Problems solved by technology

[0003] The first method is to collect topology manually. After adding a new device, manually input a command to initiate a topology discovery request to discover the network topology. Manager's workload
[0004] The second is to collect topology at regular intervals. If the interval is too short, it will increase the CPU load of the switch and the traffic load of the network. If the interval is too long, it will not be able to reflect the changes of the network in time.

Embodiment Construction

[0020] The accompanying drawings below further describe in detail the implementation of the topology collection method in cluster management proposed by the present invention.

[0021] Such as figure 1 Shown is a schematic diagram of the application environment of the method of the present invention.

[0022] In the cluster management system, there are four roles of command switch, member switch, candidate switch and independent switch. Generally, only the command switch needs to obtain network changes in time, so the method of the present invention is aimed at the situation where topology collection needs to be performed on the command machine , but if necessary, this method is also applicable to the situation of performing topology collection on other switches, and this modification also belongs to the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.

[0023] Such as figure 2 Shown: is the processing flowchart of the method of the present invention. On the switch...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for collecting topology in colony management, which comprises the following steps: an exchanger in a colony monitors whether a neighboring list is changed; under the condition that the exchanger with the neighboring list changed is judged to be a colony commander, the processing of topology collection is carried out; and under the condition that the exchanger withthe neighboring list changed is judged to be a colony member machine, a unicast topology change notification message is sent to the colony commander, and the colony commander receives the message andthen carries out the processing of topology collection. The method relieves the workload of network management personnel and improves the utilization rate of network resource.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of data communication, in particular to a method for topology collection in cluster management. Background technique [0002] With the development of Ethernet technology, Ethernet switches are more and more widely used, but due to the large number of Ethernet switch devices (especially low-end devices), the management of devices has become a difficult problem, so the cluster management (group management) is proposed. ) solution. As an important part of the cluster management protocol family, topology collection can obtain the topology of the entire network and plays a very important role in the process of cluster management. However, in actual use, when the cluster has been established successfully and the cluster management command machine needs to obtain the network topology changes in a timely manner, the two methods currently used for topology collection have some defects: [0003] The first method is to collect...
