Problems solved by technology

Then, when there is a problem with tunnel load balancing, to determine the cause of the problem, the user not only needs to check whether there is a problem with the tunnel module, but also needs to check whether there is a problem with the routing module, so as to determine the cause of the problem with tunnel load balancing. Long time and high labor cost

Embodiment Construction

[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the application with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] Tunnel: It is used for communication between network devices such as firewall devices and routers, and can be an IPsec tunnel. The two network devices establishing the tunnel can actively establish a tunnel with the opposite end, or passively establish a tunnel with the opposite end after receiving a tunnel establishment request sent by the opposite end.

[0026] Currently, tunnel load balancing is implemented based on the routing module, which requires the cooperation of the...

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide a message forwarding method and network equipment. The network equipment includes a routing module and a tunnel module. The method includes the following steps: the routing module determines a route corresponding to a destination address of a to-be-forwarded data message as a target route according to addressing rules; the tunnel module determines a first tunnel corresponding to the target route; the tunnel module finds a target tunnel group including the first tunnel from multiple preset tunnel groups, wherein the multiple tunnels included by each tunnel group are used for forwarding data messages with the same quintuple; the tunnel module determines a second tunnel from the target tunnel group according to the load balancing rule of a preset target tunnel group; and the tunnel module forwards the to-be-forwarded data message through the second tunnel. According to the embodiments, time consuming for determining the cause of the problem of tunnel load balancing can be decreased, and labor costs can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of communications, and in particular to a message forwarding method and network equipment. Background technique [0002] Communication between terminals is generally implemented through tunnels between network devices such as firewall devices. Wherein, the tunnel may be an IPsec (Internet Protocol Security, Internet Protocol Security) tunnel. One or more tunnels can be established between two network devices. [0003] In order to ensure the communication quality between terminals, the network device needs to perform load balancing processing on the packets passing through the tunnel. Currently, network devices are mainly based on routing modules to implement tunnel load balancing. Specifically, load balancing rules are pre-configured in the routing module of the network device. After the network device receives the data message, the routing module obtains a route from multiple routes correspond...
