Problems solved by technology

At present, the common method is to restore the switch memory data through the configuration file. However, the execution of each configuration command needs to go through the process of command parsing, parameter validity checking, data saving, etc., so it will take a long time.

specific example

[0023] as attached figure 1 As shown, multiple switches are managed under the SDN controller, including the central switch S, switch M, and switch N, and the central switch and the switch are interconnected to form a transmission link. The central switch is S to save configuration information for switches M and N .

[0024] as attached figure 2 As shown, the specific implementation steps are:

[0025] The switch M transmits the updated configuration information entry to the central switch S at the end of each time slot T, and the switch S stores the received data in the non-volatile memory according to the standard protocol format, wherein;

[0026] The configuration information sent by switch M includes its port information and flow table information;

[0027] Switch S every The data saved for switch M will be cleared once to prevent the buffer from overflowing due to the change of its own link topology and the switch M being no longer connected but continuing to save c...

Abstract

The invention discloses a switch configuration recovery method under an SDN network. The implementation process is as follows: in a physical topology system, each OpenFlow switch is connected to a central switch, and the central switch backs up received configuration information in a standard protocol format. In the non-volatile memory; when the switch restarts due to a fault, it only needs to request the matching data information from the connected central switch and restore the data to the memory. Compared with the prior art, the switch configuration recovery method under the SDN network backs up the configuration information of the switch in the adjacent central switch, thereby reducing the transmission delay and achieving the purpose of quickly restoring the switch configuration information. Real-time recovery of configuration problems of switch memory information, strong practicability, and easy promotion.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a highly practical and SDN network switch configuration recovery method. Background technique [0002] With the development of OpenFlow-based software-defined networking (Software Defined Networking, SDN), network virtualization technology adopts a centralized control method, which separates the control plane and data plane of network equipment, and facilitates flexible scheduling of resources. Among them, the SDN controller is responsible for the topology management of the network and configures the forwarding flow table; the OpenFlow switch only needs to complete the data packet forwarding work according to the command of the SDN controller. [0003] Multiple switches can be managed under the SDN controller. If a switch fails and the transmission on the link is interrupted, in order to ensure the validity of the issued flow table and not delay the forwarding of subsequent...
