运行于卫星轨道的卫星通过星间链路构成新型网络体系,且通过星地链路与信关站共同组成卫星网络。卫星网络在空间信息获取、全球无缝通信等领域发挥着地面网络无法比拟的作用。相比于地面网络会受地理条件、自然灾害等多种因素的限制,卫星网络凭借覆盖范围广、受环境因素影响小等优势,将为下一代互联网随时随地的全球通信能力发挥基础性的作用。
然而,由于卫星具有运动性的特点,卫星与信关站之间的星地链路会发生频繁的切换。并且,随着卫星数量的激增和卫星星座规模的迅速膨胀,卫星网络与地面网络间的连接关系变化愈发频繁。相关技术中,存在采用基于虚拟拓扑的集中式路由机制、基于虚拟节点的分布式路由机制等方式,来实现地面网络与卫星网络进行通信时所采用路由机制的融合。但是由于卫星星座规模的增长,卫星与卫星之间的信息交换愈发频繁,导致卫星网络中的路由刷新频繁,存在路由收敛的时间开销较大,从而导致卫星网络的可用时长较短。

具体实施方式
结合背景技术中的介绍,卫星网络(也可称为“卫星通信网络”等)拓扑的动态性导致传统的路由协议不能直接应用于卫星网络。并且,随着空间信息技术的发展,卫星数量、卫星星座规模越来越庞大,存在卫星与地面网络间的连接关系变化愈发频繁的特点,例如随着卫星的运动,与信关站连接的馈电卫星会频繁地变化。因此,若在卫星网络中每次存在网络节点(卫星网络中的网络节点例如可以为卫星或信关站等)的路由发生变化时,便对全网路由进行一次更新,且泛洪到全网包含的每个网络节点上,则会导致卫星网络中的路由刷新频繁,存在路由收敛的时间开销较大,从而导致卫星网络的可用时长较短。此外,采用全网泛洪方式进行控制路由的更新还可能导致卫星网络中的带宽资源浪费严重的问题。
有鉴于此,本申请实施例提供一种卫星网络中的控制路由方法,基于分段路由结合多标识的设计思想,在存在卫星的路由需要更新时,根据多标识进行多分段路由(例如,如果为双标识,则可以根据双标识进行第一分段路由和第二分段路由),进而采用点到点方式进行控制路由的更新。因此可以降低网络中路由收敛的时间开销,提升网络可用性,从而可以保障网络拓扑更新的动态性和实时性。以及还可以减轻卫星网络中的带宽资源浪费的问题。
一种可选的实施方式,实现卫星网络中的分段路由需要对卫星网络进行分段,例如可以按照星间网络和星地网络将卫星网络分为两段;其中,星间网络可以表示卫星与卫星之间组成的网络,星地网络可以表示信关站与卫星之间组成的网络。另一种可选的实施方式,实现卫星网络中的分段路由还可以采用其他划分方式将卫星网络分为更多段,本申请对此不进行限定。并且,在卫星网络中的每个分段中确定目的网络节点的标识,例如在星间网络对应的分段中确定目的馈电卫星,在星地网络对应的分段中确定目的信关站。
下面将结合附图,对本申请实施例进行详细描述。为了便于理解,以下实施例中以按照星间网络和星地网络将卫星网络分为两段,以及采用双标识的实施方式作为示例,对本申请提供的方法进行介绍,按照其他划分方式的实施方式类似,本申请不再赘述。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中“多个”指两个或两个以上。“和/或”,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。另外,在本申请的描述中,“第一”、“第二”等词汇,仅用于区分描述的目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性,也不能理解为指示或暗示顺序。
参阅图1,为本申请实施例提供的一种卫星网络中的控制路由方法适用的场景示意图,即一种可能的卫星网络的架构示意图。卫星网络作为空间信息传输网络,借助卫星可以作为转发器进行中继信号的转发来进行数据传输,具有覆盖广、传输可靠性高等特点,在全球通信、导航定位、气象预测等方面发挥着越来越重要作用。通常,卫星网络可以划分为空间段、地面段和用户段,空间段主要包括多个运行在轨道中的卫星(如图1中示出的卫星1~卫星9),地面段可以包括信关站(如图1中示出的信关站A),用户段可以包括移动终端(如图1中示出的终端设备1)、手持终端等终端设备。
