIER two-layer network.
Illustratively, the address of MIP1 IS the MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of port 1 of BIER switch 7, and BIER switch 7 may notify the address of MIP1 and the indication that MIP1 IS used to detect BIER forwarding table to other BIER switches in the network through an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol, or an Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) protocol, or other notification protocols, where the address of MIP1 occupies six bytes and the indication that MIP1 IS used to detect BIER forwarding table occupies one bit.
Step 12: after receiving the MIP1 address advertised by the BIER switch 7 and the indication that MIP1 is used for detecting the BIER forwarding table, other BIER switches except the BIER switch 7 in the BIER two-layer network add the MIP1 address to the address filtering table, so that the MIP1 address corresponds to the BIER forwarding table.
Step 13: after a network operator starts a loopback detection function from MEP1 to MIP1, MEP1 sends a loopback detection message with a destination MAC address of MIP1 address 00-11-22-00-00-71.
The loopback detection message sent by MEP1 carries a BIER label and a bit mask for BIER forwarding, wherein the value of the bit mask should instruct the BIER switch to forward the loopback detection message along the transmission path to be detected.
Step 14: after receiving the loopback detection message, each BIER switch selects a BIER forwarding table according to the address filtering table to forward the message until the BIER switch 7 terminates the message according to the destination MAC address of the loopback detection message.
Specifically, after receiving the loopback detection message sent by MEP1, BIER switch 2 searches an address filtering table based on destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message, and selects BIER forwarding according to the address filtering table, so BIER switch 2 performs BIER forwarding on the message based on a BIER label and a bit mask carried by the message, and sends the message to its next-hop BIER switch 4.
After receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by the BIER switch 2, the BIER switch 4 searches an address filtering table based on the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message, selects BIER forwarding according to the address filtering table, and then the BIER switch 4 performs BIER forwarding on the message based on the BIER label and the bit mask carried by the message and sends the message to the next-hop BIER switch 7.
Since the BIER switch 7 is configured with MIP, after receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by the BIER switch 4, the BIER switch 7 compares the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message with the address of MIP1 configured on the BIER switch 7, and as a result of the comparison, the destination MAC address of the message is consistent with the address of MIP1, so that the BIER switch 7 does not forward the loopback detection message any more, and the loopback detection message is terminated by MIP1 and further processed.
Example two
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of an implementation of loop-back detection in a BIER two-tier network according to a second embodiment of the present invention, where the BIER two-tier network includes 16 BIER switches, and the 16 BIER switches are BIER switch 1, BIER switch 2, BIER switch 3, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 5, BIER switch 6, BIER switch 7, BIER switch 8, BIER switch 9, BIER switch 10, BIER switch 11, BIER switch 12, BIER switch 13, BIER switch 14, BIER switch 15, and BIER switch 16, respectively; the 16 BIER switches are switches supporting BIER forwarding and MAC forwarding, and a transmission path from BIER switch 1 to BIER switch 15 after passing through BIER switch 2, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 7 and BIER switch 11 and based on BIER forwarding is a transmission path to be detected.
A network operator configures two MEPs on a transmission path to be detected, wherein MEP1 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 1, and MEP2 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 15; in addition, the network operator configures MIP1 for detecting BIER forwarding tables on port 1 of BIER switch 4, and configures MIP2 for detecting BIER forwarding tables on port 1 of BIER switch 7.
In one implementation, BIER forwarding based loop-back detection from MEP1 to MIP2 mainly includes the following steps:
step 21: after the network operator configures MIP2 for detecting the BIER forwarding table on port 1 of BIER switch 7, BIER switch 7 advertises the address of MIP2 and an indication that MIP2 is used for detecting the BIER forwarding table to all other network nodes of the BIER two-layer network; likewise, BIER switch 4 will also advertise to all other network nodes of the BIER two-layer network the address of MIP1 and an indication that MIP1 is used to detect BIER forwarding tables.
Here, the address of MIP2 IS the MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of port 1 of BIER switch 7, BIER switch 7 may advertise the address of MIP2 and the indication that MIP2 IS used to detect BIER forwarding table to other BIER switches in the network through OSPF protocol, or IS-IS protocol, or other advertising protocol, where the address of MIP2 occupies six bytes, and the indication that MIP2 IS used to detect BIER forwarding table occupies one bit. BIER switch 4 also advertises the address of MIP1 and the indication of MIP1 to detect BIER forwarding tables outward in the same way.
Step 22: after receiving the MIP2 address advertised by the BIER switch 7 and the indication that MIP2 is used for detecting the BIER forwarding table, other BIER switches except the BIER switch 7 in the BIER two-layer network add the MIP2 address to the address filtering table, so that the MIP2 address corresponds to the BIER forwarding table. Similarly, after receiving the MIP1 address advertised by BIER switch 4 and an indication that MIP1 was used to detect BIER forwarding tables, BIER switches other than BIER switch 4 in the BIER two-tier network add the MIP1 address to the address filtering table so that MIP1 address corresponds to BIER forwarding tables.
