The configuration issuing method provided by the present application is explained in detail below.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a configuration issuing method provided in the present application, and is applied to a Software Defined Network (SDN) controller, so as to apply the SDN controller to a VMware cloud-free Network architecture shown in fig. 2, of course, the SDN controller may also be applied to other Network structures, for convenience of description, a subsequent embodiment of the present application is described with reference to the Network architecture shown in fig. 2, and when the SDN controller implements the method, the SDN controller may implement the method according to the following steps:
s101, receiving a data link layer protocol LLDP message transmitted by a host and forwarded by an access switch.
The LLDP packet in this embodiment carries the host information of the host and the access information of the host accessing the access switch.
In this step, as shown in fig. 2, a plurality of access switches may be connected to the SDN controller, and each access switch may allow access of a plurality of hosts, the hosts are respectively arranged on different computing nodes (for convenience of example, only one computing node is shown in fig. 2, and in practical application, multiple computing nodes are included), the computing nodes start a Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) service, when the LLDP service is started, each host can broadcast and send an LLDP message, the LLDP message carries the host information of the host and the access information of the access switch to which the host is accessed, and then, the access switch accessed by the SDN controller is transmitted to the SDN controller, and the SDN controller can analyze the host information of each host and the access information of the access switch accessed by each host from the received LLDP messages.
S102, recording the corresponding relation between the host information and the access information in a mapping relation model.
In this step, in order to implement automatic issuing of configuration subsequently, a corresponding relationship between the host information of each host and the access information of the access switch to which the host is accessed may be recorded as a link relationship, and recorded in a mapping relationship model, as shown in fig. 3.
It should be noted that, in fig. 2, each host in the compute node may send an LLDP message through an upstream port of the compute node.
S103, when detecting that a binding operation event occurs to a virtual machine VM in the host, analyzing host information of the host and a VLAN (virtual local area network) identifier and a port group identifier used by the VM to access a virtual switch from the binding operation event.
In this step, an event detection function is newly added in the SDN controller, and is used to detect whether a binding operation event occurs in the virtual machine VM on the host. Taking the host 1 as an example for description, when it is detected that a binding operation event occurs to a VM on the host 1, the host information of the host 1, and the VLAN id used when the host 1 accesses the vSwitch and the port group id corresponding to the VLAN id may be analyzed from the binding operation event. It should be noted that a software development kit SDK capable of implementing the detection function may be provided in the SDN controller to detect whether a specified operation event (binding, unbinding, migration, etc.) occurs to a virtual machine in the host.
It should be noted that, a forwarding path represented by one VLAN id and one VXLAN id is represented by one port group id, that is, different forwarding paths are represented by different port groups, as shown in table 1:
TABLE 1
Port group identification | Forwarding path |
Port group identification 1 | VLAN identification 1-VXLAN identification 1 |
Port group identification 2 | VLAN identification 2-VXLAN identification 1 |
Port group identification 3 | VLAN identification 1-VXLAN identification 2 |
Port group identification 4 | VLAN identification 2- - -VXLAN identification 2 |
…… | …… |
Optionally, the VM is set on a virtualization management platform, and the port group identifier and the VLAN identifier are issued by an SDN controller to the virtualization management platform in advance.
Specifically, a vCenter is provided on a virtualization management platform in a VMware cloud-free scenario, the VMware cloud-free scenario further includes multiple hosts and multiple virtual machines VMs located on the hosts, the virtual machines VMs are managed by the vCenter, as shown in fig. 2, a long connection is established between an SDN controller and the vCenter, a port group identifier and a VLAN identifier of each forwarding path preconfigured in the SDN controller are issued to the vCenter through the long connection, and then creation, deletion, and migration operations of the virtual machines are implemented based on the vCenter. For example, when the VM performs the above creation operation at the vCenter, the host is determined first, that is, the host information of the host is obtained, then the VM is created on the host, and meanwhile, the VLAN id for sending data to the outside and the port group id to which the VLAN id belongs are configured for the VM, and the VM creation needs to bind the host and the VLAN, so that a binding operation event is triggered, and then the host information, the VLAN id and the port group id can be resolved from the binding operation event.
S104, determining VXLAN identification corresponding to the analyzed VLAN identification and the port group identification according to the corresponding relation among the pre-configured port group identification, the VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification.
