Description

流转发方法、设备及系统
【技术领域】
本申请涉及通信网络领域,特别是涉及流转发方法、设备以及系统。
【背景技术】
在2006年,斯坦福的学生Martin Casado领导了一个关于网络安全与管理的项目,该项目试图通过一个集中式的控制器,让网络管理员可以方便地定义基于网络流的安全控制策略,并将这些安全策略应用到各种网络设备中,从而实现对整个网络通讯的安全控制。受此项目启发,Martin和他的导师Nick McKeown教授发现,如果将设计更一般化,将传统网络设备的数据转发(data plane)和路由控制(control plane)两个功能模块相分离,通过集中式的控制器(Controller)以标准化的接口对各种网络设备进行管理和配置,那么这将为网络资源的设计、管理和使用提供更多的可能性。于是,他们便提出了OpenFlow的概念。基于OpenFlow为网络带来的可编程的特性,KateGreene于2009年评选年度十大前沿技术时进一步提出了软件定义网络(Software Defined Network,SDN)的概念--如果将网络中所有的网络设备视为被管理的资源,那么参考操作系统的原理,可以抽象出一个网络操作系统(Network OS)的概念—这个网络操作系统一方面抽象了底层网络设备的具体细节,同时还为上层应用提供了统一的管理视图和编程接口。这样,基于网络操作系统这个平台,用户可以开发各种应用程序,通过软件来定义逻辑上的网络拓扑,以满足对网络资源的不同需求,而无需关心底层网络的物理拓扑结构。
所以,SDN/OpenFlow架构是一种新型网络架构,与传统网络所采用的查找IP路由相比,SDN/OpenFlow能够实现网络流量的灵活控制,为核心网络及应用的创新提供良好的平台,是今后网络架构发展的方向。然而,传统网络却有着基础设施完善、资源丰富的优势。所以,研究SDN/OpenFlow与传统网络的融合具有重大的意义。
但是,通过上述可知SDN/OpenFlow诞生至今才几年,对SDN/OpenFlow与传统网络融合的SDN过渡网络(SDN Migration Network)研究就更为不足,所以,至今尚未涉及在SDN/OpenFlow与传统网络融合的SDN过渡网络方案中如何既保证普通用户正常的使用传统业务,又对贵宾用户提供高质量、精细化流转发的智能路由业务,即,实现按需调整网络路径以提高服务质量,文中定义需要进行精细化流转发的业务称为智能路由业务,而将不需要进行精细化流转发的业务称为普通业务。例如,某个用户原来以普通用户方式观看视频,现在该用户希望升级为贵宾用户,获得更多的带宽以保证观看视频的流畅性时,该用户提出智能路由业务请求,请求为该用户重新分配一条有质量保证的流转发网络路径,使得该网络路径能够保证用户获得足够的带宽观看视频。

【具体实施方式】
以下描述中,为了说明而不是为了限定,提出了诸如特定系统结构、接口、技术之类的具体细节,以便透彻理解本申请。然而,本领域的技术人员应当清楚,在没有这些具体细节的其它实施方式中也可以实现本申请。在其它情况中,省略对众所周知的装置、电路以及方法的详细说明,以免不必要的细节妨碍本申请的描述。
参阅图1,图1是本申请流转发系统一实施方式的结构示意图。本实施方式的流转发系统用于SDN过渡网络,包括用户端110、多个混合转发设备121拓扑连接所组成的SDN过渡网络120、应用服务器130、策略服务器140以及控制器150。其中,混合转发设备121既能实现传统网络的IP路由转发功能,也能实现SDN/OpenFlow网络的的流转发功能。混合转发设备121的外连接口用于与SDN过渡网络120外的设备连接。混合转发设备121的内连接口用于与SDN过渡网络120内部的其它混合转发设备121连接。位于SDN过渡网络120边界的混合转发设备121为边界节点。
用户端110直接连接到SDN过渡网络120的其中一个边界节点的外连接口,SDN过渡网络120内的多个混合转发设备121通过内连接口拓扑连接,SDN过渡网络120的另一个边界节点通过其外连接口直接连接应用服务器130。应用服务器130连接策略服务器140,策略服务器140连接控制器150,控制器150连接SDN过渡网络120内中的任意一个混合转发设备121。SDN过渡网络SDN过渡网络
参阅图2,图2是采用图1所示的流转发系统实现智能路由业务的一实施方式的示意图。
本实施方式中,将边界节点的外连接口设置为在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项时,边界节点向控制器发送第一消息,第一消息包括特征信息和边界节点的标识信息;将边界节点的内连接口设置为即使在流表中没有查找到特征信息时,不向控制器发送智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息。其中,特征信息至少包括智能路由业务请求报文中的以下一种:源地址、目的地址,源端口、目的端口以及协议号。
在本实施方式中,第一消息封装有智能路由业务请求报文和边界节点的标识信息,而在智能路由业务请求报文中包含特征信息。而在另一种可能的实施方式中,第一消息可同时封装有智能路由业务请求报文、智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息和边界节点的标识信息。
第一消息还可以包括接收智能路由业务请求报文的接口的接口属性信息,其中,接口属性信息用于识别边界节点为智能路由业务请求报文在SDN过渡网络的入边界节点或出边界节点。具体地,从外连接口接收智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是上行的边界节点为第一边界节点,从外连接口发送智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是下行的边界节点为第二边界节点。
