Problems solved by technology

[0012] 1. When it comes to the actual network, the network administrator does not know which load sharing algorithm can share the load more evenly. It needs to be manually configured and verified one by one to find the most even load sharing algorithm. For large-scale networks, there are many aggregated links. The workload is very large; the default load shari...

Embodiment Construction

[0039] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0040] figure 2 A flowchart of a method for load sharing in an aggregated link group provided by an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in figure 2 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0041] Step 200: Pre-configure N (N is a positive integer and N>1) load sharing algorithms on the network device, one of which is the default load sharing algorithm, and set the test duration T in advance.

[0042] Here, the specific choice of the configured load sharing algorithm can be determined based on experience.

[0043] Step 201: Initially, the network device adopts a default load sharing algorithm, and distributes inbound port traffic to each member link of the aggregation link group.

[0044] Generally, network devices are configured with a default load sharing algorithm, which is usually tested by long-term practice a...

Abstract

The invention discloses are aggregation link load sharing method and device. The method includes: configuring various load sharing algorithms in a network device; starting the network device to test each self-configured load sharing algorithm for a preset duration; sharing ingress port flow to member ports in an aggregation link group by the current load sharing algorithm for testing within the test duration, calculating bandwidth of the member ports in the aggregation link group after testing, and calculating and recording differences between maximum bandwidth and minimum bandwidth of the member ports; and when testing by the load sharing algorithms is complete, selecting the load sharing algorithm corresponding to the minimum difference as the finally used load sharing algorithm. By the use of the method and device, load sharing efficiency of the aggregation links is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of link aggregation, in particular to a method and device for load sharing of aggregation links. Background technique [0002] Link aggregation is a technology often deployed on Ethernet networks. By aggregating multiple physical interfaces into one logical interface, link bandwidth and reliability are increased. figure 1 A schematic diagram of an existing typical link aggregation is given. [0003] The main advantages of using link aggregation are as follows: [0004] Bandwidth increases linearly: theoretically, the bandwidth is the sum of the bandwidths of all links in the aggregated link group; [0005] Increased reliability: the damage of a link will not cause the failure of the entire transmission; [0006] Load sharing: user traffic is divided into various links for transmission; [0007] Dynamic configuration: In the absence of manual configuration, the aggregated link group can be dynamic...
