Abstract

The invention discloses a label distribution method, device, system and network equipment, belonging to the field of network communication. The label allocation method includes: generating a first label switching path for the first forwarding device to the second forwarding device, the first label switching path passing through the third forwarding device; generating an FTN for the first forwarding device; generating an FTN for the third forwarding device Generate an ILM; send the FTN, the ILM, and the first label switched path to the first forwarding device and the third forwarding device. The label distribution device includes a path generation module, an FTN generation module, an ILM generation module and a sending module. The present invention distributes the same label to all forwarding devices located on the same label switching path, and in the process of data packet forwarding, the intermediate label switching router does not perform label pop-up / press-in operation after receiving the data packet, but It directly forwards the data packets, which reduces the label allocation time and improves the forwarding efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of network communication, in particular to a label distribution method, device, system and network equipment. Background technique [0002] MPLS (Multi-ProtocolLabelSwitching, Multi-Protocol Label Switching) is a protocol proposed to improve the forwarding speed of routers. Each forwarding device (such as a router or switch) in an MPLS network usually includes a controller at the control plane and a physical forwarding device at the forwarding plane. The forwarding device uses the assigned label to quickly forward the received data packet according to a unique path. The path formed during the label assignment process is a label switching path (LSP, LabelSwitchPath). [0003] In the existing label allocation method, each controller located downstream of the label switching path assigns different labels to the controller located adjacent upstream on the label switching path based on forwarding equivalence classes (FEC,...
