Abstract

The method includes recording IP address of host; route constructs SYN packet in TCP for each pointed host, and sends the SYN packet; if address of pointed host corresponding to SYN packet in link layer is not existed, route sends out ARP request including IP address of pointed host in order to obtain address in link layer; if route receives reply message from ARP successfully, then information of link layer corresponding to pointed IP address of host can be obtained. Information at link layer of specific host can be obtained automatically by using mature technology of TCP/lP protocol stack. Retransmission mechanism of SOCKET is utilized to trigger route to send request message of ARP in multiple times to obtain information in link layer. Thus, multiple times of trigging can be realized without need of increasing complexity for state maintenance.

Description

Automatically obtain the method for given host link layer information
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of data communication technology, be specifically related to a kind of by using the method for obtaining the given host link layer information automatically of TCP/IP technology.
Background technology
IP (Internet Protocol) route technology uses routing table to realize that the routing table list item comprises destination address to the forwarding of IP grouping, next jumping, and outgoing interface is transmitted sign etc.When IP grouping arrives, router adopt destination address the method for long coupling determine next jumping and the outgoing interface transmitted, send out grouping to next redirect then.
As shown in Figure 1, when router sends to the main frame that directly links to each other to the IP grouping by outgoing interface, need obtain the link layer information of this main frame, i.e. the link layer address of destination host.Obtaining of the link layer address of main frame is to realize by ARP (address resolution protocol) agreement.Router broadcast sends the ARP request message that comprises the IP address, and the main frame that receives this message can check whether the IP address that wherein comprises is identical with the IP address of this machine.If identical, it can send comprise link layer address the arp response message to router.Router receives this message, promptly can obtain the link layer address information of main frame.
Generally, router does not initiatively send the ARP request message, but event driven by some.When receiving the IP message of need transmitting as router, it can send the link layer address that ARP asks to obtain the opposite end, or the user uses PING (PING program) program, also can drive when the IP address of PING opposite end and send the ARP request message.
No matter adopt above-mentioned which kind of method that a defective is all arranged, obtaining of link layer information is not instant.In some cases, need in time obtain the router address of opposite end in the time of configuration router, adopt the way of PING can realize above-mentioned purpose, but when the host number of router connection is bigger, or manually can't intervene the time, this method then is impracticable.Transmit datagram and also can drive the ARP request that sends, but when in some tactful routes, needing to realize that forcing to transmit some is grouped into a certain main frame, the destination address and the host address of IP grouping this moment may be also inequality, even send the IP address that the ARP request message also can not comprise destination host like this, therefore also can't obtain the link layer information of main frame.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide the method that a kind of router obtains the given host link layer information automatically.
According to content of the present invention, a kind of router obtains the method for given host link layer information automatically, and described router is connected with main frame, and this method may further comprise the steps:
Record given host IP address;
For each given host, the SYN of a TCP of router configuration bag, and call the SOCKET interface and send this SYN bag;
Do not exist if SYN wraps the link layer address of corresponding given host, router sends the ARP request, wherein comprises the IP address of this given host, is used to obtain link layer address;
If router successfully receives arp reply message, then can get access to assigned ip address of host link corresponding layer information.
Further, this method comprises that also the step router finally is encapsulated in the SYN message in the Frame according to the link layer information of this given host, and the destination address of its link layer is the link layer address of given host.
In addition, comprise that also the step main frame receives this SYN message, because this SYN message is an invalid packet, main frame is not done any processing to it.
Wherein, adopt the IP address of chain table record given host.
Wherein, the SYN of the TCP of described structure bag as following form: 0 15 16 31
Source port number The destination slogan

