Embodiment:
The invention will be further described below in conjunction with drawings and Examples.
In Fig. 3, three RPR rings have been realized interconnected by two RPR gateways.A lot of fringe nodes are all arranged on each ring, and fringe node is collected from user's message and is sent on the RPR ring, sends the user to from encircling the message that receives to this node user simultaneously, and the message of non-node need continue to transmit forward.Gateway connects a plurality of RPR rings, finishes the forwarding capability of many interannulars.
As shown in Figure 4, be a kind of encapsulation format of RPR grouping of the MPLS of containing label.Wherein, da is the point of destination MAC Address, sa is the source station MAC Address, tunnelLabel is initiate a kind of MPLS label, expression tunnel label, the MPLS tag format of use standard, the Label that contains a 20bit, the exp of 3bit and out of Memory, gateway utilize Label information to establish route, utilize exp information to realize the grade of service that they are different.
In Fig. 2, gateway G is connecting three RPR rings, ring A, ring B and ring C.Each fringe node all has a MAC Address, gateway also has a MAC Address, when fringe node Ea desire sends message to fringe node Eb, the MAC Address of only need the da territory in heading filling out fringe node Eb gets final product, this moment, the tunnelLabel territory was invalid, and this message is from Ea, during through other fringe node, these nodes can carry out the MAC Address coupling, find it is not the message of this node, can continue to transmit forward, if through gateway node, gateway node can carry out the MAC Address coupling equally, find non-node message, can continue before this hoop, to transmit, until node Eb, Eb finds the MAC Address coupling, then receives this message.When the Eb desire sends message to Ec, need transannular this moment, the MAC Address of at first filling out gateway in the da territory of heading gets final product, show that this message is a gateway in the destination of this ring, fill out gateway G in the tunnelLabel territory then and distribute to its tunnelLabel, after message triggers from Eb, the terminal point that at first can arrive this ring is gateway G, after gateway G receives this message, the discovery MAC Address is mated, and then passes through control plane according to the tunnelLabel basis, uses the method or the LDP of static configuration, agreements such as BGP are set up the label switched path information of the whole network, search local routing table, find that this message is the Ec node of whereabouts ring C,, so the da territory of message is replaced to the MAC Address of Ec, be sent to ring C, enter the final destination node Ec that arrives behind the ring C.Gateway G can realize according to the entrained class of service information in exp territory among the tunnelLabel user's QoS management and SLA are ensured when heavy traffic.
For another example, fringe node Ea among Fig. 3 desires when Ec sends message, equally, at first fill out the MAC Address of gateway Ga and the tunnelLabel that Ga distributes to it, after message arrives Ga, Ga can know that according to local information the final destination of message is not in the ring that directly links to each other with it, so the da of heading is replaced to the MAC Address of next gateway Gb according to routing iinformation, simultaneously tunnelLabel is replaced to gateway Gb and distribute to its tunnelLabel, like this when message arrives gateway Gb, gateway Gb replaces to da the MAC Address of Ec again, because destination node is in the ring that directly links to each other with it, so the tunnelLabel territory of this moment is no longer valid, need not to replace, message can finally arrive destination node Ec.
Fig. 5 is one and utilizes the interconnected example that realizes the whole network protection of binode.If gateway Ga lost efficacy, perhaps some link occurs fault that link to each other with gateway Ga, so, gateway Gb can continuation be sent to other ring with Packet Service under the constant situation of QoS and SLA.
