IP (Internet Protocol) address management method of virtual machines

Abstract

The invention provides an IP (Internet Protocol) address management method of virtual machines, which comprises the following steps that a group of IP addresses corresponding to an IP management system are added by the IP management system in accordance with an IP address range, the IP addresses are partitioned by the IP management system, and continuous available IP addresses are obtained. By utilizing the IP address management method, a continuous available IP address pool can be obtained, thereby solving address conflict and guaranteeing that the IP addresses of the virtual machines in a same working group are positioned in the same IP address pool, so that the virtual machines in the same working group are conveniently managed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to the field of computer technology, and more specifically, relates to a virtual machine IP address management method. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of computer hardware processing capabilities and the development of virtualization technology, building a service platform based on virtualization technology, especially a cloud computing platform that incorporates virtualization technology, can effectively expand the capacity of hardware and improve resource utilization. , Simplify the software configuration process, thereby reducing the cost of operating and maintaining computer hardware and software. [0003] In a cloud computing platform based on virtualization technology, the unit that provides services for applications with different system requirements is usually a virtual machine. A virtual machine is a computer system that is simulated on a cloud computing platform by using logical reso...

[0005] However, when using the virtual machine IP address control method to assign IP addresses to multiple virtual machines, the IP addresses of these virtual machines are randomly generated IP addresses, and the IP addresses assigned to virtual machines in a workgroup cannot be It is limited to a continuous IP address pool, that is, the IP address of a virtual machine in a workgroup may be in multiple IP address pools, so it is not convenient to manage the virtual machines in the workgroup through IP addresses

Especially when assigning IP addresses to virtual machines in multiple workgroups, although all the assigned IP addresses are known, since the assigned IP addresses are random, the IP addresses of the virtual machines have no rules to follow and cannot be assigned The IP addresses of the same workgroup are limited to the same continuous IP address pool, so it is not convenient to manage multiple workgroups through IP addresses
