Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed are a tunnel configuration method, apparatus and system, and a device and a storage medium. The method comprises: an AP device sends to an AC device used for indicating the type of at least one data tunnel supported by the AP device, the type of the at least one data tunnel comprising a VXLAN; then the AP device receives the configuration information, sent by the AC device, of the VXLAN tunnel, the local end device of the VXLAN tunnel being the AP device. The configuration information of the VXLAN tunnel comprises the IP address of at least one peer end device of the VXLAN tunnel and the VNI information of the VXLAN tunnel, and therefore, the AP device generates tunnel encapsulation information and routing information according to the IP address of the at least one peer end device of the VXLAN tunnel and the VNI information. According to the present application, the virtualization of a WLAN can be implemented, the coverage of the edge devices of the WLAN by a VXLAN can be implemented, and the deployment mode of the distributed or centralized gateway of the VXLAN is supported.
