Embodiment Construction

[0039] According to the OSPF standard, when a router needs to import a route obtained through a non-OSPF protocol into the OSPF network, it generates a Type 5 LSA based on the obtained route and sends the generated Type 5 LSA to the adjacent router, which will cause subsequent reporting. Routing loops may occur during file forwarding.

[0040] In order to avoid the above routing loop problem, the prior art proposes a scheme of artificially configuring black hole routing. For example, the router is only allowed to forward the received route of the protocol with a lower priority value (higher priority) through the advertisement message of the protocol with a higher priority value (lower priority), for example, allowing the Type 5 LSAs (priority value 150) forward BGP routes (priority value 140), and vice versa. Therefore, a static route needs to be manually configured on R2, and the mask length of the static route is less than 32. For example, a blackhole route 5.5.5.0 / 24 with ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and relevant equipment for introducing an external route to an OSPF (Open Shortest Path First Interior Gateway Protocol) network, which are used for solving the traditional problem of routing loop while subsequent message forwarding, which is caused by introducing an external route to an OSPF network. The method comprises the following steps of: determining whether the priority of a route obtained through a non-OSPF protocol is higher than the priority of a preset OSPF internal route by a first router; if so, converting the obtained route into an OSPF internalroute; and introducing the route to the OSPF network of the first router.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer networks, in particular to a method for introducing external routes into an OSPF network and a device for introducing external routes into an OSPF network. Background technique [0002] A network constructed based on an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF, Open Shortest Path First) protocol is called an OSPF network. In an OSPF network, each router can exchange advertisement messages with other routers based on OSPF protocol packets to update its own routing table. When updating the routing table, the first router in the OSPF network notifies other routers adjacent to the first router in the OSPF network of the routes obtained through non-OSPF protocols such as direct routing protocols and static routing protocols, so that they can learn about the routing table. The process of routing and updating the routing table is called the process of "importing external routes" in the OSPF network, where the ro...
