The application provides a route synchronization method and an apparatus. The method includes: receiving, by a first FEF, an entire network address request message sent by a second FEF, where the entire network address request message includes an MAC address and an FC network segment of the second FEF; parsing, by the first FEF, the entire network address request message, acquiring the MAC address and the FC network segment of the second FEF, and storing the MAC address and the FC network segment of the second FEF in a routing table of the first FEF; and sending, by the first FEF, a response message to the second FEF, where the response message includes a MAC address and an FC network segment of the first FEF. Thus, distributed routing of an FCoE network is implemented, and scalability of the FCoE network is improved.
