TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT IMPLEMENTATION METHOD AND APPARATUS AND NETWORK DEVICE

摘要

Disclosed are a traffic management implementation method and apparatus and a network device. The TM implementation apparatus hangs beside a processor or a switched network chip for receiving a packet management request sent by the processor or the switched network chip, the packet management request comprising a queue identifier, and the queue identifier being used for identifying a stream queue of the processor or the switched network chip for storing a data packet; performing traffic management on the packet management request, and generating a packet management response according to a management result, the packet management response comprising a management indication and the queue identifier; and sending the packet management response to the processor or the switched network chip, so that the processor or the switched network chip processes the data packet in the stream queue corresponding to the queue identifier according to the management indication. In this way, the TM implementation apparatus achieves a traffic management function by interacting and linking with a processor or a switched network chip, without needing to store or process a data packet.
