Description

Method, equipment and the system of business recovery among a kind of WLAN WLAN
Technical field
The present invention relates to network communication field, relate in particular to method, equipment and the system of business recovery among a kind of WLAN WLAN.
Background technology
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network is called for short WLAN) is with the LAN of wireless channel as transmission medium.Generally include website (STAtion is called for short STA), access point (Access Point is called for short AP), access controller equipment such as (Access Controller are called for short AC) in the network configuration based on the WLAN technology.Wherein, the effect of AP is that STA and cable network are coupled together, and AC realizes the management to AP through wireless access point control and configuration (Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Point is called for short CAPWAP) agreement.
Usually, AP need be according to the CAPWAP agreement, follows state machine and AC and carries out repeatedly could reaching the standard grade from an AC after mutual.The last line process of AP comprises:
1) AP obtains Internet protocol (Internet Protocol the is called for short IP) address of self and AC.AP has multiple mode can obtain the IP address of AC; For example; Name server (Domain Name Server is called for short DNS) parsing, DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol is called for short DHCP) option, static ip address, broadcasting etc.
2) AP finds AC.After AP got access to the IP address of AC, AP sent and finds request message, and the CAPWAP state machine of AP gets into (Discovery) state of discovery.Receive the discovery response message of AC response as AP after, then begin to prepare to add this AC.
3) the AP request adds AC.Usually before AP adds AC; Need carry out datagram transmission layer security protocol (Datagram Transport Layer Security; Be called for short DTLS) checking; After the DTLS between AP and the AC shook hands success, the CAPWAP state machine of AP got into and adds (Join) state, and AP sends the message that joins request to AC.When AP receives the adding response message that AC responds, and object code (Result Code) be successfully (Success), and then this AC of AP adding successfully.
4) AP auto-update.After AP successfully added AC, whether the software version of more current operation earlier required the software version of operation consistent with AC; If consistent, then skip this step; If inconsistent, AP sends the edition data request message to AC, and the CAPWAP state machine of AP gets into edition upgrading (Image Data) state, and auto-update is carried out in request.After AC received the edition data request message, the CAPWAP state machine of AC got into edition upgrading (Image Data) state, and responded the edition data response message.AC sends to AP with new software through several edition data response messages.
5) AP configuration distributing.AP successfully adds AC, and the version of the current operation of AP and AC be when requiring the version of operation consistent, and AP sends configuration request message, and the CAPWAP state machine of AP gets into (Config) state of configuration.After AC received configuration request message, the CAPWAP state machine of AC got into configuration (Config) state, and responded configuration response message, and notice AP is configured on request.AP receives configuration response message, accomplishes configuration.
6) AP configure-ack.After AP received configuration response message, the CAPWAP state machine of AP got into data checks (Data Check) state, and sent transition stage event request (Change State Event Request) message report configuration implementation status.After AC receives Change State Event Request message; If current CAPWAP state machine is configuration (Config) state; Then state transfers data checks (Data Check) state to, and responds transition stage event response (Change State Event Response) message.After AP received Change State Event Response message, if current CAPWAP state machine is data checks (Data Check) state, then state transferred operation (Run) state to, and created the CAPWAP data channel, the beginning data forwarding.
7) transmit data through the CAPWAP data channel.AP regularly sends data channel keep-alive (Keepalive) message after getting into operation (Run) state, and whether inspection CAPWAP data channel operate as normal.AC receives the 1st keep-alive (Keepalive) message, if current be data checks (Data Check) state, then state transfers operation (Run) state to, and responds keep-alive (Keepalive) message.AP and AC transmit user data through the CAPWAP data channel.
The last line process of above-mentioned AP needs time of a few minutes usually.When abnormal failure appears in AP, when resuming work again after the for example of short duration power down, according to said process; The AP on-line time is long, and it is slow that customer service is recovered, if an AC manages a large amount of AP; For example hundreds and thousands of AP the time, the cost that AC administers and maintains AP is also very big.
