    摘要: Embodiments of this application provide a data transmission method and apparatus. The method includes receiving, by a first device, a data packet, and extracting first address information of the data packet, where the first address information indicates a VNF; retrieving, by the first device based on the first address information, an SRv6 tunnel policy that corresponds to the first address information and that is from a SRv6 tunnel list; obtaining, by the first device, a forwarding path corresponding to a first SRv6 VPN SID, where the forwarding path is used as a data transmission path when the first device communicates with a second device corresponding to the first SRv6 VPN SID; and forwarding, by the first device, the data packet to the VNF based on the forwarding path.

    摘要: This application describes a tunnel establishment method. The method may include receiving, by a first network device, a first request message sent by a previous-hop network device, where the first request message is used to request to obtain an RSVP-TE label of the first network device, the first network device supports RSVP-TE and SR-TE, and the previous-hop network device supports RSVP-TE. The method may also include that when the first network device determines that at least one network device in downstream network devices of the first network device on a path of a to-be-established tunnel supports SR-TE, establishing an SR-TE tunnel from the first network device to a second network device, and generating a tunnel identifier used to identify the SR-TE tunnel. Furthermore, the method may include sending a first response message to the previous-hop network device, where the first response message includes the tunnel identifier.

    摘要: This application discloses a method, an apparatus, and a system for processing a transmission path fault. In this application, after a first network device receives a packet, and when the first network device determines that a third network device is faulty, a difference between an initial value of a segment routing global block SRGB of the first network device and an initial value of an SRGB of the third network device is determined, and a backup path is determined based on the difference and a backup forwarding table. The first network device sends a first packet based on the backup forwarding table.