为了便于理解本申请提供的方法,首先对卫星网络中可能涉及的一些技术术语进行相应的解释。
(1)卫星,也可称为人造卫星。在卫星网络中,卫星可以作为转发器实现数据传输。卫星的运行轨道通常可分为位于距离地球赤道上空约500千米~1500千米的低地球轨道(low earth orbit,LEO)、距离地球赤道上空约5000千米~10000千米的中地球轨道(medium earth orbit,MEO)、距离地球赤道上空约35700千米的地球同步轨道(geosynchronous earth orbit,GEO)或倾斜地球同步轨道(inclined geosynchronous earth orbit,IGSO)等。根据星上载荷类型的不同,卫星可采用透明中继或星上处理的工作方式。
其中,在卫星网络中,与终端设备连接的卫星还可称为“接入卫星”或“卫星接入点”等,例如图1中与终端设备连接的卫星1。与信关站连接的卫星还可称为“馈电卫星”,例如图1中与信关站A连接的卫星9。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例不限定卫星网络中包含的卫星数量和卫星类型。并且,本申请实施例不限定接入卫星网络中的终端设备数量和类型、以及信关站的数量和类型。
(2)信关站,也可称为关口站。信关站一方面可以与卫星连接,通常可以负责卫星通信业务数据的分发与收集,进行卫星网络中内部数据的交换和对外网络的数据路由。
(3)终端设备,是一种具有无线收发功能的设备,是移动用户与网络交互的入口,能够提供基本的计算能力、存储能力,向用户显示业务窗口,接受用户的操作输入。终端设备可以经(无线)接入网与核心网或数据网络或卫星网络进行通信,与(无线)接入网交换语音和/或数据。示例性地,在卫星通信系统中,终端设备可通过(无线)接入网与卫星网络建立信号连接和数据连接,从而传输控制信号和业务数据到卫星网络。
示例性地,终端设备可以包括无线终端设备、移动终端设备、设备到设备(device to device,D2D)终端设备、车联网(vehicle to everything,V2X)终端设备、机器到机器/机器类通信(machine-to-machine/machine-type communications,M2M/MTC)终端设备、物联网(internet of things,IoT)终端设备、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station)、移动站(mobile station)、远程站(remote station)、接入点(access point,AP)、远程终端(remote terminal)、接入终端(access terminal)、用户终端(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)或用户装备(user device)等。例如,终端设备可以是手机(mobile phone),平板电脑(Pad),带无线收发功能的电脑,便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的移动装置等。又例如,终端设备还可以是虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)终端设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端、无人驾驶(selfdriving)中的无线终端、远程手术(remote medical surgery)中的无线终端、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端、未来演进的公用陆地移动通信网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)中的终端设备、或者V2X中的车辆设备、客户前置设备(customer premises equipment,CPE)等。再例如,终端设备还可以是 个人通信业务(personal communication service,PCS)电话、无绳电话、会话发起协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)话机、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)等设备。
