Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to network communication technology, in particular to a method for realizing port binding in a distributed system using a network processor. Background technique
[0002] In network communication, the port bundling function is an important function of switches and routers. It can aggregate multiple Ethernet links into a logical link, thereby providing wider link bandwidth.
[0003] In the case of port bundling, when a packet is sent through the bundled port, the system needs to select a port from the bundled group, and the result of the selection should meet the following two requirements: (1) the same flow (specific source and specific destination) application-specific data packets) should be sent from the same port, so as to ensure the order of the same flow data frame (this is necessary in the case of a LAN with a layer 2 switch, because the LAN communication program generally does not consider data frame disorder of). (2) Th...
