SCHEDULING FLOW IDENTIFIER-BASED PACKET SCHEDULING METHOD AND DEVICE

摘要

A scheduling flow identifier-based packet scheduling method and device, the method comprising: during forwarding processing of a received packet, a forwarding device obtains a corresponding scheduling flow identifier of a next forwarding device of a packet in a forwarding path; the forwarding device adds the scheduling flow identifier to the packet; the forwarding device sends the packet comprising the scheduling flow identifier to the next forwarding device. The present technical solution reduces the time wherein the next forwarding device analyses packet feature information once again so as to obtain the corresponding scheduling flow identifier of the packet, thereby increasing information processing efficiency, and reducing hardware consumption.
