AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The centralized architecture of existing SPN products is difficult to meet the high bandwidth requirements of 5G networks, especially in the network construction of access ring, aggregation ring and core ring, where the data processing capability of the main control board is limited.

Method used

A distributed architecture is adopted, connecting the main control board with multiple service boards. Each service board has a corresponding processing chip and switching chip. Cross-service forwarding is achieved through the main control board. Board identification information and port identification information are added and removed to achieve the forwarding of the target service.

Benefits of technology

It expanded the overall processing capacity of the target business, met the application requirements of high bandwidth, and improved the data processing capacity of the 5G network.

Abstract

The application provides a FlexE service forwarding method and system based on a distributed architecture. A first service board card adds board card identification information and port identification information of a target service to original packets from a first port to obtain first packets of the target service, and sends the first packets to a master board card. The master board card receives the first packets, and forwards the first packets to a second service board card according to the board card identification information and the port identification information. The second service board card receives the first packets, processes the first packets into second packets, and then sends the second packets to a second port. The application can alleviate the problem that an SPN product in the related art is difficult to meet a large bandwidth requirement due to the use of a centralized architecture.
