Description

Configuration acquisition methods and zero configuration access point, neighboring access point
Technical field
The present invention relates to the data configuration technical field, be specifically related to dispose acquisition methods and zero configuration access point, neighboring access point.
Background technology
Wireless access point control and supply (CAPWAP, Controlling and Provisioning ofWireless Access Point) be a kind of access point (AP, Access Point) with access controller (AC, Access Controller) communications protocol between, CAPWAP uses User Datagram Protoco (UDP) (UDP, User Datagram Protocol) as bearing protocol in the IP network; The CAPWAP agreement is the main tool that AC management AP and AP carry out data forwarding.
Netted (MESH) technology is at the international (IEEE of IEEE, The Instituteof Electrical and Electronic Engineer) a kind of medium access control (MAC that defines in the P802.11s draft, Media Access Control) layer technology, be replenishing to standardized 802.11 WLAN (wireless local area network) (WLAN, Wireless Local Area Network) MAC technology already.The wireless Mesh netword model is to utilize wireless connections to substitute wired connection a plurality of AP are coupled together, and it has, and deployment is quick, extensibility is strong, the advantage of high reliability.
Fig. 1 is a simple MESH network diagram, at first provides following two notions:
AP zero configuration state: when AP is initial, without any configuration, be in uncontrollable state, can't move the state of any business.
AP non-zero configuration status: AP and AC set up after the CAPWAP passage, from the AC download configuration, are subjected to the state of AC control and management.
As shown in Figure 1, AC links to each other by wired ethernet with AP1, and AP1 and AC set up the CAPWAP passage, downloads and the operation configuration from AC.Other AP as: AP2~5 utilize the MESH wireless technology, earlier set up two layers of link with AP1, set up the CAPWAP passage with AC again, from the AC download configuration, enter operating state.
Fig. 2 enters the flow chart of operating state for existing AP from the zero configuration state, and as shown in Figure 2, its concrete steps are as follows:
Step 201: the AP (being made as AP0) that is in the zero configuration state can set up the neighbor AP tabulation of two layers of link by scanning discovery.
Step 202:AP0 selects a neighbor AP successively from the neighbor AP tabulation, set up interim two layers of link with this neighbor AP.
Step 203:AP0 obtains an IP address, uses the two layer link of this IP address by setting up, and sounds out with AC and sets up the CAPWAP passage.
If AP0 self disposes the IP address, then AP0 uses this IP address and AC to set up the CAPWAP passage; If AP0 self is configuration of IP address not, then AP0 can ask Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server to distribute an IP address, uses the IP address and the AC that are assigned to set up the CAPWAP passage.
It is to be noted, because AP0 does not also know that AC supports IPv4 or IPv6 address, therefore, if AP0 use initial IP address as: IPv4 or IPv6 address and AC set up the CAPWAP passage and fail, then can change another kind of IP address as IPv6 or IPv4 address, reattempt with AC and set up the CAPWAP passage,, then think and to set up the CAPWAP passage with this AC if do not set up successfully yet.
Step 204:AP0 judges whether the CAPWAP passage sets up success, if, execution in step 205; Otherwise, execution in step 206.
Step 205:AP0 goes up download configuration by the CAPWAP passage of setting up from this AC, enters operating state, and this flow process finishes.
Step 206:AP0 discharges current interim two layers of link, returns step 202.
From flow process shown in Figure 2 as can be seen, the AP0 that is in the zero configuration state is in order to obtain the configuration of self, need set up interim two layers of link one by one with the neighbor AP in the neighbor list, sound out the operation of setting up three layers of passage of CAPWAP with AC again after setting up two layers of link, AP0 is possibly through setting up temporary link with a plurality of neighbor AP like this, and sound out set up the CAPWAP passage after, just can find can download configuration AC, can relate to and obtain the IP address and sound out the process set up the CAPWAP passage, the IP address of souning out the AC support is IPv4 or IPv6 address or the like operation, thereby it is longer to cause AP0 to enter time of operating state, sometimes above 10 minutes.
For example: Fig. 3 enters the exemplary plot of operating state from the zero configuration state for existing AP, as shown in Figure 3, AP4 is in the zero configuration state, AP1 is related with AC1, AP2 is related with AC2, Fat AP3 is not related with any AC, AP4 is by scanning discovery neighbor AP: AP1, AP2, AP3, AP4 sets up temporary link and sets up the CAPWAP passage by this temporary link exploration with each neighbor AP successively according to the channel order at each neighbor AP place, if AP4 is configured on the AC2, and AP4 sets up the order of temporary link be: AP1, AP3, AP2, like this, AP0 will set up three temporary links and carry out three times and sound out, and could successfully set up CAPWAP passage and download configuration, enters operating state.
