This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201910208350.X filed on Mar. 19, 2019, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
This application relates to the field of computer technologies, and in particular, to a network performance detection method and a related apparatus.
As network services have larger impact on people's life, some network services have a higher requirement for network performance. For example, network services such as voice and video services are comparatively sensitive to a packet loss ratio and latency in network performance, but a download service is less sensitive to the latency and packet loss ratio. Therefore, how to detect network performance in a timely manner is a comparatively important issue.
Currently, in a network performance detection method, a service packet needs to be marked. For example, a first terminal makes some modifications to a packet on which statistics need to be collected, and a second terminal identifies these modifications, and then performs statistical analysis on the received packet. It can be learned that packet modifications are further required in the detection method, and consequently network performance detection is comparatively complex.
This application provides a network performance detection method and a related apparatus, to help simplify network performance detection.
According to a first aspect, this application provides a network performance detection method. In the network performance detection method, a first device may collect, based on identification information of a received data packet, statistics on data packets having same identification information, to obtain packet block information corresponding to the identification information; and send the packet block information to a second device when statistics collection of the packet block information corresponding to the identification information is completed, to determine packet block quality information corresponding to the identification information. In particular, the identification information includes a flow identifier and a block identifier, and the flow identifier includes a source Internet Protocol (IP) address, a source port, a destination IP address, and a destination port of the data packet; and the block identifier is a higher N-bit value of an IP identification (IPID) field in the data packet, where N is a positive integer less than a total bit quantity of the IPID field. For example, when N is equal to 8, statistics collection and reporting can be performed for a packet block of a maximum of 256 packets, and packet block quality information can be obtained without a need to modify a data packet. This helps simplify network performance detection.
In addition, in this application, statistics on the data packets are collected based on the block identifier, namely, the higher N-bit value of the IPID field in the data packet, so that statistics collection and reporting can be performed for a packet block of a maximum fixed quantity of packets without a need to determine a statistical interval for reporting a packet based on a synchronization status of a sliding window. Further, this helps simplify network performance detection.
In this application, the packet block information may include start time, end time, a total packet quantity, and a total byte quantity; the start time is receiving time at which the first device receives a first data packet having the identification information; the end time is receiving time at which the first device receives a last data packet having the identification information; the total packet quantity is a total quantity of data packets having the identification information that are received by the first device; and the total byte quantity is a total quantity of bytes of the data packets having the identification information that are received by the first device. Therefore, this helps determine the packet block quality information based on the packet block information.
In an optional implementation, that the first device collects, based on the data packets having the same identification information, statistics on the packet block information corresponding to the identification information may include updating, by the first device, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information when the identification information of the data packet already exists; or creating, by the first device, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information when the identification information of the data packet does not exist. For example, when the first device receives one data packet, if identification information carried in the data packet already exists in a packet block information table obtained through statistics collection, a total packet quantity corresponding to the identification information in the packet block information table increments by 1. Correspondingly, a quantity of bytes of the data packet is added to a total byte quantity corresponding to the identification information, to obtain updated packet block information corresponding to the identification information. For another example, when the first device receives one data packet, if identification information carried in the data packet does not exist in a packet block information table obtained through statistics collection, the identification information may be added to the packet block information table, a total packet quantity corresponding to the identification information is recorded as 1, a total byte quantity is a quantity of bytes of the data packet, and start time corresponding to the identification information is receiving time of the data packet, or the like. It can be learned that packet block information corresponding to each piece of identification information can be obtained by using the foregoing statistical method, to help determine packet block quality information based on packet block information that corresponds to identification information and that is reported by each first device, and further help obtain a status of network performance.
