RRPP configuring method, system and device

Abstract

The invention discloses an RRPP configuration method, a system and an apparatus. The method comprises the following steps that a transmission node receives messages from a host node, stores RRPP attribute information of the port of the host node and forwards the messages to the next node of the looped network; when the time of receiving messages from the port of the host node by the transmission node reaches a preset value, the RRPP attribute information of the port of the transmission node can be obtained according to the RRPP attribute information of the port of the host node; the transmission node optimizes the RRPP attribute information of the port of itself and obtains the RRPP attribute information of the transmission node and the RRPP attribute information of the port of the transmission node. According to the invention, through automatic configuration of RRPP attribute of transmission nodes, network administrators who appoint nodes and RRPP attribute of ports are needless, therefore an RRPP loop is established quickly, efficiently and correctly, the operating efficiency is improved and the probability of configuration errors is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to an RRPP configuration method, system and equipment. Background technique [0002] In network planning and actual networking applications, the ring network technology is usually used to improve the reliability of the network. The ring network technology realizes mutual communication by connecting some network devices together through the shape of a ring. In order to avoid broadcast storms in the ring network, STP (Spanning Tree Protocol, Spanning Tree Protocol) ring protection mechanism or RRPP (Rapid Ring Protection Protocol, fast ring protection protocol) ring protection mechanism is adopted to avoid broadcast storms, wherein, A broadcast storm means that too many broadcast data packets consume a large amount of network bandwidth, resulting in the failure of normal data packets to be transmitted in the network. [0003] In practical applications, the convergence ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0008] The configuration of the RRPP ring is very complicated. The port belonging to the RRPP ring on each node needs the administrator to specify the attributes of the port, whether it is the primary port or the secondary port, and whether it is a public port or an edge port. For each node, the administrator also needs to specify Is it an edge node or an auxiliary edge node

When there are many nodes in the RRPP ring and the network administrator specifies them one by one, the configuration workload is relatively large, and configuration errors may occur, resulting in failure of the entire RRPP ring network.
