Abstract:
A method for implementing load balancing, an apparatus, and a network system, where a controller obtains a port attribute of each port of a first switch in a mesh network, determines, according to the port attribute of each port of the first switch, a virtual routing and forwarding instance corresponding to each port of the first switch, where all user-side ports of the first switch correspond to a first virtual routing and forwarding instance, generates a forwarding table of the first switch according to a topology of the mesh network and the virtual routing and forwarding instance corresponding to each port of the first switch, where a first forwarding entry of the forwarding table includes the first virtual routing and forwarding instance, a destination network segment and at least two forwarding paths corresponding to the destination network segment, and sends the forwarding table to the first switch.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 8 , wherein before receiving the forwarding table, the method further comprises:\n receiving, by the first switch, a notification message from the controller; and sending, by the first switch, a discovery message from all ports of the first switch according to the notification message, the discovery message instructing a device that receives the discovery message to send a report message to the controller.
