Description

一种数据帧的发送方法和网络设备
本申请要求于2020年9月27日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202011032653.X、申请名称为“一种数据帧的发送方法和网络设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及光网络技术领域,特别涉及一种数据帧的发送方法和网络设备。
发明背景
自动交换光网络(ASON)是由国际电信联盟(ITU)定义的基于分布控制平面且支持动态交换连接的光网络。ASON利用独立的控制平面,通过各种传送网来实施自动连接管理。ASON支持网络带宽的动态分配和调度连接,可依据客户层信息如:IP数据业务量等的变化,有效地优化网络。与传统光网络相比,对于同样的网络业务需求,ASON可以大大降低建网成本,提高带宽利用率,还可以提供分布式的网络恢复,极大地提高网络的可靠性。
ASON网络目前已基本覆盖城域、核心骨干等波分网络。在ASON网络中,每个ASON节点通过开放最短路径优先(Open Shortest Path First,OSPF)协议获取全网其它节点的信息,包括节点数据和链路数据等,然后通过基于约束的最短路径优先算法(Constrained Shortest Path First,CSPF)计算端到端的业务路径,最后再通过RSVP-TE完成端到端业务路径的建立。网络断纤后可通过通用多协议标签交换(Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching,GMPLS)以及基于流量工程扩展的资源预留协议(Resource Reservation Protocol-Traffic Engineering,RSVP-TE)自动建立端到端恢复路径,为业务提供实时重路由保护恢复能力。
对于城域/核心ASON网络,当需要通过RSVP-TE协议建立业务,首先将RSVP Path消息封装成IP报文,再将IP报文映射到数据帧的开销字节。每个中间节点需要逐个节点解出IP报文,耗时长,且占用开销多,建路速度慢。
发明内容
为了解决业务路由速度慢,占用开销多的问题,本申请实施例提供一种数据帧的发送方法和网络设备。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供一种数据帧的发送方法,所述方法包括:第一节点获取第一路径的路由标签栈信息,第一路径用于传输业务,路由标签栈信息用于指示第一路径上各节点建立业务在第一路径各节点上的通道;第一节点将路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息插入第一数据帧,业务属性信息用于指示第一路径上各节点为业务配置资源;第一节点发送第一数据帧。
本申请提供的方案,通过在灵活的数据帧中携带路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息,可以将业务路由信息快速传至业务路径的各个节点,用于各个节点建立业务的通道并且为业务配置资源,从而缩短路由时间,并且仅通过OSU帧控制信令完成数据帧的发送过程,无需占用 高阶数据帧的过多开销,从而提高网络的传输效率。
结合第一方面,在一种可能的实现方式中,路由标签栈信息包括多个标签,多个标签中的每一个标签与第一路径上各节点传输业务的通道一一对应,对应关系预先配置在第一路径上各节点中。通过将路由标签与各节点上业务的通道一一对应,并将对应关系预先配置在各节点中,可以减少报文内容,提高传输效率,同时各节点在获取路由标签栈信息后,可以根据本节点的标签与业务通道的对应关系完成交叉连接的建立,提高数据帧的发送速度。
结合第一方面,在一种可能的实现方式中,所述路由标签栈信息可以只包含一个全局标签,第一节点或者第一路径上的其他节点获取该全局标签后,根据该全局标签完成业务通道的建立。

结合第一方面,在一种可能的实现方式中,第一数据帧的开销区还包括信令类型Type字段,Type字段用于指示所述第一数据帧为控制帧及具体控制类型。通过在开销区预留信令类型Type字段,可以标识当前第一数据帧为控制帧,用于数据帧的发送过程,具体可以包括建路、1+1保护、重路由等情景,从而与传输业务的数据帧区别开来,方便网络管理。

具体实施方式
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于ASON中,为了方便理解本申请实施例的技术方案,以下对本申请实施例中使用的部分术语和技术作简单介绍。
1、节点
用于表示网络中一个独立的硬件实体,一般为一个传送网设备,如在图1中有四个节点:分别为节点1、节点2、节点3、节点4。
应理解,图1所示的ASON只是一种举例,对本申请的保护范围不构成任何的限定。ASON中包括的节点个数可以为4个节点以上,或者ASON中包括的节点个数还可以为大于或者等于2个。
2、接口
节点上用于发送并接收网络协议消息和流量数据的物理端口,如在图1中有8个接口:分别为接口1、接口2、接口3、接口4、接口5、接口6、接口7和接口8。其中,接口#1和接口#8为节点#1的物理端口、接口#2和接口#3为节点#2的物理端口、接口#4和接口#5为节点#3的物理端口、接口#6和接口#7为节点#4的物理端口。
本申请中,接口也可以称为端口,例如入端口、出端口等。需要说明的是,本申请中的节点上的端口具有三层含义:1)通道,例如入端口1—出端口1表示数据从入端口1进入节点,然后从出端口1发出,表示数据的通道;2)波长,数据从特定端口发出表示该数据以与该端口对应的波长发出;3)与OTN帧的映射关系,灵活的数据帧在发送前需要先以一定的方式映射到光数据单元ODUk的净荷区,数据从特定端口发出表示承载该数据的灵活数据帧以特定的映射关系映射到ODUk帧净荷区的特定位置,然后通过该ODUk帧发出。
3、链路
本申请实施例中,相邻的两个节点之间的连接称为链路。一个链路可以用链路(节点-接口,节点-接口)表示,相邻的两个节点之间是否存在链路可以用于表明网络协议消息和/或流量数据等信息是否能够在该两个相邻的节点之间转发,例如,若相邻的两个节点之间存在链路,则网络协议消息和/或流量数据等信息能够在该两个相邻的节点之间转发;同理,若相邻的两个节点之间不存在链路,则网络协议消息和/或流量数据等信息不能够在该两个相邻的节点之间转发。
例如,链路(节点1-接口1,节点2-接口2)表示网络协议消息和/或流量数据等信息能够从节点1的接口1发出后,在节点2和接口2上被收到。