In an optional implementation, the creating, by the first device, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information when the identification information of the data packet does not exist includes, when the flow identifier of the data packet does not exist, creating, by the first device, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information, where the start time in the packet block information is receiving time of the data packet; or when the flow identifier of the data packet exists, but the block identifier does not exist, creating, by the first device, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information, where the start time in the packet block information is receiving time of the data packet. In other words, the identification information includes the flow identifier and the block identifier, and data packets having a same flow identifier may have different block identifiers. Therefore, for a same flow identifier, the obtained packet block information table includes packet block information corresponding to a plurality of block identifiers. To be specific, for data packets having a same flow identifier, packet block information is determined in a statistical unit of a maximum of 256 data packets corresponding to a block identifier, to avoid complexity of determining a statistical interval based on a sliding window.
In an optional implementation, that a first device sends the packet block information to a second device when statistics collection of the packet block information corresponding to the identification information is completed includes, when receiving a next data packet and determining that identification information of the next data packet does not exist, determining, by the first device, that the statistics collection of the packet block information corresponding to the identification information is completed; and sending, by the first device, the packet block information to the second device. In other words, when first identification information of a received first data packet already exists, packet block information corresponding to the first identification information is updated; when second identification information of a received second data packet does not exist, it indicates that statistics collection of data packets having the first identification information is completed, and the packet block information corresponding to the first identification information may be reported.
According to a second aspect, this application further provides a network performance detection method. A difference between the network performance detection method and the network performance detection method in the foregoing aspect lies in that the network performance detection method in this aspect is described by using a second device as an execution body. For example, the second device may be an analysis device. Correspondingly, a first device may be a reporting device, for example, each access switch. For example, the analysis device can receive packet block information that corresponds to each piece of identification information and that is reported by each reporting device, to determine packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information.
In the network performance detection method, after receiving the packet block information that corresponds to each piece of identification information and that is reported by each first device, the second device searches for a plurality of pieces of packet block information having same identification information, and determines, based on the plurality of pieces of packet block information having the same identification information, the packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information, where the packet block quality information may include a packet loss ratio, a bit loss ratio, a latency, and the like. The identification information includes a flow identifier and a block identifier, and the flow identifier includes a source IP address, a source port, a destination IP address, and a destination port of a data packet; and the block identifier is a higher N-bit value of an IPID field in the data packet, where N is a positive integer less than a total bit quantity of the IPID field. Therefore, the packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information may be determined based on the packet block information corresponding to each piece of identification information, to help obtain a status of network performance based on the packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information. In this application, the status of network performance can be obtained even when no information in a data packet is modified, so that network performance detection can be effectively simplified. For example, N may be equal to 8, and the total bit quantity of the IPID is 16. In this application, the packet block quality information can be determined for a maximum of 256 packets. This helps avoid determining a statistical interval based on a sliding window, and further simplify statistics collection.
Correspondingly, the packet block information includes start time, end time, a total packet quantity, and a total byte quantity; the start time is receiving time at which each first device receives a first data packet having the identification information; the end time is receiving time at which each first device receives a last data packet having the identification information; the total packet quantity is a total quantity of data packets having the identification information that are received by each first device; and the total byte quantity is a total quantity of bytes of the data packets having the identification information that are received by each first device. It can be learned that the packet block information helps obtain packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information.
In an optional implementation, that the second device determines, based on the plurality of pieces of packet block information having the same identification information, the packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information may include, for the plurality of pieces of packet block information having the same identification information, calculating, by the second device based on a difference between total packet quantities in the plurality of pieces of packet block information, a packet loss ratio between a plurality of first devices that report the plurality of pieces of packet block information; calculating a bit loss ratio between the plurality of first devices based on a difference between total byte quantities in the plurality of pieces of packet block information; and calculating a latency between the plurality of first devices based on a difference between start time or a difference between end time in the plurality of pieces of packet block information.

Terms used in embodiments of this application are merely used to explain specific embodiments of the present disclosure, but are not intended to limit the present disclosure.
