The target value of the traffic parameter meets a delay requirement of the service flow, the target value falls within a range determined based on the first limit value of the traffic parameter and the second limit value of the traffic parameter, and the first limit value is not equal to the second limit value. The first controller sends the target value of the traffic parameter, where the target value is used to adjust the traffic of the service flow sent by a transmit end.

    摘要: Disclosed are a packet forwarding method, a device, and a system. The method includes: A first network device receives a first message sent by a second network device via a second egress port of the second network device, where the first message is used to measure a phase difference, and the phase difference is a phase difference between a switching time of one of a plurality of first buffers of a first egress port of the first network device and a switching time of one of a plurality of second buffers of the second egress port of the second network device with a link delay taken into consideration; the first network device determines the phase difference based on the first message; and then the first network device schedules, based on the phase difference, a second data packet sent via the first egress port. In this way, the first network device and the second network device implement queuing and forwarding of data packets without time synchronization.

    摘要: This application discloses a packet forwarding method and apparatus, a system, a device, and a storage medium. The method is applied to an in-vehicle network and includes: obtaining, by a network device, a plurality of packets carried on an Ethernet link in the in-vehicle network, where the plurality of packets are packets of one or more application categories; determining a traffic class of each packet based on an application category of each packet in the plurality of packets; adding each packet to a forwarding queue corresponding to the traffic class based on the traffic class of each packet; and scheduling and forwarding packets in all forwarding queues based on an absolute priority and a traffic class corresponding to each forwarding queue, and using a shaper in a forwarding queue of at least one traffic class in intermediate traffic classes in the scheduling and forwarding process. For the plurality of packets carried on the Ethernet link, a transmission requirement of the packets is met, so that the scheduling and forwarding have better performance. Therefore, the method is applicable to an Ethernet-based in-vehicle network architecture. The use of the shaper ensures a bounded latency.

In the foregoing method, traffic can be properly offloaded, thereby ensuring that link bandwidth is fully used.

    摘要: This application discloses a service level configuration method and apparatus, and belongs to the field of communications network technologies. According to the method, a target service level used by a first forwarding node to forward a data flow is directly determined based on a transmission parameter of the data flow and service level information of the first forwarding node, and service level configuration is performed on the first forwarding node. Because a transmission parameter of the target service level of the first forwarding node and the transmission parameter of the data flow meet a first target condition, if the first target condition is a delay requirement required by a special service and the first forwarding node transmits the data flow by using the target service level, transmission of the data flow may meet the delay requirement required by the special service.

    摘要: This application discloses a data transmission method and apparatus, relates to computer network technologies, and is used to prevent a network device from forwarding an Ethernet frame in which an error occurs. A specific solution is as follows: A network device receives an Ethernet frame, and checks a destination MAC address based on a first CRC code, to determine whether an error occurs in the destination MAC address. If the network device determines that no error occurs in the destination MAC address, the network device forwards the Ethernet frame based on the destination MAC address. The Ethernet frame includes the destination MAC address, the first CRC code, and a payload, a parameter of the first CRC code includes the destination MAC address, and the parameter of the first CRC code does not include the payload. The embodiments of this application are used in a process of forwarding the Ethernet frame.