在其它的实施方式中,控制器可根据接收到消息的先后顺序确定第一边界节点为入边界节点和第二边界节点为出边界节点。
如果用户端110与应用服务器130对某个数据流进行精细化智能路由流转发传输时,第一边界节点和第二边界节点的流表中会存储有该数据流的特征信息,故第一边界节点和第二边界节点不会将智能路由业务报文向控制器150发送。只有新发起某个数据流(包括智能路由业务流和普通业务流)时,第一边界节点和第二边界节点中不会存储有新发起数据流的特征信息,第一边界节点和第二边界节点才将该数据流的业务请求报文向控制器150发送。
在平时,用户端110进行普通业务时所产生的业务报文通过与用户端110直接连接的边界节点的外连接口发送到SDN过渡网络120。在SDN过渡网络120中,业务报文按照传统网络的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点再通过外连接口发送到应用服务器130中。
当用户端110需要进行智能路由业务时,如图中点划线所构成的虚线所示,用户端110向应用服务器130发送智能路由业务请求,并产生智能路由业务请求报文,其中,智能路由业务请求报文用于请求业务服务器为用户侧设备提供智能路由业务,智能路由业务请求报文包括特征信息以及建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件,例如:用户端110所要求保证的带宽等等。
用户端110所产生的智能路由业务请求报文通过外连接口发送到与用户端110直接连接的边界节点。与用户端110直接连接的边界节点即为第一边界节点。由于此时第一边界节点的流表中尚未记载有该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息,所以,根据初始配置“如果边界节点在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项,则边界节点向控制器发送第一消息。”第一边界节点知道这是一个新提出智能路由业务请求的数据流,第一边界节点将该智能路由业务请求报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括智能路由业务请求报文以及与第一边界节点的标识信息,而且,智能路由业务请求报文中包括智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息。
控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及第一边界节点的标识信息。然后,控制器150将智能路由业务请求报文封装进第二消息返回给第一边界节点。
由于此时尚未得到精细化的智能路由业务流转发路径,所以,智能路由业务请求报文按照传统的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点即为第二边界节点。
此时第二边界节点的流表中尚未记载有该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息,所以,根据初始配置“如果边界节点在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项,则边界节点向控制器发送第一消息。”第二边界节点知道这是一个新提出智能路由业务请求的数据流,第二边界节点将该智能路由业务请求报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括智能路由业务请求报文以及与第二边界节点的标识信息,而且,智能路由业务请求报文中包括智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息。
控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及第二边界节点的标识信息。然后,控制器150将智能路由业务请求报文封装进第二消息返回给第二边界节点。
第二边界节点接收到第二消息后,将智能路由业务请求报文通过外连接口发送给应用服务器130。
应用服务器130接收到智能路由业务请求报文后,知道用户端110提出了智能路由业务请求,并从智能路由业务请求报文中获得建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件。所以,应用服务器130将用户端110建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件发送给策略服务器140。策略服务器140根据建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件生成策略控制因子,并将智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及策略控制因子封装到控制策略中,然后将控制策略发送给控制器150。控制器150接收到控制策略后,读出智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及策略控制因子,并根据智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息在本地查找到与该特征信息关联的第一边界节点的标识信息以及第二边界节点的标识信息。控制器150之前已经通过IGP协议侦听等方式接收了SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图。控制器150根据第一边界节点的接口信息、第二边界节点的接口信息、策略控制因子以及SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图计算出符合用户端110要求的智能路由业务流转发路径,为智能路由业务流转发路径上的每个节点生成对应的第一流表项,并将第一流表项分别向每个节点发送。
