Abstract

The invention provides a processing method and device of messages in a VxLAN (virtual extensible local area network). The method includes: establishing a VxLAN tunnel with each VTEP (VxLAN tunnel end point); receiving an unknown unicast message transmitted by the source VTEP, determining all target VTEPs, except for the source VETP, in the VxLAN according to a VxLAN identifier carried in the unknown unicast message, and transmitting the unknown unicast message to the target VTEP. The processing method and device according to the scheme has the advantages that a proxy server added to the VxLAN is used to copy and forward the unknown unicast message, and network resources among VTEP devices are greatly saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a method and device for processing unknown unicast messages in a virtual extended local area network. Background technique [0002] With the widespread application of virtual technology, 4096 VLANs (Virtual Local Area Network, virtual local area network) are far from meeting the needs of large-scale cloud computing data centers. Therefore, VxLAN (Virtual Extensible Local Area Network, virtual extended local area network) The virtual machine side uses tunnel port technology to build a virtualized layer-2 network on the physical layer-3 network, and create a large number of virtual extended LANs on the existing network architecture. Different virtual extended LANs use VNI (VxLAN Network Identifier, virtual extended LAN network identifier), and each VNI can contain up to 4094 VLANs, thereby expanding the number of virtual local area networks and satisfying users. [0003] Su...
