The unicast referred by the invention is an IP message sent to a designated IP address (non-multicast address) through a UDP/TCP protocol; the broadcast is referred to as an IP packet sent to a multicast address (typically 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255) via UDP/TCP.
A typical network topology diagram of an embodiment of the present invention is shown in fig. 1, and is used to represent a typical application scenario of the present invention, in the diagram, the entire communication system includes a switch, a device, and a device upgrade server, where the device upgrade server is physically connected to other devices to be upgraded after accessing a network. In the figure, devices A, B, C all access the same switch, and this access method is commonly used in networks, and in this connection, device a and device B, C are in a network broadcast domain, and are links with each other, such as optical fiber, cable, satellite, etc., with a communication transmission rate of 1Mdps or more. Device a and device D, E, F are connected by a network of other devices of the communication system, which are not typically in a broadcast domain, and may have narrowband links with each other.
The device upgrading process of the embodiment of the invention is shown in the attached figure 2, except for the software design of the device upgrading server, the invention adds an upgrading processing module, a device discovery module, a broadcast multicast processing module and a unicast processing module in the device in the network to respectively complete the upgrading function of the device, the receiving and forwarding function of the discovery message of the user, the receiving and processing and forwarding function of the upgrade self-adaptive protocol multicast and the receiving and processing and forwarding function of the upgrade self-adaptive protocol unicast.
The equipment upgrading process of the embodiment of the invention is shown in the attached figure 3, the equipment upgrading mainly comprises three processes, and the specific execution process under each process is as follows:
and A, discovering the devices in the network through device broadcasting or manual configuration, and sending an instruction to be upgraded to each device through unicast. The first step of the equipment upgrading mode is to complete the collection of equipment information to accurately master the equipment information to be upgraded, and the invention designs two modes to discover the equipment in the communication system, wherein the mode is that a user manually inputs the IP address of the equipment to be upgraded through a user interface; and the second mode is that each device responds to the multicast by sending a full-network multicast form through software to discover the devices in the network, and the implementation of the mode depends on a multicast processing module in the device, and after receiving a device discovery message, the module sends the version, the upgrading time and the device electric quantity information of the module to a device upgrading server through an IP unicast message.
And after the terminal is found, the equipment upgrading server sends an instruction to be upgraded to each equipment to be upgraded, wherein the instruction comprises the neighbor discovery timeout time.
And B, when the equipment to be upgraded receives the instruction to be upgraded sent by the equipment upgrading server through the unicast processing module, sending a neighbor discovery message through the broadcast multicast processing module, wherein the destination address of the message is set as the broadcast address of the IP section of the equipment to be upgraded.
The equipment to be upgraded monitors the broadcast address all the time through the broadcast multicast processing module, records the IP address when receiving neighbor discovery messages sent by other neighbor equipment, finally sets a timeout operation mechanism according to the timeout time sent by the upgrade server, and reports all the received neighbor IP addresses to the equipment upgrade server after the timeout.
And C, the device upgrade server receives the information returned by all the devices to be upgraded and calculates independent network domain groups according to the neighbor information of each device, such as that the device A, B, C is in one domain and the device D, E, F is in one domain in FIG. 1. And electing a random device of each network domain group as a device to be sent with an upgrade file, after the election is completed, the device upgrade server sends the upgrade file to each device to be sent with the upgrade file in a unicast mode, and sends a piece of unicast information after the upgrade file is sent, wherein the unicast information comprises an instruction for entrusting the device to send the upgrade file to a neighbor device by broadcasting, and the instruction for entrusting the upgrade cannot be sent under the condition that only one device exists in the network domain.
When the equipment to be upgraded by unicast receives the upgrade file sent by the equipment upgrade server, the software of the equipment is upgraded by the upgrade processing module, and after the order of entrusting upgrade is received, the broadcast multicast processing module directly sends out the latest upgrade file of the equipment through the broadcast IP address. Under the condition, the neighbor nodes can receive the upgrade file and carry out normal upgrade.
The equipment upgraded by unicast sends an upgrade success instruction to the equipment upgrade server, the equipment receiving the upgrade file by broadcast upgrade sends an upgrade success instruction to the equipment sending broadcast, and the equipment receiving the upgrade success instruction sent by the neighbor forwards the instruction to the equipment upgrade server.