在生成智能路由业务流转发路径后,如图中划线所构成的虚线所示,用户端110所发送的后续的业务报文在进入SDN过渡网络120后,按照智能路由业务流转发路径进行转发,最后到达应用服务器130,从而完成数据的传输。
可以理解的是,这种实施方式下,用户端110从提出智能路由业务请求到控制器150确定智能路由业务流转发路径的时间较短,但是,由于第一边界节点和第二边界节点设置为流表中没有某个数据流的特征信息时,混合转发设备会将通过外连接口接收到的智能路由业务请求报文向控制器150发送,然后再将智能路由业务请求报文返回给第一边界节点和第二边界节点,以继续向服务端130发送。如果控制器150出现问题,控制器150不能将智能路由业务请求报文返回给第一边界节点和第二边界节点,第一边界节点和第二边界节点不能够继续将智能路由业务请求报文向应用服务器130发送,于是智能路由业务请求报文无法到达应用服务器130。此时,不仅新发起的智能路由业务会因为特征信息没有记载在流表中而受到影响,新发起的普通业务也同样因为特征信息没有记载在流表中而受到影响。
参阅图3,图3是采用图1所示的流转发系统实现智能路由业务的另一实施方式的示意图。
本实施方式中,将边界节点的外连接口设置为在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项时,边界节点向控制器发送第一消息,第一消息包括特征信息和边界节点的标识信息;将边界节点的内连接口设置为即使在流表中没有查找到特征信息时,不向控制器发送智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息。其中,特征信息至少包括智能路由业务请求报文中的以下一种:源地址、目的地址,源端口、目的端口以及协议号。
在本实施方式中,第一消息封装有智能路由业务请求报文的镜像报文和边界节点的标识信息,而,智能路由业务请求报文中包含特征信息,所以,镜像报文也包含特征信息。而在另一种可能的实施方式中,第一消息可同时封装有镜像报文、特征信息和边界节点的标识信息。
第一消息还可以包括接收智能路由业务报文的接口的接口属性信息,其中,接口属性信息用于识别边界节点为智能路由业务报文在SDN过渡网络的入边界节点或出边界节点。具体地,从外连接口接收智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是上行的边界节点为第一边界节点,从外连接口发送智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是下行的边界节点为第二边界节点。
在其它的实施方式中,控制器可根据接收到消息的先后顺序确定第一边界节点为入边界节点和第二边界节点为出边界节点。
如果用户端110与应用服务器130对某个数据流进行精细化智能路由流转发传输时,第一边界节点和第二边界节点的流表中会存储有该数据流的特征信息,故第一边界节点和第二边界节点不会将镜像报文向控制器150发送。只有新发起某个数据流(包括智能路由业务流和普通业务流)时,第一边界节点和第二边界节点中不会存储有新发起数据流的特征信息,第一边界节点和第二边界节点才将该数据流的镜像报文向控制器150发送。
在平时,用户端110进行普通业务时所产生的业务报文通过与用户端110直接连接的边界节点的外连接口发送到SDN过渡网络120。在SDN过渡网络120中,业务报文按照传统网络的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点再通过外连接口发送到应用服务器130中。
当用户端110需要进行智能路由业务时,如图中点划线所构成的虚线所示,用户端110向应用服务器130发送智能路由业务请求,并产生智能路由业务请求报文,其中,智能路由业务请求报文用于请求业务服务器为用户侧设备提供智能路由业务,智能路由业务请求报文包括特征信息以及建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件,例如:用户端110所要求保证的带宽等等。
用户端110所产生的智能路由业务请求报文通过外连接口发送到与用户端110直接连接的边界节点。与用户端110直接连接的边界节点即为第一边界节点。由于此时第一边界节点的流表中尚未记载有该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息,所以,根据初始配置“如果边界节点在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项,则边界节点向控制器发送第一消息。”第一边界节点知道这是一个新提出智能路由业务请求的数据流,第一边界节点将该智能路由业务请求报文进行镜像以获得镜像报文,即,智能路由业务请求报文的镜像报文为所述智能路由业务请求报文的复制报文,然后将镜像报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括镜像报文以及与第一边界节点的标识信息,而且,智能路由业务请求报文中包括智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息,所以,镜像报文也包括特征信息。控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出特征信息以及第一边界节点的标识信息。而原来的智能路由业务请求报文(被镜像的智能路由业务请求报文)则不会被封装到第一消息中向控制器150发送,而是继续向应用服务器130发送。由于此时尚未得到精细化的智能路由业务流转发路径,所以,智能路由业务请求报文按照传统的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点即为第二边界节点。