图1所示的ASON中有8条链路:链路1-2(节点1-接口1->节点2-接口1)、链路1-4(节点1-接口8->节点4-接口7)、链路2-1(节点2-接口2->节点1-接口1)、链路2-3(节点2-接口3->节点3-接口4)、链路3-2(节点3-接口4->节点2-接口3)、链路3-4(节点3-接口5->节点4-接口6)、链路4-3(节点4-接口6->节点3-接口5)、链路4-1(节点4-接口7->节点1-接口8)。
4、业务
用于表示两个节点之间的物理通道连接建立,数据流量能够从源节点发送并在宿节点收到。如在图1中有业务1-3,表示节点1到节点3之间有一条可连接的数据通道。
需要说明的是,在本申请中除特殊说明,通道一般表示物理通道,例如业务通道表示业 务源节点和业务宿节点之间的物理通道,业务在节点上的通道可以表示业务在该节点上从入端口到出端口之间的交叉连接关系,或者可以表示光层的波长通道,本申请对此不进行限定。
ASON网络通过RSVP-TE协议可提供业务的快速端到端建立、查询、删除、属性修改和恢复功能。网管下发业务创建命令到源节点网元,然后源节点网元实现路由计算并通过RSVP-TE信令协议发起业务配置过程,从源节点到下游节点逐点建立交叉连接,从而完成业务的创建。该方式充分利用了各个网元的路由和信令功能,缩短了业务配置时间。如在图1中,业务1-3信令RSVP-TE建路的具体步骤如下:源节点1通过CSPF(Constrained Shortest Path First,基于约束的最短路径优先)计算好业务路径:节点1-节点2-节点3,源节点沿着计算好的路径,携带着端到端的路径信息,指定链路1-2接口向中间节点2发送Path消息(RSVP-TE协议报文的一种),节点2收到信令消息后,解出本节点交叉配置关联信息并建立反向交叉连接,再由中间节点2携带端到端路径消息指定链路2-3接口向宿节点3方向发送Path消息,同理在宿节点3解出对应交叉配置消息并建立本站反向交叉连接;宿节点3经由中间节点2向源节点1方向发送Resv消息(RSVP-TE协议报文的一种),在沿途各节点建立正向交叉连接;同样过程源节点1经由中间节点2向宿节点3方向发送Path消息,沿途打开对业务的告警监视,宿节点3经由中间节点2向源节点1方向发送Resv消息进行确认。整个过程由RSVP-TE信令自动完成业务1-3的端到端配置建立。
在静态网络中,业务的建立是通过网管进行手工单站配置建立、删除、查询和属性修改,无法做到端到端自动化过程。如图1所示,如果通过网管创建业务1-3,首先需要人工规划出业务路径节点1-节点2-节点3,然后逐个节点进行单站交叉配置,待所有节点交叉配置完成后,业务1-3完成端到端建立。整个过程需要人工分别进行单站配置以建立业务,效率很低。
5、业务路径
业务路径可以包括工作路径、恢复路径、保护路径等,用于承载业务的数据传输。业务路径为首节点到末节点之间的路由,首节点和末节点之间可能存在一个或多个节点。其中,业务路径的首节点表示业务数据的发送节点、业务路径的末节点表示业务数据的接收节点。一个业务路径可以用业务(首节点-末节点)表示。
由于业务路径表示首节点到末节点之间的路由,也可以称之为端到端业务路径,其中,“端到端”表示首节点到末节点。
另外,ASON通过RSVP-TE协议可提供业务路径的端到端建立、查询、删除、属性修改和恢复功能。业务路径的端到端建立包括:网管下发业务路径创建命令到首节点,然后首节点实现路由计算并通过RSVP-TE信令协议发起业务路径配置过程,从首节点到下游节点逐点建立交叉连接,从而完成业务路径的端到端建立。
本申请中的业务路径既包括工作路径,也包括保护路径。业务路径的切换(或者倒换)可以表示业务从工作路径切换到保护路径,或者,表示业务从保护路径重新切换回工作路径。
6、灵活光业务单元帧
光传送网络(optical transport network,OTN)由于具备高带宽,大容量,高可靠,低时延等特性,已经成为传送网采用的主流技术。OTN可以应用于骨干、城域核心及汇聚等网络,也进一步向接入网扩展。OTN网络中使用的数据帧结构是OTN帧,OTN帧也可以称为OTN传输帧。OTN帧用于承载各种业务数据,并提供丰富的管理和监控功能。OTN除了能够提供n*1.25Gbps、n*5Gbps等大带宽传送能力外,未来还需要具备低至几兆比特每秒的传送能力。
Liquid OTN是在传统的OTN帧结构基础上引入了面向业务的灵活容器——灵活光业务单元帧(flexible optical service unit,OSUflex),通过灵活的管道带宽定义(如n*2.4Mbit/s,n 表示管道个数),实现高效承载小颗粒信号。OSUflex改变了原有的封装大小,能够直接映射到高阶光数据单元(optical data unit k,ODUk)管道上,其中k代表了不同的速率等级,例如,k=1表示2.5Gbps,k=4表示100Gbps。
在本申请实施例中,OTN帧可以是OSUflex帧,OSUflex帧也可以简称为OSU帧。图2是本申请实施例提供的一种OSU帧的结构示意图。如图2所示,光净荷单元帧(optical payload unit-k,OPUk)或OPUflex被划分为多个净荷块(Payload Block,PB),每个PB包含OSU帧和与之对应的索引号TPN。当多路OSU帧映射到OPUk/Flex帧时,TPN可以作为OSU帧在服务层的唯一通道标识。每个OSU帧包括开销区和净荷区两部分,开销区包括但不限于信令类型、版本标识、校验比特等开销信息,净荷区用于承载业务数据信息。OSU帧的长度一般为固定大小,例如长度为192字节、240字节、128字节或者64字节等。
下面将进一步结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述。其中,在本申请的描述中,除非另有说明,“/”表示或的意思,例如,A/B可以表示A或B;本文中的“和/或”仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。并且,在本申请的描述中,除非另有说明,“多个”是指两个或多于两个。另外,为了便于清楚描述本申请实施例的技术方案,在本申请的实施例中,采用了“第一”、“第二”等字样对功能和作用基本相同的相同项或相似项进行区分。本领域技术人员可以理解“第一”、“第二”等字样并不对数量和执行次序进行限定,并且“第一”、“第二”等字样也并不限定一定不同。
本申请实施例描述的网络架构以及业务场景是为了更加清楚的说明本申请实施例的技术方案,并不构成对于本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限定,本领域普通技术人员可知,随着网络架构的演变和新业务场景的出现,本申请实施例提供的技术方案对于类似的技术问题,同样适用。
