Problems solved by technology

However, the configuration, management, and operation and maintenance costs of link bundling are high, and the flexibility and scalability are poor, and often require network equipment from the same manufacturer; the method of re-converging the network to calculate new routes requires a lot of calculation time for fault repair , resulting in a greater impact on the upper-layer virtual network

Embodiment 1

[0066] In the network link fault processing method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the route calculation that requires a large amount of calculation time has been prepared before the fault occurs, and multiple non-overlapping links are calculated as backup links. The probability of non-overlapping backup links is very low. Once a failure occurs, there are generally available backup links that can be switched, which saves a lot of calculation time for fault recovery, and makes the upper-layer virtual network unaffected or reduced. minimum. The method can be executed by a controller.

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a device for network link fault processing and a controller, which are applied to a software defined network SDN, and relates to the technical field of communication. The method comprises the steps of obtaining a pre-stored standby link corresponding to a current link when the current link of the SDN is in fault; selecting a target link from the standby link; and switching the current link to the target link. According to the method and the device for network link fault processing and the controller, relatively low configuration, management as well as operation and maintenance costs can be realized without link binding, and relatively good flexibility and expandability can be obtained. As it is unnecessary to converge the network again during a link transmission fault, a plenty of calculation time taken for fault repair is saved, the processing speed of the network link fault is improved, and the influence on an upper virtual network is accordingly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communications, in particular to a network link fault processing method, device and controller. Background technique [0002] Network virtualization technology supports the virtualization of multiple virtual networks on the physical network, allowing different users to share or exclusively occupy slices of network resources, thereby improving the utilization of network resources and realizing an elastic network. SDN (Software Defined Network, Software Defined Network) is an innovative network architecture of Emulex network and a way to realize network virtualization. Its core technology, OpenFlow, separates the control plane of network equipment from the data plane, thereby realizing network traffic. The flexible control of the network makes the network more intelligent as a pipeline. The emergence of SDN technology makes network virtualization easier to implement, with better flexibility and sca...
