Description

一种网络互通的方法及设备

技术领域
本发明实施例涉及通信技术领域,具体涉及一种网络互通的方法及设备。
背景技术
光纤通道存储网络(英文:Fibre Channel Storage Area Network,缩写:FC-SAN)一般由N端口(英文:N_Port)设备和光纤通道网络(英文:FC Fabric)组成,其中N-Port设备可以是配置有主机总线适配器(英文:Host Bus Adapter,缩写:HBA)的FC设备,所述FC设备可以为主机或者存储设备。N-Port设备在初始化时需要向FC Fabric注册,由FC Fabric为所述N-Port设备分配N端口标识(英文:N_Port_ID),用于在后续通信过程中标识所述N-Port设备。
虚拟N端口-虚拟N端口(英文:Virtual N_Port to Virtual N_Port,缩写:VN2VN_Port)网络是以太网光纤通道(英文:Fibre Channel over Ethernet,缩写:FCoE)网络的一种新型的组网形态。如图1所示,为现有技术中的VN2VN网络示意图。在VN2VN组网中,FCoE设备的端口是一种特殊的N_Port,称之为VN2VN_Port,也可以简称为VN_Port。多个支持VN-Port的FCoE设备(英文:FCoE node,缩写:ENode),例如ENode 1,ENode 2,Enode 3通过无损以太网络(英文:Lossless Ethernet Network)进行互联,而无需FCoE交换机的支持。此外,在VN2VN组网中,各ENode之间直接交互协商VN_Port_ID等网络参数,无需FCoE转发设备(英文:FCoE forwarder,缩写:FCF)的参与。因此,VN2VN组网具有组网简单、成本低、维护简单的缺点。