此时第二边界节点的流表中尚未记载有该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息,所以,根据初始配置“如果边界节点在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项,则边界节点向控制器发送第一消息”第二边界节点知道这是一个新提出智能路由业务请求的数据流,第二边界节点将该智能路由业务请求报文进行镜像以获得镜像报文,即,智能路由业务请求报文的镜像报文为所述智能路由业务请求报文的复制报文,然后将镜像报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括镜像报文以及与第二边界节点的标识信息,而且,智能路由业务请求报文中包括智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息,所以镜像报文也包含特征信息。控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出特征信息以及第二边界节点的标识信息。而原来的智能路由业务请求报文则不会被封装到第一消息中向控制器150发送,而是通过第二边界节点的外连接口继续向应用服务器130发送。应用服务器130接收到智能路由业务请求报文后,知道用户端110提出了智能路由业务请求,并从智能路由业务请求报文中获得建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件。所以,应用服务器130将获得建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件发送给策略服务器140。策略服务器140解析出建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件并生成策略控制因子,并将智能路由业务流的特征信息以及策略控制因子封装到控制策略中,然后将控制策略发送给控制器150。控制器150接收到控制策略后,读出建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件以及策略控制因子,并根据智能路由业务流的特征信息在本地查找到与该特征信息关联的第一边界节点的标识信息以及第二边界节点的标识信息。控制器150之前已经通过IGP协议侦听等方式接收了SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图。控制器150根据第一边界节点的标识信息、第二边界节点的标识信息、策略控制因子以及SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图计算出符合用户端110要求的智能路由业务流转发路径,为智能路由业务流转发路径上的每个节点生成对应的第一流表项,并将第一流表项分别向每个节点发送。
在生成智能路由业务流转发路径后,如图中划线所构成的虚线所示,用户端110所发送的后续的智能路由业务报文在进入SDN过渡网络120后,按照智能路由业务流转发路径进行转发,最后到达应用服务器130,从而完成数据的传输。
可以理解的是,这种实施方式克服了上一实施方式如果控制器150出现问题,控制器150不能将智能路由业务请求报文返回给第一边界节点和第二边界节点以继续传输给应用服务器130时,不仅新发起的智能路由业务会受到影响,新发起的普通业务也同样会受到影响的问题。但是,在这种实施方式下,新发起的智能路由业务请求报文和普通业务请求报文都必须镜像一份给控制器150,所以,造成控制器150的负担比较重。
参阅图4,图4是采用图1所示的流转发系统实现智能路由业务的再一实施方式的示意图。
本实施方式中,控制器按需向混合转发设备121下发第一流表项,其中,第一流表项包括需要进行智能路由业务的对象的特征信息及动作,所述动作用于向所述控制器发送消息,使得具有需要进行智能路由业务的对象的特征信息的数据流进入边界节点后,用特征信息为索引查找流表,如果找到匹配流表项,则除了将报文按传统的IP路由方式转发外,还另外镜像一份报文。
在平时,用户端110进行普通业务(非新发起普通业务)时所产生的业务报文通过与用户端110直接连接的边界节点的外连接口发送到SDN过渡网络120。在SDN过渡网络120中,业务报文按照传统的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点再通过外连接口发送到应用服务器130中。
当用户端110需要进行智能路由业务时,如图中点所构成的虚线所示,用户端110向应用服务器130发送智能路由业务请求,并产生智能路由业务请求报文,其中,智能路由业务请求报文用于请求业务服务器为用户侧设备提供智能路由业务,智能路由业务请求报文包括特征信息以及建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件,例如:用户端110所要求保证的带宽等等。
