Abstract

The present application discloses a method for switching virtual Internet Protocol addresses. The method is applied in a virtual IP system, and the virtual IP system includes: a control center, several physical machines connected to the control center through a cloud network, and the physical A virtual machine VM and a virtual switch connected to the VM are provided on the machine, and the method includes: sending the received first address resolution protocol ARP mapping message for mapping the virtual IP address to the VM address to the control center, to Make the control center determine the VM corresponding to the VM address as the master VM using the virtual IP address; send a notification message that the control center determines the master VM to the VM in the virtual IP system, so as to be connected with the VM in the virtual IP system Data associated with the virtual IP address is forwarded to the master VM. By applying the embodiment of the present application, it is not necessary for the user to control the active-standby relationship of the VM, and IP address drift on the cloud network can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of network communication, in particular to a method and device for switching virtual Internet protocol addresses. Background technique [0002] In the physical network of the prior art, IP (Internet Protocol, Internet Protocol) address drift refers to that in a dual-machine backup environment, using a shared virtual IP address, the peer end cannot perceive the IP address of the local server during server switching. A technique where the address changes. In IP address drifting, the physical server can declare its own IP address through ARP (Address Resolution Protocol, Address Resolution Protocol), and use this IP address to provide services, limited by the number of ports on the physical server, usually the range of IP address drifting is not More than a hundred physical servers. [0003] In the cloud network, the VIP (Virtual IP, virtual IP) address used by the physical machine is allocated and ...
