This invention relates generally to data networking, and more particularly, to performing longest prefix match forwarding lookups using a combination of longest prefix match table and an exact match table with specific prefix lengths.
A network element with multiple interfaces can route data from one network to another network by receiving the data, analyzing the data, and deciding which interface to transmit the data and which next hop rewrite to perform on the packet. In particular, if the data is stored in a packet, the network element determines the transmission interface by analyzing a destination address stored in the packet header. The network element lookups a match for the destination address in a forwarding table to determine both which interface the network element will transmit the packet and which next hop rewrite to perform. The forwarding information is stored in a forwarding table. Each entry in the forwarding table includes an address subnet and an interface and a next hop rewrite, which is a next hop. The subnet is a subdivision of a network and is represented by a range of network addresses, or addresses.
Various structures can be used to store entries for a forwarding table. For example, a longest prefix match table can be used to store the forwarding table entries. In this example, the network element performs a lookup to determine which of the entries match using the longest prefix match table. Longest prefix match tables can be implemented in a few different ways which are sometimes expensive in terms of chip area and power.
A method and apparatus of a device that determines a match for a destination address using an exact match table and a longest prefix match table of a network element is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the network element receives a data packet that includes a destination address. The network element generates a key for the destination address, wherein the key represents more addresses than the destination address. The network element further performs an address lookup using the key in an exact match table. Furthermore, a match in the address lookup indicates a first next hop. The network element additionally performs an address lookup using the destination address with a longest prefix match table, wherein a match in the address lookup indicates a second next hop. In addition, the network element determines a resulting next hop based on results from the exact match table address lookup and the longest prefix match address lookup. The network element forwards the data packet using the next hop.
Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
The present invention is illustrated by way of example and not limitation in the figures of the accompanying drawings in which like references indicate similar elements.
A method and apparatus of a device that determines a match for a destination address using an exact match table and a longest prefix match table of a network element is described. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth to provide thorough explanation of embodiments of the present invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art, that embodiments of the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known components, structures, and techniques have not been shown in detail in order not to obscure the understanding of this description.
Reference in the specification to “one embodiment” or “an embodiment” means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearances of the phrase “in one embodiment” in various places in the specification do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment.
In the following description and claims, the terms “coupled” and “connected,” along with their derivatives, may be used. It should be understood that these terms are not intended as synonyms for each other. “Coupled” is used to indicate that two or more elements, which may or may not be in direct physical or electrical contact with each other, co-operate or interact with each other. “Connected” is used to indicate the establishment of communication between two or more elements that are coupled with each other.
The processes depicted in the figures that follow, are performed by processing logic that comprises hardware (e.g., circuitry, dedicated logic, etc.), software (such as is run on a general-purpose computer system or a dedicated machine), or a combination of both. Although the processes are described below in terms of some sequential operations, it should be appreciated that some of the operations described may be performed in different order. Moreover, some operations may be performed in parallel rather than sequentially.
The terms “server,” “client,” and “device” are intended to refer generally to data processing systems rather than specifically to a particular form factor for the server, client, and/or device.
A method and apparatus of a device that determines a match for a destination address using an exact match table and a longest prefix match table of a network element is described. In one embodiment, the device uses a destination address to update the forwarding table using specific prefix length keys and to make forwarding decisions for a destination address in a packet to be processed. In one embodiment, the forwarding table of the device includes two different tables: an exact match table and a longest prefix match table. In this embodiment, the exact match table is a table of forwarding entries that is used for an exact match address lookup of the destination address. The exact match address lookup determines a match if the specific lookup which might only include a subset of the destination Internet Protocol (IP) address matched with an entry in the exact match table. For an exact match address lookup, there is one match but a couple of results might be encoded for adjacent route lookups. In one embodiment, the device stores routes in the exact match table with specific prefix lengths. For example and in one embodiment, the device stores routes that are 22-24 bits long. Each of the entries includes a key and a result. In this embodiment, the key is a data element that is used to find the result in the exact match table and the result is a next hop for a destination address matching that key.
On the other hand, for a longest prefix match address lookup, an address may match many different entries in the longest prefix match table. A longest prefix match address lookup returns the forwarding entry that has the longest prefix match to the address that is used for the lookup. For example and in one embodiment, if one forwarding entry can match 16 bits of an address and another forwarding entry matches 24 bits of an address, the second forwarding entry is used for the longest prefix match.