随着网络业务的多元化发展,VR游戏、视频业务等场景对网络性能的要求越来越高。针对VR游戏、视频业务等场景,用户通过公网预先获得VR渲染云服务地址,然后启动游戏/视频时按需发起建立管道连接。为了减少等待时间,从而提升用户体验,通常建立管道连接的时间应该越短越好。
图3是一种数据帧的发送方法。业务首节点首先将RSVP Path消息封装为IP报文,然后将IP报文映射到数据通信网络(Data communication network,DCN)。例如,将IP报文映射到光传送网(optical transport network,OTN)数据帧的通用通信信道(general communication channel,GCC)开销字节。每个中间节点均需要逐个节点解出IP报文,并根据IP报文为业务建路或者进行重路由。此过程耗时长,同时由于可用开销太少,因此传输速度较慢,导致业务配置效率低,性能差。
为了提高网络的业务建立和恢复速度,提升用户体验,本申请实施例提供了一种数据帧的发送方法和网络设备,基于OSU帧随路控制信令实现业务的快速建立和/或重路由,从而提升网络性能。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中所述的数据帧的发送方法,既包括业务的工作路径建路过程,也可以包括业务的1+1保护路径的建立过程,还可以包括业务的工作路径出现故障后进行重路由的过程。因此,本申请中的路由表示业务路径的端到端建立。
图4是本申请实施例的一种ASON网络的节点配置示意图。如图4所示,该架构包括智能化网管(Network Cloud Engine,NCE)、节点A、节点B及节点C。其中每个节点均部署业务配置控制单元和随路信令控制单元。
该ASON架构还包括用于路径计算的网络设备。示例性地,该网络设备包括路径计算单元(Path computation element,PCE)控制器,即该ASON中设置有至少一个PCE控制器。或者,该网络设备为具备路径计算功能的节点,例如,该ASON中至少一个节点部署有PCE控制器;还例如,该ASON中至少一个节点部署有路径计算功能模块。
其中,NCE用于业务的自动发放和删除。

应理解,图4只是为了便于理解本申请而提供的一种示意图,对本申请的保护范围不构成任何的限定,上述的各种单元的名称也只是举例,其他能够实现相同功能的单元或模块替代图4中所示的单元。
图5是本申请实施例提供的一种数据帧的发送方法的系统时序图,可以应用于ASON网络中,该网络可以包括如图4所示的多个节点。
本实施例以单条业务通过OSU帧随路控制信令建路为例进行说明。本实施例将具有路径计算功能的节点和PCE控制器统称为网络设备,网络设备可以通过路径计算获得承载业务的工作路径。例如,业务的工作路径包括首节点A、中间节点B以及末节点C,其中首节点A与网络设备之间可以通过通信协议进行信息交互。需要说明的是,网络设备可以是业务的首节点。
图5中数据帧的发送方法至少包括以下步骤中的全部或者部分步骤:
S510:网络设备进行OTN映射关系和路由标签预配置。
具体地,在业务创建之前,网络设备预先配置OSU帧与ODUk管道的映射关系。通过上述预配置,网络设备可以将业务的建路过程简化为交叉连接和资源配置,从而提高业务的配置效率。
此外,网络设备还为不同子架、单板、端口上的OSU帧通道分别分配一个路由标签,该标签用于在站节点内唯一标识传输第一业务的通道,然后将所有的路由标签分别配置到节点内。例如,每个路由标签属性为4个字节,与节点内子架、板位、端口及通道号一一对应。同时,网络设备可以将各节点的路由标签存储在设备内。
S520:节点A向网络设备发送路径计算请求,
节点A为业务的首节点,当节点A接收到业务的创建请求后,请求网络设备计算业务的承载路径。
S530:网络设备计算得到业务的工作路径,并将工作路径转换为路由标签栈信息。
本申请实施例中,网络设备能够获取网络中的业务和拓扑,然后根据全网路由TE和带宽信息确定承载业务的工作路径,之后再将所述工作路径转化为路由标签栈信息。所述路由标签栈信息用于指示所述工作路径上各节点建立传输业务的通道。具体地,所述路由标签栈信息表示标签的排序集合,可以包括一个或者多个标签,多个标签按照一定的顺序进行排列,例如可以按照每个标签的获取顺序进行排列。其中每个标签均与工作路径的节点中传输业务的通道一一对应。
示例地,网络设备确定承载第一业务的路径为第一路径,其中第一路径包括业务所经过的节点和节点内的业务通道信息,例如第一路径为:节点A(子架1-板位1-端口1-通道1)—节点B(子架2-板位2-端口2-通道2)—节点C(子架3-板位3-端口3-通道3)。然后,网络设备将所述第一路径转化为路由标签栈信息,例如,节点A(第一标签)—节点B(第二标签)—节点C(第三标签)。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中的建立表示节点中的业务通道为可用/激活状态,或者更具体地,建立表示节点内传输业务的通道的交叉已建立完成。
S540:网络设备将路由标签栈信息下发给节点A。
示例地,网络设备通过路径计算单元通信协议(Path Computation Element Communication Protocol,PCEP)消息将路由标签栈信息下发给节点A。或者,网络设备通过与PCEP具有相同功能的协议消息将路由标签栈信息下发给节点A。具体地,网络设备通过与节点A之间原有信令中新增的字段(例如,扩展PCEP字段)将路由标签栈信息下发给节点A。
基于网络设备在网络中的身份,分为以下两种方式:
方式一:网络设备为PCE
网络设备网络中设置的PCE控制器,并且该PCE控制器为独立于上述的工作路径的首节点部署的设备。则在方式一中,网络设备将工作路径转换为路由标签栈信息后,需要将该路由标签栈信息下发给业务首节点A。
示例地,上述路由标签栈信息可以是一条消息也可以是多条消息的统称,即路由标签栈信息可以通过一条消息发送给首节点A,也可以通过多条消息发送给首节点A。
方式二:网络设备是业务的首节点。
上述网络设备如果是业务的首节点A,那么节点A可以自行计算获得工作路径的路由信息,并将工作路径的路由信息转换为路由标签栈信息。与上述方式一不同的是方式二中网络设备无需向首节点发送路由标签栈信息,即无需执行S540。
S550:节点A获取业务路径的路由标签栈信息,并将路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息插入第一数据帧的净荷区。
