Embodiment Construction

[0071] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0072] In the present invention, an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP, Internet Control Message Protocol) destination unreachable sending switch needs to be turned on on each intranet device between the NAT device and the internal server group. After the ICMP destination unreachable sending switch is enabled on the intranet device, the intranet device can send ICMP destination unreachable packets to the NAT device, so that the NAT device can know which one is based on the ICMP destination unreachable packet. The server is unreachable.

[0073] The service provided by the server is usually a UDP-based service or a TCP-based service. For UDP-based services, when requesting UDP services from a server fails, the NAT device will receive ICMP destination unreachable packets. For TCP-based services, when a server’s TCP-based service ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for detecting invalidation of group members of an internal server and network address translation (NAT) equipment. The method comprises the following steps of: if the NAT equipment receives an ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) target non-accessible message sent by internal network equipment, determining a non-accessible server according to the message, switching the state of the server to detection, detecting whether the server is accessible on three layers, and if not, switching the state of the server to invalid; otherwise, switching the state of the server to stale, marking a session corresponding to service flow distributed to the server with an S, switching the state of the server to delay, setting a first timer for the server, switching the state of the server to valid if the session with the mark S is switched from open state to ready state or three times of handshake of a TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) specific to the session with the mark S are successful; and otherwise, switching the state of the server to invalid. Due to the adoption of the method and the equipment, the invalidation of group members of the internal server can be detected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication detection, in particular to a method for detecting failure of members of an internal server group and a Network Address Translation (NAT, Network Address Translation) device. Background technique [0002] Through the multiple servers in the NAT internal server group to jointly provide a certain service, the load sharing of internal servers can be realized. The basic principle is that the NAT device announces a virtual IP address to the outside world. When a customer accesses the virtual IP address, the NAT device maps it to a member of the internal server group through a certain hash (HASH) algorithm. [0003] figure 1 An example network diagram of an existing internal server group providing a certain service to the outside is given, such as figure 1 As shown, when a personal computer (PC, Personal Computer) 1 accesses the virtual IP address 212.1.1.2 announced by the NAT device, it may be...