To simplify network performance detection, the embodiments of this application provides a network performance detection method based on a network structure shown in
The network structure shown in
In the embodiments of this application, a data packet is a data unit exchanged and transmitted over a network, and may also be referred to as a data block. The data packet may include a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packet or a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) packet. An IPID is a field in the data packet and has a length of 16 bits. The field is an identity of the data packet. IPID fields in data packets sent by a same host are in ascending order, to help an access switch collect statistics on the data packets.
In the embodiments of this application, the identification information includes the flow identifier and the block identifier. The flow identifier includes a source IP address, a source port, a destination IP address, and a destination port of the data packet. The block identifier is a higher N-bit value of the IPID field in the data packet, where N is a positive integer less than a total bit quantity of the IPID field. Data packets having a same flow identifier may have different block identifiers. Therefore, statistics on the data packets are collected based on the identification information. For example, when N is equal to 8, and the total bit quantity of the IPID is 16, one piece of packet block information may be determined for a maximum of 256 packets. In other words, Block id=IPID % 256, where % is modulo operator. For example, the block identifier Block ID corresponding to the IPID includes Block 0, Block 1, Block 2, . . . , or Block 255, where Block 0 corresponds to data packets whose IPIDs is 0x0000 to 0x00ff, Block 1 corresponds to data packets whose IPIDs is 0x0100 to 0x01ff, . . . , and Block 255 corresponds to data packets whose IPIDs is 0xff00 to 0xffff.
The packet block information includes start time, end time, a total packet quantity, and a total byte quantity. The start time is receiving time at which the first device receives a first data packet having the identification information. The end time is receiving time at which the first device receives a last data packet having the identification information. The total packet quantity is a total quantity of data packets having the identification information that are received by the first device. The total byte quantity is a total quantity of bytes of the data packets having the identification information that are received by the first device. Correspondingly, the packet block quality information includes a packet loss ratio, a bit loss ratio, a latency, and the like.
Based on the network structure shown in
101. Leaf1 and Leaf2 each determine identification information of a received data packet.
102. Leaf1 and Leaf2 each collect, based on data packets having same identification information, statistics on packet block information corresponding to the identification information.
103. Leaf1 and Leaf2 each send the packet block information to an analysis device when statistics collection of packet block information corresponding to each piece of identification information is completed.
The packet block information is used to determine packet block quality information corresponding to the identification information.
104. The analysis device receives the packet block information that corresponds to each piece of identification information and that is sent by Leaf1 and Leaf2, and searches the packet block information corresponding to each piece of identification information for a plurality of pieces of packet block information having same identification information.
105. The analysis device determines, based on the plurality of pieces of packet block information having the same identification information, packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information.
The packet block quality information includes a packet loss ratio, a bit loss ratio, a latency, and the like.
Leaf1 is used as an example. As shown in Table 1, the packet block information includes a reporting node, a flow identifier Flow_id, a block identifier Block id, start time Start, end time End, a total packet quantity Packets, and a total byte quantity. The reporting node is a device that sends the packet block information to the analysis device, that is, is each first device.
In an optional implementation, that Leaf1 and Leaf2 each collect, based on data packets having same identification information, statistics on packet block information corresponding to the identification information may include updating, by Leaf1 and Leaf2 each, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information when the identification information of the data packet already exists; or creating, by Leaf1 and Leaf2 each, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information when the identification information of the data packet does not exist.
For example, in Table 1, if identification information of a data packet received by Leaf1 is (Flow_1, Block_0), Leaf1 updates End to receiving time, such as 09:14:01, of the data packet, updates Packets from 10 to 11, and updates Bytes from 10k to 11k based on a size of the data packet, that is, 1k.
