    Abstract: A method for renewing an IP address includes: obtaining, by a controller, DHCP address information from a client, where the DHCP address information includes an IP address of the client, a MAC address of the client, and an address of a DHCP server that assigns the IP address to the client; and when the controller determines that the client is powered off, sending, by the controller by using the address of the DHCP server, an IP renewal request including the IP address and the MAC address to the DHCP server to renew the IP address, until the client registers with the controller. Therefore, the client can use a same IP address every time the client is powered on, and service configurations related to the IP address on the client are continuously effective and do not need to be changed.

    Abstract: Hashing name resolution requests may be performed according to an identified routing policy. A query from a Domain Name System (DNS) resolver to lookup a name in a first collection of name records may be received. A hash function may be applied to the name to generate a hash value according to a routing policy for the first collection of name records that determines which name record in the first collection of name records is used to answer the query. A name record in the collection of name records may be identified according to a mapping request for the name record using the hash value and a value for the name record may be returned to the DNS resolver. The value for the name record may identify a second collection of name records to query as part of determining the network address at the DNS resolver.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network inserts a profile tag into an address request sent by an endpoint node in the network to a lookup service. The lookup service is configured to identify one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate based on a profile for the endpoint node associated with the inserted profile tag. The device receives an address response sent from the lookup service to the endpoint node that indicates the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate. The device determines whether a communication between the endpoint node and a particular network address is authorized using the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate. The device blocks the communication based on a determination that the particular network address is not in the set of one or more addresses with which the endpoint node is authorized to communicate.

    Abstract: This application discloses a network communication method applied to a network communication system including a first network device in a first private network, a second network device in a second private network and a gateway device coupling the first private network to the second private network. The first network device receives a first data packet transmitted from a terminal to a target blockchain node, and acquires an actual network address of the target blockchain node; and generates a second data packet according to the first data packet and the actual network address, and transmits the second data packet to a virtual network address of the second network device in the second private network, so that the operation overheads generated when the gateway device generates virtual network addresses for blockchain nodes can be reduced, thereby saving a storage space of the gateway device.

    Abstract: This application provides a packet processing method and a network device. A third network device is multi-homed to a first network device and a second network device, the first network device is configured with a first physical MAC address and a virtual MAC address, the second network device is configured with a second physical MAC address and the virtual MAC address, and the virtual MAC address is used to forward a user data packet to a network side. The method includes: a first network device receives a protocol packet from a third network device, where the protocol packet includes the second physical MAC address; and the first network device forwards the protocol packet to the second network device based on the second physical MAC address. Thus, the protocol packet can be normally forwarded without special configuration on a server, so that a cumbersome configuration process is avoided.
