TRAFFIC FORWARDING METHOD AND APPARATUS

原文（中国語）

Disclosed are a traffic forwarding method and apparatus. In an example of the present disclosure, a forwarding engine may report flow statistics information to a processor in response to a determination that an information reporting condition is met. Among flow statistics information with the same flow identification information, the processor may merge the flow statistics information meeting a preset interval duration merging condition based on the first packet timestamp and the last packet timestamp. The processor determines cycle information of a flow based on the merged flow statistics information, determine flow characteristic information of a downstream port of a spine node based on the cycle information of the flow, and advertise the flow characteristic information of the downstream port of the spine node to leaf nodes, so that the leaf nodes perform upstream data flow scheduling based on the flow characteristic information of the downstream port of the spine node.
