Detailed Description
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the description is illustrative only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. In the following detailed description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the disclosure. It may be evident, however, that one or more embodiments may be practiced without these specific details. Moreover, in the following description, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted so as to not unnecessarily obscure the concepts of the present disclosure.
The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the disclosure. The terms "comprises," "comprising," and the like, as used herein, specify the presence of stated features, steps, operations, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, or components.
All terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art unless otherwise defined. It is noted that the terms used herein should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with the context of this specification and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense.
Where a convention analogous to "at least one of A, B and C, etc." is used, in general such a construction is intended in the sense one having skill in the art would understand the convention (e.g., "a system having at least one of A, B and C" would include but not be limited to systems that have a alone, B alone, C alone, a and B together, a and C together, B and C together, and/or A, B, C together, etc.). Where a convention analogous to "A, B or at least one of C, etc." is used, in general such a construction is intended in the sense one having skill in the art would understand the convention (e.g., "a system having at least one of A, B or C" would include but not be limited to systems that have a alone, B alone, C alone, a and B together, a and C together, B and C together, and/or A, B, C together, etc.).
With the rapid development of cloud technology, the internal environment of a data center becomes more and more complex, and the scale and complexity of a production network formed by all devices in the data center also increase, so that when the configuration of the production network is changed, whether a logic error exists in a configuration change instruction cannot be judged. On the other hand, the complex equipment environment puts higher demands on network operation and maintenance personnel, and the network operation and maintenance personnel cannot judge in advance whether the configuration change instruction causes negative influence on the production network or not and whether the configuration change instruction meets the change expectation or not.
Therefore, in the related art, a simulation method is often adopted to verify a network change scheme in advance, for example, a simulation network identical to a production network is constructed, but the method has high equipment cost and maintenance cost; or, simulation software is used for simulating a production network, and a network change scheme is verified through a computer instruction, but because multiple manufacturers and multiple versions of equipment exist in the data center, the method is easily limited by equipment compatibility when applied, and partial equipment does not have mirror images of the equipment in the simulation software, so that the cost for constructing the equipment in the software is greatly increased.
In view of the above, the inventor constructs a 1: 1 network topology by collecting network device configurations and constructing the network topology based on the digital twin technology of the intended network, and then correcting the topology by additional information. After the network topology is built, the network change scheme is verified by using a digital twin technology, so that whether the change scheme is in accordance with expectation or not is verified by the network in advance, and a logic error of the network change scheme is discovered in advance.
Specifically, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a network topology construction method, a network change processing method, a network topology construction apparatus, a network change processing apparatus, an electronic device, a storage medium, and a computer program product. The network topology construction method comprises the following steps: acquiring configuration information of each device in a plurality of devices of a real network, wherein the plurality of devices comprise a first device supporting a preset communication protocol and a second device not supporting the preset communication protocol, the configuration information of the first device comprises a communication link list and an interface information list, and the configuration information of the second device comprises an interface information list; determining a first network connection relationship between a plurality of first devices based on the communication link list; determining a second network connection relationship among the plurality of second devices and between the second devices and the first device based on the interface information list; and adding the first network connection relation and the second network connection relation to the initial network topology to obtain a target network topology.

By adopting the technical means, the problem that part of equipment in the network does not support the preset communication protocol and is ignored when the network topology is built is at least partially solved, so that the integrity of the built network topology is effectively improved.
Fig. 3 schematically illustrates a flow chart of a network topology construction method 300 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in FIG. 3, the method 300 includes operations S301-S308.
In operation S301, configuration information of each of a plurality of devices of a real network is acquired. The plurality of devices include a first device supporting a preset communication protocol and a second device not supporting the preset communication protocol, the configuration information of the first device includes a communication link list and an interface information list, and the configuration information of the second device includes an interface information list.

And under the condition that the target network topology is determined to be constructed, ending the network topology construction process.
In operation S308, a network connection relationship in the target network topology is modified based on the historical traffic information and the simulated traffic information.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the communication link list may include a plurality of communication links established between the first devices based on a preset communication protocol. The preset communication protocol may be, for example, LLDP communication protocol, CDP communication protocol, or the like.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, in a case where a communication link exists between two first devices, it can be considered that a network connection relationship exists between the two first devices. Traversing the communication links of all the first devices may determine a first network connection relationship between the first devices.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the interface address information of each port of the device may be included in the interface information list. According to the interface address information of the port, the subnet mask of the port can be determined, so that the network segment to which the port belongs can be determined. Because all ports belonging to the same network segment have network connection relations, the network connection relations existing in all network segments are integrated by traversing all network segments, and then the second network connection relation among the devices can be determined.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the interface description information may include a name specification of the port, for example, the name specification may be a name of a device that requires adding, to a port name, names of other ports and ports having network connections with the port. Based on the naming convention and the port name, a third network connection relationship between ports of different devices may be determined to supplement the target network topology.

