Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a software-defined network, nodes and a path calculation method and device. The method comprises the steps that candidate nodes of a next-hop node are determined according to a topology network; constraint parameters of the candidate nodes are acquired; and target nodes of the next-hop node are selected from the candidate nodes according to constraint conditions and the constraint parameters of the candidate nodes. According to the method, the constraint conditions are introduced, the constraint conditions such as the network layers of the nodes can be set according to actual application to constrain path calculation, the condition that paths not according with original communication network node work are generated is avoided, configuration is easy, various path calculation requirements can be well met, existing operator networks are compatible, and the problem that in an existing SDN network path calculation method, paths not meeting the actual traffic forwarding requirement cannot be excluded is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a software-defined network, a node, and a path calculation method and device. Background technique [0002] SDN (software defined network, software defined network) improves the programmability of the network through a centralized controller, the separation of the control plane and the forwarding plane and the characteristics of open programmability have greatly promoted the development of the next generation Internet; For the current operator network, SDN can greatly reduce the complexity and flexibility of operation and maintenance, but there are many problems in the integration of the SDN network and the current operator network. [0003] Such as figure 1 The schematic diagram of the operation of the operator's network is shown. The operator's network includes the access layer, the aggregation layer, and the core layer. Each layer corresponds to different types of equipment ...
