A priority-based data transmission method and device

Abstract

The invention discloses a priority-based data transmission method and equipment. The method includes: ED obtains priority, bandwidth and MAC address corresponding to other ED connection servers; ED records the MAC address and priority in the priority information table and bandwidth, and record the use of bandwidth as a specified value in the corresponding relationship; ED obtains the destination MAC address of the data, matches the MAC address recorded in the priority information table by the destination MAC address, and obtains the corresponding priority , bandwidth and use bandwidth; when the obtained use bandwidth is less than the obtained bandwidth, the ED sets the priority as the obtained priority in the IP header of the encapsulated data, and sends the encapsulated data . In the embodiment of the present invention, it is ensured that the traffic of important servers is forwarded in time.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of communications, and in particular, to a priority-based data transmission method and device. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the Internet, the geographical span of the network is getting wider and wider. In order to provide better services, users usually deploy data centers in different places, and virtual machines can be freely migrated between these data centers to achieve load sharing and high-speed Reliability: Since the virtual machine migration process is transparent to users and the IP address cannot be changed, it is required to implement Layer 2 network interconnection between data centers in different places. For this reason, the EVI (Ethernet Virtualization Interconnection) network is proposed. [0003] Such as figure 1 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the EVI network network. By dividing the overall network into a core network (public...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] In the prior art, since the EVI network is deployed in different places in the data center, the servers in the data center have the same priority, that is, the traffic transmitted by all servers on the public network has the same priority, so once data congestion occurs, the traffic of important servers It will not be guaranteed first. In the case of traffic attacks, the traffic of important servers cannot be forwarded in time, which will lead to unstable operation of the data center