The traffic information may include historical traffic information between ports of a plurality of devices in a real network and simulated traffic information between ports of a plurality of devices in a target network topology. And matching the historical flow information with the simulated flow information to obtain a matching result. For example, in the historical traffic information, if port a receives a packet with a size of 10KB sent by port b in each communication, in the simulation traffic information, if port a and port b are normally connected in the target network topology, port a should also receive a packet with a size of 10KB sent by port b in each simulation communication. And under the condition that the matching result is inconsistent, detecting and modifying the connection relationship between the device A to which the port a belongs and other devices and the connection relationship between the device B to which the port B belongs and other devices so as to modify the network connection relationship in the target network topology.
Fig. 4 schematically illustrates a flow diagram of a network change processing method 400 according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
As shown in FIG. 4, the method 400 includes operations S410-S430.
In operation S410, a network change scenario and a user intention are acquired. The network change scheme comprises a configuration instruction.
In operation S420, a configuration instruction is input into the target network topology, and a network change result is obtained.
In operation S430, the network change result is verified based on the user intention to determine a network change processing policy of the real network.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the target network topology may be a network topology constructed according to method 200 or method 300.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the network change scheme may include a plurality of configuration instructions, and the configuration instructions may include quiescing a designated port of a designated device, modifying an Access Control List (ACL) of the device, and the like.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the network change scheme and the user intention may be in one-to-one correspondence, and the user intention may be a verification step in the network change scheme. For example, if the network change scheme includes a configuration instruction of an access control list of a newly added switch, the user intention includes verifying whether the access control list is valid, that is, whether a specific IP is allowed to pass through a firewall of the switch, which may be expressed as: disp ac name Interactive | inc permit ip source 84.105.38.00.0.0.255.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the network change scheme can be converted into the configuration instruction by simulating a routing protocol and the like.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a mathematical model may be generated using an open source model and a formal verification algorithm, and the configuration instructions may be simulated using the mathematical model. For example, the access control list of device a defines the following behavior: when the port a of the device a is called, if the port a can be matched with the corresponding access control list, the corresponding information is forwarded from the port d of the device a, otherwise, the corresponding information is discarded. The mathematical model can be represented using a transfer function T as: t (condition in, port a) ═ (condition 1, port d) or ═ other, null. The above equation indicates that condition 1 is satisfied, i.e. port a matches the access control list, the corresponding information is forwarded from port d, otherwise, the corresponding information is thrown to null (i.e. meaning that the corresponding information is discarded).
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, after the target network topology is changed, a data packet may be input into the target network topology to determine reachability, isolation, and the like of the target network topology, so as to determine whether a network change result meets a user intention.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the network change handling policy may include: when the verification result is that the network change result is consistent with the user intention, determining that the network change scheme can be executed in the real network; and when the verification result is that the network change result is inconsistent with the user intention, modifying the network change scheme.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the network change scheme is verified in the target network topology, and the network change strategy of the real network is determined according to the verification result, so that the influence of the network change scheme and whether the network change scheme meets the expectation before the network change is carried out on the real network can be judged in advance, and the operation and maintenance cost of the real network and the probability of production accidents caused by errors of the change scheme are effectively reduced.
Fig. 5A-5C schematically illustrate diagrams of target network topologies before and after a change according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
FIG. 5A shows a schematic diagram of a data path in a target network topology including devices P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, and P7 as points in the network topology and an inter-device connection relationship E as an edge in the network topology, according to an embodiment of the present disclosurep1-p2、Ep1-p3、Ep2-p4、Ep2-p5、Ep3-p4、Ep3-p5、Ep4-p6、Ep5-p6And Ep6-p7. The start point of the data path is device P1 and the end point is device P7.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the input of the change configuration instruction can be performed for any one device in the data path, and the reachability verification and isolation verification are performed in other devices in the data path to determine whether the network change scheme meets the user intention.
For example, a configuration instruction to quiesce the device P4 is input in the device P1, and the corresponding user intends to isolate the device P4. After the configuration command is executed, each port of the device P4 is disconnected from the network with other devices, resulting in a changed network topology, as shown in fig. 5B. It can be seen from the combination of fig. 5A and 5B that the connection is switched after the network change is madeSeries Ep2-p4、Ep3-p4And Ep4-p6Is disconnected, the data path is changed, and other devices in the network topology do not have any network connection with the device P4, which meets the user's intention.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, in the case that the network change result meets the user's intention, the network change scheme may be input into the real network to perform network change of the real network.
For another example, for the data path in fig. 5A, if the configuration instruction of the muting device P6 is executed, the corresponding user intends to isolate the device P6 and maintain reachability of the device P1 to device P7 communication. After the configuration instruction is executed, the connection relationship E between the device P6 and other devicesp4-p6、Ep5-p6And Ep6-p7Is disconnected as shown in fig. 5C. However, after the network change, the device P7 has no network connection relationship with other devices in the data path, so the devices P1 to P7 do not have the accessibility of communication, and the network change scheme does not meet the user intention.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, in the case that the network change result does not meet the user's intention, information of a logic error, a static error, and the like in the network change scheme can be fed back to a user, and a modification opinion can be given. For example, for the network change schemes of fig. 5A to 5C, a modification opinion may be given to add a configuration instruction to establish a network connection relationship of the device P7 to the device P4 or the device P5 in the network change scheme.
Fig. 6 schematically shows a block diagram of a network topology constructing apparatus 600 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
