Embodiment 1

[0050] Such as figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a preferred virtual network automatic discovery and automatic configuration method, the method includes the following steps:

[0051] S202, the tenant terminal system automatically discovers a network virtualization edge node (NVE); in this embodiment, the tenant terminal system may include but not limited to at least one of the following: a virtual machine VM, a physical computer, or a server;

[0052] S204, the NVE initiates the virtual network VN identity authentication of the tenant terminal system; in this embodiment, the step of VE initiating the virtual network VN identity authentication of the tenant terminal system includes: after sending the NVE confirmation message, the NVE initiates the tenant terminal The system performs VN identity authentication. Preferably, after the tenant terminal system passes the VN identity authentication, the NVE obtains the VN-ID, and sends an authentication pass response...

Embodiment 2

[0074] Figure 4 It is a flow chart of a specific implementation of the method for automatic discovery and automatic configuration of the virtual network of the present invention. Such as Figure 4 As shown, the above method includes the following steps:

[0075] Step 401, the computer system in the virtual network VN, or called the tenant terminal system TES, obtains the relevant information of the VN to be joined.

[0076] Wherein, TES refers to a virtual machine VM, or a physical computer, server and other computer equipment. For the sake of brevity, in the following description, the tenant terminal system is represented by VM.

[0077] The most basic information about the VN includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: the name of the VN, and the identification information of the VN (VN-ID).

[0078] The specific method of obtaining information, preferably, TES users or administrators can obtain the relevant information of the above-mentioned VN through ...

Embodiment 3

[0114] In the method given in Embodiment 2, IEEE is required to allocate two new Ethernet frame types. Generally speaking, this type is a resource that may be in short supply or difficult to obtain. To this end, the existing Ethernet type can be used to expand and realize the functions related to the automatic discovery of lights by the NVE. The difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is to provide an alternative solution, which specifically includes: the existing PPPoE Ethernet type can be used to expand the definition of the relevant message of the protocol, so as to realize the present invention The process of automatic discovery of the NVE to be solved.

[0115] In order to be compatible with and different from existing protocols, the specific implementation may include: using a new PPPoE version number, such as version 2, to show that it is different from the existing PPPoE protocol (version 1), and to indicate that this new version mainly Is the aut...

Abstract

Disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention are a method and device thereof for automatically finding and configuring a virtual network (VN), the method comprising: a tenant terminal system automatically finds a network virtualization edge (NVE); the NVE initiates a VN identification authentication on the tenant terminal system; and after the tenant terminal system passes the VN identification authentication, the NVE automatically configures the VN forwarding table of the VN. The embodiment of the present invention solves the technical problem of low VN configuration efficiency in the prior art due to manual VN configuration, and attains improved VN configuration efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, and more specifically relates to a virtual network automatic discovery and automatic configuration method, a tenant terminal system and a network virtualization edge node (Network Virtualization Edge, NVE for short). Background technique [0002] With the development of network technology and applications, especially cloud computing-related IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service, infrastructure as ( / ie) business), PaaS (Platform as a Service, platform as ( / ie) business) and SaaS ( Software as a Service, the development of software as ( / that is) business, provides different network services for different users in the data center, which has become a typical business requirement. Since these services are generally for public users, and there are generally thousands, or tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of computers in the data center, the number of users that can be supported is relativel...
