Embodiment Construction

[0052] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0053] The present invention is a kind of method that prevents the router of LFA mode from appearing loop when fast rerouting in multi-link failure environment, and specific content is:

[0054] Each router obtains multiple groups of backup routing entries according to the calculation method of LFA backup routing, and each group of backup routing entries corresponds to a certain link failure of itself; and adopts the method of sending failure notification messages between adjacent routers Communication mechanism to prevent loops;

[0055] After a router detects a link failure, it first queries a group of backup routing entries related to the link failure in its own backup routing table, and forwards to the next backup routing entry determined by each backup routin...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for avoiding loops for routers adopting LFA mode in multilink fault environment. As the traditional LFA rapid rerouting mode is mainly used to deal with single link fault, namely that the routers adopting LFA mode respectively calculate backup route entry of the route entry of the routers; with regards to the same target address, adjacent routers take each other as the next hop for backup thereof; so that when multilink faults occur, adjacent routers perhaps take each other as the next hop thereof to create loops. The method of the invention better deals with the restriction that the LFA mode can only handle single link faults; in addition, in the method, communication process is established between adjacent routers using LFA mode, so that when multilink faults occur in succession, loops can be avoided between adjacent routers adopting the LFA mode for rapidly rerouting; moreover, the method features simple and easy operation sequences, no need of greatly modifying the traditional router protocols and convenient deployment and implementation in terms of engineering.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for avoiding loops by a router adopting LFA mode in a multi-link failure environment, to be precise, relates to a method for fast rerouting by adopting a loop-avoiding backup LFA mode under the condition of multi-link failures A method for how to avoid loops in a router belongs to the technical field of IP network communication. Background technique [0002] On an IP network, when a router detects a link failure, the traditional processing method is: [0003] (1) The router that finds the fault propagates the fault message to other routers; [0004] (2) All routers that receive the failure message recalculate their respective routing entries; [0005] (3) All routers update their respective routing tables. [0006] Data flowing through the failed link will continue to be lost during this process. In order to reduce data loss and improve network performance, scientists have proposed fast rerouting technology...
