A packet processing method, a network device, and a network system are provided, which are related to the field of communication technologies. According to the method, an intermediate node updates a source IP address of a packet based on an IP address that belongs to a local end in an endpoint IP address of a connection, and updates a destination IP address of the packet based on an IP address that belongs to a remote end in the endpoint IP address of the connection. Therefore, in a scenario in which an SR path crosses underlay transport networks in a plurality of different routing domains, a problem that a packet is discarded because a source IP address is always an IP address of a head end and URPF check fails is avoided.

Packet processing method, network device, and network system

A first network device of a plurality of network devices is provided. The first network device is configured to receive a first data packet from a second site; search a flow table stored in the first network device for a target flow entry whose flow identifier is of a first data flow, each entry comprises a flow identifier and a corresponding outbound interface identifier, the target flow entry is created when the first site sends a second data flow to the second site, a source address of the second data flow is a destination address of the first data flow, and a destination address of the second data flow is a source address of the first data flow; and if the target flow entry is found, send the first data packet through an interface corresponding to an outbound interface identifier in the target flow entry.

Packet sending method and apparatus, and storage medium

An embodiment provides a packet transmission method and apparatus, to resolve a problem that occurs when a packet cannot traverse a NAT device when VTEPs communicate with each other through the NAT device. The method is applied to a VXLAN including a first VTEP, a second VTEP, and a NAT device. The method includes: performing, by the first VTEP, VXLAN encapsulation on a first packet, obtaining a second packet; sending, by the first VTEP, the second packet to the second VTEP through the NAT device; and performing, by the second VTEP, VXLAN decapsulation on the received second packet, to obtain the first packet. The first packet is a packet to be sent by the first VTEP, a destination port number of the second packet is obtained based on a destination IP address of the second packet, and a source port number of the second packet is a preset port number.
