Title:
PACKET FORWARDING METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND DRAGONFLY NETWORK
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/050874
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present application relates to the technical field of communications. Disclosed are a packet forwarding method and apparatus, and a dragonfly network. The method comprises: a first network device in a first device group receives a first packet sent by a first terminal device connected to the first network device, and having a destination address as an IP address of a second terminal device connected to a second network device in a second device group; if a first inter-group interconnection link exists between the first network device and the second device group, and no congestion occurs in the first inter-group interconnection link, the first network device sends the first packet to the second network device by means of the first inter-group interconnection link. In the present application, the first network device preferably selects an inter-group interconnection link between the first network device and the second device group to send a packet to the second network device, so that the forwarding hop count of the packet is as small as possible to implement low latency of intergroup communication, and the control precision of a packet forwarding path is improved.
