Abstract

The present application provides a method and device for configuring an access switch in an OpenStack environment. The method includes: checking, through a local virtual switch, whether there is a port number of a local service port in a preset target bridge; The port number of the port, enable the link layer discovery protocol preconfigured on the service port based on the port number, and obtain the link topology information of the access switch that has enabled the link layer discovery protocol; topology information, and deliver the configuration information of the current VXLAN network to the access switch, so as to complete the configuration operation on the access switch. In the technical solution of the present application, the server can automatically configure the access switch as a VTEP device, which greatly reduces labor costs.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for configuring an access switch in an OpenStack environment. Background technique [0002] OpenStack is an open source cloud computing management platform project, which is composed of several main components to complete specific tasks. The goal is to provide a cloud computing management platform that is simple to implement, massively scalable, rich, and standardized. Since OpenStack involves a large number of terminal devices, networks such as VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network, virtual local area network), VXLAN (Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network, scalable virtual local area network) are usually used as the underlying network deployment method. [0003] When VXLAN is used as the underlying network deployment method, the Open vSwitch (virtual switch) software in the server can generally be used as the VTEP (Virtual Tunnel End Po...