节点A从协议消息中获取路由标签栈信息,并将该路由标签栈信息插入第一数据帧的净荷区字段中。此外,节点A还可以将业务属性信息插入第一数据帧的净荷区字段中,用于指示业务路径上的节点为业务配置物理资源。所述业务属性信息包括以下至少一项信息:业务标识ID、带宽、时延、源节点标识ID、宿节点标识ID、业务路径属性。其中,业务路径属性表示第一数据帧帧的控制类型,例如,当前通过第一数据帧建立的路径为业务工作路径,或者是业务保护路径,或者是重路由路径。
例如,第一数据帧具体可以是灵活光业务单元OSU帧,长度为192字节。
作为一个示例,OSU帧的信令格式可以参考图6。如图6所示,该OSU帧的长度为192字节,其中开销区包含7个字节,净荷区包含185个字节。在OSU帧的开销区预留12比特Label,用于标识该OSU帧的通道号,例如,Label标识该业务在节点A上的通道:入端口1—出端口1,节点A根据通道号可以直接将OSU帧在出端口1发出。需要说明的是,节点A将OSU帧在出端口1发出可以理解为该OSU帧以与该出端口对应的波长发出,以及该OSU帧先被被映射到该出端口预先配置的高阶ODUk数据帧中,然后再从该出端口1发出。从而,业务的建路过程被简化为交叉连接和资源配置,可以提高业务的配置效率。在OSU帧的开销区还预留12比特Type,Type标识OSU帧的类型为控制帧以及具体控制类型。例如,Type高4位比特1000标识该OSU帧为控制信令大类型,低8位比特00000010标识OSU帧具体 为业务建路控制类型。净荷区Payload为自定义字段,包含路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息。
净荷区可以包括Label Num、Label(list)、Source Node ID、Dest Node ID、Service ID、Bandwidth、Latency等业务属性信息。
净荷区自定义字段的具体字段含义可参考表1。
字段名 含义 取值
Label Num 端到端路由标签数量。 一个16bit位数值
Label(list) 路由标签栈信息,每个节点的Label标签,标识出接口 一个32bit位数值
Source Node ID 业务的源节点ID,标识业务的首节点 一个32bit位数值
Dest Node ID 业务的末节点ID,标识业务的末节点(可选) 一个32bit位数值
Service ID 业务ID,端到端路径唯一标识ID 一个32bit位数值
Bandwidth 业务带宽属性 一个32bit位数值
Latency 业务时延属性 一个32bit位数值
Reserved 预留字节,后续可扩展业务属性  
如表1所示,净荷区自定义字段可以包括标签数量Label Num、路由标签栈信息(list)Label(list)、源节点ID Source Node ID、宿节点ID Dest Node ID、业务标识ID Service ID、带宽Bandwidth、时延Latency等属性信息。其中标签数量表示业务路径上接收所述路由标签栈信息和所述业务属性信息的节点数量。剩余字节为预留字节,用于写入业务的其他扩展属性。示例地,业务的其他扩展属性可以是业务路径属性,业务路径属性表示当前OSU帧的具体控制类型。路由标签栈信息中的每个标签与节点传输业务的通道一一对应。例如,路由标签栈信息中的第一标签与节点A中传输业务的通道子架1-板位1-端口1-通道1对应,用于指示节点A在物理层为业务建立交叉连接,又如,路由标签栈信息中的第二标签与节点B中传输业务的通道子架2-板位2-端口2-通道2对应,用于指示节点B在物理层面为业务建立交叉连接。标签与通道之间的对应关系需要预先配置在各节点中。
需要说明的是,当净荷区包括业务路径属性时,本实施例中开销区的Type与净荷区的业务路径属性均可以用于标识OSU帧的具体控制类型,具体用哪个字段标识可以进行选择,本实施例对此不进行限制。
S560:节点A向节点B发送第一数据帧。
节点A向节点B发送第一数据帧。所述第一数据帧的净荷区携带路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息,所述路由标签栈信息可以是一个标签列表,包括多个标签,多个标签中的每一个与工作路径上各节点上业务的通道一一对应。
节点A在向节点B发送第一数据帧之前,还包括:将第一数据帧映射到高阶ODUk帧,然后将该ODUk帧发送给节点B。
节点A向节点B发送第一数据帧之后,还包括:节点A根据路由标签栈信息中的第一标签在物理层为业务建立交叉连接;以及,根据业务属性信息为业务在物理层配置资源,例如,为业务分配带宽。之所以先向节点B发送第一数据帧,再进行交叉建立和资源配置,是为了使第一数据帧尽快传输到工作路径的对端,各节点并行完成业务通道的交叉连接和资源配置,从而缩短路由时间。
S570:节点B获取第一数据帧中的路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息,将路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息转发给节点C。
本步骤具体包括:
S571:节点B获取第一数据帧中的路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息;
S572:节点B将包含该标签属性信息和业务属性信息的第二数据帧转发给节点C;
S573:节点B根据路由标签栈信息在物理层为业务建立交叉连接,并且根据业务属性信息为业务配置资源。
节点B获取路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息之后,直接先将包含标签属性信息和业务属性信息的第二数据帧转发给其下游节点,即C节点,然后再进行本节点的处理。这样做的理由是使包含路由信息的第一数据帧尽快传输到工作路径的对端,各节点并行完成业务通道的交叉连接和资源配置,从而缩短路由时间。
需要说明的是,第二数据帧可以与第一数据帧的内容相同,或者,第二数据帧比第一数据帧少了一个第二标签。为了与第一数据帧进行区分,将节点B向节点C转发的数据帧称为第二数据帧。
应理解,路由标签栈信息包括多个标签,节点B获取路由标签栈信息可以理解为获取多个标签中与节点B传输业务的通道对应的第二标签。具体地,节点B获取第二标签有两种实现方式。
方式一:堆栈方式
通过堆栈方式,第一数据帧每经过一个节点,便弹出一个标签,例如每次都弹出第一个标签,用于当前节点的业务通道的交叉建立和提供第一数据帧控制信令的转发出端口。
