Abstract:
Embodiments of the present application disclose a multipath transmission based packet traffic control method, including: monitoring egress traffic of a data packet set sent by a source node; determining, according to a preconfigured mapping relationship between traffic ranges and forwarding paths, a target forwarding path set corresponding to the egress traffic of the data packet set, and a weight parameter of the egress traffic borne on each target forwarding path in the target forwarding path set; and distributing the data packet set according to the weight parameter, and transferring the data packet set to a destination node by the target forwarding path set. The embodiments of the present application further disclose a traffic control apparatus. By using the present application, centralized policing and classification can be performed on user traffic in a multipath transmission scenario.