Step 23: after a network operator starts a loopback detection function from MEP1 to MIP2, MEP1 sends a loopback detection message with a destination MAC address of MIP2 address 00-11-22-00-00-71.
The loopback detection message sent by MEP1 carries a BIER label and a bit mask for BIER forwarding, wherein the value of the bit mask should instruct the BIER switch to forward the loopback detection message along the transmission path to be detected.
Step 24: after receiving the loopback detection message, each BIER switch selects a BIER forwarding table according to the address filtering table to forward the message until the BIER switch 7 terminates the message according to the destination MAC address of the loopback detection message.
Specifically, after receiving the loopback detection message sent by MEP1, BIER switch 2 searches an address filtering table based on destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message, and selects BIER forwarding according to the address filtering table, so BIER switch 2 performs BIER forwarding on the message based on a BIER label and a bit mask carried by the message, and sends the message to its next-hop BIER switch 4.
Since BIER switch 4 is configured with MIP, after receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by BIER switch 2, BIER switch 4 compares destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message with the address of MIP1 configured on BIER switch 4, and as a result of the comparison, the destination MAC address of the message is not consistent with the address of MIP1, BIER switch 4 continues to forward the loopback detection message, i.e., looks up an address filtering table based on destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-71 of the message, selects BIER forwarding according to the address filtering table, and accordingly BIER switch 4 forwards the message BIER based on the BIER label and bit mask carried by the message to the next hop BIER switch 7.
Since the BIER switch 7 is configured with MIP, after receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by the BIER switch 4, the BIER switch 7 compares the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message with the address of MIP1 configured on the BIER switch 7, and as a result of the comparison, the destination MAC address of the message is consistent with the address of MIP1, so that the BIER switch 7 does not forward the loopback detection message any more, and the loopback detection message is terminated by MIP1 and further processed.
EXAMPLE III
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of an implementation of loop-back detection in a BIER two-tier network according to a third embodiment of the present invention, where as shown in fig. 5, the BIER two-tier network includes 16 BIER switches, and the 16 BIER switches are BIER switch 1, BIER switch 2, BIER switch 3, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 5, BIER switch 6, BIER switch 7, BIER switch 8, BIER switch 9, BIER switch 10, BIER switch 11, BIER switch 12, BIER switch 13, BIER switch 14, BIER switch 15, and BIER switch 16; the 16 BIER switches are switches supporting BIER forwarding and MAC forwarding, and a transmission path from BIER switch 1 to BIER switch 15 after passing through BIER switch 2, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 7 and BIER switch 11 and based on BIER forwarding is a transmission path to be detected.
A network operator configures two MEPs on a transmission path to be detected, wherein MEP1 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 1, and MEP2 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 15; in addition, the network operator configures MIP1 on port 1 of BIER switch 7 for detecting the MAC forwarding table.
In one implementation, the MAC forwarding based loopback detection from MEP1 to MIP1 mainly comprises the following steps:
step 31: after the network operator configures MIP1 for detecting the MAC forwarding table on port 1 of BIER switch 7, BIER switch 7 advertises the address of MIP1 and an indication of MIP1 for detecting the MAC forwarding table to all other network nodes.
Illustratively, the address of MIP1 IS the MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of port 1 of BIER switch 7, BIER switch 7 may advertise the address of MIP1 and the indication that MIP1 IS used to detect the MAC forwarding table to other BIER switches in the BIER two-layer network via the OSPF protocol, or IS-IS protocol, or other advertising protocol, where the address of MIP1 occupies six bytes and the indication that MIP1 IS used to detect the MAC forwarding table occupies one bit.
Step 32: after receiving the MIP1 address advertised by the BIER switch 7 and the indication that the MIP1 is used for detecting the MAC forwarding table, other BIER switches except the BIER switch 7 in the BIER two-layer network add the MIP1 address to the address filtering table, so that the MIP1 address corresponds to the MAC forwarding table.
Step 33: after a network operator starts a loopback detection function from MEP1 to MIP1, MEP1 sends a loopback detection message with a destination MAC address of MIP1 address 00-11-22-00-00-71.
Step 34: after receiving the loopback detection message, each BIER switch selects an MAC forwarding table according to the address filtering table to forward the message until the BIER switch 7 terminates the message according to the target MAC address of the loopback detection message.
Specifically, after receiving the loopback detection message sent by MEP1, BIER switch 2 searches the address filtering table based on the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message, and selects MAC forwarding according to the address filtering table, so that BIER switch 2 performs MAC forwarding on the message based on the destination MAC address of the message, and sends the message to its next hop BIER switch 4.
After receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by the BIER switch 2, the BIER switch 4 searches an address filtering table based on the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message, and selects MAC forwarding according to the address filtering table, so that the BIER switch 4 performs MAC forwarding on the message based on the destination MAC address of the message and sends the message to the BIER switch 7 of the next hop.
