The embodiments of the invention provide a message transmission method and apparatus. The method comprises the following steps: receiving a message sent by a first server, and identifying the message; if it is identified that the message is an Ethernet frame carrying remote direct memory access (RDMA), modifying the Ethernet type identifier of the Ethernet frame to be a value of RoCEv2; and setting the message to have top priority. According to the embodiments of the invention, the message sent by the first server is received, if the message is the Ethernet frame carrying the RDMA, the Ethernet type identifier of the Ethernet frame is modified to be the value of the RoCEv2, and the message is set to have the top priority, such that the message of each RoCEv2 is not lost, and the transmission reliability of the RDMA is improved.

The invention discloses a packet receiving method and device of the network port of an equipment internal processor and relates to communication technology. The device comprises a packet receiving hardware module, a packet receiving thread module and a business module, wherein the packet receiving hardware module delivers received data packet messages to corresponding VCPU queues according to preset configuration; the packet receiving thread module receives the data packet messages binding to the VCPU queues, determines the priority of the data packet messages according to the Ethernet types of the received data packet messages, and delivers the received data packet messages to corresponding public queues according to the preset correspondence of the priority of the data packet messages and the priority of the public queues; the business module reads the data packet messages in the public queues according to priority of the public queues. By the packet receiving method and device, the performance bottleneck of packet receiving in the prior art is solved, and important messages can be processed first by queue priority.

Apparatus and methods are provided for LWA PDU routing. In one novel aspect, LTE PDU packets are routed through a WLAN AP to a UE by encapsulation of the data packets. An adaption layer encapsulates the whole packet as an Ethernet frame by appending the Ethernet MAC header to the payload. In other embodiments, the adaption layer encapsulates LTE PDU as a GRE packet, and configures VLAN for WLAN AP. In another novel aspect, the LTE PDU is identified by at least one of methods comprising the EtherType value, the source address, the GRE header, and the GTP header. In yet another novel aspect, the LTE PDU is forwarded by the MAC address, by the GRE tunnel configuration, or by the GTP tunnel configuration.

The invention discloses an iOAM information processing method. The method comprises the following steps: analyzing an EtherType Ethernet type field of a message; according to the EtherType field, judging the effective load type of the MAC payload; wherein the MAC payload type comprises a data message and an iOAM (Internet Operation Administration and Maintenance) message; wherein the predefined iOAM message is indicated by taking an EtherType field value as a preset EtherType value, and the iOAM information corresponding to the iOAM message is packaged according to a predefined MCA-iOAM packaging format; and when the MAC payload is the iOAM message, analyzing and processing the iOAM message. The invention further discloses an iOAM information processing device and a computer readable storage medium. According to the invention, the transmission efficiency of the iOAM information is improved.

The invention discloses a method and a device for processing a 1588 message and communication equipment. The method comprises the following steps of: identifying an original EtherType of the received 1588 message; modifying the original EtherType according to a preset mapping mode; and sending the 1588 message with the modified EtherType to a packet processor. By the invention, the problem that the packet processor in the prior art cannot identify the EtherType of the 1588 message is solved, and an effect of making the packet processor capable of identifying the EtherType of the 1588 message is achieved.

Apparatus and methods are provided for user-plane LWA PDU routing. In one novel aspect, LTE PDU packets are routed through a WLAN AP to a UE by encapsulation of the data packets. In one embodiment, a bridge/VLAN architecture is used. The UE identifies one or more Ethernet Frames received the WLAN interface as containing the PDCP PDUs by decoding the EtherType. In another embodiment, the WLAN terminated tunneling is used by decoding the EtherType of indicating the PDCP type. In another novel aspect, an UE-terminated tunneling is created. In one embodiment, the IP tunneling is used. In another embodiment, the GRE tunneling is used. The GRE header contains a KEY field to identify the packets as being the LWA packets. In yet another embodiment, the IPSec tunneling is used. The SPI of the header is used to identify the packets as being the LWA data packets.

The invention discloses a landmark separation message forwarding method and device, a switch chip and a storage medium. The landmark separation message forwarding method comprises the steps that S1, asystem is initialized, and a message is received; s2, acquiring a message entry port, and querying a port enable bit of a landmark separation register; s3, analyzing the Ethernet type of the Ethernetmessage; s4, judging a port enable bit value of the landmark separation register; s5, judging whether the type of the Ethernet message is equal to the Ethernet type of the standard separation messageregister or not, if not, forwarding the message according to a traditional message, and if yes, entering the step S6; and S6, separating the message and forwarding the message according to the standard. According to the invention, a user can flexibly configure the support of the landmark separation message according to the specific usage scenario of the switch chip, so that the adaptability of the ASIC chip is enhanced; the matching range of the recognition length can be 1-128bit, so that the expansibility is high; in addition, the ASIC chip supports the traditional message and the standard separation message at the same time, so that the additional cost is reduced.
