Method, device and system for achieving flow management

Abstract

The invention relates to a method, device and system for achieving flow management. The achieving method includes: building a corresponding relation between user's demands and external devices; distributing hardware addresses (MAC addresses) relative to the external devices for all the external devices, and performing corresponding binding on switchboard ports; and receiving messages, and sending the messages to the external devices corresponding to the messages in a mirror image or redirection mode. A switchboard is added between an information transfer module (ITM) device and the external devices so as to enable the ITM to be capable of being connected with more external devices, and therefore the method, device and system for achieving the flow management can perform different processing on different flow, and simultaneously solves the problem that performances of the external device are insufficient and density of the ITM is not enough. Furthermore, the MAC addresses are bound to different ports through the switchboard, the method, device and system for achieving the flow management achieves various different requirements of a user correspond to the external devices with various different functions and sends the messages in the mirror image or redirection mode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of Internet control management, in particular to a flow management implementation method, equipment and system. Background technique [0002] In recent years, a new technology capable of managing traffic—Internet Traffic Management (ITM)—has emerged. ITM is an intelligent system with load balancing function, which can properly manage the flow in and out of the network. ITM quickly and efficiently distributes network traffic across a group of servers or devices running the same or different applications while maintaining a single form factor. Therefore, the ITM can receive all traffic entering and leaving the network, analyze the content, and then direct it to the path or server that is most appropriate for that network traffic. [0003] figure 1 It is an architecture diagram of a traffic management system in the prior art, including user equipment, ITM equipment, external equipment, routers, firewalls and other equ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The implementation method, device and system can solve the problem of insufficient network port density of the ITM device, so that the ITM device can be connected to multiple external devices at the same time, and the functions of each external device can be the same or different, thereby realizing various needs of users Can be mirrored or redirected to network devices corresponding to various needs