Embodiment
For making those skilled in the art better understand the present invention, specifically describe the present invention below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
In the application,, can obtain assigned ip address link corresponding layer information timely automatically, adopt following step in order to satisfy the needs of particular arrangement:
1) record need obtain the host IP address of link layer information: for specific configuration, when carrying out configuration order, router can write down the host IP address that need obtain link layer information, among the present invention, use the chained list of the IP address of chain table record destination host as shown in Figure 2 to preserve these IP address informations.
2) need obtain the main frame of link layer information for each, the SYN of a TCP of router configuration (synchronization request message) bag.The form of SYN bag is as shown in table 1 below.Because among the present invention, what mainly need is the arp reply information of main frame, to obtain link layer address, the SYN message is actual only need to comprise the TCP stem, and wherein the SYN sign is changed to 1.0????????????????????????????????????????????15?16???????????????????????????????????????31
Source port number The destination slogan

Confirm number
The TCP head length Keep ?U ?R ?G ?A ?C ?K ?P ?S ?H ?R ?S ?T ?S ?Y ?N ?F ?I ?N Window size
Verification and Urgent pointer
Table 1 TCP stem and SYN message
Wherein, 6 flag bits are arranged in the TCP stem.A plurality of in them can be set to 1 simultaneously.Their effect is as follows: URG urgent pointer (urgent pointer) is effective; The ACK acknowledged sequence number is effective; PSH recipient should give application layer with this message segment as early as possible; RST rebuilds connection; The synchronous sequence number of SYN is used for initiating a connection; FIN makes a start and finishes the transmission task.
3) router calls the SOCKET interface and sends this SYN bag, and the destination address of transmission is the IP address that need obtain the main frame of link layer information.
4) when sending this packet, do not exist,, wherein comprise the IP address of this destination host, be used to obtain link layer address so router can send the ARP request because this SYN wraps the link layer address of corresponding destination host.
5), then can get access to assigned ip address of host link corresponding layer information if router successfully receives arp reply information.
6) router finally is encapsulated in the SYN message in the Frame according to the link layer information of this destination host, and the destination address of its link layer is the link layer address of destination host.Through the Frame after the encapsulation is the form of table 2.
Link layer stem (destination address is the link layer address of destination host, and source address is the link layer address of router outgoing interface) IP stem (destination address is the IP address of destination host, and source address is the IP address of router outgoing interface) SYN message (TCP stem, SYN is masked as 1)
Table 2 comprises the Frame of SYN message
7) after main frame receives the SYN message, because this SYN message is an invalid packet, so main frame can not done any processing to it.
8) if the SYN message sends failure, router also can resend this SYN message every the preceding paragraph time.Among the present invention, a key character that adopts SOCKET to send grouping is to retransmit automatically, it adopts the method for exponential backspace to realize retransmitting, be that each retransmit interval is 2 times of a preceding retransmit interval, as shown in Figure 3, after reaching the maximum retransmit interval, then retransmit interval remains unchanged, and sends message at interval according to maximum retransmit all the time.According to the realization of TCP/IP, this retransmission processes can reach more than 9 minutes.Can in long time, repeatedly trigger router like this and send the link layer information that ARP asks to obtain destination host.
In addition, we also can adopt direct structure IP message to send, or directly send the link layer information that ARP asks to obtain destination host, but the shortcoming of these modes is to send once request, if can not obtain link layer information then can not initiate the ARP request again.If want repeatedly to trigger, each list item in the then corresponding chained list that comprises host IP address must be safeguarded a retransmission timer, resends message again after timer triggers.The complexity of Wei Huing will inevitably increase greatly like this.
Therefore the advantage that adopts SOCKET to send the SYN message comprises two aspects:
1) makes full use of the SOCKET retransmission mechanism, realized the function of retransmission timer, can repeatedly trigger the ARP request message.
2) SOCKET has hidden the details that the bottom technology realizes, only need fill some simple information like this when sending message, and the mechanism of bottom is very easily with respect to using more.
Be understood that, owing to adopted the mature technology of the agreement of TCP/IP, and utilized the SOCKET retransmission mechanism to realize repeatedly triggering router transmission ARP request message and obtained link layer information, the present invention can well realize obtaining the purpose of given host link layer information.
The above only is a possible embodiments of the present invention, and is non-so promptly limit to interest field of the present invention, and the equivalence that all utilizations specification of the present invention and accompanying drawing content are done changes, and all reason is with being contained in the claim scope of the present invention.
