A link training method and apparatus, which relate to the technical field of communications. The method comprises: starting a link training process for a link, wherein the link comprises at least one channel; receiving a first control frame, wherein the first control frame comprises a first training sequence; on the basis of the first control frame, locking a
clock of the at least one channel, and sending a first logic layer management packet, wherein the first logic layer management packet indicates that the
clock of the at least one channel has been successfully locked; receiving a second control frame, wherein the second control frame comprises a second training sequence, which comprises a pseudo-
random sequence; on the basis of the second control frame, executing
equalization training of the at least one channel, and sending a second logic layer management packet, wherein the second logic layer management packet indicates that the
equalization training of the at least one channel has succeeded; receiving a third control frame, wherein the third control frame comprises a third training sequence, which comprises a pseudo-
random sequence, and the second training sequence is different from the third training sequence; and on the basis of the third control frame, locking a data boundary of the at least one channel, and sending a third logic layer management packet, wherein the third logic layer management packet indicates a channel that has been successfully locked and / or a channel that has failed to be locked among the at least one channel.