用户端110所产生的智能路由业务请求报文发送到与用户端110直接连接的边界节点。由于此时与用户端110直接连接的边界节点的流表中没有记载该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息,所以,与用户端110直接连接的边界节点将智能路由业务请求报文按传统的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点再通过外连接口发送到应用服务器130中。应用服务器130接收到智能路由业务请求报文后,知道用户端110提出了智能路由业务请求,并从智能路由业务请求报文中获得所述智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件。所以,应用服务器130将建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件发送给策略服务器140。策略服务器140解析出建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件并生成策略控制因子,并将智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及策略控制因子封装到控制策略中,然后将控制策略发送给控制器150。控制器150将所述智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息记载在第一流表中,并分别向所有的混合转发设备121发送第一流表。
此时,用户端110继续向应用服务器130发送智能路由业务报文,如图中点划线所构成的虚线所示,所述智能路由业务报文发送到与用户端110直接连接的边界节点中。由于此时与用户端110直接连接的边界节点已经接收了第一流表,第一流表项中记载了该智能路由业务报文的特征信息,所以,与用户端110直接连接的边界节点将该智能路由业务报文进行镜像以获得镜像报文,再将镜像报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息以及接收所述智能路由业务报文的接口的接口属性信息,而且,镜像报文包括智能路由业务报文的特征信息。接口属性信息用于识别所述边界节点为智能路由业务报文在所述SDN过渡网络的入边界节点或出边界节点。
在另一种实施方式中,第一消息可以同时包括特征信息、镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息和接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息。
控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及边界节点的标识信息;同时,另一方面,将智能路由业务报文按照传统IP路由方式转发,以继续向应用服务器130发送。由于此时尚未得到精细化的智能路由业务流转发路径,所以,智能路由业务报文按照传统的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。
此时,与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点的已经接收了第一流表,第一流表项中记载了该智能路由业务报文的特征信息,所以,与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点将该智能路由业务报文进行镜像以获得镜像报文,并将镜像报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息以及接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息,而且,镜像报文中包括智能路由业务报文的特征信息。同时,另一方面,将原来的智能路由业务报文按照传统IP路由方式转发,以继续通过与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点的外连接口向应用服务器130发送。
在另一种实施方式中,第一消息可以同时包括特征信息、镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息和接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息。控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出智能路由业务报文的特征信息、第二边界节点的标识信息以及接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息。根据接口属性信息确定第一边界节点和第二边界节点。例如:具体地,从外连接口接收智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是上行的边界节点为第一边界节点,从外连接口发送智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是下行的边界节点为第二边界节点。此处,与用户端110直接连接的边界节点为第一边界节点,而与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点为第二边界节点。
在其它的实施方式中,控制器可根据接收到消息的先后顺序确定第一边界节点为入边界节点和第二边界节点为出边界节点。
控制器150根据智能路由业务报文的特征信息在本地查找到与该特征信息关联的第一边界节点的标识信息、第二边界节点的标识信息以及策略控制因子。控制器150之前已经通过IGP协议侦听等方式接收了SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图。控制器150根据第一边界节点的标识信息、第二边界节点的标识信息、策略控制因子以及SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图计算出符合用户端110要求的智能路由业务流转发路径,为智能路由业务流转发路径上的每个节点生成对应的第二流表,并将第二流表分别向每个节点发送。而且,当第二流表被发送到第一边界节点以及第二边界节点后,第一边界节点以及第二边界节点根据第二流表项处理智能路由业务报文,而且,不会再将后续的智能路由业务报文向控制器150发送,以减轻控制器150的负荷。
