Method and system for automatically controlling flow of peer-to-peer networking service

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a system for automatically controlling flow of peer-to-peer networking P2P service. The method comprises the following steps that: network equipment makes statistics of flow of a current network, and determines and executes a current flow control mode according to a currently occupied network flow and a flow control strategy; if the current flow is smaller than a set first threshold, the designated P2P application connection is allowed to be increased; and if the current flow is greater than a set second threshold, the designated P2P application connection is disconnected, and the first threshold is less than or equal to the second threshold. The method and the system have the advantages of overcoming the defects existing in the conventional network flow management that the management of the P2P application flow lacks of flexibility, single disconnection is performed or a single strategy is implemented, ensuring the normal operation of the network service not to be affected during a busy period of the network service, and reasonably allocating resources for the P2P so as to avoid the waste of the network resources when the network flow is small and the idle bandwidth for utilization exists.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and system for automatic flow control in the application process of P2P (peer-to-peer, peer-to-peer networking), which can be applied to network management products and audit products. Background technique [0002] The network management system is an important means of network security protection that is increasingly widely used at present. It achieves optimal network utilization efficiency through the configuration of the overall network internal structure and applications. Through the monitoring of the current network operation status and policy adjustment, it enables the smooth and normal operation of network services, avoids the abuse and waste of network resources, and ensures the normal operation of the network system. It is an effective method for enterprises to realize IT management and control. With the development of the network, there are more and more P2P applications in the current network environment.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Secondly, some network management systems or managers have adopted the practice of limiting the flow or number of connections to limit the use of P2P applications to avoid interference with normal network services

However, most of the restriction methods are single, such as limiting the connection threshold or traffic threshold, etc.

This will also cause some problems. Using the same restriction method when the network is busy and when the network is not busy will inevitably cause a waste of network resources.
