Title:
DHCP PACKET PROCESSING METHOD AND DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/214560
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed in the present invention are a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) packet processing method and a device, the method comprising: a DHCP proxy node receiving a request from a service network, the request being used to allocate an IP address to a virtual machine or physical machine; the DHCP proxy node, in a management network and on the basis of the request, acquiring an IP address from a DHCP service node; the DHCP proxy node sending the acquired IP address to the virtual machine or physical machine. The present method, by means of deploying a DHCP proxy node in a data center, the DHCP proxy node having the function of freely forwarding messages or packets between a service network and a management network, realizes automatic configuration of IP addresses, reducing management costs while also eliminating the need for a manager to manually configure IP addresses, and improving connection efficiency.
