Description

Method, device, equipment and storage medium for backing up and expanding dynamic link of switch
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of switch data transmission technologies, and in particular, to a method, an apparatus, a device, and a storage medium for backup and expansion of a dynamic link of a switch.
Background
The white-box switch is a flexible and efficient network device, and users can deploy different applications and services with personalized characteristics on the same hardware system according to the needs. The device has the characteristics of decoupling software and hardware, can reduce cost and improve use flexibility, and has the biggest bright spot of strong openness.
In the present day with higher and higher requirements for network reliability, the failure backup and expansion of the switch communication link is a very important problem, and especially under the condition that the port bandwidth is higher and the data density is higher at present, the short-time failure of any switch link is likely to cause serious problems for network service. On the other hand, the development of the network also causes more and more traffic on the network, and the requirement on bandwidth is also higher and higher, and if the traffic is suddenly large in a short time, the link congestion and even packet loss are likely to be caused. There are many existing link backup and automatic expansion schemes, for example, a redundant link and port can be physically reserved for the link backup, so that the STP (spanning tree) serial protocol is utilized when the current link fails. For expanding the link bandwidth, the two-layer network has the LACP (link layer aggregation) protocol, and the three-layer network has the ECMP (equivalent routing) protocol for expanding the link bandwidth.
However, the above techniques have various disadvantages resulting in limited use. If the reserved backup port is idle in the case of no failure and cannot be used due to being blocked, the backup port is a physical backup of pure hardware, so that the forwarding capability of the backup port can be considered to be wasted in the case, meanwhile, the reserved backup port can only be used when the failure occurs, the use is not flexible enough, and once the reserved backup port totally fails, the link is not restored.
On the other hand, the existing network expansion protocol also has the problem of inflexibility, the ports to be expanded and the expandable ports are set, the expansion condition can not be changed in real time according to the change of the actual flow, the total expansion bandwidth is fixed, and the emergency situation in the network can not be fully dealt with.
Network tunneling (tunnel) is a technique for transmitting messages of different layers of network protocols or higher layers of network protocols using lower layer network protocols in a network, such as L2TP (two layer network tunneling protocol), PPTP (point-to-point tunneling protocol) for transmitting messages of other protocols of a two layer network, and GRE (generic routing encapsulation) protocol of a three layer network. By using the tunnel technology, the two parties of the message receiving and transmitting do not need to consider the protocol change in the message transmission process, the connection between the two parties can be virtualized into a point-to-point special link, and the transmission reliability and the safety are improved.

As shown in fig. 1, embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a method for backup and expansion of a dynamic link of a switch, which includes the following steps:
s11: monitoring port and link state; the state includes link failure and link augmentation;

