Problems solved by technology

In the data center network, in order to ensure reliability, redundant lines are often used. At this time, it is easy for ARP to flood out from an SDN switch, go around and be forwarded back to the SDN switch again from another port.
If it is not suppressed, loop forwarding is easy to occur, which greatly affects network performance

Embodiment Construction

[0015] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific examples.

[0016] see figure 1 with 2 , a flood suppression method of ARP protocol under SDN, its specific steps are as follows:

[0017] Step 1. Preparatory stage

[0018] The system is initialized, and the SDN switch forwarding control module installs default flow entries for all SDN switches, and all SDN switches report the new network packets that do not match the flow table to the SDN controller one by one.

[0019] Step 2, buffer table recording and query phase

[0020] A buffer table for ARP requests is added in the SDN controller, and each record in the buffer table consists of source IP, destination IP, data path number of the SDN switch, and current timestamp. By querying the buffer table, it can be known in which SDN switches the ARP request packet has been forwarded....

Abstract

The invention discloses a flooding suppression method for an ARP under an SDN, and the method comprises the following steps: adding a buffer table of an ARP request in an SDN controller, and recording source IP and destination IP information of an ARP request packet and switches in which the packet is forwarded; when an ARP new request packet enters the SDN switch, enabling the switch to upload the packet to the controller, enabling the controller to look up the table: if the table entries related to the ARP packet are found, determining that the ARP packet is forwarded in the recent period, that is, the ARP packet is not forwarded any more, so the data storm problem caused by ARP flooding is restrained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer network and system security, in particular to a method for suppressing flooding of the ARP protocol under SDN. Background technique [0002] Software Defined Networking (Software Defined Networking, abbreviated as "SDN") is a new network innovation architecture proposed by the team of Professor Nick McKeown of Stanford University in the United States. It belongs to intelligent network. In SDN, Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is used to realize the mapping from IP address to MAC address, that is, to query the MAC address corresponding to the target IP. The prerequisite for two hosts to communicate is to know the MAC addresses of each other's hosts. When the host receives an ARP request, it will look up the table in its own ARP cache table, and update the mapping in the ARP request packet to the cache table. When the host receives an ARP reply, it will update the mapping in the ARP reply packe...
