Method and equipment for tracing packet

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for tracing messages and a device thereof, which more particularly comprise that: template insertion points are arranged among all phrases during the forwarding process of the message; preset tracing templates independent from a processing unit of message forwarding are invoked in the designated template insertion points; the message that enters the designated template insertion points are matched with the tracing templates; the message that is successfully matched is traced; the tracing templates are used for recording tracing conditions. The embodiment of the invention realizes message tracing by invoking the tracing templates in the designated template insertion points and modifies the configuration of the tracing templates at any time, thus leading the tracing operation to the message to be separated from the message forwarding process, realizing the dynamic tracing of the message and improving the flexibility of tracing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network communication, in particular to a method and equipment for tracking messages. Background technique [0002] IP (Internet Protocol, Internet Protocol) technology, as the key technology to realize the integration of computer Internet, traditional telephone network and cable TV network, is the development trend of future transmission technology. In order to meet the higher requirements of real-time application services such as voice services and video services based on IP technology on parameters such as delay and QoS (Quality of Service) of the IP network, and improve the quality of the real-time application services, it is necessary to optimize the IP network Real-time monitoring, such as tracking packets. [0003] At present, the tracking of packets in the IP network usually adopts the following implementation methods: [0004] Enable or disable the packet tracking function by setting the status...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0011] In the prior art, the operation of tracking messages is part of the message forwarding process, and the tracking conditions appear as a part of the code segment in the message forwarding processing unit (ie, the message forwarding program). If the tracking conditions need to be changed, for example To add or delete tracking conditions, the code of the message forwarding program needs to be modified. Therefore, the existing technology has poor scalability and cannot flexibly track messages at any stage in the message forwarding process.
