Service function circulation arrangement basic platform and method of intelligent network service function chain

Abstract

The invention provides a service function circulation arrangement basic platform and method of an intelligent network service function chain. The platform comprises: an entry service classifier used for analyzing data packets to obtain a network service function subordinate to each data packet and marking a corresponding network service function label on each data packet; an entrance scheduling module which is used for formulating a scheduling scheme of each data packet according to the network service function label carried by each data packet; a switching unit which is used for transferring each data packet among different network service function modules according to the scheduling scheme; an exit scheduling module which is used for arranging the processed and circulated data packets and then outputting the processed and circulated data packets to an exit service classifier; an exit service classifier which is used for transmitting the arranged data packet to an upper-layer internet user according to the network service function label carried by the data packet; and a control unit which is used for controlling other functional modules in the service circulation arrangement basic platform structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of computer networks, in particular to a basic platform and method for service function circulation and arrangement of intelligent network service function chains. Background technique [0002] With the rapid expansion and development of the Internet, the current network architecture and service configuration have become "rigid" to a certain extent, making it difficult to adapt to the rapid development and deployment of future network services. Network Functions Virtualization (NetworkFunctions Virtualization, NFV) technology is considered to be an important emerging technology to solve the challenges faced by the current network. NFV is committed to separating network functions from physical proprietary hardware, enabling network function virtualization to run on a single, general-purpose physical platform in the form of software, thereby reducing or even completely replacing proprietary hardware de...
