Bandwidth control method and related equipment

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention disclose a bandwidth control method and related equipment. The bandwidth control method comprises the following steps of monitoring a working condition parameter of a first processor in network equipment, wherein the network equipment comprises at least two processors; and when monitoring that the working condition parameter of the first processor conforms to a preset first current-limiting mode switching condition, switching centralized current limiting on a first type of data stream input into the network equipment through the first processor to distributed current limiting on the first type of data stream input into the network equipment through at least two processors. The technical scheme provided by the embodiments of the invention is beneficial for improving the bandwidth limitation precision of flow of the complete network equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a bandwidth control method and related equipment. Background technique [0002] With the development of the Internet, various network applications emerge in an endless stream, constantly eroding network bandwidth. In many scenarios (such as enterprise networks), it is necessary to limit the impact of irrelevant traffic on normal services. For example, in enterprise networks, video and other traffic is restricted to ensure the normal operation of financial data traffic. Therefore, bandwidth limitation technology emerges as the times require. [0003] For example, bandwidth limiting technologies are widely used in network devices such as firewall devices at present. For example, the existing firewall device is mainly a distributed firewall device, wherein there are multiple processors in the distributed firewall device, and the multiple processors in the distributed firewall...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] During the research and practice of the prior art, the inventors of the present invention found that, in existing network devices such as distributed firewall devices and gateways, each processor independently limits the bandwidth of input traffic in parallel, so It is difficult to achieve a more accurate bandwidth limit on the traffic of the whole machine, especially in some scenarios where the input traffic changes frequently
