    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a bit-forwarding ingress router, a bit-forwarding router, and an OAM test method, and pertain to the field of multicast networks. A first BFR receives an OAM request packet from a BFIR; the first BFR determines, according to the OAM request packet, that a destination BFR corresponding to the OAM request packet is the first BFR; and the first BFR obtains a first OAM response packet according to an ID of the BFIR, and sends the first OAM response packet to the BFIR. According to the method and the apparatus that are provided in the embodiments of this application, a problem that a BFIR cannot diagnose or handle a transmission fault when the fault occurs during transmission of a multicast packet can be resolved, which helps implement connectivity testing by using an OAM packet and enables testing of multiple BFERs.

    Abstract: A forwarding table generation method is provided. The method includes: determining, by a forwarding device, a first timeslot set, where the first timeslot set includes multiple timeslots during which the forwarding device sends, to a first device by using a first flexible Ethernet group, multiple encoded data blocks generated by a physical coding sublayer; determining, by the forwarding device, a second timeslot set, where the second timeslot set includes multiple timeslots during which the forwarding device receives, by using a second FlexE group, the multiple encoded data blocks sent by a second device; and generating, by the forwarding device, a forwarding table, where the forwarding table includes a mapping relationship between the second FlexE group and the multiple timeslots included in the second timeslot set, and between the first FlexE group and the multiple timeslots included in the first timeslot set.

    Abstract: A controller obtains a forwarding latency requirement of a service flow and a destination address of the service flow, and determines a forwarding path that meets the forwarding latency requirement. The controller determines that an ingress node forwards a first cycle time number of a packet and an intermediate node forwards a second cycle time number of the packet, and separately determines a corresponding adjacent segment identifier. A label stack generated by the controller includes the adjacent segment identifier and the adjacent segment identifier. The controller sends the label stack to the ingress node, to trigger the ingress node to forward the packet within a period of time corresponding to the first cycle time number. The controller determines the forwarding path based on the forwarding latency requirement of the service flow, and generates a label stack corresponding to a forwarding time point.

    Abstract: An SFC-based communications method and system, and an apparatus are provided. The SFC includes a CF node, an SFF node, and an SF node, and the SFF node is connected to the SF node. The method includes: receiving, by the CF node, a first message from the SFF node; obtaining, by the CF node, network topology information of the SFC based on the first message; obtaining, by the CF node, an SFC forwarding table, where the SFC forwarding table is determined based on the network topology information of the SFC; and sending, by the CF node to the SFF node, a second message used to indicate the SFC forwarding table. In this way, a network topology of the SFC can be flexibly and efficiently discovered.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a method and an apparatus for compressing a label stack. The method includes: obtaining a first label stack corresponding to a forwarding path, where the first label stack comprises node labels corresponding to each node on the forwarding path; selecting a first node label from the first label stack, where when forwarding a packet, a node corresponding to the first node label is capable of encapsulating at least two layers of labels in the packet; replacing at least two adjacent labels located after the first node label in the first label stack with a first compression label, to generate a second label stack; and instructing a source node on the forwarding path to perform packet processing according to the second label stack. In this way, a length of a label stack pushed into the packet can be shortened.

    Abstract: A method, a device, and a system establish a traffic engineering label switched path, which can implement effective isolation between tenants or between services, to ensure security of tenant topology information or service topology information. The method includes: receiving, by an egress node, a resource reservation protocol-traffic engineering RSVP-TE-based Path message sent by an ingress node; determining, by the egress node, whether identification information of a TE LSP and owner-related information corresponding to the TE LSP are stored; and if it is determined that the identification information of the TE LSP and the owner-related information corresponding to the TE LSP are not stored, storing, by the egress node, a correspondence between the identification information of the TE LSP and the owner-related information, and sending an RSVP-TE-based resource reservation Resv message to the ingress node. The present application is applicable to the field of communications.