作为示例而非限定,终端设备还可以是可穿戴设备。可穿戴设备也可以称为穿戴式智能设备或智能穿戴式设备等,是应用穿戴式技术对日常穿戴进行智能化设计、开发出可以穿戴的设备的总称,如眼镜、手套、手表、服饰及鞋等。可穿戴设备即直接穿在身上,或是整合到用户的衣服或配件的一种便携式设备。可穿戴设备不仅仅是一种硬件设备,更是通过软件支持以及数据交互、云端交互来实现强大的功能。广义穿戴式智能设备包括功能全、尺寸大、可不依赖智能手机实现完整或者部分的功能,例如:智能手表或智能眼镜等,以及只专注于某一类应用功能,需要和其它设备如智能手机配合使用,如各类进行体征监测的智能手环、智能头盔、智能首饰等。而如上介绍的各种终端设备,如果位于车辆上(例如放置在车辆内或安装在车辆内),都可以认为是车载终端设备,车载终端设备例如也称为车载单元(on-board unit,OBU)。
终端设备可以部署在陆地上,包括室内或室外、手持、穿戴或车载;也可以部署在水面上(如轮船等);还可以部署在空中(例如飞机、气球和卫星上等)。本申请实施例对终端设备所采用的具体技术、设备形态、应用场景以及名称不作限定。
(4)卫星链路,在卫星网络中的一条数据传输链路通常可以包括:发送端地球站、上行(馈电)链路、卫星转发器、下行(馈电)链路、接收端地球站。
按照空间分布可以分为星地链路和星间链路,例如星地网络中的链路为星地链路,星间网络中。星地链路也可称为“馈电链路”(可包含上行馈电链路和下行馈电链路),表示卫星与信关站之间的通信链路,例如图1中的卫星9和信关站A之间的通信链路。星间链路也可称为“星际链路”或“交叉链路”,表示卫星与卫星之间的通信链路,可实现卫星与卫星之间的数据传输和交换,例如图1中的卫星1与卫星2之间的通信链路、卫星2与卫星3之间的通信链路等卫星与卫星之间的通信链路。
其中,影响卫星链路通信性能的因素主要有:发射端的发射功率与天线增益、传输过程中的损耗、传输过程中所引入的噪声与干扰、接收系统的天线增益和噪声等。
相关技术中,卫星网络主要通过“快照技术”来实现星上的路由转发,也即基于虚拟拓扑的集中式路由机制。然而,由于卫星数量的激增,星座规模的迅速膨胀,使卫星网络内及其与地面网络间的连接关系变化愈发频繁。基于虚拟拓扑的集中式路由机制在链路连接关系更加高动态变化场景中,寻求静态离散场景难度加大。并且,基于虚拟拓扑切分得到的时间片数目正比于链路切换次数,这直接导致星上需要存储和维护的路由表数目增长正比于链路切换次数增长,从而对星上资源有限的卫星网络造成极大冲击。与此同时,基于虚拟拓扑的集中式路由机制在与地面路由机制融合时的难度较大。因为前者是利用卫星标识和星间连接关系生成路由信息,在与基于互联网协议(internet protocol,IP)路由的地面网络融合时,需要两种路由机制配合,且需要前者能根据当前地面用户连接情况及时更新星上路由的存储信息,这会产生相当大的星上维护开销,加剧星上资源压力。
目前,考虑到卫星网络内部的星间相对位置通常相对固定,一部分工作提出基于虚拟节点的分布式路由机制。基于已知的星间相对位置信息,根据星上存储的预先计 算生成的映射表选择转发接口,或者邻居之间交换位置信息和移动方向信息,比较邻居距目的地址绝对距离得到下一跳路由。这样,可以避免基于虚拟拓扑的集中式路由机制存在的路由表存储开销巨大的问题。然而,相关路由算法假设落地卫星标识已知,由于卫星高速运动,卫星与用户之间切换频繁,获取落地卫星标识会产生大量的位置更新开销。此外,由于卫星位置具有时变性,部分解决方案需要邻居间定期交换状态信息。随着卫星星座规模的增长,邻居间消息交换愈加频繁,导致卫星网络中带宽资源浪费严重。