In an optional implementation, the creating, by Leaf1 and Leaf2 each, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information when the identification information of the data packet does not exist includes, when the flow identifier of the data packet does not exist, creating, by Leaf1 and Leaf2 each, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information, where the start time in the packet block information is receiving time of the data packet; or when the flow identifier of the data packet exists, but the block identifier does not exist, creating, by Leaf1 and Leaf2 each, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information, where the start time in the packet block information is receiving time of the data packet. For example, when identification information of a data packet received by Leaf1 is (Flow_1, Block_1), but there is no packet block information corresponding to the identification information in Table 1, the packet block information corresponding to the identification information shown in Table 1 may be created, including: Start: 09:14:01; End: 09:14:01; Packets: 1; Bytes: 2k.
In an optional implementation, that Leaf1 and Leaf2 each send the packet block information to the analysis device when statistics collection of the packet block information corresponding to the identification information is completed includes, when receiving a next data packet and determining that identification information of the next data packet does not exist, determining, by Leaf1 and Leaf2 each, that the statistics collection of the packet block information corresponding to the identification information is completed; and sending, by Leaf1 and Leaf2 each, the packet block information to the second device. For example, in Table 1, when receiving a data packet whose identification information is (Flow_1, Block_1), Leaf1 may report packet block information corresponding to (Flow_1, Block_0) to the analysis device.
In an optional implementation, that the analysis device determines, based on the plurality of pieces of packet block information having the same identification information, packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information may include, for the plurality of pieces of packet block information having the same identification information, calculating, by the analysis device based on a difference between total packet quantities in the plurality of pieces of packet block information, a packet loss ratio between Leaf1 and Leaf2 that report the plurality of pieces of packet block information; calculating a bit loss ratio between Leaf1 and Leaf2 based on a difference between total byte quantities in the plurality of pieces of packet block information; and calculating a latency between Leaf1 and Leaf2 based on a difference between start time or a difference between end time in the plurality of pieces of packet block information.
For example, the packet block information that corresponds to the same identification information and that is reported by Leaf1 and Leaf2 is shown in Table 2 and Table 3, respectively, and the analysis device calculates the packet loss ratio Loss Packets being 1/99 according to a difference between total packet quantities in Table 2 and Table 3: 99−98=1; calculates the bit loss ratio Loss Bytes being 1/99 according to a difference between total byte quantities in Table 2 and Table 3: 99k−98k=1k; and calculates the latency between Leaf1 and Leaf2 being 1s according to start time, namely, 09:14:00, of a data packet having the identification information and start time, namely, 09:14:01, at which the data packet received by Leaf1 at the start time arrives at Leaf2. Optionally, the analysis device may output a result shown in Table 4 for the packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information, so that an analyst determines network performance based on the packet block quality information corresponding to each piece of identification information.
It can be learned that in the network performance detection method in this embodiment of this application, statistics on packet block information are collected based on identification information, to calculate packet block quality information, so that statistics collection and reporting can be performed for a packet block of a maximum of 256 packets, and the packet block quality information can be obtained without a need to modify a data packet. This helps simplify network performance detection.
The foregoing parameters included in the packet block information obtained through statistics collection are an example. Alternatively, another parameter may be included in this embodiment of this application. This is not limited. Correspondingly, the obtained packet block quality information may include but is not limited to the foregoing quality parameters. In addition, in this embodiment of this application, only a higher N-bit value of an IPID is used as a block identifier, and statistics on packet block information are collected based on a bit quantity obtained by subtracting N bits from a total bit quantity of the IPID. For example, in this embodiment of this application, the IPID includes 16 bits in total, and N is equal to 8, so that the statistics on the packet block information are collected for a maximum of 256 data packets. A size of a statistical unit for packet block information is not limited in this embodiment of this application.
In this embodiment of this application, the packet block information includes start time, end time, a total packet quantity, and a total byte quantity. The start time is receiving time at which the first device receives a first data packet having the identification information. The end time is receiving time at which the first device receives a last data packet having the identification information. The total packet quantity is a total quantity of data packets having the identification information that are received by the first device.

The total packet quantity is a total quantity of data packets having the identification information that are received by each first device. The total byte quantity is a total quantity of bytes of the data packets having the identification information that are received by each first device.
