Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to routing technology, in particular to a routing method, a routing system, a service processing unit and a programmable interface board for ensuring the consistency of equal-cost routing. Background technique
[0002] Equal-cost routing refers to several different routes with the same cost that exist to a destination at the same time, and packets are sent on these routes in a balancing manner, thus implementing load balancing.
[0003] There are generally two methods for load balancing of equal-cost routes, one is packet-by-packet forwarding, and the other is stream-by-flow forwarding. Packet-by-packet forwarding can ensure that the load is evenly shared on each equal-cost path, but the problem is that the same packet flow may be shared on different forwarding paths, which causes some flow-based services to fail to work properly. Therefore, the current equal-cost routing generally adopts flow-by-flow forwarding, that is, Hash op...
