Abstract

This application discloses a method for assisting an Ethernet Fiber Channel endpoint device to log in to a forwarder, including: receiving an active multicast discovery notification message sent by the Ethernet Fiber Channel forwarder FCF; if the FCF meets the login conditions, determine the active group The delay time of the broadcast discovery notification message; the second priority of the FCF is determined according to the delay time and the first priority of the FCF; if the second priority is not less than the preset priority, the active multicast discovery The first priority in the notification message is replaced with the second priority, and the modified active multicast discovery notification message is sent to the local endpoint device ENode. The application also discloses a device for assisting an end point device of the Ethernet fiber channel to log into the transponder. By adopting the embodiment of the present application, it is possible to control the ENode to select an FCF with a shorter distance and a higher priority to log in, so as to solve the problem of unbalanced FCF load in the prior art.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of optical fiber communication, in particular to a method and a device for assisting an Ethernet fiber channel endpoint device to log into a transponder. Background technique [0002] Currently, Fiber Channel (Fibre Channel, FC) is widely used. In order to preserve the existing investment and simplify the layout and wiring of the data center, the industry proposes a solution for deploying Fiber Channel over lossless Ethernet, that is, Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE). [0003] The connection type supported by FC is point-to-point connection. In order for FCoE to run the FC protocol on the Ethernet, it is necessary to establish a point-to-point connection to the device supporting FCoE on the Ethernet; wherein, the device supporting FCoE includes an FCoE endpoint device (FCoE Node, ENode) and an FCoE transponder (FCoE Forwarder, FCF). The International Information Technology Standards Committee ...
