Embodiments of the present invention relate to a method and a device for adjusting IP network load. The method comprises: receiving an IP packet stream; adjusting the forwarding paths of IP packets according to load status of the IP network, and transmitting the IP packets, the network devices of the IP network connecting to one another to form a multi-stage CLOS topological structure. The method and the device for adjusting IP network load as presented in embodiments of the present invention can adaptively adjust forwarding paths of the network load according to the dynamic load status of the network, thereby achieving a dynamic load balance throughout the network; by means of dynamic load balancing, potential congestion in a network is eliminated, thereby improving service quality; the necessary design for light loads due to unbalanced network load can now be avoided, thereby enabling a network to be designed for heavy loads, and enhancing the utilization rate of the network capacity. |