In this step, after analyzing the VLAN id and the port group id of the VM based on step S103, the SDN controller may determine, based on a mapping relationship among the port group id, the VLAN id, and the VXLAN id stored in advance, the VXLAN id corresponding to the analyzed VLAN id and port group id with reference to table 1. For example, if the VLAN id parsed from the binding operation event is VLAN id 1 and the port group id is port group id 1, the VXLAN id matched with VLAN id 1 and port group id 1 in table 1 is VXLAN id 1.
And S105, adding the VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification to the position corresponding to the analyzed host information in the mapping relation model.
In this step, after the VXLAN identifier matching the analyzed port group identifier and VLAN identifier is determined, in combination with the host information of the host in which the VM is located analyzed in step S103, the mapping relationship between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier is written in the corresponding position of the host information in the mapping relationship model, as shown in fig. 3, the obtained mapping relationship model shown in fig. 3 substantially records the host information of the host, the access information of the host accessing the access switch, and the forwarding path (VLAN-VXLAN) that should be used after the host accesses the access switch, that is, which access interface is used by any host to access which access switch, and then the access switch forwards data using which VXLAN network. For example, in the mapping relationship model in fig. 3, the host information of the host 1 and the corresponding access information are recorded as the access information of the access switch 1, and the mapping relationship between the corresponding VLAN identifier 1 and the VXLAN identifier 1, based on the mapping relationship model, the host 1 marks the network data with the VLAN identifier 1 through the virtual switch, and then sends the VLAN data to the access switch 1 accessed by the host 1, and the access switch 1 removes the VLAN identifier 1 and then marks the VXLAN identifier 1 to forward the data through the network corresponding to the VXLAN identifier 1.
S106, according to the mapping relation model, sending a configuration instruction to an access switch corresponding to the access information so that the access switch configures the mapping relation between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier.
In this step, after the mapping relationship model shown in fig. 3 is obtained based on step S105, the mapping relationship between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier recorded in the mapping relationship model may be sent to the corresponding access switch based on the access information. In this way, after receiving the mapping relationship, the access switch can perform the mapping relationship configuration based on the access information, which corresponds to recording the mapping relationship between the access information and the VLAN id and VXLAN id in the access switch. Therefore, automatic configuration of the mapping relation between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier is effectively achieved, and the situations that in the prior art, the complexity is improved and configuration is prone to errors caused by manual configuration of the mapping relation are avoided.
Optionally, the access information in this embodiment may be an IP address of the access switch and a port identifier of an ingress port when the host accesses the switch. On this basis, when the host information is confirmed to be the host 1, it can be determined that the access information of the access switch accessed by the host 1 is the IP1 and the port identification 1 based on the LLDP message, i.e. the access information of the access switch 1, after the determined VLAN id and VXLAN id are respectively VLAN id 1 and VXLAN id 1, VLAN id 1 and VXLAN id may be written to host 1 at corresponding locations based on the mapping model, then sending a configuration instruction to the access switch 1 to enable the access switch 1 to configure the mapping relation between the VLAN identifier 1 and the VXLAN identifier 1 on the port identifier 1, it can be understood that the correspondence between the port identifier 1, the VLAN identifier 1 and the VXLAN identifier 1 is recorded, thus, the access switch 1 can delete the VLAN Tag of the VLAN packet with the VLAN identifier 1 received through the port identifier 1, and then add the VXLAN identifier 1 to assemble a VXLAN packet for outward transmission. Therefore, automatic configuration of the mapping relation between the VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification is realized.
Optionally, the binding operation event may include, but is not limited to: creating a VM event, adding a network card event in the VM, binding a network card of the VM to a VLAN event, and the like.
It is noted that the host described above in the present application may be any host in a VMware cloud-free scenario.
Optionally, based on the foregoing embodiment, this embodiment further provides a configuration issuing method, including:
when detecting that a virtual machine VM in the host computer has a unbinding operation event, analyzing host computer information of the host computer and VLAN identification and port group identification used by the host computer to access a virtual switch from the unbinding operation event; determining VXLAN identification corresponding to the analyzed VLAN identification and port group identification according to the corresponding relation among the port group identification, the VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification which are configured in advance; searching the access information of the access switch corresponding to the determined host information, VLAN identification and VXLAN identification from the mapping relation model; and sending a configuration deletion instruction to the access switch corresponding to the determined access information so that the access switch deletes the mapping relation between the determined VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification.