In another embodiment, the device makes a forwarding decision by receiving a packet that includes a destination address. The device generates a key from the destination address. In one embodiment, the device masks the lower m bits of the destination address to generate a N-bit key. For example and in one embodiment, the device receives a 32-bit destination address, the device generates a 24-bit key by masking the lower 8 bits of the destination address. The device uses this key to perform a lookup with the exact match table. In another embodiment, the device can also perform a longest prefix match addressed lookup using the destination concurrently with the exact match address lookup using the address. In this embodiment, the device may get a result from the exact match address lookup, the longest prefix match, or both. In one embodiment, if the device receives a result from the exact match address lookup, the device uses this result for the forwarding decision of the packet. If there is both exact match address lookup and a longest prefix match address lookup result, the device will use the exact match address lookup result. If there is no exact match address lookup result and there is a longest prefix match address lookup result, the device uses the longest prefix match address lookup result for the forwarding decision of the packet. The device uses this selected result to make a forwarding decision.
In one embodiment, the forwarding table can include forwarding information. For example and in one embodiment, the routing table stores routing table entries for the one or more routing protocols that is used by the hardware forwarding engine, by using any of the running protocols known in the art such as routing information protocol (RIP), border gateway protocol (BGP), open shortest path first (OSPF), intermediate system-intermediate system (IS-IS), interior gateway routing protocol (IGRP), enhanced IGRP (EIGRP), and any/or other type or unicast routing protocol known in the art. In another embodiment, the forwarding table can store routing information for Internet Protocol (IP) v4 and IPv6 addresses. In one embodiment, the forwarding table applies to virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) where the VRF identifier is part of the key being looked up in both the longest prefix match table and the exact match table.
As described above, the forwarding table can be stored in software (e.g., the network element's main memory) or can be stored in hardware (e.g., specialized fast-performing hardware data structure such as a ternary content-addressable memory (TCAM), a multi-level trie, or another type of specialized memory). In one embodiment, the exact match table is implemented as a hash table in hardware. The Longest prefix match table can be implemented in a variety of ways including combinations of TCAM and memory or multi-level hash table). Storing the forwarding table in software leads to poor performance. Hardware storage of the forwarding table leads to better performance but the specialized memory is expensive both in terms of cost and the power requirement. Thus, the network element 100 will tend to use a smaller amount of the specialized memory.
In one embodiment, each forwarding table entry includes an address or address range (e.g., a subnet) and a next hop. In one embodiment, the next hop is an interface that is used by the network element 100 to transmit a packet with an address that matches this forwarding entry. In this embodiment, network element 100 can include two different types tables to store the forwarding information: a longest prefix match table and an exact match table. For a given destination address, the network element 100 performs address lookups on the destination address using both tables. Based on these results, the network element decides which address lookup result to use. In one embodiment, the network element 100 performs these address lookups concurrently.
In one embodiment, the EMT 204 is used to perform address lookups for matches with specific prefix lengths. In one embodiment, an address prefix length is the number of bits set in the mask of the address. In one embodiment, the EMT 204 is used by looking up a single prefix length but effectively storing different key prefixes. For example and in one embodiment, entries can be stored for 22, 23, and 24 bit prefixes or entries with different length prefixes but the exact match lookup is done for 23 bit length. In this example, routes with 24 bit prefixes (e.g., /24) can be a common route stored in a forwarding table. To use the EMT 204 for address lookups, the network element generates a key of up to N bits of the destination address and uses this key to perform the exact match address lookup. In one embodiment, the network element can generate multiple keys from the same destination address and use these keys to perform multiple exact match address lookup for that destination address. These lookups with different prefix lengths could be done in different exact match tables or in the same one provided the lookup for different prefix lengths were distinguished key that is also part of the exact match lookup. For example, if the forwarding engine performs both a 23 and 19 bit prefix lookup the lookup for the 23 bit would be 1′b0 followed by the first 23 bits of the destination IP address then all zeroes afterwards and the lookup for 19 bits would be 1′b1 followed by the first 19 bits of the destination IP address and then all zeroes. In one embodiment, performing multiple lookups (e.g., using EMT 204 and LPM 202) and/or with multiple keys, there is the potential for multiple address lookup results. In this embodiment, the forwarding engine 102 determines which lookup results are to be used for the destination address.