在生成智能路由业务流转发路径后,如图中划线所构成的虚线所示,用户端110所发送的后续的智能路由业务报文在进入SDN过渡网络120后,按照智能路由业务流转发路径进行转发,最后到达应用服务器130,从而完成数据的传输。
可以理解的是,这种实施方式按照需要只镜像新发起的有智能路由业务的报文,而不会镜像普通业务的报文,克服了上一实施方式新发起的智能路由业务请求报文和普通业务报文都必须镜像一份给控制器150,从而造成控制器150的负担比较重的问题。但是,在这种实施方式下,必须等初始发送的智能路由业务请求报文发送给应用服务器130后,应用服务器130将该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息发送给策略服务器140,再转发给控制器150,控制器150再将该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息记载在第一流表,并下发给各个混合转发设备121后,控制器150才能镜像该智能路由业务报文,进而去计算智能路由业务流转发路径。所以,本实施方式所耗费的时间稍长一些。
参阅图5,图5是采用图1所示的流转发系统实现智能路由业务的又一实施方式的示意图。
本实施方式中,控制器按需向混合转发设备121下发第一流表项,其中,第一流表项包括需要进行智能路由业务的对象的特征信息及动作,所述动作用于向所述控制器发送消息,使得具有需要进行智能路由业务的对象的特征信息的数据流进入边界节点后,用特征信息为索引查找流表,如果找到匹配流表项,则除了将报文按传统的IP路由方式转发外,还另外镜像一份报文。
在本实施方式中,运营商已经预先确定需要进行智能路由业务的对象,例如:某个用户是贵宾用户,所以该用户的业务流可以获得更多的带宽进行数据传输。运营商把需要进行智能路由业务的数据流的特征信息设置在应用服务器130中,所以,应用服务器130将需要进行智能路由业务的数据流的特征信息以及建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件发送给策略服务器140。策略服务器140解析出需要进行智能路由业务的数据流的特征信息以及根据智能路由业务请求报文解析出建立智能路由业务所需的约束条件并生成策略控制因子,并将智能路由业务的数据流的特征信息以及策略控制因子封装到控制策略中,然后将控制策略发送给控制器150。控制器150根据需要进行智能路由业务的数据流的特征信息生成第一流表,然后通过控制器150分别发送给各个混合转发设备121。
用户端110向应用服务器130发送智能路由业务报文,如图中点划线所构成的虚线所示,所述智能路由业务报文发送到与用户端110直接连接的边界节点中。由于此时与用户端110直接连接的边界节点已经接收了第一流表,第一流表中记载了该智能路由业务报文的特征信息,所以,与用户端110直接连接的边界节点将该智能路由业务报文进行镜像以获得镜像报文,
再将镜像报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息以及接收所述智能路由业务报文的接口的接口属性信息,而且,镜像报文包括智能路由业务报文的特征信息。接口属性信息用于识别所述边界节点为智能路由业务报文在所述SDN过渡网络的入边界节点或出边界节点。
在另一种实施方式中,第一消息可以同时包括特征信息、镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息和接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息。
控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息以及边界节点的标识信息;同时,另一方面,将智能路由业务报文按照传统IP路由方式转发,以继续向应用服务器130发送。由于此时尚未得到精细化的智能路由业务流转发路径,所以,智能路由业务报文按照传统的查找IP路由表的转发方式,并经过多个混合转发设备121的内连接口转发,发送到与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点中。
此时,与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点的已经接收了第一流表,第一流表项中记载了该智能路由业务报文的特征信息,所以,与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点将该智能路由业务报文进行镜像以获得镜像报文,并将镜像报文封装进第一消息发送给控制器150。其中,第一消息中包括镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息以及接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息,而且,镜像报文中包括智能路由业务报文的特征信息。同时,另一方面,将原来的智能路由业务报文按照传统IP路由方式转发,以继续通过与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点的外连接口向应用服务器130发送。
