Method for balancing network resources and virtual network management entity

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method for network resource equalization processing, and a virtual network management entity, relates to the field of communication, provides a coping mechanism when network resources are overloaded, and solves a problem of effective management of resources. The method comprises the steps: obtaining virtual network segmenting information of all managed switchers through the virtual network management entity; determining whether a novel flow table segment is transmitted to the switchers or not according to the virtual network segmenting information of the controlled switchers; if a preset strategy is not met, the novel flow table segment is transmitted to one switcher meeting the preset strategy; or actively triggering and analyzing the information of a flow table segment on the controlled switch under the condition that there is no novel flow table segment, and determining whether the distribution of the flow table segment of the switcher is carried out or not. The method is suitable for the management of virtual network resources.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method for equalizing network resources and a virtual network management entity. Background technique [0002] With the rapid expansion of the scale of the Internet, the diversity and complexity of network services are becoming higher and higher. The existing routing mechanism is too bloated to support fast updates, and the weak controllability severely constrains network administrators' understanding of the network. The ability to respond quickly to problems that arise. Moreover, switching equipment, as a key node in the network, has very limited open interfaces under the monopoly of existing equipment providers, and many open ideas and protocols in the network cannot be tested and verified. [0003] Therefore, a new network switching model, OpenFlow, emerged as a set of switching standards with open interfaces and support for multiple controls. The OpenFlow switch includes a flow ...