基于此,本申请实施例提供一种可以适用于卫星网络中的控制路由方法。参阅图2,为本申请实施例提供的方法适用的卫星通信系统示意图。该卫星通信系统可以但不限于包括:卫星201、信关站202、卫星控制中心203、集中控制单元204、终端设备205以及核心网206。其中,卫星201并非特指某一卫星,表示卫星的统称。信关站202可以实现与卫星201之间的微波馈电的协同,以及与卫星控制中心203交互,实现对卫星201的配置管理,实现卫星控制面上的管理能力。卫星控制中心203主要负责提供卫星管理、配置及运维等能力。换言之,卫星控制中心203为指挥卫星工作的枢纽,用于监视和指挥卫星的运行,负责向卫星发出各种指令,控制卫星的运行姿态、信息传输等。
集中控制单元204,例如可以为软件定义网络(software defined network,SDN)控制器,主要负责提供卫星网络中的拓扑管理、路由计算、业务发放等能力,从而可以优化卫星网络中的数据传输链路。一种可选的实施例,为了便于实现本申请提供的方法,可以通过集中控制单元204为每个卫星配置对应的卫星标签,并且可以通过例如内部网络协议(internal gateway protocol,IGP)等路由协议发布到其他卫星上,以及基于例如路径计算单元通信协议(path computation element communication protocol,PCEP)等路由计算协议进行卫星网络资源信息的实时自动监测。例如,图3为本申请实施例提供的一种卫星网络中的控制路由方法适用的另一场景示意图,集中控制单元204可以为卫星1配置对应的卫星标签为1001、为卫星2配置对应的卫星标签为1002、……、为卫星9配置对应的卫星标签为1009。应理解,集中控制单元204可以为不同卫星配置不同的卫星标签,也即每个卫星标签具有唯一标识的卫星。需要说明的是,图3示出的为卫星配置的卫星标签仅作为卫星的标识的一种可能的示例,并不用来限定本申请的实施,具体实现时可采用其他的标签形式,例如卫星网络中的标识还可以为卫星的IP地址。
一种可选的实施例中,在卫星通信系统中,卫星实现链路和拓扑发现的实现过程可施为,卫星201可基于开放式最短路径优先(open shortest path first,OSPF)协议,并通过发送Hello报文来发现和建立邻居,从而得到本地链路状态信息。然后,卫星201可以将本地链路状态信息通过链路状态通告(link state advertisement,LSA)报文泛洪到星间网络中的其他卫星上,从而使得星间网络中的所有卫星均可以得到全网链路状态信息。并且,在网络收敛之后,卫星201可进行全网路由计算,得到路由表,从而可以通过查询路由表进行数据报文的传输。
终端设备205可以通过卫星通信系统,也即卫星201实现通信。并且,卫星网络还可与核心网206融合,实现终端设备与终端设备之间的信息传输。可选的,融合之 后的核心网中的网元在满足部署条件下,可以部署到卫星201上,进而可以扩展通信网络的覆盖能力、提升通信系统的可靠性。
在图2和图3示出的内容的基础上,参阅图4,为本申请实施例提供的一种卫星网络中的控制路由方法的流程示意图。具体可以包括以下步骤:
步骤401、信关站A检测到连接的馈电卫星;并向所述馈电卫星发送所述信关站的标识;其中,信关站的标识可以但不限于为信关站的IP地址。例如,图3中的信关站A可以检测到与卫星9连接,则卫星9作为信关站A的馈电卫星。信关站A将IP地址(10.1.1.100)发送给卫星9,使得卫星9可以获知连接的信关站。可以理解,与信关站A连接的馈电卫星随着卫星的运动而发生变化,例如,图3中的信关站A之前连接的馈电卫星可以为卫星9,由于卫星的运动,卫星6运动出可以与信关站A连接的区域,因此信关站A断开与卫星6的连接;而卫星9移动至可以与信关站A连接的区域,则信关站A与卫星9建立连接。这样,在信关站与一个新的卫星建立连接关系之后,可以主动进行路由发现,即信关站检测连接到的馈电卫星,并告知馈电卫星所述信关站的标识,以实现馈电卫星可以获知连接的信关站。
