Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for transmitting a high-level protocol data unit over a low-level protocol, and in particular to a method for transmitting a multi-protocol label exchange protocol data unit based on a universal framing protocol.
- MPLS Multi-protocol Label Switch
- IP Internet Protocol
- LSP Label Switch Path
- LER 103 is used to analyze the IP packet header, perform layer 3 network functions, and determine the corresponding transmission level and LSP. It is connected to the external network 102 and receives external packet traffic from the external network 102. Change the data packet 105; LSR104 is used to establish LSP, perform label switching mechanism and monthly quality of service (QoS), and forward the packet data packet 106 inside the MPLS network 101, which is controlled by the control unit and the switching unit It is located inside the network and is connected to LER 103 and other LSR 104.
- the label switching workflow of MPLS is as follows: Initially, the Label Distribution Protocol (Label
- LDP Long Term Distribution Protocol
- OSPF Open Shortest Path First
- the MPLS technology isolates the relationship between the label distribution mechanism and the data flow, its implementation does not depend on a specific data link layer protocol, so it can support a variety of physical layer and data link layer technologies. At present, links in Frame Relay (Frame Relay, "FR" for short), Asynchronous Transfer Mode (“ATM”) and Point-to-Point Protocol (“PPP”) links are implemented.
- FR Frame Relay
- ATM Asynchronous Transfer Mode
- PPP Point-to-Point Protocol
- GTP General Framing Procedure
- ITU-T International Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication Standardization Sector
- GFP can be used for both fixed-length data packet transmission and variable-length data packet transmission, because GFP inherits the frame-based method used by Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). Header Error Check (HEC for short) frame delimitation mechanism. GFP expands the capability of modem point-to-point transmission, and sends the input data stream in order, which greatly simplifies the synchronization of the data link layer and the demarcation and positioning operation of the data frame. It is not like the delimitation mechanism used by the High-level Data Link Control (“HDLC”) framing protocol, that is, using header flags, escape bytes "7D", "7E", etc.
- HDLC High-level Data Link Control
- GFP does not need to perform specific line coding on the Protocol Data Unit ("PDU” for short), thereby reducing the requirements for the logic circuits that process it.
- GFP can assign quality of service (Customer Service) to the client layer. (Referred to as "QoS”) management functions, thereby reducing management overhead, which is better than ATM.
- QoS quality of service
- This lower implementation complexity makes GFP particularly suitable for high-speed transmission links, such as Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) ”) / Synchronous Optical Network, Point-to-Point Protocol (referred to as "PPP") links, referred to as "SONET”), Optical Transport Network (referred to as " ⁇ ”), can even be applied to optical fibers.
- SDH Synchronous Digital Hierarchy
- PPP Point-to-Point Protocol
- SONET Point-to-Point Protocol
- ⁇ Optical Transport Network
- FIG. 2 (a) shows the relationship between GFP and the upper and lower layers of the network. From the figure, we can see the relationship between GFP and high-level customer data and GFP and low-level transmission channels.
- the GFP is divided into upper and lower layers.
- the upper layer is related to the client PDU, which is called the GFP client definition aspect, and is used to handle the encapsulation management of the customer data.
- the lower layer is not related to the client PDU, and is called the GFP general aspect, which is used for channel transmission and reception. And control.
- GFP's payload overhead can be performed in the same transmission channel in multiple transmission modes.
- One mode corresponding to the frame-mapped GFP (Frame-Mapped GFP, referred to as "GFP-F"), is most suitable for a packet switching environment. At this time, the resource management is handed over to the resource original data client. This is the transport mode used for original IP, PPP, and Ethernet services.
- the second mode corresponding to Transparent GFP (referred to as "GFP-T" for short), is mainly used for circuit emulation type applications that are sensitive to delay, and its purpose is to effectively transmit on the adaptation layer.
- FIG. 2 (b) shows the position of GFP in the network structure.
- the bottom layer of the network uses a high-data-rate fiber-optic network as the physical medium, such as Wave Division Multiplexing (WDM), OTN, etc., and then constructs a SONET or SDH network.
- WDM Wave Division Multiplexing
- SONET / SDH traditional HDLC, ATM, or GFP can be constructed.
- ATM and GFP can also be built on the transmission medium.
- Ethernet Ethernet
- IP Over ATM IP Over ATM
- Ethernet mode or directly carrying SAN services such as IP services, FC, ESCON, FICON, etc.
- the current network architecture uses HDLC, etc.
- the traditional data link layer carries a method of packet switching network (Packet Switching Network, "PSN") services such as MPLS, so the existing data link layer of MPLS generally uses HDLC / PPP, FR, ATM, Ethernet Etc.
- PSN Packet Switching Network
- the existing data link layer of MPLS generally uses HDLC / PPP, FR, ATM, Ethernet Etc.
- HDLC / PPP is generally adopted.
- the above solution has the following problems: Data services are encapsulated and transmitted on optical transport networks using PPP / HDLC, which appears to be more complex, inefficient, and inflexible, and directly affects the performance of MPLS networks built on them.
- the main object of the present invention is to provide a method for transmitting a multi-protocol label switching protocol data unit, so that the transmission efficiency, resource utilization rate, and network performance of MPLS network services are improved.

- A fills the multi-protocol label exchange protocol data unit to be sent into a load information field field of a universal framing procedure data frame;
- B transmits the universal framing procedure data frame to a destination node through a transmission network;
- the multi-protocol label exchange protocol data unit is taken out from the segment.
- the step A further includes the following sub-steps: setting a value of a user load identifier field of the universal framing procedure data frame to a predetermined value indicating that the frame carries a multi-protocol label exchange protocol data unit.
- the predetermined value indicating that this frame carries the multi-protocol label switching protocol data unit is 0x07 in hexadecimal.
- the step C includes the following sub-steps: removing a frame header of the universal framing procedure data frame, and taking out a payload of the universal framing procedure data frame as the multi-protocol label exchange protocol data unit.
- the method further includes the following steps: before filling the multi-protocol label exchange protocol data unit into the field of the load information area, encoding or compressing the multi-protocol label exchange protocol data unit; from the load information area After the field takes out the multiprotocol label exchange protocol data unit, the multiprotocol label exchange protocol data unit is decoded or decompressed.
- the technical solution of the present invention is different from the prior art in that the MPLS protocol data unit is encapsulated in a GFP frame format, and the UPI value of the GFP frame is defined to indicate that the frame carries the MPLS protocol data unit, and the Optical transmission online transmission.
