Abstract:
Embodiments of this application disclose a data processing method and a device, so that a controller can also participate in a procedure of electing an active switch, thereby avoiding a problem in the prior art caused by a registration failure when an active switch determined by means of switch election registers with a controller, and improving active switch election efficiency. The method in the embodiments of this application includes: receiving, by a controller, registration requests of multiple switches in a same stack system, where the multiple switches include a target switch; and if the controller determines that the target switch meets a registration success condition, sending, by the controller, a registration success message to the target switch, and selecting the target switch as an active switch.

Claim (Index 4):
The data processing method according to  claim 2 , wherein the actual stack information is an identifier set of switches in the stack to which the target switch actually belongs, the identifier set of the switches in the stack to which the target switch actually belongs comprises an identifier of the target switch, and after the querying, by the controller, for actual stack information of the target switch, the method further comprises:\n querying, by the controller, for the preset stack information according to the identifier of the target switch, wherein the preset stack information is an identifier set of switches in the stack to which the target switch is preset to belong; determining, by the controller, whether the actual stack information of the target switch matches the preset stack information of the controller; if the identifier set of the switches in the stack to which the target switch actually belongs matches the identifier set of the switches in the stack to which the target switch is preset to belong, determining, by the controller, that the actual stack information of the target switch matches the preset stack information of the controller; and if the identifier set of the switches in the stack to which the target switch actually belongs does not match the identifier set of the switches in the stack to which the target switch is preset to belong, determining, by the controller, that the actual stack information of the target switch does not match the preset stack information of the controller.