In another embodiment, the EMT 204 can store multiple results in a single exact match table entry. If the exact match result is wider than the nexthop encoding or if the exact match table lookup is limited to fewer possible nexthops, the forwarding engine 102 encodes a power of 2 nexthops per exact match table lookup. In this embodiment, the forwarding engine 102 uses more bits from the destination address lookup to resolve which one of the actual nexthops is chosen. For example and in one embodiment, say a lookup for a /24 key in the EMT 204 is performed, where an entry is encoded with two nexhops per result, the forwarding engine 102 can encode 2 adjacent /25 routes as a single entry in the hash table. The forwarding engine 102 then uses bit 25 of the destination address to resolve which of the nexhops to use.
Furthermore, and in one embodiment, the forwarding engine 102 can store shorter prefixes using multiple table entries in the EMT 204. Assuming that the forwarding engine 102 performs lookups using 24-bit keys (e.g., looking up /24 routes in the hash table), the forwarding engine 102 could store prefixes shorter than /24 routes using multiple EMT 204 entries. For example and in one embodiment, a /23 route can be stored in the EMT 204 by inserting 2 /24 route entries in the EMT 204 by expanding the shorter /23 prefix into the two /24 prefixes. Similarly, for a /22 route, the network element expands the /22 route into 4 /24 routes.
As described above, the forwarding engine 102 also includes a longest prefix match table, LPM table 202. In one embodiment, the LPM table 202 is used to store forwarding entries for a longest prefix match type of address lookup. In this embodiment, a longest prefix match address lookup may match multiple entries in the LPM table 202. A longest prefix match address lookup returns the entry that has the longest prefix match to the address that is used for the lookup. For example and in one embodiment, if one forwarding entry can match 16 bits of an address and another forwarding entry matches 24 bits of an address, the second forwarding entry is used for the longest prefix match. In one embodiment, the LPM table 202 is stored in a TCAM, so that some or all on the entries in the LPM table can be searched concurrently. In one embodiment, the forwarding engine 102 uses the destination addresses for the address lookup with the LPM table 202.
As described above, the forwarding engine 102 can use two different types of address lookups: an exact match address lookup using a key lookup with the EMT 204 and a longest prefix match address lookup using the address with the LPM table 202. In one embodiment, the forwarding engine 102 can perform both address lookups concurrently. As will be described below, the forwarding engine 102 determines a next hop for a destination address by performing the key-based exact match address lookup and also performing a longest prefix match address lookup with the destination address. In this embodiment, the forwarding engine 102 takes the results of the two address lookups and decides which result to use for the next hop decision. In one embodiment, the forwarding decision module 210 performs one or both of the address lookups to determine a next hop for the destination address. In one embodiment, if the forwarding engine 102 performs the two address lookups concurrently by overlapping the time periods in which the two address lookups are performed. In one embodiment, if the exact match address lookup is preferred over the longest prefix match address lookup, the forwarding engine 102 may make sure that more specific routes are stored in the EMT 204 and not the LPM 202. In another embodiment, the forwarding engine 102 allows putting prefixes in the EMT 204 that have more specific prefixes underneath by encoding in the result of the LPM 202 length of the match and picking the appropriate result from the EMT 204 results or the LPM 202 based on the presence of hits on the EMT 204 lookups and the encoding of the LPM 202 result. The cost for this embodiment is that it limits the number nexthops that can be addressed from the LPM 202.
As described above, the EMT 204 can store different types of entries.
In one embodiment, the exact match entry 408A with a single entry includes a key and a single result for that key. For example and in one embodiment, exact match 408A includes the key 243.12.32.0/23 and the result for that key, nexthop E. In this example, a destination address in the range 243.12.32.1-243.12.33.255 can be mapped to this key, which returns the nexthop E as a match. In another example and embodiment, entry 408B has two results for the key 10.0.4.0/23. In this example, there is a result nexthop A for addresses in the range of 10.0.4.0/24 and nexthop B for addresses in the range of 10.0.5.0/24. Which result is used depends on the input destination address. For example, if the destination address was 10.0.4.25, then nexthop A is the result, whereas for a destination address was 10.0.5.36, then nexthop B is the result. As another example and embodiment, a match entry 408C with two results can have the same nexthop for both results. Entry 408C has two results for the key 243.12.32.0/23. In this example, there is a result nexthop E for addresses in the range of 243.12.32.0/24 and 243.12.33.0/24. Thus, an address in the range of 243.12.32.1-243.12.33.255 would match this result when the key 243.12.32.0/23 is used.