Since the BIER switch 7 is configured with MIP, after receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by the BIER switch 4, the BIER switch 7 compares the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message with the address of MIP1 configured on the BIER switch 7, and as a result of the comparison, the destination MAC address of the message is consistent with the address of MIP1, so that the BIER switch 7 does not forward the loopback detection message any more, and the loopback detection message is terminated by MIP1 and further processed.
Example four
Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of an implementation of loop-back detection in a BIER two-tier network according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention, where as shown in fig. 6, the BIER two-tier network includes 16 BIER switches, and the 16 BIER switches are BIER switch 1, BIER switch 2, BIER switch 3, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 5, BIER switch 6, BIER switch 7, BIER switch 8, BIER switch 9, BIER switch 10, BIER switch 11, BIER switch 12, BIER switch 13, BIER switch 14, BIER switch 15, and BIER switch 16; the 16 BIER switches are switches supporting BIER forwarding and MAC forwarding, and a transmission path from BIER switch 1 to BIER switch 15 after passing through BIER switch 2, BIER switch 4, BIER switch 7 and BIER switch 11 and based on BIER forwarding is a transmission path to be detected.
A network operator configures two MEPs on a transmission path to be detected, wherein MEP1 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 1, and MEP2 is configured on port 1 of BIER switch 15; in addition, the network operator configures MIP1 for detecting MAC forwarding tables on port 1 of BIER switch 4, and configures MIP2 for detecting MAC forwarding tables on port 1 of BIER switch 7.
In one implementation, the MAC forwarding based loopback detection from MEP1 to MIP2 mainly comprises the following steps:
step 41: after the network operator configures MIP2 for detecting the MAC forwarding table on port 1 of BIER switch 7, BIER switch 7 advertises the address of MIP2 and an indication that MIP2 is used for detecting the MAC forwarding table to all other network nodes of the BIER two-layer network; likewise, BIER switch 4 will also advertise to all other network nodes of the BIER two-layer network the address of MIP1 and an indication that MIP1 is used to detect the MAC forwarding table.
Here, the address of MIP2 IS the MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of port 1 of BIER switch 7, BIER switch 7 may notify other BIER switches in the network of the address of MIP2 and the indication of MIP2 for detecting the MAC forwarding table through the OSPF protocol, or IS-IS protocol, or other notification protocols, where the address of MIP2 occupies six bytes and the indication of MIP2 for detecting the BIER forwarding table occupies one bit. BIER switch 4 also advertises the address of MIP1 and the indication of MIP1 to detect the MAC forwarding table outward in the same way.
Step 42: after receiving the MIP2 address advertised by the BIER switch 7 and the indication that the MIP2 is used for detecting the MAC forwarding table, other BIER switches except the BIER switch 7 in the BIER two-layer network add the MIP2 address to the address filtering table, so that the MIP2 address corresponds to the MAC forwarding table. Similarly, after receiving the MIP1 address advertised by BIER switch 4 and an indication that MIP1 is used to detect a MAC forwarding table, BIER switches other than BIER switch 4 in the BIER two-layer network add the MIP1 address to the address filtering table so that the MIP1 address corresponds to the MAC forwarding table.
Step 43: after a network operator starts a loopback detection function from MEP1 to MIP2, MEP1 sends a loopback detection message with a destination MAC address of MIP2 address 00-11-22-00-00-71.
Step 44: after receiving the loopback detection message, each BIER switch selects an MAC forwarding table according to the address filtering table to forward the message until the BIER switch 7 terminates the message according to the target MAC address of the loopback detection message.
Specifically, after receiving the loopback detection message sent by MEP1, BIER switch 2 searches the address filtering table based on the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message, and selects MAC forwarding according to the address filtering table, so that BIER switch 2 performs MAC forwarding on the message based on the destination MAC address of the message, and sends the message to its next hop BIER switch 4.
Since BIER switch 4 is configured with MIP, after receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by BIER switch 2, BIER switch 4 compares destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message with the address of MIP1 configured on BIER switch 4, and as a result of the comparison, the destination MAC address of the message is not consistent with the address of MIP1, BIER switch 4 continues to forward the loopback detection message, i.e., looks up the address filtering table based on destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-71 of the message, and selects MAC forwarding according to the address filtering table, so BIER switch 4 performs MAC forwarding on the message based on the destination MAC address of the message, and sends the message to its next hop BIER switch 7.
Since the BIER switch 7 is configured with MIP, after receiving the loopback detection message forwarded by the BIER switch 4, the BIER switch 7 compares the destination MAC address 00-11-22-00-00-71 of the message with the address of MIP1 configured on the BIER switch 7, and as a result of the comparison, the destination MAC address of the message is consistent with the address of MIP1, so that the BIER switch 7 does not forward the loopback detection message any more, and the loopback detection message is terminated by MIP1 and further processed.
