PACKET PROCESSING METHOD AND RELATED DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18487568 titled 'PACKET PROCESSING METHOD AND RELATED DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
Embodiments of this application disclose a packet processing method and a related device that aim to save access control list (ACL) resources. The method involves a first network device receiving a packet from a second network device through a tunnel between them. The first network device determines a reserved port that corresponds to a port of the tunnel and processes the packet based on this reserved port.
- The method aims to save ACL resources by using a reserved port for packet processing.
- The first network device receives a packet sent by a second network device through a tunnel.
- The first network device determines a reserved port that corresponds to a port of the tunnel.
- The packet is processed by the first network device based on the reserved port.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Network traffic management and optimization.
- Improved packet processing efficiency.
- Enhanced network security and access control.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient utilization of ACL resources.
- Streamlined packet processing in network devices.
- Simplified management of network tunnels.
Benefits of this technology:
- Reduced resource consumption and cost savings.
- Improved network performance and throughput.
- Enhanced security and access control capabilities.
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments of this application disclose a packet processing method and a related device, to save access control list resources. A first network device receives a packet sent by a second network device. The packet reaches the first network device through a tunnel between the first network device and the second network device. The first network device determines a reserved port that is of the first network device and that corresponds to a port of the tunnel. The first network device processes the packet based on the reserved port.
