Problems solved by technology

[0011] However, due to the limitation of EVI forwarding, ED cannot continue to perform IP forwarding after decapsulating the packets encapsulated by the Ethernet over IP GRE tunnel, but can only perform Layer 2 destination MAC search and forwarding in the EVI network.

Embodiment Construction

[0033] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0034] In the method provided by the present invention, all EDs in the EVI networking are used as gateway devices, configured with the same IP address and MAC address, and connected to each other through EVI LINK.

[0035] figure 2 It shows that the following two EDs exist in the EVI network: ED1 and ED2. Based on the above description, the ED1 and ED2 are also used as gateway devices in the EVI network, connected to each other through the EVI LINK, and configured with the same IP address and MAC address, such as figure 2 As shown, the IP address is 10.1.1.1, and the MAC address is 0000-0000-0001.

[0036] In the present invention, since all EDs in the EVI networking are used as gateway devices, in order to avoid ARP conflicts, the present inv...

Abstract

The application provides a gateway access method and apparatus in Ethernet virtualization interconnection (EVI) networking. All edge devices (EDs) in the EVI networking are used as gateway devices, and are configured to have identical IP addresses and MAC addresses. Any ED executes the steps: determining a corresponding route according to a destination IP address of a data message received from a public network side; at an output port EVI LINK of the route, performing IP over IP GRE tunnel encapsulation on the data message and sending the data message through the output port of the route; and receiving the data message subjected to IP over IP GRE tunnel encapsulation through the EVI LINK, removing the encapsulation of the data message, determining a route used for forwarding the data message according to the destination IP address of the data message, and forwarding the data message, from which the IP GRE tunnel encapsulation is removed, through the output port of the determined route. The gateway access method realizes normal access of services, and also realizes seamless migration of a host in the EVI networking.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to network communication technology, in particular to a gateway access method and device in an Ethernet Virtualization Interconnection (EVI: Ethernet Virtualization Interconnection) networking. Background technique [0002] Ethernet Virtualization Interconnection (EVI: Ethernet Virtualization Interconnection) is an Ethernet interconnection technology that can deploy multiple data centers in different places to achieve load sharing and high reliability. [0003] The technical terms involved in EVI networking are explained below: [0004] Edge device (ED: Edge Device), which is used to forward packets from the private network to the public network, and from the public network to the private network. [0005] An EVI instance (instance), also known as a virtual interworking instance, is uniquely identified by a network ID (Network ID). Packet forwarding in different EVI instances is isolated from each other. [0006] Virtu...
