Abstract:
A NAT entry management method and a NAT device are disclosed. The method includes: receiving and storing, by a NAT device, a connection parameter, where the connection parameter includes an address of a controller; receiving a packet sent by a network device, where a source address of the packet is a private address of the network device and a destination address of the packet is the address of the controller; performing NAT on the packet, where an after-NAT source address of the packet is a public address; and when a static entry condition is met, generating a target static NAT entry, where the static entry condition includes that the destination address of the packet is the address of the controller. This can prevent aging of the NAT entry from affecting communication between the network device and the controller.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a system for controlling access of a user terminal, where the method includes receiving, by a controller, an authentication packet sent by an access switching node through an established data tunnel; obtaining, by the controller, a source media access control (MAC) address of the authentication packet; after access authentication implemented on a user terminal, determining, from a maintained correspondence between MAC addresses of user terminals and interface identifiers, an interface identifier corresponding to the MAC address of the successfully-authenticated user terminal, where the interface identifier identifies an interface connected to the user terminal; and sending, by the controller, the determined interface identifier to the access switching node through an established control tunnel, and instructing the access switching node to enable the interface corresponding to the interface identifier.
Abstract:
A packet transmission method, apparatus, and system in a multicast domain name system (mDNS), which are used to resolve a network bandwidth waste problem due to much service information needs to be transmitted in an mDNS-based network. The method includes, converting, by a relay, a known-answer service query packet that is sent by a user terminal and used to query service information in an mDNS, into a unicast known-answer service query packet and sending the unicast known-answer service query packet to a gateway, receiving, by the relay, a unicast known-answer service answer packet that is sent by the gateway and includes service information unknown to the user terminal, and converting, by the relay, the unicast known-answer service answer packet into a multicast known-answer service answer packet and sending the multicast known-answer service answer packet to the user terminal.
Abstract:
A network security method and a device relating to the field of network communication where the method includes, recording a correspondence between an Internet Protocol (IP) address and an security group tag (SGT), and executing a network security policy on a receiver of a data packet according to the recorded correspondence between the IP address and the SGT such that SGT information of the receiver does not need to be specially propagated, thereby decreasing network resource consumption and reducing network complexity.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for configuring a packet forwarding manner. The method includes receiving, by a control node (CN), a connection establishment request packet from a client device, and acquiring a user attribute according to the request packet; according to the user attribute and a forwarding policy, acquiring, by the first CN, a packet forwarding manner corresponding to the client device, where the forwarding policy includes a packet forwarding manner corresponding to the user attribute; and after authentication succeeds, sending, by the first CN, a message carrying the acquired packet forwarding manner to a wireless access point (AP) associated with the client device, so as to instruct the wireless AP to create a forwarding entry of the client device, where the forwarding entry includes the packet forwarding manner. The present invention implements user-based control of a packet forwarding manner, simplifying configuration and maintenance.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a service packet forwarding and processing method and system, and an access point AP. Change information of a packet forwarding path of a mobile terminal STA is obtained. A path update packet is sent to a forwarding device according to the change information of the packet forwarding path of the STA, so that the forwarding device performs update processing on the forwarding path of the STA according to the path update packet.
Abstract:
An access control method, system, and a switch, pertains to the field of network technologies. The access control method includes receiving, by an authentication device, a packet from an access device, where the packet includes a virtual local area network (VLAN) identifier, and authenticating, by the authentication device based on the VLAN identifier and a preconfigured correspondence using an authentication method corresponding to the VLAN identifier, a terminal device sending the packet, where the correspondence includes a mapping from a plurality of VLAN identifiers to at least two authentication methods. Hence, the authentication method of the terminal device is determined based on the VLAN identifier such that different authentication methods may be used for terminal devices in different VLANs. Therefore, an access manner is flexible.
