Network performance parameter sending method, network performance calculation method, and network node
A network performance parameter sending method includes: obtaining, by a first network node, a segment identifier of a second network node in a segment list of a packet, where the second network node is a next-hop segment node of the first network node on a forwarding path of the packet; and adding, by the first network node, a network performance parameter of the first network node to the segment list, and then sending the packet to the second network node. In a process of forwarding the packet by using the segment list in the packet, the first network node uses the segment list to carry the network performance parameter of the network node.
1. A method for network performance calculation implemented by a second network node, wherein the method comprises:
receiving, from a first network node, a packet comprising a segment list, wherein a destination address of the packet matches a first segment identifier of the second network node, wherein the first segment identifier comprises a locator, a flag, and a function, and wherein the flag indicates a network performance parameter type;
replacing a value of the destination address with a second segment identifier that is of a third network node and that is in the segment list;
obtaining, according to the network performance parameter type, a network performance parameter;
adding the network performance parameter into the second segment identifier to create a modified packet; and
sending, to the third network node, the modified packet.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the network performance parameter type comprises a queue occupation type.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the network performance parameter type comprises a time type that indicates a packet sending time at which the second network node sends the modified packet.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the network performance parameter type comprises a quantity type of a quantity of packets that indicates a quantity of packets received by the second network node.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the queue occupation type indicates a queue depth of the second network node.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the flag is located between the locator and the function in the first segment identifier.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the flag comprises at least 7 bits.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising notifying the first segment identifier to a fourth network node without the flag.
9. A second network node comprising:
a memory configured to store instructions; and
one or more processors coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to cause the second network node to:
receive, from a first network node, a packet comprising a segment list, wherein a destination address of the packet matches a first segment identifier of the second network node, wherein the first segment identifier comprises a locator, a flag, and a function, and wherein the flag indicates a network performance parameter type;
replace a value of the destination address with a second segment identifier that is of a third network node and that is in the segment list;
obtain, according to the network performance parameter type, a network performance parameter;
add the network performance parameter into the second segment identifier to create a modified packet; and
send, to the third network node, the modified packet.
10. The second network node of claim 9 , wherein the network performance parameter type comprises a queue occupation type.
11. The second network node of claim 9 , wherein the network performance parameter type comprises a time type that indicates a packet sending time at which the second network node sends the modified packet.
12. The second network node of claim 9 , wherein the network performance parameter type comprises a quantity type of a quantity of packets that indicates a quantity of packets received by the second network node.
13. The second network node of claim 10 , wherein the queue occupation type indicates a queue depth of the second network node.
14. The second network node of claim 9 , wherein the flag is located between the locator and the function in the first segment identifier.
15. The second network node of claim 9 , wherein the flag is at least 7 bits.
16. The second network node of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to cause the second network node to notify the first segment identifier to a fourth network node without the flag.
17. A computer program product comprising computer-executable instructions that are stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium and that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a second network node to:
receive, from a first network node, a packet comprising a segment list, wherein a destination address of the packet matches a first segment identifier of the second network node, wherein the first segment identifier comprises a locator, a flag, and a function, and wherein the flag indicates a network performance parameter type;
replace a value of the destination address with a second segment identifier that is of a third network node and that is in the segment list;
obtain, according to the network performance parameter type, a network performance parameter;
add the network performance parameter into the second segment identifier to create a modified packet; and
send, to the third network node, the modified packet.
18. The computer program product of claim 17 , wherein the network performance parameter type comprises a queue occupation type.
19. The computer program product of claim 18 , wherein the type of the queue occupation type indicates a queue depth of the second network node.
20. The computer program product of claim 17 , wherein the flag is located between the locator and the function in the first segment identifier.
