Message forwarding method and network equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a message forwarding method and network equipment. The network equipment comprises a plurality of interface boards, more than one screen board and more than one data analysis board, wherein the data analysis board comprises a data acquisition unit and a plurality of data analysis units, the data acquisition unit comprises a plurality of interconnection ports which are correspondingly connected with the plurality of data analysis units respectively, and a target aggregation port comprising a plurality of interconnection ports is created on the data acquisition unit. The data acquisition unit receives a mirror image message and a target aggregation port identifier, and selects an interconnection port corresponding to a service flow to which the mirror image message belongs from a plurality of interconnection ports of the target aggregation port indicated by the target aggregation port identifier according to the first communication feature information of the mirrorimage message; and sends the mirror image message through the selected interconnection port. The data analysis unit connected with the selected interconnection port analyzes the received mirror imagemessage, so that the mirror image messages belonging to the same service flow are analyzed by the same data analysis unit, and therefore, the accuracy of an analysis result can be ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of communications, and in particular, to a message forwarding method and network equipment. Background technique [0002] In related technologies, network devices (such as switches, routers, etc.) are generally only used for data forwarding, but cannot implement analysis and calculation of user traffic, and their application scenarios are relatively limited. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of this, the purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a packet forwarding method and network equipment, so as to at least partially improve the above problems. [0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present disclosure adopts the following technical solutions: [0005] In a first aspect, the present disclosure provides a message forwarding method, which is applied to a network device, and the network device includes a plurality of interface boards, more than one network board, and ...