在另一种实施方式中,第一消息可以同时包括特征信息、镜像报文、边界节点的标识信息和接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息。控制器150接收到第一消息后,从第一消息中读出智能路由业务报文的特征信息、第二边界节点的标识信息以及接收业务报文的接口的接口属性信息。根据接口属性信息确定第一边界节点和第二边界节点。例如:具体地,从外连接口接收智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是上行的边界节点为第一边界节点,从外连接口发送智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是下行的边界节点为第二边界节点。此处,与用户端110直接连接的边界节点为第一边界节点,而与应用服务器130直接连接的边界节点为第二边界节点。
在其它的实施方式中,控制器根据接收到消息的先后顺序确定第一边界节点为入边界节点和第二边界节点为出边界节点。
控制器150根据智能路由业务报文的特征信息在本地查找到与该特征信息关联的第一边界节点的标识信息、第二边界节点的标识信息以及策略控制因子。控制器150之前已经通过IGP协议侦听等方式接收了SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图。控制器150根据第一边界节点的标识信息、第二边界节点的标识信息、策略控制因子以及SDN过渡网络120中的混合转发设备121的拓扑连接图计算出符合用户端110要求的智能路由业务流转发路径,为智能路由业务流转发路径上的每个节点生成对应的第二流表,并将第二流表分别向每个节点发送。而且,当第二流表被发送到第一边界节点以及第二边界节点后,第一边界节点以及第二边界节点根据第二流表项处理智能路由业务报文,而且,不会再将后续的智能路由业务报文向控制器150发送,以减轻控制器150的负荷。
在生成智能路由业务流转发路径后,如图中划线所构成的虚线所示,用户端110所发送的后续的智能路由业务报文在进入SDN过渡网络120后,按照智能路由业务流转发路径进行转发,最后到达应用服务器130,从而完成数据的传输。
可以理解的是,这种实施方式同时具有按需镜像报文以及反应时间短的优点,但是,本实施方式仅适用于预先知道需要进行智能路由业务的对象的场景。
参阅图6,图6是本申请流转发方法一实施方式的流程图。本实施方式的流转发方法应用于(SDN migration network) SDN过渡网络,包括:

如果是一个新提出智能路由业务请求的数据流,边界节点中必然没有记载该数据流的特征信息,所以,可以预先对边界节点进行设置,将边界节点的外连接口设置为在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项时,边界节点向控制器发送第一消息,第一消息包括特征信息和边界节点的标识信息;将边界节点的内连接口设置为即使在流表中没有查找到特征信息时,不向控制器发送智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息。其中,特征信息至少包括智能路由业务请求报文中的以下一种:源地址、目的地址,源端口、目的端口以及协议号。
在本实施方式中,第一消息封装有智能路由业务请求报文和边界节点的标识信息,而在智能路由业务请求报文中包含特征信息。在另一种可能的实施方式中,第一消息可同时封装有智能路由业务请求报文、智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息和边界节点的标识信息。在这两种方式下,智能路由业务请求报文都发送给了控制器,为了能够继续进行报文传输,边界节点还必须接收控制器发送的第二消息,所述第二消息包括智能路由业务请求报文,从而实现将智能路由业务请求报文返还给边界节点继续进行报文传输。
而在再一种可能的实施方式中,第一消息封装有智能路由业务请求报文的镜像报文和边界节点的标识信息。智能路由业务请求报文的镜像报文为所述智能路由业务请求报文的复制报文。而,智能路由业务请求报文中包含特征信息,所以,镜像报文也包含特征信息。而在又一种可能的实施方式中,第一消息可同时封装有镜像报文、特征信息和边界节点的标识信息。
第一消息还可以包括接收智能路由业务请求报文的接口的接口属性信息,其中,接口属性信息用于识别边界节点为智能路由业务请求报文在SDN过渡网络的入边界节点或出边界节点。具体地,从外连接口接收智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是上行的边界节点为第一边界节点(入边界节点),从外连接口发送智能路由业务请求报文并且接口属性信息为报文是下行的边界节点为第二边界节点(出边界节点)。
在其它的实施方式中,控制器可根据接收到消息的先后顺序确定第一边界节点为入边界节点和第二边界节点为出边界节点。
如果边界节点在流表中没有查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项,则所述边界节点向控制器发送第一消息。
由于此时还没有生成智能路由业务流转发路径,边界节点根据传统IP路由方式发送智能路由业务请求报文。

由于应用服务器已经获得智能路由业务请求报文,并将该智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息发送给控制器,控制器根据所述特征信息生成第一流表并发送给边界节点。所以,可以预先设置将边界节点的外连接口设置为在流表中查找到智能路由业务请求报文中的特征信息对应的匹配流表项时,边界节点向控制器发送消息,所述消息包括特征信息和边界节点的标识信息;将边界节点的内连接口设置为即使在流表中查找到特征信息时,不向控制器发送智能路由业务请求报文的特征信息。其中,特征信息至少包括智能路由业务请求报文中的以下一种:源地址、目的地址,源端口、目的端口以及协议号。