Specifically, the method for detecting the occurrence of the unbinding operation event of the VM by the SDN controller is the same as the method for detecting the occurrence of the binding operation event of the VM, and is not described in detail here. After detecting that a VM in a host has a unbinding operation event, the host information of the host where the VM is located, and the VLAN identifier and the port group identifier previously configured by the VM can be resolved from the unbinding operation event.
It should be noted that, when a VM is deleted from a host, since it is certain that a VM creating operation is performed on the VM before the VM is deleted, the host information of the host where the VM is located, the VLAN identifier of the VM, and the port group identifier of the VM are also known, so that it is necessary to trigger an operation of unbinding a mapping relationship when the VM is deleted, that is, an unbinding operation event occurs, and the host information, the VLAN identifier, and the port group identifier of the VM can be acquired from the unbinding operation event.
On this basis, because the mapping relation model stores the host information of each host, the access information of the access switch, the corresponding relation between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier in advance, after the host information, the VLAN identifier and the port group identifier are analyzed, the VXLAN identifier corresponding to the analyzed VLAN identifier and port group identifier is found from the corresponding relation among the port group identifier, VLAN identifier and VXLAN identifier configured in advance. Then, the access information corresponding to the analyzed host information, the analyzed port group identification, the analyzed VLAN identification and the determined VXLAN identification can be searched from the mapping relation model; then after finding out the access information, sending a configuration deletion instruction to an access switch corresponding to the access information so that the access switch deletes the mapping relation between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier corresponding to the access information; and simultaneously deleting the mapping relation among the host information, the access information, the VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification from the mapping relation model so as to dynamically update the mapping relation model. Therefore, the automatic issuing configuration of the mapping relation between the VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification is realized, the dynamic updating of the mapping model is ensured, and the accuracy of the mapping relation between the issued VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification is further ensured.
Optionally, the access information in this embodiment may be an IP address of the access switch and a port identifier of an ingress port when the host accesses the switch. For example, with reference to the mapping relationship model shown in fig. 3 as an example, if the determined host information is host 2, the VLAN id is VLAN id 2, the port group id is port group id 4, and the VXLAN id is VXLAN id 2, then the access information of the access switch corresponding to the correspondence relationship can be determined from the mapping relationship model as IP address 2 of the access switch 2 and port id 2 of the access port, and then a configuration deletion instruction based on the port id 2 is sent to the access switch 2, so that the access switch 2 deletes the mapping relationship between the VLAN id 2 corresponding to the recorded port id 2 and the VXLAN id 2 after receiving the configuration deletion instruction.
Optionally, the unbinding operation event may be, but is not limited to: and deleting a VM event, deleting a network card event in the VM, unbinding a VLAN event of the network card of the VM and the like.
It is noted that the host described above in the present application may be any host in a VMware cloud-free scenario.
Optionally, based on any one of the above embodiments, this embodiment further provides the following configuration issuing method, including: when a Virtual Machine (VM) is detected to have a migration operation event, analyzing host information of a target host of the VM and a new VLAN identification and a new port group identification used by the target host for accessing a virtual switch from the migration operation event; determining VXLAN identifications corresponding to the analyzed new VLAN identifications and new port group identifications according to the corresponding relation among the port group identifications, the VLAN identifications and the VXLAN identifications which are configured in advance; updating the new VLAN identification and the determined VXLAN identification to a position corresponding to the host information of the target host in the mapping relation model; and determining the access information corresponding to the host information of the target host according to the updated mapping relation model, and sending a configuration switching instruction to the access switch corresponding to the access information so that the access switch deletes the original mapping relation between the VLAN corresponding to the access information and the VXLAN, and configures the mapping relation between the new VLAN identifier and the determined VXLAN identifier.
