Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the current management of the VCF system, since the communication between the CB device and the PE device is implemented through a private protocol, and the PE device is managed by the CB device through an interface board, there is a tight coupling relationship between the two. This leads to an increase in the complexity of CB equipment management of PE equipment

Embodiment Construction

[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the solution of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a PE equipment management method and device.

[0030] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the networking environment of the VCF system applied to the PE device management method of the present invention. The VCF system includes at least one CB device (only one is shown in the figure), multiple PE devices (such as PE1, PE2, and PE3) and connected PE devices. Multiple hosts of the device (such as Host1, Host2, and Host3). The CB device and the PE device may include multiple ports (such as Port1, Port2, and Port3 on the CB device).

Abstract

The invention provides a PE apparatus management method and a PE apparatus management device, wherein the PE apparatus management method comprises the following steps: establishing a connection with a PE apparatus in a VCF system through a VCF port of a CB apparatus; acquiring forward capability information of the PE apparatus; setting a forward mode for the PE apparatus based on the forward capability information of the PE apparatus, or based on the forward capability information of the PE apparatus and forward capability information of the CB apparatus, wherein the forward mode comprises a distributed forward mode; if the forward mode set for the PE apparatus is the distributed forward mode, issuing OpenFlow flow table entries that are generated in advance to the PE apparatus, thereby enabling the PE apparatus to forward received messages based on the OpenFlow flow table entries. By establishing an OpenFlow connection between the CB apparatus and the PE apparatus, couplings between both the CB apparatus and the PE apparatus are reduced; accordingly, the VCF system is easier to be managed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communications, and in particular to a PE device management method and device. Background technique [0002] The VCF (Vertical Converged Framework) system connects multiple PE (Port Extender module) devices to CB (Controlling Bridge) devices, and vertically stacks and links them together through physical ports. Each "device" is virtualized into an interface board of the CB device, which is managed uniformly by the CB device. In this way, the network hierarchy can be simplified, and a more centralized management method and higher scalability can be provided. Using this virtualization technology can increase the port density of CB equipment at a lower cost, simplify the network topology, and reduce network maintenance costs. [0003] However, in the current management of the VCF system, since the communication between the CB device and the PE device is implemented through a private protocol, and t...
