20100329111 | Multi-Active Detection Method And Stack Member Device - The present invention discloses a method of multi-active detection and a stack member device. Each member device in a stack is configured with a detection interface that is assigned an IP address, wherein the IP address of the detection interface on the designated active device is activated. Each member devices is also configured with an active device election rule, and with a correspondence between the IP address of the detection interface on each member device and the active device election parameter of the member device. Upon detection that the stack has become split, each designated standby device transitions to become an active device and activates the IP address of its detection interface. Each active device then uses the IP address of its detection interface as the source IP address to establish a session with other active devices, finds the active device election parameter according to the source IP address in the received session packet, and elects an active device that maintains its active state according to the configured active device election rule.

20100182933 | Method And Switching Device For Stack Port Configuration - The invention provides a method and switching device for configuring stack ports. A switching device in a stacking system searches in the neighbor information table to determine whether the neighbor ID carried in a stack link negotiation packet is contained in the table after it receives the stack link negotiation packet on one of its physical ports that is enabled with the stacking function. If the neighbor ID is contained in the table, the switching device adds the physical port to the stack port corresponding to the neighbor ID in the neighbor information table; if it is not contained in the table, the switching device creates a stack port not in use, creates a binding between the neighbor ID and the stack port, and adds the physical port to the stack port. The present invention can automatically configure stack ports, greatly reducing the configuration work of administrators, and avoiding stacking device faults caused by manual configuration errors at the same time. | 07-22-2010 |
20100174740 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING PACKETS IN THE NETWORK - The present invention provides a method and apparatus for packet transmission in the network. When the network device receives data packets from the first user, the network device extracts and saves the data encapsulated in the data packets and then forwards the packets according to the destination addresses of the data packets. When it receives the request from a second user for the data mentioned above, it encapsulates the saved data in data packets and sends the data packets to the second user. With the present invention deployed, the uploaded data packets are saved on network devices and can be directly transmitted to users requesting them. In this way, the present invention avoids repeated traffic upload, reduces upload traffic in the network, decreases network bandwidth occupied by traffic, and thus improves the overall network performance. | 07-08-2010 |
