The present disclosure relates to multicast packet processing methods. One example method includes obtaining a first multicast packet, where destination information of the first multicast packet includes a first identifier indicating link information, a second identifier indicating a replication and forwarding operation, and a third identifier used to index destination information corresponding to a second node, obtaining a second multicast packet based on the first multicast packet and the third identifier, obtaining a third multicast packet, where destination information of the third multicast packet is destination information corresponding to a third node that is determined based on a destination information index corresponding to a multicast packet obtained after the first multicast packet is replicated, sending the second multicast packet to the second node based on the first identifier, and sending the third multicast packet to the third node based on the destination information of the multicast packet.