In a further example, the match entry 408D can be used to match a key with a shorter prefix than is used to store the entries. In this example, a key for a /22 route (e.g., 11.1.4.0/22) can be broken up into adjacent /23 keys (e.g., 11.1.4.0/23 and 11.1.6.0/23). Each of the /23 keys can be used to match a pair of /24 results. The key 11.1.4.0/23 gives results for 11.1.4.0/24 and 11.1.5.0/25 addresses with nexthop A. In addition, the key 11.1.4.0/23 gives the result of nexthop B for 11.1.6.0/24 and nexthop C for 11.1.7.0/25.
In one embodiment, process 500 determines the type of exact match lookup for the destination address at block 504. In one embodiment, the destination address is an N bit address that represents a single address, such as a 32-bit IPv4 address or a 128-bit IPv6 address. In this embodiment, process 500 further determines the type of key to be used for the exact match address lookup. In one embodiment, process 500 masks the lower m bits of the destination address to generate the key. For example and in one embodiment, if the destination address is 10.0.4.25, process 500 can mask the lower 8 bits of this 32-bit address to give a 24-bit, such as 10.0.4.0/24 key that is used to perform the exact match lookup. In another embodiment, the single destination address can be used to generate multiple keys. For example and in one embodiment, if the destination address is 10.0.4.25, process 500 can mask the lower 8 and 10 bits of this 32-bit address to generate two different keys: 10.0.4.0/24 and 10.0.4.0/22 keys. Each of these keys can be used to perform the exact match lookup. At block 506, process 500 performs an address lookup using an exact match table using the generated keys. In one embodiment, process 500 computes a hash for each of the generated keys and uses the computed hash(es) to lookup up the address in the exact match table. In another embodiment, process 500 can generate multiple keys form one address. Determining the lookup and generating the keys if further described in
If process 500 is performing an address lookup using the longest prefix match, process 500 performs the longest prefix match address lookup using the destination address at block 510. In one embodiment, a longest prefix match address lookup returns the entry that has the longest prefix match to the address that is used for the lookup as described in
At block 514, process 500 selects the results from the address lookup(s). If there is a result from the exact match table lookup or if there is a result from both the exact match and the longest prefix match lookups, process 500 selects the result from the exact match lookup. In one embodiment, the LPM lookup will return a result, which can be the default route. In one embodiment, there is one exact match route stored in the EMT. If there are no underlying more specific route that if the exact match lookup hits, then the exact match lookup is the more specific route possible. In another embodiment, the LPM result is used if the LPM result is more specific than the result in the exact match. For example and in one embodiment, the address maybe stored in a forwarding entry in the exact match table may be different than a match from a longest prefix match. In this example, an exact match address lookup may return that the next hop for an address is if1, while the longest prefix match may return a default route that has a next hop for if2. With the two results, since there is an exact match of the destination address, the exact match result is preferred instead of the default route result of the longest prefix match. If there is a longest prefix result, but no exact match entry, process 500 returns the result from the longest prefix match. At block 516, process 500 returns the selected result. In another embodiment, process 500 chooses the longest prefix match result over the exact match result. In one embodiment, the network element uses the result to determine the next hop for the packet with the destination address. In this embodiment, the network element transmits the packet using the interface in the result.
In order to be used for exact match address lookup, the EMT 204 needs to be populated. In one embodiment, the EMT 204 is populated with route coming from via user configuration, route announcements received from one or more different routing protocols, route statistics, first come-first serve, historical use with hysteresis to prevent churning, or another way to introduce/update routes into a forwarding table.
At block 704, process 700 determines the types of storage for this route. In one embodiment, how the route is stored depends on the length of prefix that is associated with the route. If the route is a 24-bit route, process 700 may store the route as a 24-bit route with a 24-bit key. Alternatively, process 700 may store the route as adjacent routes. For example and in one embodiment, if the route is a 22-bit route, process 700 may store the route as two adjacent 23-bit routes with two 23-bit keys, as described in
As shown in
Typically, the input/output devices 1115 are coupled to the system through input/output controllers 1113. The volatile RAM (Random Access Memory) 1109 is typically implemented as dynamic RAM (DRAM), which requires power continually in order to refresh or maintain the data in the memory.
