Embodiments of the present invention provide a packet processing method, a forwarding plane device and a network device, the method includes: receiving, by a forwarding plane device, a first packet transmitted by a user, where an identity of the user is comprised in the first packet, and a forwarding table is comprised in the forwarding plane device; determining, by the forwarding plane device, an identity of a service according to a corresponding relationship between the identity of the user and the identity of the service as well as the identity of the user in the first packet; generating, by the forwarding plane device, a second packet by encapsulating the first packet with the identity of the service; and transmitting the second packet to a network device, to enable the network device to manage the service according to the identity of the service in the second packet.

The application provide a packet sending method, a router, and a service switching entity. According to the application, a router determines a flow group identifier of a service packet and information about a next-hop service switching entity according to a user identifier and IP 5-tuple information; and forwards the packet to the next-hop service switching entity according to the information about the next-hop service switching entity, so that the next-hop service switching entity determines a corresponding destination service instance according to the user identifier, the flow group identifier, a router identifier, and a processing result, and forwards the packet to the destination service instance, to perform corresponding service processing, thereby implementing service packet forwarding among service instances. The router in the method provided in the embodiments has a flow steering function, and steers a flow to a specified path to perform node-by-node processing.

A packet processing method, a forwarding plane device and a network device, where the method includes receiving, by a forwarding plane device, a first packet transmitted by a user, where an identity of the user is comprised in the first packet, and a forwarding table is comprised in the forwarding plane device, determining, by the forwarding plane device, an identity of a service according to a corresponding relationship between the identity of the user and the identity of the service as well as the identity of the user in the first packet, generating, by the forwarding plane device, a second packet by encapsulating the first packet with the identity of the service, and transmitting the second packet to a network device to enable the network device to manage the service according to the identity of the service in the second packet.

Embodiments of the present application provide a method and an apparatus for compressing a label stack. The method includes: obtaining a first label stack corresponding to a forwarding path, where the first label stack comprises node labels corresponding to each node on the forwarding path; selecting a first node label from the first label stack, where when forwarding a packet, a node corresponding to the first node label is capable of encapsulating at least two layers of labels in the packet; replacing at least two adjacent labels located after the first node label in the first label stack with a first compression label, to generate a second label stack; and instructing a source node on the forwarding path to perform packet processing according to the second label stack. In this way, a length of a label stack pushed into the packet can be shortened.
