Abstract
The present invention relates to a Layer 2 adapter selecting system, including a Layer 3 packet requirements extracting module, a destination Layer 2 address acquiring module, a Layer 2 adapter metric acquiring module, an appropriate Layer 2 adapter identifier selecting module, a packet caching module and a packet scheduling module; wherein the packet caching module is configured to cache a received Layer 3 packet; the Layer 3 packet requirements extracting module is configured to read the Layer 3 packet and extract the type and a parameter value of the requirements; the Layer 2 adapter metric acquiring module is configured to acquire instant metric parameter values of each of the adapters; the appropriate Layer 2 adapter identifier selecting module calculates an adapter identifier and a Layer 3 packet metric; the destination Layer 2 address acquiring module is configured to acquire a Layer 2 address of each of the adapters associated with a destination Layer 3 address; and the packet scheduling module calls an external Layer 2 adapter driver, and the Layer 2 adapter driver completes packaging and sending of the packet. The present invention may solve the problem of resource waste of multiple links, so that the multiple links may be used dynamically in parallel.
