Embodiment Construction

[0050] The MAC learning-based virtual circuit switching method of the present invention will be specifically described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0051] Such as figure 1As shown, switch 4 has three ports: port A is connected to switch 1, port B is connected to switch 2, and port C is connected to switch 3. In addition, switch 4 has a port D connected to the switching network. There are three virtual circuits established, namely : Port A+VLAN ID1←---→Port D+VLAN ID4, B+VLAN ID2←---→Port D+VLAN ID4 and C+VLAN ID3←---→Port D+VLAN ID4, due to the connection with port D The VLAN IDs of the connected networks are tense, and only ID4 is assigned to the network connected to switch 4, resulting in the VLAN ID4 of port D corresponding to three VLAN IDs of ports A, B, and C. The present invention is to solve how to perform virtual circuit switching in this case.

[0052] For the convenience of illustration, suppose port A and VLAN ID is ID1 to switch port D ...

Abstract

A method for exchanging virtual circuit based on MAC learning includes judging whether it is necessary to start up port MAC learning function or not , learning MAC when message is received , setting up mapping relation of entry port and its VLAN ID to exit port and its VLAN ID , setting up correlation of port and its VLAN ID to MAC if message learning MAC is received at entry port , retransmitting message according to said mapping relation for message not required to learn MAC at entry port , retransmitting message according to exit port and its VLAN ID confirmed by said correlation for message required to learn MAC .

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the switching technology of the two-layer bearer network, in particular to a virtual circuit switching method based on MAC learning. Background technique [0002] In the Ethernet virtual circuit switching network, multiple virtual switches exchange packets through incoming ports and incoming VLANIDs, and establish virtual circuits between the source LAN and the destination LAN. [0003] At present, in the IEEE802.1Q standard, the length of a VLAN ID is only 12 bits, that is to say, the entire Layer 2 network can only support 4096 global VLANs, which is far from meeting the requirements of the operating network. [0004] Due to the complexity of MAN planning, the links between the source LAN and the destination LAN may have different VLAN IDs or the VLAN IDs are tense. [0005] While using the incoming port and incoming VLAN ID for packet exchange, the VLAN ID is also replaced. This method solves the problem that the VLAN ID of...