The mass storage 1111 is typically a magnetic hard drive or a magnetic optical drive or an optical drive or a DVD ROM/RAM or a flash memory or other types of memory systems, which maintains data (e.g. large amounts of data) even after power is removed from the system. Typically, the mass storage 1111 will also be a random access memory although this is not required. While
Portions of what was described above may be implemented with logic circuitry such as a dedicated logic circuit or with a microcontroller or other form of processing core that executes program code instructions. Thus processes taught by the discussion above may be performed with program code such as machine-executable instructions that cause a machine that executes these instructions to perform certain functions. In this context, a “machine” may be a machine that converts intermediate form (or “abstract”) instructions into processor specific instructions (e.g., an abstract execution environment such as a “process virtual machine” (e.g., a Java Virtual Machine), an interpreter, a Common Language Runtime, a high-level language virtual machine, etc.), and/or, electronic circuitry disposed on a semiconductor chip (e.g., “logic circuitry” implemented with transistors) designed to execute instructions such as a general-purpose processor and/or a special-purpose processor. Processes taught by the discussion above may also be performed by (in the alternative to a machine or in combination with a machine) electronic circuitry designed to perform the processes (or a portion thereof) without the execution of program code.
The present invention also relates to an apparatus for performing the operations described herein. This apparatus may be specially constructed for the required purpose, or it may comprise a general-purpose computer selectively activated or reconfigured by a computer program stored in the computer. Such a computer program may be stored in a computer readable storage medium, such as, but is not limited to, any type of disk including floppy disks, optical disks, CD-ROMs, and magnetic-optical disks, read-only memories (ROMs), RAMs, EPROMs, EEPROMs, magnetic or optical cards, or any type of media suitable for storing electronic instructions, and each coupled to a computer system bus.
A machine readable medium includes any mechanism for storing or transmitting information in a form readable by a machine (e.g., a computer). For example, a machine readable medium includes read only memory (“ROM”); random access memory (“RAM”); magnetic disk storage media; optical storage media; flash memory devices; etc.
An article of manufacture may be used to store program code. An article of manufacture that stores program code may be embodied as, but is not limited to, one or more memories (e.g., one or more flash memories, random access memories (static, dynamic or other)), optical disks, CD-ROMs, DVD ROMs, EPROMs, EEPROMs, magnetic or optical cards or other type of machine-readable media suitable for storing electronic instructions. Program code may also be downloaded from a remote computer (e.g., a server) to a requesting computer (e.g., a client) by way of data signals embodied in a propagation medium (e.g., via a communication link (e.g., a network connection)).
The preceding detailed descriptions are presented in terms of algorithms and symbolic representations of operations on data bits within a computer memory. These algorithmic descriptions and representations are the tools used by those skilled in the data processing arts to most effectively convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art. An algorithm is here, and generally, conceived to be a self-consistent sequence of operations leading to a desired result. The operations are those requiring physical manipulations of physical quantities. Usually, though not necessarily, these quantities take the form of electrical or magnetic signals capable of being stored, transferred, combined, compared, and otherwise manipulated. It has proven convenient at times, principally for reasons of common usage, to refer to these signals as bits, values, elements, symbols, characters, terms, numbers, or the like.
It should be kept in mind, however, that all of these and similar terms are to be associated with the appropriate physical quantities and are merely convenient labels applied to these quantities. Unless specifically stated otherwise as apparent from the above discussion, it is appreciated that throughout the description, discussions utilizing terms such as “receiving,” “generating,” “determining,” “performing,” “forwarding,” “storing,” “identifying,” “updating,” or the like, refer to the action and processes of a computer system, or similar electronic computing device, that manipulates and transforms data represented as physical (electronic) quantities within the computer system's registers and memories into other data similarly represented as physical quantities within the computer system memories or registers or other such information storage, transmission or display devices.
The processes and displays presented herein are not inherently related to any particular computer or other apparatus. Various general-purpose systems may be used with programs in accordance with the teachings herein, or it may prove convenient to construct a more specialized apparatus to perform the operations described. The required structure for a variety of these systems will be evident from the description below. In addition, the present invention is not described with reference to any particular programming language. It will be appreciated that a variety of programming languages may be used to implement the teachings of the invention as described herein.
The foregoing discussion merely describes some exemplary embodiments of the present invention. One skilled in the art will readily recognize from such discussion, the accompanying drawings and the claims that various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
