  • Publication number: 20240064099
    Abstract: This application discloses a communication method and a related apparatus, and relates to the field of communication technologies. The method is applied to an SD-WAN overlay network. A CPE autonomously generates an SD-WAN overlay routing table, so that communication reliability and flexibility are improved. An RR specifies an overlay multicast RPF route to the CPE to implement SD-WAN overlay multicast communication, and the CPE does not need to perform path computation autonomously, so that a computing power requirement of the CPE is reduced. An identifier of the CPE and an identifier of a site are carried in a multicast join message to implement the SD-WAN overlay multicast communication. A standard IP header is carried in a multicast service packet to implement the SD-WAN overlay multicast communication, so that generalization, applicability, and compatibility are improved.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application disclose a tunnel establishment method. A first communication apparatus may receive first adjacency topology information sent by a second communication apparatus, and establish a first tunnel between the first communication apparatus and the second communication apparatus when the first adjacency topology information matches second adjacency topology information of the first communication apparatus. It can be learned that, in this solution, the first communication apparatus may locally store only the second adjacency topology information of the first communication apparatus. Compared with the conventional technology in which information about two endpoints of a tunnel needs to be configured on the first communication apparatus, configuration for the first communication apparatus is simpler.
