Problems solved by technology

Although the optional routing algorithm provides several routes to be selected, when a business occurs, the appropriate route is selected randomly or through other criteria. The most prominent problem brought by this algorithm is that the configuration of each node in the system is more complicated. , the cost of solving the problem is greatly increased

[0042] In order to take into account the short path and load balance, when selecting the optimal path, the top-level network element manager who knows the entire network topology first uses the traditional shortest path algorithm to obtain several short paths, and selects a path with a smaller load as the optimal path. path. First, using the existing shortest path algorithm, the information of the shortest path and the second shortest path between nodes is obtained by using certain criteria that network users care about as weights (such as path length, the sum of the loads of nodes on the path, etc.); then, According to some improved heuristic algorithm, update and process the node information on the shortest path and the second shortest path with the same specific criterion and method, and select a path as the new shortest path.

[0113] Taking the Dijkstra algorithm as an example, the idea of ​​this embodiment is different from that of the first embodiment. Instead of selecting two paths, the weights are directly brought in when selecting the shortest path, and the calculated shortest path is the optimal path.

[0114] Use the Dijkstra algorithm to calculate the shortest path. When a link (node) is selected as the optimal path between two nodes, its weight is correspondingly increased according to factors such as path length and load, so that according to the algorithm result, the link (nodes) are less likely to continue to be selected as default routes by other paths. Traverse to find all the optimal paths in the network.

[0115] In this embodiment, such as flow image 3 As shown, when a shortest path is selected as the optimal path, its length is artificially increased (m[u][j]++), so that when the next selection is made, this path is selected as the shortest path The chances of passing will be re...

Abstract

The invention discloses an optimal path selection method based on the load balance in a communication network, which can balance the load at each node among networks and reduce the network blocking rate. The method includes the following steps: when selecting an optimal path, a top-level network element manager knowing an entire network topology utilizes the existing shortest path algorithm to obtain a plurality of short paths, selects one path with small load or short path as the optimal path, or utilizes the existing shortest path algorithm to calculate and determine a certain shortest path as the optimal path, then increases weights of the determined optimal path according to the path length or load factor, calculates the shortest path among other nodes according to the path weights, and then takes the obtained shortest path as the optimal path.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method for finding an optimal path in a network. Background technique [0002] Such as figure 1 In the shown network topology, generally speaking, the optimal path selection in the network is the most suitable inter-node routing path selected with the weight of path length or other path parameters. If the path length is used as the weight, the shortest path between nodes obtained by Dijstra algorithm or Floyd algorithm is generally the optimal path. However, the traditional single-path algorithm often only selects the shortest path between nodes, but does not pay attention to the balance of the passing load on each node (and link). Facts have proved that the load balance between nodes has a great influence on the network blocking rate. Although the optional routing algorithm provides several routes to be selected, when a business occurs, the appropriate route is selected randomly o...
