Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of data communication, in particular to a smooth restart method and neighbor equipment. Background technique
[0002] Graceful restart (GR, Graceful Restart) refers to ensuring normal data forwarding and uninterrupted key services when the protocol is restarted. GR technology is a kind of high reliability technology. GR is a redundant fault-tolerant technology, which has been widely used in active-standby switchover and system upgrade to ensure uninterrupted forwarding of key services.
[0003] Currently, multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) protocols supporting GR include: label distribution protocol (LDP) and resource reservation protocol (RSVP). When the two protocols support GR, parameters related to GR are added in the initialization message of the protocol, and these parameters are exchanged when establishing a session between routers to help GR.
[0004] Taking LDP as an example, the existing LDP G...
