Method and apparatus for sending route calculation information, device, and storage medium

An apparatus, used in a router, for sending route calculation information, the apparatus comprising:

• a data plane unit;
• and
• a control plane unit, wherein
• the control plane unit includes a basic routing layer module and a function routing layer module;
• the function routing layer module is configured to receive route calculation information from a previous-hop device, wherein
• the route calculation information includes service capability information of a computing container or computing capability information of the computing container,
• the computing capability information indicates a computing capability corresponding to the computing container,
• the service capability information indicates a service processing capability of the computing container,
• the route calculation information further includes a hotspot attribute value, and
• the hotspot attribute value indicates whether a service or an application corresponding to the route calculation information includes a hotspot service;
• the basic routing layer module is configured to obtain a shortest path tree including a shortest path from the router to each other router in a network;
• and
• the function routing layer module is further configured to:
• in association with the hotspot attribute value being greater than a hotspot threshold, send the route calculation information to each other router in the network corresponding to the shortest path tree.

An apparatus associated with a router, the apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory configured to store computer readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
• receive route calculation information from a previous-hop device, wherein the route calculation information includes service capability information of a computing container or computing capability information of the computing container, the route calculation information further includes a hotspot attribute value, and the hotspot attribute value indicates whether a service or an application corresponding to the route calculation information includes a hotspot service;
• obtain a shortest path tree including a shortest path from the router to each other router in a network;
• and
• in association with the hotspot attribute value being greater than a hotspot threshold, send the route calculation information to each other router in the network corresponding to the shortest path tree.