s14: forwarding the generated tunnel protocol message;
s15: unpacking the received tunnel protocol message, and reading the original destination address and the forwarding times;
s16: and when the original destination address record exists in the local port, forwarding the message to the port.
After a port backup or dynamic expansion is configured for a certain port of the switch, the state and the bandwidth utilization condition of the port are continuously and automatically circularly inquired; when the port state is abnormal or the bandwidth utilization rate is abnormally increased, the switch software copies the message which cannot be sent or is to be discarded into a part of the buffer area divided in the switch storage space, adds different marks and port machine information according to the abnormal type, encapsulates the message into different tunnel messages according to the attribute of the abnormal port, and forwards the message to the next stage of switch according to different forwarding modes. After the next-stage exchanger receives the message, it inquires whether the destination address of the original message exists on the local exchanger, and if so, it forwards the original message.
By copying the message, encapsulating the tunnel message, forwarding according to a certain network rule, and receiving the next-stage switch with the message with the corresponding mark, the next-stage switch replaces the fault or the switch port with the full bandwidth to perform corresponding forwarding, thereby ensuring the message delivery.
As shown in fig. 2, embodiment 2 of the present invention provides a method for backup and expansion of a dynamic link of a switch, which includes the following steps:
s21: monitoring port and link state; step S22 is executed when the link fails, and step S23 is executed when the link expansion is required;
if the port and the link state are found to be changed without setting, determining that the link is faulty; when the bandwidth is full and packet loss occurs, it is determined that link expansion is required.
In the step, when the monitoring of the port is normal, continuing the monitoring process;
s22: copying the message which needs to be forwarded from the fault port to a buffer area, and adding a port fault mark in the message; step 24 is performed; the buffer area is a part of buffer area divided on a storage medium on the switch;
s23: copying the discarded message to a buffer area, and adding a port expansion mark in the message;
when the bandwidth is full and packet loss occurs, the exchanger copies the data message to be discarded into a buffer zone;
s24: judging the attribute of the port; if the port has the attribute of two layers of ports, executing the step S25, and if the port has the attribute of three layers of ports, executing the step S27;
s25: encapsulating the copied message into a two-layer tunnel protocol message, and simultaneously adding a corresponding state mark and a forwarding frequency field into the message; forwarding the field value by 1 each time; when the link fails, a port failure mark is added in the message; when the link expansion is needed, adding a port expansion mark in the message;
s26: sending out a two-layer tunnel protocol message from a trunk port under the same virtual local area network; step 29 is performed;
in this step, it should be noted that, when the link fails and the attribute is a two-layer port, the two-layer tunnel protocol message is sent out from the trunk port under the same virtual local area network as the failed port; when the link needs to be expanded and the attribute is a two-layer port, sending out a two-layer tunnel protocol message from a trunk port which is under the same virtual local area network with the port;
s27: packaging the copied message into a three-layer tunnel protocol message, and adding a corresponding state mark; when the link fails, a port failure mark is added in the message; when the link expansion is needed, adding a port expansion mark in the message;
s28: sending out three layers of tunnel protocol messages from ports with the same destination route; step 29 is performed;
after a port backup or dynamic expansion is configured for a certain port of the switch, the state and the bandwidth utilization condition of the port are continuously and automatically circularly inquired; when the port state is abnormal or the bandwidth utilization rate is abnormally increased, the switch software copies the message which cannot be sent or is to be discarded into a part of the buffer area divided in the switch storage space, adds different marks and port machine information according to the abnormal type, encapsulates the message into different tunnel messages according to the attribute of the abnormal port, and forwards the message to the next stage of switch according to different forwarding modes.
S29: unpacking the received tunnel protocol message, and reading the original destination address and the forwarding times;
s30: searching whether the original destination address record exists in the local port, if not, executing step S31; if yes, go to step 33; inquiring whether the target address of the original message has a record on a local port, if so, forwarding the message to the port, if not, continuing repackaging the tunnel and adding a fault mark, and forwarding until the port with the address is found, or discarding the message because of excessive forwarding times.
S31: judging whether the forwarding times exceeds the set times; if yes, go to step S32, if no, go to step S24;
s32: discarding the message;
s33: and forwarding the message to the local port.
After the next-stage switch receives the message, unpacking the tunnel message and obtaining the forwarding times of the message, discarding the message exceeding the forwarding times, if not exceeding, inquiring whether the destination address of the original message exists on the local machine, forwarding the original message, otherwise, re-sealing the corresponding tunnel protocol message, and forwarding the message to the next-stage switch until the forwarding times exceed the limit and are discarded or forwarded by the switch with the original address.
In this embodiment, the method further includes: if the fault is relieved, the forwarding of the message is stopped, and the original state of the switch is automatically restored.
Besides the characteristics of various tunnel messages, the message of the tunnel protocol is added with fault marks and related information fields, including fault port numbers, type machine models and the like, and is used for transmitting fault information to a switch receiving the message, and meanwhile, the message is provided with a forwarding times field, and the value of the forwarding times field is increased by one each time. The three-layer tunnel protocol message has a timeout field, so that a forwarding frequency field is not added in the message.
The ports reserved due to backup or expansion are not required to be fixedly designated, and when port faults occur or bandwidth expansion is required, the backup or expansion can be automatically carried out, so that the utilization efficiency of the ports is improved; if the fault is relieved or the bandwidth occupation is reduced, the occupied ports or bandwidth are released accordingly, and the forwarding of other messages is not affected.
In particular, most of the failure causes of a link are due to medium problems of the link, such as failure of optical transceivers at both ends of the link or cable interruption. After the switch is started, if the dynamic backup is set for a certain port, the port state is circularly inquired.
If the port/link state is found to change without administrator settings. Or directly disconnect, and packet loss occurs. The data message which needs to be forwarded from the fault port is immediately copied to a part of buffer areas which are partitioned on a storage medium on the switch, and then the data message is partitioned according to the type of the fault port:
if the port is a two-layer port, the copied message is packaged into a two-layer tunnel protocol message, meanwhile, a fault mark of the original port is added in the message, and then the message is sent out from a trunk port (representing that the next stage is usually another switch) under the same Vlan (virtual local area network) with the fault message, and the state of the port is required to be normal. The next-stage exchanger inquires the fault mark after receiving the message, unpacks the message after confirming the data packet which is backed up, inquires whether the destination address of the original message has a record on the local port, if yes, forwards the message to the port, if not, continues to repackage the tunnel to the port of the same Vlan and adds the fault mark for forwarding until the port which exists at the address is found, or the forwarding times are too many to be discarded.
If the port is three-layer connection, the basic process is similar to that of the two-layer port, but three-layer tunnel protocol messages are encapsulated and corresponding fault marks are added (the three-layer messages have TTL (time-out) fields, so that forwarding times fields can not be added in the messages), and the messages can be forwarded to the port which can reach the destination IP (network address) of the fault port according to a routing forwarding table in the switch. After the next level switch or router receives the message, the fault flag is also read, and the data packet is decompressed Bao Jiexi and sent to the next destination.
When the single-link router is full of bandwidth and packet loss occurs, the invention can also dynamically expand the link, and the method is as follows: when the bandwidth is full and packet loss occurs, the switch copies the data message to be discarded into a buffer zone, then encapsulates the data message into different tunnel protocol messages according to the property of the port (two-layer port or three-layer port), and adds the part of the related port information, but the added mark does not notice the fault, but prompts to expand. If the message is a two-layer tunnel protocol message, the message is forwarded through the trunk port of the same Vlan, if the message is a three-layer tunnel protocol message, the message is forwarded through a port with the same destination route, and when the message is forwarded, the port with less bandwidth occupation is preferentially selected. After the next-stage switch or router receives the message, unpacking is carried out, and the tunnel message is directly forwarded or re-sealed into the next-stage switch or router according to the destination address.
As shown in fig. 3, the embodiment of the invention further provides a device for backing up and expanding a dynamic link of a switch, which comprises a state monitoring module, a message preprocessing module, a message packaging module, a message processing module and a message analyzing module;

The state monitoring module is specifically used for monitoring the states of the ports and the links; if the port and the link state are found to be changed without setting, judging that the link is faulty; when the bandwidth is full and packet loss occurs, the link expansion is judged to be needed.
In some embodiments of the apparatus, the message preprocessing module is specifically configured to copy, when the status monitoring module monitors a link failure, a message that needs to be forwarded from a failed port to the buffer area, and add a port failure flag to the message; when the state monitoring module monitors that the link needs to be expanded, the message to be discarded is copied to the buffer area, and meanwhile, a port expansion mark is added in the message.
