Abstract

A method for forwarding a vector packet processing (VPP) is applicable to a forwarding path. The forwarding path includes an Ethernet entrance, a data plane development kit (DPDK) input end, an entrance labeling-and-categorizing plug-in unit, one or more intermediate nodes, a Tx output end, an exit labeling-and-categorizing plug-in unit, and an Ethernet exit. The vector packet processing forwarding method includes: executing a learning-and-recording mode for a preceding packet to obtain a learning result, and in the learning-and-recording mode, having the preceding packet entirely pass through the forwarding path; and executing an optimized acceleration mode for a subsequent packet, and in the optimized acceleration mode, based on the learning result, having the subsequent packet detour some intermediate nodes of the one or more intermediate nodes in the forwarding path.