步骤402、馈电卫星向关联卫星发送第一消息;所述第一消息包括所述信关站的标识和所述馈电卫星的标识;其中,馈电卫星的标识可以为预先为卫星配置的卫星标签,也可以为卫星的IP地址,还可以为其他可能的形式,本申请对此不进行限定。示例但非限定,关联卫星可以根据未来一段时间内卫星网络计划处理的业务进行确定,或者也可以通过其他方式确实。示例但非限定,第一消息可以为PCEP消息,这样,信关站的标识和信关站连接的馈电卫星的标识可以承载于所述PCEP消息的扩展字段中。应理解,第一消息也可以采用其他消息类型。
示例性的,馈电卫星可通过点到点方式刷新至少一个关联卫星(图4中仅以一个馈电卫星的关联卫星作为示例,本申请不限定馈电卫星的关联卫星的数量,可以根据实际业务传输需求确定)的本地路由信息。例如,图3中的卫星9作为信关站A的馈电卫星,假设卫星9的关联卫星包括卫星1和卫星3,卫星的标识采用预先配置的卫星标签形式,则卫星9将包含信关站A的IP地址(10.1.1.100)和卫星9的卫星标签(1009)通过点到点方式发送给卫星1和卫星3。本申请实施例中,馈电卫星通过点到点方式对关联卫星的路由进行刷新,相比于相关技术中在信关站与馈电卫星的连接关系存在变化时基于IGP进行全网泛洪的实现方式,本申请通过点到点方式可以实现卫星网络中的局部传输,进行卫星网络中的局部路由刷新,从而可以避免全网路由振荡,降低路由收敛的时间开销,提升卫星网络可用性,以及可以减少带宽资源的浪费问题。
步骤403、馈电卫星的关联卫星根据所述第一消息进行本地路由信息的更新。示例性的,图3中的卫星1和卫星3作为卫星9的关联卫星,在接收到第一消息之后,分别根据卫星9的卫星标签和与卫星9连接的信关站A的IP地址对本地路由信息进行更新。此外,卫星1和卫星3还可以确定在星间网络中可以将卫星9作为第一分段路由的目的馈电卫星,并且将卫星9连接的信关站A作为第二分段路由的目的信关站,基于分段路由和双标识的方式实现卫星1到信关站A之间的控制路由、卫星3到信关站A之间的控制路由。这样,可以实现对卫星网络的网络拓扑结构进行更具动态性和 实时性的更新,从而可以基于更新后的卫星网络的网络拓扑结构来保障后续数据传输过程中的可靠性。
以及,馈电卫星的关联卫星除了可以进行本地路由信息的刷新,还可以执行信关站A对应的控制路由的刷新流程,以实现信关站A可以对卫星网络的网络拓扑变化后的控制路由进行刷新,具体实现流程请详见以下步骤404至步骤409介绍的内容。
步骤404、馈电卫星的关联卫星发送第二消息;所述第二消息包含目的信关站的标识和目的馈电卫星的标识。例如,图3中的卫星1发送的第二消息包括信关站A的标识(10.1.1.100)和卫星9的标识(1009)。示例但非限定,第二消息可以为PCEP消息,这样,关联卫星的目的信关站的标识和目的馈电卫星的标识可以承载于所述PCEP消息的扩展字段中。应理解,第二消息也可以采用其他消息类型。
本申请实施时,馈电卫星的关联卫星可以基于分段路由的设计思想发送第二消息。以按照星间网络和星地网络进行分段作为示例,可以将卫星网络划分为星间网络对应的第一分段和星地网络对应的第二分段;并且,在第一分段中选取目的馈电卫星,以实现对第二消息的第一分段路由(或可以理解为星间路由)、及在第二分段中选取目的信关站,以实现对第二消息的第二分段路由(或可以理解为星地路由)。其中,第一分段路由中的目的馈电卫星可以实现将第二消息转发给目的信关站。最后可以由目的信关站实现控制路由的刷新。
为便于理解,以图3中的卫星1作为示例,卫星9为目的馈电卫星,信关站A为目的信关站。卫星1对本地路由信息进行更新之后,可以发送IP数据包(也即第二消息),在IP数据包中可以包含卫星9的卫星标签1009,用于实现第一分段路由,也即卫星9接收到第二消息并将第二消息转发给信关站A,还可以包含信关站A的IP地址10.1.1.100,用于实现第二分段路由,也即信关站A接收卫星9发送的第二消息,进行控制路由的刷新。这样,信关站A可以确定通过卫星9与卫星1的数据传输链路可以进行业务数据的传输。
以下步骤405至409为卫星网络中的各个卫星(卫星例如可以为(馈电)卫星9、信关站A以及其他卫星)对馈电卫星的关联卫星发送的第二消息的不同处理。具体实施如下:
