Embodiment Construction

[0054] Please refer to figure 1 , is a schematic diagram of networking for virtual network management in the prior art. Generally speaking, there are multiple hypervisors with different architectures in the data center to manage and control VMs to provide computing services to users, and heterogeneous hypervisors are managed by different hypervisor managers. For example, hypervisor manager 1 manages hypervisor1, hypervisor Manager 2 manages Hypervisor 2 . The forwarding engine related to providing network services is generally installed in the Hypervisor, called vSwitch. Since the vSwitch goes online in different ways on different Hypervisors, different SDN controllers are required in traditional data centers to manage heterogeneous Hypervisors. VMs in a hypervisor can usually interact through the vSwitch corresponding to the hypervisor, and each vSwitch can connect to multiple VMs.

[0055] However, when VM1 under vSwitch1 sends a message to VM2 under vSwitch2, since the h...

Abstract

The invention provides a virtual network management method and device. The method comprises a step of respectively creating a first second Domain and a second Domain for a first Hypervisor manager and a second Hypervisor manager, a step of creating topological management information which comprises virtual network topology information where a first VM and a second VM are located and preset first configuration information and second configuration information, a step of associating the topological management information with the first Domain and the second Domain, and then issuing the first configuration information and the second configuration information in the topological management information to the first Hypervisor manager and the second Hypervisor manager respectively, wherein the first configuration information is used for a first vSwitch to guide the message forwarding in the first VM, and the second configuration information is used for a second vSwitch to guide the message forwarding in the second VM.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communications, in particular to a virtual network management method and device. Background technique [0002] At present, there will be many heterogeneous hypervisors in the data center to manage different VMs (Virtual Manufacturing, virtual machines), and these Hypervisors and the vSwitch (Virtual Switch, virtual switch) responsible for the forwarding work of the virtual network in the Hypervisor are usually composed of Different Hypervisor managers are managed. Because vSwitches managed by different hypervisor managers will go online in different ways, different hypervisor managers will be managed by different SDN Controllers or SDN Controller clusters, and because different SDN Controllers cannot perceive each other's overlay network, resulting in VMs on heterogeneous hypervisors cannot communicate directly through Overlay. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of this, the present in...
