Background
As users pay more and more attention to security, the differential segment technology Based on security Group becomes the technological trend of fine granularity policy control, and the sgt (scalable Group tag) technology for campus networks and the gbp (Group Based policy) technology for data centers are gradually accepted by the market. The traditional Ethernet exchange chip uses the target IP address to look up the table, obtains the index pointing to the next hop address, and discards or forwards the index according to the IP mutual access strategy configured and issued by the user in the access control link of the access ACL of the entrance. The main factors restricting the large-scale deployment of the security policy are large heat generation, small capacity and high price of tcam (ternary content addressable memory) for realizing the ACL function.
The deployment of the traditional security policy needs clear network planning, service isolation is realized by using service subnets divided by VLAN, VXLAN VNI and the like, and ACL under a three-layer interface of a switch cannot realize isolation of different servers in the same subnet. In cloud computing and virtualization environments, security boundaries are difficult to define, making ACL practical deployments difficult. Even in a conventional network environment, due to the huge number of IP devices, the configuration and maintenance of ACLs are quite complex, and lack of global perspective, it is difficult to implement an intent-based network policy. Meanwhile, the Ethernet switching chip uses TCAM, and lacks the capability of using RAM memory to support a large number of ACL entries like a firewall.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be further explained by describing preferred embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
First, a data forwarding method based on a packet label policy according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 3, where the method is used for forwarding data and the application scenario is wide.
As shown in fig. 1 to 3, a method for forwarding data based on a packet label policy according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

S3: as shown in fig. 1, an address lookup Forwarding Information Base (FIB) is performed on the prefix of the VRF + destination address to obtain the index of the next hop operation (Eg-idx) and the destination packet label (DGT). In this embodiment, the LPM Hash looks up the forwarding information base for the destination address using a conventional L3 Host match.
S4: as shown In fig. 1, the information of the two-layer forwarding domain is collected according to the ingress port (In-intf) and the Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) information of the data packet, and the information of the three-layer VRF to which the two-layer forwarding domain belongs is obtained.
S5: as shown in fig. 1, a forwarding information base is looked up for the source address, and a first source packet label (SGT) is obtained.
S6: as shown in fig. 1, a second source packet tag (SGT) is obtained by looking up the ingress port and the virtual local area network number.
S7: as shown in fig. 1, the final source packet label (SGT) is selected from the source packet labels (third source packet labels) already inserted by the upstream device, the first source packet label, and the second source packet label according to the priority of the data packet. In this embodiment, the priority of the data packet is: the source packet label (third source packet label) > second source packet label > first source packet label that the upstream device has inserted.
S8: as shown in fig. 1, the final source packet label and the final destination packet label are searched for by comparison, and a result of the search comparison is obtained. In this embodiment, the final source packet tag SGT and the destination packet tag DGT are searched by performing a comparison search through a policy matching lookup table.
And comparing and searching the final source grouping label SGT and the destination grouping label DGT, and obtaining a searching and comparing result according to a network deployment strategy. Such as SGT1 accessing DGT1 with the result of Drop dropping; SGT1 accesses DGT2 and results in forwarding out of Port 2; SGT2 accesses DGT1 with a result of forwarding based on the destination address as normal; the SGT2 accesses the DGT2 and as a result forwards according to a predetermined QoS policy.
SGT1 SGT2
DGT1 Drop Exit indexing
DGT2 Port2 Qos policy indexing

In this embodiment, whether the result of the search comparison is discarded or forwarded is determined by the user security policy, to which port the result of the search comparison is forwarded is determined by the user routing forwarding policy, and the result of the search comparison is divided into a security policy result and a routing policy result.

The packet tag may not be limited to an IP address, and may be based on an ingress port, VLAN, virtual machine tag, MAC address, geographic location, device type, etc., making security control more flexible. 2. And simultaneously searching a source IP and a destination IP, and searching the reverse path with the uRPF. 3. And in the IP searching and forwarding stage, security strategies based on SGT and DGT are fused, and the scale is expanded from hundreds of strategies based on TCAM to tens of thousands of strategies. 4. The GBP strategy based on the packet label is convenient for users to understand and deploy, and supports the whole network unified security strategy based on the user intention. 5. The occupation of the traditional ACL TCAM resources is reduced, so that the deployment of network security control in a data center does not depend on subnet isolation any more, and the security isolation in tenants becomes possible. 6. And PBR strategy routing is realized according to SGT and DGT, so that the data packet forwarding is more flexible and is not only forwarded according to a target IP. 7. And the fine QoS service quality guarantee is realized according to the SGT and the DGT, and the GBP strategy search result is used as the basis of characteristics such as priority marking, bandwidth guarantee and speed limit, queue distribution and the like.
