Embodiment 1
[0026] This embodiment will be described from the perspective of being a GR helper (Helper) end, the GR Helper end corresponds to the restart end, and has a neighbor relationship with the restart end. Specifically, the GR Helper end and the restart end may be routers.
[0027] A GR method of a routing protocol, comprising: the routing protocol and BFD are in a linkage state, and when it is learned that the restarting end enters the GR state of the routing protocol, it enters the GR Helper state, and keeps the neighbor relationship uninterrupted within a preset time.
[0028] see figure 1 , where the routing protocol between the GR helper and the restarting end is in linkage with BFD; the specific process can be as follows:
[0029] 101. Receive a first notification, where the first notification instructs the restart end to enter the GR state of the routing protocol;
[0030] For example, the routing protocol may specifically be OSPF, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP, Border Gate...
Embodiment 2
[0044] According to the method described in Embodiment 1, an example will be given below for further detailed description.
[0045]In this embodiment, router A is used as the restart terminal, router B is used as the GR Helper terminal, the routing protocol is the OSPF protocol, the neighbor relationship is the OSPF neighbor relationship, and the first notification is specifically the Grace LSA as an example for illustration. Among them, Router A and Router B originally had a stable OSPF neighbor relationship, and Router A has the GR capability enabled, that is, Router A has the routing protocol GR function, and OSPF protocol and BFD are in the linkage state.
[0046] see figure 2 , the specific process can be as follows:
[0047] 201. When router A enters OSPF GR, it sends a Grace LSA to all neighbors of itself (that is, router A) to announce that it has entered the OSPF GR state.
[0048] In this OSPF GR method, relative to router A, the operations performed by these neig...
Embodiment 3
[0059] In the second embodiment, the operation of BFD is mainly suppressed by the GR Helper side, so that before the timer expires, if the BFD detection fails, the neighbor relationship will not be deleted, that is, in the second embodiment, the BFD detection may also be performed. Only the implementation of the second solution can make the BFD detection not affect the neighbor relationship saved by the GR Helper end; different from the second embodiment, in this embodiment, the restart end will send a second notification to the GR Helper end to close the BFD detection , so that the neighbor relationship can be kept uninterrupted within the preset time.
[0060] Similar to Embodiment 2, in this embodiment, router A is used as the restart terminal, router B is used as the GR Helper terminal, the routing protocol is OSPF protocol, the neighbor relationship is OSPF neighbor relationship, the first notification is specifically Grace LSA, and the second The second notification is s...