图7为节点通过堆栈方式获取标签的流程示意图。如图7所示,节点A向节点B发送的第一数据帧包括开销区和净荷区,其中开销区用于标识该第一数据帧为控制帧,净荷区用于携带用于建立业务通道的路由标签栈信息,例如标签数量-Label 11-Label 22-Label 33。其中标签数量表示路由标签栈信息中包含的Label的总数,Label 11对应节点A的业务通道,Label 22对应节点B的业务通道,Label 33对应节点C的业务通道。节点A的初始第一数据帧中携带三个Label,分别为Label 11、Label 22、Label 33,该初始第一数据帧在节点A处弹出第一个Label 11,用于节点A建立业务通道的交叉连接,同时该Label 11还用于指示第一数据帧的转发出端口。弹出Label 11后,Label 22成为路由标签栈信息的第一个Label,节点A继续转发该第一数据帧给节点B。该第一数据帧到达节点B,弹出当前的第一个Label 22,用于节点B建立业务通道的交叉连接,还用于指示第一数据帧的转发出端口。弹出Label 22后,Label 33称为第一个Label,也是剩下的唯一标签。节点B继续转发该第一数据帧给节点C,到达节点C后,弹出唯一Label 33,用于节点C建立业务通道的交叉连接。由于Label 33为最后一个标签,弹出后节点C识别到第一数据帧内没有剩余的Label,判断不再需要继续转发。
需要说明的是,通过堆栈方式获取标签,每个节点在获取标签后需要重新编辑报文再转发。第一数据帧第一数据帧第一数据帧。
节点通过堆栈方式获取标签,第一数据帧中的报文随着转发逐渐减少,传输速度更快。
方式二:指针方式
本方式中,路由标签栈信息中包含一个标签指针字段,用于指示当前节点需要获取的标签。如图8所示,节点A向节点B发送的第一数据帧包括开销区和净荷区,其中开销区用于标识该第一数据帧为控制帧,净荷区用于携带用于建立业务通道的路由标签栈信息,例如标签数量-Label 11-Label 22-Label 33。其中标签数量表示路由标签栈信息中包含的Label的总数,Label 11对应节点A的业务通道,Label 22对应节点B的业务通道,Label 33对应节点C的业务通道。与堆栈方式不同的是,本方式中的路由标签栈信息中包含一个Pointer,用于指示当前节点需要获取的标签。每经过一个节点,路由标签栈信息不变,指针Pointer加1。
例如,在节点A,Pointer=1,表示节点A需要获取第一个标签Labe l1。在节点B,Pointer=2, 表示节点B需要获取第二个标签Labe 22。在节点C,Pointer=3,表示节点C需要获取第三个标签Labe 33。
需要说明的是,通过指针方式获取标签,每个节点所包含的路由标签栈信息相同,只是Pointer值有所变化第一数据帧第一数据帧。
节点通过指针方式获取标签,路由标签栈信息结构不变,仅需改变指针值,处理简单。
节点B将第二数据帧转发给其下游节点后,根据路由标签栈信息在物理层为业务建立交叉连接,建立传输业务的通道,并且根据业务属性信息为业务配置资源,例如为业务分配带宽。这样,可以使路由信息尽快传输到工作路径的对端,各节点并行完成业务通道的交叉连接和资源配置,从而缩短路由时间。
S580:节点C获取第二数据帧中的路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息,完成交叉连接的建立和资源配置。
需要说明的是,节点C为业务的末节点,在识别到路由标签栈信息中的标签仅剩最后一个时,即判断不再需要继续转发。节点C根据路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息分别完成交叉连接的建立和资源配置,具体过程可参考前述步骤,此处不再进行赘述。
S590:节点C向节点A发送响应消息,表示业务创建成功。
具体地,当网络设备为独立于节点A部署的其他设备时,例如PCE控制器,节点C也可以向其他设备发送响应消息。示例地,节点C向NCE发送响应消息。

示例地,OSU帧的开销区包括信令类型Type字段,所述Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为控制帧及具体控制类型。例如,Type字段包括12个比特位,高4位比特1000标识该OSU帧为控制信令大类型,低8位比特00000010标识OSU帧具体为业务建路控制类型。例如, Type字段可以用于指示OSU帧为第一业务创建控制帧,又例如,Type字段可以用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务1+1保护创建控制帧,再例如,Type字段还可以用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务重路由控制帧。
示例地,当Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为业务1+1保护创建控制帧时,包括两种情况:Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务的主用路径创建控制帧;或者,Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务的备用路径创建控制帧。
S930:第一节点发送所述第一数据帧。
第一节点发送所述第一数据帧后,还包括,第一节点根据所述路由标签栈信息中的第一标签在物理层面为所述业务建立连接;以及,所述第一节点根据所述业务属性信息为所述业务在所述物理层面配置资源。

示例地,OSU帧的开销区包括信令类型Type字段,所述Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为控制帧及具体控制类型。例如,Type字段包括12个比特位,高4位比特1000标识该OSU帧为控制信令大类型,低8位比特00000010标识OSU帧具体为业务建路控制类型。例如,Type字段可以用于指示OSU帧为第一业务创建控制帧,又例如,Type字段可以用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务1+1保护创建控制帧,再例如,Type字段还可以用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务重路由控制帧。
示例地,当Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为业务1+1保护创建控制帧时,包括两种情况:Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务的主用路径创建控制帧;或者,Type字段用于指示所述OSU帧为第一业务的备用路径创建控制帧。
