Abstract

The present invention provides a method and device for maintaining forwarding entries. The method includes: when receiving an EVPN route synchronized by a VTEP device in a distributed aggregation group, and the EVPN route carries a preset identifier, saving the EVPN route; wherein, the preset identifier is used to indicate that the EVPN route is a route for the same MAC address that is not synchronized for the first time in the same distributed aggregation group; when the link between itself and the target VTEP device in the distributed aggregation group When the path fails, the corresponding forwarding entry is maintained according to the saved EVPN route carrying the preset identifier. The application of the embodiment of the present invention can avoid the interruption of related service traffic caused by the link failure between the VTEP equipment in the distributed aggregation group and the remote VTEP equipment, and improve the reliability of the networking.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network communication, in particular to a method and device for maintaining forwarding entries. Background technique [0002] VXLAN (Virtual Extensible Local Area Network, scalable virtual local area network) is based on IP (Internet Protocol, Internet Protocol) network, using "MAC (Media Access Control, Media Access Control) in UDP (User Datagram Protocol, User Datagram Protocol) "Layer 2 VPN (Virtual Private Network, Virtual Private Network) technology in encapsulation form. Based on the existing service provider or enterprise IP network, VXLAN can provide Layer 2 interconnection for dispersed physical sites and provide service isolation for different tenants. [0003] At present, in order to improve the reliability of the VXLAN network, the concept of distributed aggregation is proposed to figure 1 The network shown is an example. Device A has 2 physical ports added to 1 aggregation port, and the oth...
