Abstract:
1. A message synchronization method, comprising: obtaining a first sending time stamp of a first message transmitted on a main link, and obtaining a second sending time stamp of a first message transmitted on a backup link; calculating a time difference between the first sending time stamp and the second sending time stamp according to the first sending time stamp and the second sending time stamp; adding bytes in the first message transmitted on the main link and the first message transmitted on the backup link, setting the time difference in the types, and forming a second message to be transmitted on the main link and a second message to be transmitted on the backup link respectively; and sending the second messages to a receiving end respectively on the main link and the backup link, so that when errors occur in the second message transmitted on the main link, the receiving end modifies a second receiving time stamp on the backup link according to the time difference in the second message transmitted on the backup link, and removes the added byte to obtain the first message.
