An aspect of the embodiments related to a packet transmission apparatus includes a user identification unit for identifying the user of an input user flow upon input of the user flow containing communication packets and maintenance packets, a maintenance packet extraction unit for extracting the maintenance packets from the user flow of the user identified by the user identification unit, a maintenance packet output control unit for controlling the transparent output of the maintenance packets extracted by the maintenance packet extraction unit based on the monitor rate setting, and a control unit for monitoring and controlling the user flow of the particular user based on the maintenance packets of the user transparently output by the maintenance packet output control unit.
摘要:
A communication apparatus is connected to a network and identifies a flow of a frame input thereto and outputs the frame to a port. The communication apparatus includes: a flow identifying unit that obtains a flow identifier of the flow to which the frame belongs, and that obtains, based on the flow identifier, a hash rule corresponding to the flow identifier; a transfer destination controller that obtains by calculation a hash value of the frame by making use of the hash rule obtained by the flow identifying unit and that decides on an output port for the frame based on combination of the flow identifier and the hash value; and a frame output unit that outputs the frame to the output port decided by the transfer destination controller.

摘要:
A communication device includes a processor that is operative to perform actions, including, determining whether a failure occurs in a regular communication channel to transmit a packet to another communication device, selecting, upon determining that the failure occurs in the regular communication channel, a backup communication channel for transmitting the packet, determining, upon selecting the backup communication channel, whether the backup communication channel is shared by the regular communication channel and another regular communication channel, changing, upon determining that the backup communication channel is shared, a priority assigned to the packet transmitted from the regular communication channel to the backup communication channel, and controlling the transmission of the packet in accordance with the changed priority.
摘要:
There is provided a packet transmission device which comprises a packet transfer processing part and a control part. The packet transfer processing part includes a table memory comprising a path selection table, a link status table, and a node status table. In these tables, information of each of paths, links, and nodes are stored and linked each other. A link/node status monitoring part in the control part monitors a packet outputted from the packet transfer processing part transmission and detects a fault occurred in a transmission of the packet. The fault is reflected on the information of paths in the tables only by updating the information of links and nodes and the path for packets outputted from the device is assigned in a short time.
