The embodiment of the invention provides a data communication method, control equipment and nodes, and relates to the communication field. While message transmission is finished, the message packet loss possibility is reduced, and the success rate of message transmission is improved. According to the concrete scheme, a message transmission path is obtained, operation of issuing corresponding flow table items to the nodes on the path at the same time is carried out, whether operation of issuing the corresponding flow table items to the nodes on the path at the same time is successful or not is judged, if operation fails, the step of obtaining the message transmission path, the step of issuing the flow table items to the nodes at the same time and the step of judging whether issuing is successful or not are carried out again until all the nodes successfully receive the corresponding flow table items, and if operation succeeds, flow table item triggering information is issued to a head node, the head node is indicated to carry out the received flow table item, and therefore all the nodes transmit messages according to the received corresponding flow table items. The data communication method, the control equipment and the nodes are used for data communication.