需要说明的是,当净荷区包括业务路径属性时,本实施例中开销区的Type与净荷区的业务路径属性均可以用于标识OSU帧的具体控制类型,具体用哪个字段标识可以进行选择,本实施例对此不进行限制。
第二节点接收OSU帧可以包括:第二节点接收包含OSU帧的ODUk帧,将该ODUk帧进行解映射,得到该OSU帧。
S1020:第二节点从所述第一数据帧中获取路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息。
应理解,路由标签栈信息包括多个标签,第二节点获取路由标签栈信息可以理解为获取多个标签中与第二节点传输第一业务的通道所对应的第二标签。
具体地,第二节点获取第二标签有两种实现方式,分别为堆栈方式和指针方式,两种方式的实现细节已在前述图6和图7中进行详细说明,此处不再进行赘述。
S1030:第二节点根据路由标签栈信息建立第二节点传输第一业务的通道;根据业务属性信息为第一业务配置资源。
示例地,第二节点的随路信令控制单元将路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息上送到业务配置控制单元,业务配置控制单元根据路由标签栈信息的第二标签找到对应的通道信息:入单板-端口-通道号,以及出单板-端口-通道号,然后进行单站业务交叉连接的建立。根据业务属性基本信息下发带宽到设备硬件生效。
图11是本申请实施例提供的业务路由方法能够应用的一种场景图。
如图11所示,该场景的应用网络为GMPLS/ASON网络,具备ASON自动化功能。图11所示的ASON网络中有A、B、C三个节点。在本实施例中,节点A、B、C均开启ASON功能,并且每个节点都部署随路信令控制装置和业务配置控制装置。全网节点、链路等网络信息通过ASON协议的OSPF或者基于流量工程的最短路径优先协议(Open Shortest Path First-Traffic Engineering,OSPF-TE)自动获取,端到端业务路径建立和恢复通过ASON协议的RSVP-TE自动建立。PCE根据OSPF或者路径计算单元通信协议(Path Computation Element Communication Protocol,PCEP)等自动获取全网节点、链路、业务信息。其中PCE主要集中处理网络业务端到端路径计算,可部署在服务器网管或类似设备中。如果网络中无PCE,网络业务端到端路径可通过分布式方式由各个节点计算。
本实施例以通过OSU帧控制信令建立端到端单条业务为例对图11进行说明。
图11所示的场景下,本申请实施例提供的业务路由方法包括以下步骤:
步骤一:
在业务创建之前,网络设备预先配置OSU帧与ODUk管道的映射关系。通过上述预配置,网络设备可以将业务的建路过程简化为交叉连接和资源配置,从而提高业务的配置效率。
此外,网络设备还为不同子架、单板、端口上的OSU帧通道分别分配一个路由标签,该标签用于在站节点内唯一标识传输第一业务的通道,然后将所有的路由标签分别配置到节点内。例如,每个路由标签属性为4个字节,与节点内子架、板位、端口及通道号一一对应。同时,网络设备可以将各节点的路由标签存储在设备内。
步骤二:
节点A收到第一业务的创建请求,于是请求网络设备计算业务路径。其中,创建请求包含第一业务的带宽信息。本申请实施例中,网络设备能够获取网络中的业务和拓扑,然后根据全网络由TE和带宽信息确定承载第一业务的工作路径,之后再将所述工作路径转化为路由标签栈信息。所述路由标签栈信息用于指示所述工作路径上各节点建立传输第一业务的通道。之后,网络设备将路由标签栈信息下发给节点A。
示例地,网络设备通过计算确定承载第一业务的路径为第一路径,其中第一路径包括业务所经过的节点和节点内的业务通道信息,例如第一路径为:节点A(子架1-板位1-端口1-通道1)—节点B(子架2-板位2-端口2-通道2)—节点C(子架3-板位3-端口3-通道3)。然后,网络设备将所述第一路径转化为路由标签栈信息,例如,节点A(第一标签)—节点B(第二标签)—节点C(第三标签)。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中的建立表示节点中的业务通道为可用/激活状态,或者更 具体地,建立表示节点内传输业务的通道的交叉已建立完成。
还需要说明的是,如果节点A具备路径计算单元,当其收到第一业务的创建请求后,也可以自行计算业务路径。
步骤三:
节点A接收网络设备下发的路由标签栈信息。根据第一业务的创建请求,首节点A识别需要通过OSU帧控制信令进行业务创建。
节点A将该路由标签栈信息插入OSU帧的字段中。此外,节点A还可以将业务属性信息插入OSU帧的字段中,用于指示业务路径上的节点为业务配置资源。例如,所述业务属性信息包括以下信息:业务标识ID、带宽、时延、源节点标识ID、宿节点标识ID。然后,节点A向节点B发送该OSU帧。
节点A在向节点B发送OSU帧之前,还包括:对OSU帧信令报文进行封装映射,映射到高阶ODUk帧,然后将该ODUk帧发送给节点B。
节点A向节点B发送OSU帧之后,还包括:节点A根据路由标签栈信息中的第一标签在物理层为业务建立交叉连接;以及,根据业务属性信息为业务在物理层配置资源,例如,为业务分配带宽。之所以先向节点B发送OSU帧,再进行交叉建立和资源配置,是为了使OSU帧控制信令尽快传输到工作路径的对端,各节点并行完成业务通道的交叉连接和资源配置,从而缩短路由时间。
示例地,OSU帧的开销区包括12字节Type,用于标识OSU帧的类型为控制帧以及具体控制类型。例如,Type高4位比特1000标识该OSU帧为控制信令大类型,低8位比特00000010标识OSU帧具体为创建第一业务控制类型。净荷区Payload为自定义字段,携带路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息。OSU帧的报文格式及净荷区自定义字段的具体字段含义可参考前述图5所示实施例,此处不再进行赘述。
步骤四:
节点B获取路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息之后,直接先将OSU帧转发给其下游节点,即C节点,然后再进行本节点的处理。这样做的理由是使OSU帧控制信令尽快传输到工作路径的对端,各节点并行完成业务通道的交叉连接和资源配置,从而缩短路由时间。
应理解,路由标签栈信息包括多个标签,节点B获取路由标签栈信息可以理解为获取多个标签中与节点B传输业务的通道对应的第二标签。具体地,节点B获取第二标签有两种实现方式,分别为堆栈方式和指针方式,两种方式的实现细节已在前述图6和图7中进行详细说明,此处不再进行赘述。
