Distributed network topology exploration and route distribution system and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a distributed network topology exploration and route distribution system and method. The system comprises a main sub-network management and a plurality of sub-network management agents; the main sub-network management is used for equally distributing all network nodes including a switch and a network card to different sub-network management agents in a dynamic mode; summarizing data collected by each sub-network management agent, and computing a routing table according to a routing algorithm; sending a switch routing table distribution command to the sub-network management agents at the same time; and the sub-network management agents are used for collecting topologies of respective monitoring objects and sending the information to the main sub-network management. According to the distributed network topology exploration and route distribution system provided by the invention, distributed topology exploration and route distribution are achieved through a distributed sub-network management mode, so that the network topology exploration and route distribution time is greatly shortened, the efficiency of dynamic exploration and route distribution of large-scaleinterconnection network management is improved and the availability of a network management system is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of high-speed interconnection networks, in particular to a distributed network topology detection and route distribution system and method. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of high-performance computing, big data, cloud computing and other technologies, the scale of high-speed interconnection networks is getting larger and larger, and its scale can reach hundreds of thousands of nodes. The key technical difficulty for efficient management of ultra-large-scale interconnected network systems lies in the speed of network exploration and routing table distribution; the larger the network size, the longer the time-consuming for network exploration and routing distribution. When the scale exceeds hundreds of thousands of nodes, conventional network exploration and route distribution will take tens of minutes, making the network management software run very slowly, greatly reducing the availability an...
