Embodiment Construction

[0025] figure 1 It is a flow chart of an embodiment of the method for determining the network topology provided by the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the execution subject of the following steps may be a monitoring point set in the network with the function of sending and receiving messages, and the monitoring point may be a terminal or a server, or one or more modules on the terminal or server. The method for determining the network topology specifically includes:

[0026] S101. The monitoring point sends a first detection message to the target node in the network to be tested, where the first detection message carries the Internet Protocol IP address of the target node and a set first timeout value TTL;

[0027] To determine the topology of the network to be tested is to determine the upstream and downstream connections of each node in the network to be tested, by sending a detection message, and according to the received response message returned by the tar...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for determining a network topology. The method includes the steps that after a monitoring point sends a first detection message to a target node in a network to be detected, operation of subtracting one continuously or adding one continuously is performed on first TTL in the first detection message according to a received response message or a time-out message, and an IP address carrying the target node and second detection messages or third detection messages of the first TTL after each time of subtracting one or adding one are sent to the target node until a first time-out message returned by an upstream node of the target node or a first response message returned by the target node is received; the monitoring point determines the target node and the adjacent upstream node of the target node according to the first time-out message or the first response message and determines the topological structure of the network system to be detected according to all the target nodes and all the adjacent upstream nodes of the target nodes in the network to be detected. The method and device effectively solve the technical problem that in the prior art, when the network topology is determined, the communication system overhead is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of information technology, in particular to a method and device for determining network topology. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, a method based on traceroute is mainly used to discover the IP-level topology of the network system. Traceroute discovery is that for any target node in the network whose topology structure is to be determined, the monitoring point (or detection source) gradually increases the TTL from the timeout value TTL of the data packet to 1 to send the detection packet until a certain TTL is sent After receiving the response message of the target node after the detection packet with the value of , it will not continue to send the detection packet. [0003] However, due to the overlapping characteristics of the paths, the above method needs to send a large number of detection packets, thereby increasing the overhead of the communication system and bringing a great burden to th...
