Abstract
This application provides a method for obtaining an application-aware networking identifier and a related device. The method includes: A second device configured to manage an application-aware networking identifier resource sends a first message to a first device, where the first message includes a first application-aware networking identifier. After receiving the first message, the first device includes the first application-aware networking identifier in a sent first packet, to indicate application information to which the first packet belongs.
Claims20
A network device applied to a first device, comprising:
- one or more memories configured to store instructions;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories and configured to execute the instructions, wherein execution of the instructions causes the network device to:
- receive a first message sent by a second device, wherein the first message comprises a first application-aware networking identifier and the first application-aware networking identifier is an application-aware networking identifier in an application-aware networking identifier resource;
- and
- send a first packet, wherein the first packet carries the first application-aware networking identifier, and the first application-aware networking identifier indicates application information to which the first packet belongs.
A network device, comprising:
- one or more memories configured to store instructions;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories and configured to execute the instructions, wherein execution of the instructions causes the network device to:
- obtain a first application-aware networking identifier from an application-aware networking identifier resource;
- and
- send a first message comprising the first application-aware networking identifier to a first device, wherein the first application-aware networking identifier indicates application information to which a first packet belongs.
A communication system, comprising a first device and a second device, wherein
- the first device is configured to:
- receive a first message sent by the second device, wherein the first message comprises a first application-aware networking identifier, the second device is configured to manage an application-aware networking identifier resource, and the first application-aware networking identifier is an application-aware networking identifier in the application-aware networking identifier resource;
- and
- send a first packet, wherein the first packet carries the first application-aware networking identifier, and the first application-aware networking identifier indicates application information to which the first packet belongs;
- and
- the second device is configured to:
- obtain the first application-aware networking identifier from the application-aware networking identifier resource;
- and
- send the first message comprising the first application-aware networking identifier to a first device.
