Abstract
A network policy configuration method. The network policy configuration method includes: establishing correlation information between a virtual switch and physical network devices; when an operation event aimed at a virtual machine occurs, sending a first network policy configuration message aimed at the virtual machine to a virtual switch corresponding to the virtual machine, where the first network policy configuration message is used to instruct the virtual switch to perform network policy configuration; and acquiring, according to the correlation information, physical network devices correlated to the virtual switch, and sending second network policy configuration messages aimed at the virtual machine to the physical network devices correlated to the virtual switch, where the second network policy configuration messages are used to instruct the physical network devices to perform network policy configuration. The technical solution is capable of automatically configuring a network policy, thereby supporting the server virtualization technology.