节点B将OSU帧转发给其下游节点后,根据路由标签栈信息在物理层为业务建立交叉连接,建立传输业务的通道,并且根据业务属性信息为业务配置资源,例如为业务分配带宽。
步骤五:
节点C获取OSU帧中的路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息,完成交叉连接的建立和资源配置。节点C为业务的末节点,在识别到路由标签栈信息中的标签仅剩最后一个时,即判断不再需要继续转发。节点C根据路由标签栈信息和业务属性信息分别完成交叉连接的建立和资源配置,具体过程可参考前述步骤,此处不再进行赘述。
步骤六:
节点C向节点A发送响应消息,表示业务创建成功。
具体地,当网络设备为独立于节点A部署的其他设备时,例如PCE控制器,节点C也可以向其他设备发送响应消息。示例地,节点C向NCE发送响应消息。
图11所示的数据帧的发送方法,主要包含以下两个关键点:1)单站OTN数据帧映射关系和路由标签预配置,提前配置OSU帧管道与ODUk管道的映射关系,同时将OSU帧的管道带宽设置为0,将数据帧的发送过程简化为交叉连接和资源配置,从而提高业务的配置效率。单站配置标签与业务管道的对应关系。2)OSU帧控制信令报文先随路转发,建立业务的端到端建立,等端到端业务建立成功后,再发送数据帧,控制帧不再进行发送。
图12是本申请实施例提供的另一种业务路由方法的应用场景图。
如图12所示,该场景的应用网络为GMPLS/ASON网络,具备ASON自动化功能。图12所示的ASON网络中有A、B、C、D四个节点。在本实施例中,节点A、B、C、D均开启ASON功能,并且每个节点都部署随路信令控制装置和业务配置控制装置。全网节点、链路等网络信息通过ASON协议的OSPF或者基于OSPF-TE自动获取,端到端业务路径建立和恢复通过ASON协议的RSVP-TE自动建立。PCE根据OSPF或者PCEP等自动获取全网节点、链路、业务信息。其中PCE主要集中处理网络业务端到端路径计算,可部署在服务器网管或类似设备中。如果网络中无PCE,网络业务端到端路径可通过分布式方式由各个节点计算。
本实施例以通过OSU帧控制信令建立1+1业务为例对图12进行说明。1+1业务快速创建的原理基本同图11所示的单条业务创建基本一致,通过OSU帧控制信令先创建主工作路径使业务快速打通,然后再创建备保护路径,通过扩展业务主/备路径属性和通过唯一业务ID关联来实现主/备路径的汇聚点(即首、末节点)业务保护组的配置。
图12所示的场景下,本申请实施例提供的业务路由方法包括以下步骤:
步骤一:
在业务创建之前,网络设备预先配置OSU帧与ODUk管道的映射关系。具体配置过程可参考前述实施例,此处不再进行赘述。
步骤二:
节点A收到第一业务的1+1创建请求,于是请求网络设备计算第一业务的主备路径。示例地,网络设备通过计算确定第一业务的工作路径为:节点A(子架1-板位1-端口1-通道1)—节点B(子架2-板位2-端口2-通道2)—节点C(子架3-板位3-端口3-通道3),确定第一业务的保护路径为:节点A(子架2-板位1-端口1-通道1)—节点B(子架3-板位2-端口2-通道2)—节点C(子架4-板位4-端口3-通道3)。
网络设备将工作路径转换为路由标签栈信息:节点A+标签1—节点B+标签2—节点C+标签3;将保护路径转换为路由标签栈信息:节点A+标签4—节点B+标签5—节点C+标签6。
网络设备将上述第一业务的工作路径路由标签栈信息和保护路径的路由标签栈信息下发给节点A。上述路由标签栈信息可以为一条消息也可以是多条消息的统称,即工作路径的路由标签栈信息以及保护路径的路由标签栈信息可以通过一条消息发送给节点A,也可以通过两条或者多条消息发送给节点A。例如,网络设备先将工作路径的路由标签栈信息下发给节点A,然后再将保护路径的路由标签栈信息下发给节点A。
步骤三:
节点A接收工作路径的路由标签栈信息以及保护路径的路由标签栈信息。节点根据第一业务的创建请求,首节点A识别需要通过OSU帧控制信令进行1+1业务创建。
节点A先将工作路径的路由标签栈信息插入第一OSU帧的Payload字段中,此外,节点A还可以将业务属性信息插入第一OSU帧的Payload字段中,用于指示工作路径上的节点为第一业务配置资源。例如,所述业务属性信息包括以下信息:业务标识ID、带宽、时延、源节点标识ID、宿节点标识ID。和/或,节点B再将保护路径的路由标签栈信息插入第二OSU 帧的字段中,同理,第二OSU帧也可以携带业务属性信息。然后。节点A将第一OSU帧和/或第二OSU帧发送至下游节点。
与前述图11所示的情景不同的是,本实施例中的业务属性信息还包括路径属性信息,用于标识当前OSU帧的具体控制类型。例如,第一OSU帧携带的业务属性信息包括路径属性信息,用于标识第一OSU帧为第一业务工作路径创建控制帧。又例如,第二OSU帧携带的业务属性信息包括路径属性信息,用于标识第二OSU帧为第一业务保护路径创建控制帧。
Payload自定义字段所包含的字段及具体含义可参考表2。

节点A在向节点B发送第一OSU帧和/或第二OSU帧之前,还包括:对第一OSU帧和/或第二OSU帧信令报文进行封装映射,映射到高阶ODUk帧,然后将该ODUk帧发送给节点B。
示例地,节点A先向节点B发送第一OSU帧,等第一业务的工作路径建立后再发送第二OSU帧。节点A先向节点B发送第一OSU帧后,还包括:节点A根据工作路径的路由标签栈信息中的第一标签在物理层为业务建立交叉连接;以及,节点A根据业务属性信息为业务在物理层配置工作路径资源,例如,为业务分配工作带宽。之所以先向节点B发送第一OSU帧,是为了快速建立业务。业务建立后,节点A再发送第二OSU帧建立第一业务的保护路径。
需要说明的是,节点A作为第一业务的首节点,在创建保护路径的交叉连接时,可以通过唯一的业务ID进行本地查找与关联,发现已建立工作路径的交叉连接,则开始创建保护路径的交叉连接,即创建业务保护组,下发至硬件生效。
本情景下的步骤四~步骤六与图11情景下的步骤四~步骤六相同,可参考前述实施例的说明,此处不再进行赘述。
图13是本申请实施例提供的另一种业务路由方法的应用场景图。
如图13所示,该场景的应用网络为GMPLS/ASON网络,具备ASON自动化功能。图13所示的ASON网络中有A、B、C、D四个节点。在本实施例中,节点A、B、C、D均开启ASON功能,并且每个节点都部署随路信令控制装置和业务配置控制装置。全网节点、链路等网络信息通过ASON协议的OSPF或者基于OSPF-TE自动获取,端到端业务路径建立和恢复通过ASON协议的RSVP-TE自动建立。PCE根据OSPF或者PCEP等自动获取全网节点、链路、业务信息。其中PCE主要集中处理网络业务端到端路径计算,可部署在服务器网管或类似设备中。如果网络中无PCE,网络业务端到端路径可通过分布式方式由各个节点计算。