步骤405、卫星X基于自身标识与所述第二消息中的目的馈电卫星的标识不匹配,根据所述第二消息中包含的目的馈电卫星确定下一跳卫星。其中,卫星X可以表示非目的馈电卫星的中间卫星,本申请实施例中并非特指某一卫星,例如卫星X可以为卫星2、卫星3和卫星6。可选的,卫星2的卫星标签为1002,卫星2接收到来自卫星1的第二消息后,确定第二消息中携带的卫星标签为1009,执行步骤406。
步骤406、卫星X发送所述第二消息给所述下一跳卫星。示例性的,卫星X可以基于第二消息中携带的卫星标签进行寻址,确定将第二消息转发给下一跳卫星的转发接口。例如,卫星2基于卫星标签1009查询本地路由信息,可以确定下一跳卫星为卫星3,则卫星2可以通过与卫星3进行通信的接口3进行第二消息的转发。进一步的,卫星3可以通过与卫星6进行通信的接口继续进行第二消息的转发,直到(馈电)卫星9接收到第二消息。
需要说明的是,实际实施时可以不包含步骤405和步骤406;例如馈电卫星的关 联卫星可能与馈电卫星为邻居关系,此时馈电卫星的关联卫星可以直接将第二消息发送给馈电卫星,也即步骤404可以将第二消息发送到馈电卫星,然后执行步骤407。
步骤407、目的馈电卫星基于自身标识与所述第二消息中包含的目的馈电卫星的标识匹配,根据所述第二消息中包含的目的信关站的标识与所述连接的信关站的标识匹配,将所述第二消息转发给所述连接的信关站。例如,图3中的卫星9接收到卫星1发送的IP数据包,并从IP数据包中确定携带的卫星标签为1009,也即卫星9对应的卫星标签,执行步骤408。
另一可能的场景中,馈电卫星还可能接收到来自非关联卫星发送的第三消息,所述第三消息包括所述非关联卫星的目的信关站的标识和目的馈电卫星的标识。例如,图3中的与信关站A连接的(馈电)卫星9还可以接收到来自卫星8的第三消息,卫星8不是卫星9的关联卫星,而是其他馈电卫星的关联卫星(例如可以存在与信关站B连接的(馈电)卫星2,图3中未示出)。此时来自卫星8的第三消息中包含的目的馈电卫星的标识为卫星2的标识,目标信关站的标识为信关站B的标识。这样,与信关站A连接的(馈电)卫星9基于自身标识与所述第三消息中包含的卫星2的标识不匹配,根据所述第三消息中包含的卫星2的标识确定下一跳卫星,将所述第三消息传输给所述下一跳卫星,假设下一跳卫星为卫星6,则(馈电)卫星9将来自(非关联)卫星8的第三消息传输给卫星6。示例但非限定,第三消息可以为PCEP消息,这样,非关联卫星的目的信关站的标识和目的馈电卫星的标识可以承载于所述PCEP消息的扩展字段中。应理解,第三消息也可以采用其他消息类型。
步骤408、目的馈电卫星将所述第二消息转发给连接的信关站,也即目的信关站。例如,图3中的卫星9根据卫星1发送的IP数据包中携带的信关站A的IP地址10.1.1.100,将IP数据包转发给信关站A。
步骤409、目的馈电卫星根据所述第二消息更新卫星网络的控制路由。例如,图3中的信关站A根据第二消息进行控制路由的刷新。可以理解,信关站A还可以接收到馈电卫星的其他关联卫星(如卫星3)发送的IP数据包。
应理解,信关站A刷新的控制路由并非整个卫星网络对应的对应路由,为信关站连接的馈电卫星所关联的卫星对应的局部控制路由,从而通过点到点方式进行局部控制路由的刷新,可以减少网络收敛的时间开销,还可以降低带宽资源的浪费。
并且,在信关站A上的控制路由进行更新之后,若接收到来自卫星的待传输业务数据或来自地面网络的待传输业务数据,则信关站A可以基于更新之后的控制路由实现对待传输数据的转发。
这样,通过本申请实施例提供的方法,在卫星网络中存在连接关系的变化时(例如信关站与馈电卫星的连接),无需进行全网泛洪,而是通过第一消息将变化后的连接关系告知到馈电卫星的关联卫星上。然后关联卫星基于变化后的连接关系进行本地路由信息的刷新;以及基于分段路由和多标识的设计思想,通过多分段路由可以实现将第二消息发送到目的信关站上,最后由目的信关站进行控制路由的更新。因此,在连接变化频繁的卫星网络中,可以降低网络中路由收敛的时间开销,提升网络可用性,从而可以保障网络拓扑更新的动态性和实时性。
