  • Patent number: 11855877
    Abstract: An information management method includes that a controller generates a first message carrying an address of a first next hop of a network device. The first message includes first identification information. The first identification information instructs the network device to delete, from a next hop table stored in the network device, an entry of the first next hop corresponding to the address of the first next hop. The network device receives the first message, and deletes the entry of the first next hop as indicated by the first identification information. The controller withdraw an unavailable next hop by separately sending information about the next hop to the network device without route prefix information, effectively saving a system resource occupied for route withdrawal message exchanging between the controller and the network device, and improving service processing efficiency.

  • Patent number: 11844063
    Abstract: A packet processing apparatus includes a memory, a processor, a first gate, and a second gate. The memory stores a plurality of allocation patterns for allocating an upstream or downstream of a link direction for each subframe within a predetermined period. The processor obtains a periodicity pattern of a high-priority packet for each of time slots within the subframe. The first gate opens and closes, for each of the time slots within the subframe, output of the high-priority packet. The second gate opens and closes, for each of the time slots within the subframe, output of a low-priority packet. The processor sets gate states of the first gate and the second gate for a predetermined time slot within the subframe in the same link direction as the periodicity pattern to a priority state in which the high-priority packet is preferentially output according to the periodicity pattern.
