Network configuration switch and network configuration method

Abstract

The invention provides a network configuration switch and a switch network configuration method. The network configuration switch comprises an information transceiving component, a bus component and acontroller module. A first user side port, a serdes chip module, a DHCP information message component and a rapidio switch chip are set in the information transceiving component. An index statisticsmodule, a bus connection component and a layer 2 network marking module are set in the bus component. According to the switch network configuration method, the problem occurring when an existing switch carries out network configuration can be solved well.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention specifically relates to a network configuration switch and a switch network configuration method. Background technique [0002] In a communication system, a Layer 2 network refers to a network that uses a media access control (English: media access control, referred to as: MAC) address to address and forward packets, for example, it can be a virtual local area network (English: Virtual Local Area Network, referred to as: VLAN ), virtual extensible local area network (English: Virtual eXtensible LAN, referred to as: VXLAN), etc.; when configuring a layer-2 network in the prior art, the network administrator first manually adds the user-side port of the access switch to the layer-2 network, and then according to Network extension protocol, the access switch can extend the layer-2 network to the first network-side device directly connected to the access switch through the network-side port, and then the first network-side device can expand t...

Problems solved by technology

Wherein, the network extension protocol may include Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (English: Generic Attribute Registration Protocol, abbreviated: GARP) VLAN Registration Protocol (English: GARP VLAN Registration Protocol, abbreviated: GVRP), Border Gateway Protocol (English: Border Gateway Protocol, abbreviated: : BGP), etc.; because the prior art requires the network administrator to manually add the user-side port of the access switch to the layer-2 network when configuring the layer-2 network, and the access switch cannot automatically add the user-side port to the layer-2 network, thus The configuration workload of the network administrator is heavy, and it is difficult to meet the needs of automated network configuration