Specifically, the method for detecting the migration operation event of the VM by the SDN controller is the same as the method for detecting the binding operation event of the VM, and is not described in detail here. After detecting that a migration operation event occurs to a VM in a host, host information of a destination host after the VM is migrated and a new VLAN identifier and a new port group identifier used by a virtual switch to which the destination host is accessed may be resolved from the migration operation event. And then the SDN controller determines the VXLAN identification corresponding to the analyzed new port group identification and the new VLAN identification based on the corresponding relation among the pre-configured port group identification, the VLAN identification and the VXLAN identification. Then, when the computing node where the target host is located starts the LLDP service function, the host information of the target host and the access information of the access switch accessed by the target host are sent to the SDN controller based on the LLDP message broadcast in advance, so that the mapping relationship model stores the correspondence between the target host and the access information of the access switch accessed by the target host in advance. In this way, the access information of the access switch corresponding to the host information of the destination host can be found from the mapping relation model based on the host information of the destination host, then the mapping relation between the new VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier corresponding to the new VLAN identifier is written into the position corresponding to the host information of the destination host, and then a reconfiguration instruction is sent to the access switch corresponding to the access information, so that the access switch reconfigures the corresponding relation between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier corresponding to the access information into the mapping relation between the new VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier.
The access information is also the IP address of the access switch and the port identification of the host accessing the access port of the access switch.
For better understanding of the present embodiment, the mapping relationship model shown in fig. 3 is taken as an example for explanation, a destination host is host information of the host 3, and a new port group identifier and a new VLAN identifier are a port group identifier 2 and a VLAN identifier 2, respectively, then it can be confirmed that a VXLAN identifier corresponding to the port group identifier 2 and the VLAN identifier 2 is a VXLAN identifier 1 based on table 1, and then access information corresponding to the host information of the host 3, that is, an IP address 3 of the access switch 3 and a port identifier 3 of an access port, can be determined based on a mapping relationship between the host information of the host and the access information stored in advance in the mapping relationship model. Then, writing the VLAN identifier 2 and the VXLAN identifier 1 into the corresponding location of the host information of the host 3, that is, modifying the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier at the corresponding location into the VLAN identifier 2 and the VXLAN identifier 1 (for example, originally recording the VLAN identifier 1 and the VXLAN identifier 2, and modifying into the VLAN identifier 2 and the VXLAN identifier 1), and then sending a configuration instruction to the access switch 3, so that the access switch 3 modifies the mapping relationship between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier corresponding to the port identifier 3 into the mapping relationship between the VLAN identifier 2 and the VXLAN identifier 1, that is, deleting the original mapping relationship, and reconfiguring the mapping relationship between the VLAN identifier 2 and the VXLAN identifier 1. Therefore, automatic configuration of the hierarchical binding relationship between the VLAN and the VXLAN is realized, and the problems of high configuration complexity and high possibility of errors caused by manual configuration in the prior art do not exist.
Optionally, the migration operation event may be, but is not limited to: migration VM events and network card switching events in VMs, etc.
Optionally, in any embodiment of the present application, the host information may include a host name host _ name and the like, the VLAN identifier may be a VLAN ID, the VXLAN identifier may be a VXLAN ID, and the port identifier of the access switch may be a port number.
It should be noted that the SDN controller has a network element management function, and is configured to monitor a mapping relationship model, and when the mapping relationship model records access information of an access switch corresponding to any host and a mapping relationship between a VLAN and a VXLAN, the mapping relationship between the VLAN and the VXLAN may be issued to the access switch corresponding to the access information based on the mapping relationship model.
By implementing the configuration issuing method provided by any embodiment of the present application, the mapping relationship between the host information, the access information, the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier is recorded in the mapping relationship model, so that the mapping relationship between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier can be sent to the access switch corresponding to the access information, thereby implementing automatic configuration of the mapping relationship between the VLAN identifier and the VXLAN identifier, and avoiding the problems of high configuration complexity and high error rate caused by manual configuration of the mapping relationship in the prior art. The method is particularly suitable for VMware cloud-free scenes, when more tenants exist and the mapping relation between the VLAN and the VXLAN is correspondingly large, the dynamic issuing of the mapping relation between the VLAN and the VXLAN under the VMware cloud-free scenes is effectively realized by adopting the method provided by the application, so that the problem of high error rate caused by manual configuration is avoided, and meanwhile, the configuration and the accuracy of the network are accelerated.
Based on the same inventive concept, the application also provides a configuration issuing device corresponding to the configuration issuing method. The implementation of the configuration issuing device may refer to the above description of the configuration issuing method, and is not discussed here one by one.