本实施例以通过OSU帧控制信令进行业务的重路由为例进行说明。
图13所示的场景下,本申请实施例提供的业务路由方法包括以下步骤:
步骤一:
在业务创建之前,网络设备预先配置OSU帧与ODUk管道的映射关系。具体配置过程可参考前述实施例,此处不再进行赘述。
步骤二:
第一业务的当前工作路径为A-B-C,当第一业务创建完成,网络设备或者NCE基于全网节点和拓扑计算第一业务的恢复路径A-D-C,将恢复路径转换为路由标签栈信息下发至首节点A。首节点A存储该路由标签栈信息。
步骤三:
第一业务的工作路径上A-B出现故障,例如断纤,首节点A感知第一业务的工作路径出现故障,则直接启用本地端到端恢复路径进行业务恢复,恢复路径A-D-C。
具体地,首节点A将恢复路径的路由标签栈信息插入OSU帧的Payload字段中,此外,节点A还可以将业务属性信息插入OSU帧的Payload字段中,用于指示恢复路径上的节点为第一业务配置资源。例如,所述业务属性信息包括以下信息:业务标识ID、带宽、时延、源节点标识ID、宿节点标识ID。然后,节点A将该OSU帧发送至节点D。
需要说明的是,本实施例中的业务属性信息也包括路径属性信息,用于标识当前OSU帧的具体控制类型。与前述图12所示的情景不同的是,OSU帧携带的路径属性信息用于标识所述OSU帧为第一业务恢复路径创建控制帧,即第一业务重路由控制帧。
Payload自定义字段所包含的字段及具体含义可参考表3。
字段名 含义 取值
Label Num 端到端路由标签数量。 一个16bit位数值
Label(list) 路由标签栈信息,每个节点的Label标签,标识出接口 一个32bit位数值

需要说明的是,OSU帧开销区中的Type也可以用于标识OSU帧的具体控制类型,占用开销区12比特,其中高4位比特用于标识控制帧大类型,低8位比特用于标识具体控制类型。
节点A向节点B发送OSU帧后,还包括:节点A根据恢复路径的路由标签栈信息中的第一标签在物理层为业务恢复建立交叉连接;以及,节点A根据业务属性信息为业务在物理层配置恢复路径资源,例如,为业务分配恢复带宽。之所以先向节点B发送OSU帧,再进行交叉建立和资源配置,是为了使OSU帧控制信令尽快传输到恢复路径的对端,各节点并行完成业务通道的交叉连接和资源配置,从而缩短业务的重路由时间。
本情景下的步骤四~步骤六与图11情景下的步骤四~步骤六相同,可参考前述实施例的说明,此处不再进行赘述。
图14是本申请实施例提供的另一种业务路由方法的应用场景图。
如图14所示,该场景的应用网络为GMPLS/ASON网络,具备ASON自动化功能。图 14所示的ASON网络中有A、B、C、D四个节点。在本实施例中,节点A、B、C、D均开启ASON功能,并且每个节点都部署随路信令控制装置和业务配置控制装置。全网节点、链路等网络信息通过ASON协议的OSPF或者基于OSPF-TE自动获取,端到端业务路径建立和恢复通过ASON协议的RSVP-TE自动建立。PCE根据OSPF或者PCEP等自动获取全网节点、链路、业务信息。其中PCE主要集中处理网络业务端到端路径计算,可部署在服务器网管或类似设备中。如果网络中无PCE,网络业务端到端路径可通过分布式方式由各个节点计算。
本实施例以通过OSU帧控制信令进行业务的区段恢复为例对图14进行说明。
图14所示的场景下,本申请实施例提供的业务路由方法包括以下步骤:
步骤一:
在业务创建之前,网络设备预先配置OSU帧与ODUk管道的映射关系。具体配置过程可参考前述实施例,此处不再进行赘述。
步骤二:
第一业务的当前工作路径为A-B-C,当第一业务创建完成,网络设备或者NCE基于全网节点和拓扑计算第一业务的恢复路径A-B-D-C,将恢复路径转换为路由标签栈信息下发至首节点A。首节点A存储该路由标签栈信息。
步骤三:
第一业务的工作路径中的B-C链路出现故障,例如断纤,节点B感知第一业务的工作路径出现故障,查找到受影响的业务并通告至第一业务的首节点A。首节点A感知链路B-C出现故障,本地查找并匹配到第一业务对应的恢复路径A-B-D-C,则直接启用本地端到端恢复路径A-B-D-C进行业务恢复。
具体地,首节点A将恢复路径的路由标签栈信息插入OSU帧的Payload字段中,此外,节点A还可以将业务属性信息插入OSU帧的Payload字段中,用于指示恢复路径上的节点为第一业务配置资源。例如,所述业务属性信息包括以下信息:业务标识ID、带宽、时延、源节点标识ID、宿节点标识ID。然后,节点A将该OSU帧发送至节点B。
需要说明的是,本实施例中的业务属性信息也包括路径属性信息,用于标识当前OSU帧的具体控制类型。OSU帧携带的路径属性信息用于标识所述OSU帧为第一业务恢复路径创建控制帧,即第一业务重路由控制帧。
净荷区自定义字段所包含的字段及具体含义与图13场景相同,具体可参考表3,此处不再进行赘述。
需要说明的是,本实施例中工作路径与恢复路径共享A-B链路段,因此节点A的交叉连接与带宽已经配置完成,无需重复配置。
本情景下的步骤四~步骤六与图11情景下的步骤四~步骤六相同,可参考前述实施例的说明,此处不再进行赘述。
此外,本申请的业务路由方法还可以用于业务的删除。删除过程至少包括以下步骤:
步骤一:
NCE向业务首节点下发业务删除请求,例如,所述删除请求携带业务ID、源节点ID、宿节点ID等信息。
步骤二:
首节点A收到上述删除请求,根据业务ID本地获取数据帧的发送标签栈信息,将路由标签栈信息插入OSU帧的净荷区自定义字段中。此外,节点A还将业务属性信息插入OSU帧的净荷区自定义字段中。业务属性信息可以仅包括业务ID。
在OSU帧的开销区预留12比特Type,用于标识OSU帧的控制类型。例如,高4位比特1000用于标识控制帧大类型,低8位比特00000011用于标识业务删除具体控制类型。
首节点A向下游节点发送该OSU帧,由于业务已经存在,因此可以直接随数据流进行转发。从这个角度上说,路由标签栈信息可以选带。在节点A发送该OSU帧后,节点A中的业务配置控制单元根据业务ID找出与之匹配关联的业务交叉连接,下发消息至数据面删除业务通道的交叉连接。
后续步骤可参考前述业务的建路过程,主要区别在于以下两点:1)OSU帧控制信令的报文内容不同,本实施例中OSU帧可以只携带业务删除控制信令标识和业务ID即可,路由标签栈信息可以选带;2)OSU帧可以随业务数据流直接转发,不需要根据OSU帧携带的路由标签栈信息获取出端口进行转发。
