Communication method of transmission control protocol (TCP) and server

Abstract

The invention discloses a communication method of a transmission control protocol (TCP) and a server. A first communication agent of a first server receives a data packet sent by a first application program, analyzes a destination address of the data packet and determines a second server in which a second application program is located, wherein the second application program receives the data packet. The data packet is put in a first queue and is sent to a second communication agent through the regular connection of data link of the first communication agent and the second communication agent of the second server. The first communication agent of the first server receives the data packet which is sent by the second application program and is forwarded by the second communication agent through the regular connection of data link, analyzes the destination address of the data packet, puts the data packet into a second queue and sends to the first application program which receives the data packet through inter-process communication connection. By using the method and the server of the invention, an actual connection quantity between the first application program and the second application program can be substantially reduced and resources needed by a system to maintain TCP connection can be effectively saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of network communication, in particular to a communication method and server of the transmission control protocol TCP. Background technique [0002] If the two parties in the communication need to communicate through the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP, Transmission Control Protocol), it is necessary to establish a TCP connection between the communication parties such as the client (client) application program and the server (server) application program, and then on this connection send data to each other. In the TCP protocol, an IP address and port are used to identify a communicating party, and the port identification is a 16-bit unsigned integer with a value between 1 and 65535. [0003] Take the process of establishing a TCP connection between a server application and a client application as an example. Before establishing a connection, the server application first opens a port and listens on the por...
