The present disclosure discloses a method and an apparatus for controlling a network traffic path. The method includes: receiving routing advertisement information from a first network to a second network; determining all routing nodes included in a path through which data pass when flowing from the second network to the first network according to the routing advertisement information; and configuring a next hop routing node for each determined routing node, where the next hop routing node is a node in all the routing nodes included in the path and is adjacent to the routing node for which the next hop routing node is configured, and the routing node for which the next hop routing node is configured does not include a routing node of the first network or a routing node of the second network.

Method and apparatus for controlling network traffic path

A method and an apparatus for controlling a network traffic path are provided. The method includes: receiving routing advertisement information from a first network to a second network; determining all routing nodes included in a path through which data pass when flowing from the second network to the first network according to the routing advertisement information; and configuring a next hop routing node for each determined routing node, where the next hop routing node is a node in all the routing nodes included in the path and is adjacent to the routing node for which the next hop routing node is configured, and the routing node for which the next hop routing node is configured does not include a routing node of the first network or a routing node of the second network.

A method, an apparatus and a system for controlling routing information advertising are provided, which relate to the field of communications and are used for reducing the configuration complexity and reinforcing the operability. The method includes: receiving, by a control device, first routing information sent by a first forwarding device; wherein the first routing information includes an identifier of the first forwarding device; determining a first routing path according to the identifier of the first forwarding device, an identifier of a second forwarding device and a routing path group; and determining an advertising range of second routing information for the second forwarding device according to the first routing path; for enabling the second forwarding device to advertise the second routing information according to the advertising range of the second routing information.

Method, apparatus and system for controlling routing information advertising

The application disclose a method, an apparatus and a system for controlling routing information advertising, which relates to the field of communications and is used for reducing the configuration complexity and reinforcing the operability. The method includes: receiving, by a control device, first routing information sent by a first forwarding device; wherein the first routing information includes an identifier of the first forwarding device; determining a first routing path according to the identifier of the first forwarding device, an identifier of a second forwarding device and a routing path group; and determining an advertising range of second routing information for the second forwarding device according to the first routing path; for enabling the second forwarding device to advertise the second routing information according to the advertising range of the second routing information.

Embodiments of the present application disclose a method and an apparatus for determining a next hop and advertising routing information, which relate to the field of communications and are used for reducing operation complexity of a forwarding device and reducing network maintenance workload. The method for determining the next hop provided by the embodiments of the present application includes: receiving, by a control device, first routing information sent by a first forwarding device, where the first routing information includes an identifier of the first forwarding device; determining a first routing path according to the identifier of the first forwarding device, an identifier of a second forwarding device and a routing path group; and determining a next hop in second routing information for the second forwarding device according to the first routing path, where the second forwarding device is a receiver of the second routing information advertised by the control device.

Method and apparatus for determining next hop and advertising routing information

Embodiments of the present invention provide a route advertisement method, and controller, where the method is applied to a BGP-based routing network, a physical controller in the routing network is connected to multiple physical routers, and the method includes: receiving, by the physical controller, routing information reported by at least one physical router; obtaining a traffic path in which the at least one physical router is used as an egress router to transmit traffic to a destination router; generating a route for a physical router in the traffic path; and delivering the generated route to a corresponding physical router. In these embodiments, it is avoided that congestion occurs at an egress router, and a router that receives the traffic may generate a route for the router according to the traffic path so as to transmit the traffic to a next-hop router of the router without a need of recalculation.
