In the working process, the protocol analysis module 110 receives the control instruction issued by the cloud controller, analyzes the control instruction and sends the control instruction to the service configuration module 120, and after receiving the analyzed control instruction sent by each protocol analysis module, the service configuration module 120 distributes the control instruction to the corresponding management protocol and issues the control instruction to the wireless driving module 130; the wireless driver module 130 receives the analyzed control command sent by the service configuration module, and acts the control command on the wireless chip 140 of the corresponding management protocol.
Based on the foregoing embodiment, in another embodiment, the wireless driving module 130 is further configured to feed back the parameters of the management object of the corresponding wireless chip 140 to the service configuration module according to the received control instruction; the service configuration module 120 is further configured to feed back the state parameters of each wireless chip fed back by the wireless driving module 130 to the protocol analysis module 110 of the corresponding management protocol; the protocol parsing module 110 is further configured to report the status parameter of the wireless chip 140 to the cloud controller 200 of the corresponding management protocol.
In an example, the management protocol includes a CAPWAP management protocol and an HTTP/HTTPs management protocol, and the wireless AP includes a wireless chip a (corresponding to the CAPWAP management protocol) and a wireless chip B (corresponding to the HTTP/HTTPs management protocol) in addition to a CAPWAP protocol parsing module and an HTTP/HTTPs protocol parsing module; the cloud controller comprises a CAPWAP protocol cloud controller and an HTTP/HTTPS protocol cloud controller.
In the working process, the CAPWAP protocol analysis module receives a control instruction (CAPWAP protocol message) issued by the cloud controller, completes the discovery of the cloud controller based on the CAPWAP protocol, and sends the control instruction to the service configuration module; and the service configuration module receives the control command sent by the cloud controller, converts the control command into an internal unified command format, and divides the management object of the wireless AP into different management protocols. The wireless driving module receives the control command sent by the service configuration module, changes the control command into a smaller instruction unit and then acts on the wireless chip A to enable the control command to take effect. Meanwhile, the wireless driving module feeds back the state of the register of the wireless chip A to the service configuration module; and further reporting the cloud data to a corresponding cloud controller through a CAPWAP protocol analysis module.
The HTTP/HTTPS protocol analysis module receives a control instruction (HTTP/HTTPS protocol message) issued by the cloud controller, maintains the heartbeat messages of the wireless AP and the cloud controller, and sends the control instruction to the service configuration module; and the service configuration module receives the control command sent by the cloud controller, converts the control command into an internal unified command format, and divides the management object of the wireless AP into different management protocols.

More specifically, in the above embodiment, the control instruction issued by the cloud controller includes a read command and a write command. Specifically, if the cloud controller issues a read command to the wireless AP, the protocol analysis module receives the read command and analyzes the read command, and the read command is converted into a uniform wireless service read command by the service configuration module and then issued to the wireless drive module. More specifically, if the read command is a register state instruction for reading a wireless chip corresponding to a corresponding management protocol and requires to return to a state of a management object of the wireless chip a corresponding to the CAPWAP protocol, the wireless drive module reads the register state of the wireless chip a and returns the read register state to the corresponding cloud controller after receiving the instruction; and if the state of the management object of the wireless chip B corresponding to the HTTP/HTTPS protocol is required to be returned, the wireless driving module reads the state of the register of the wireless chip B and returns the state to the corresponding cloud controller after receiving the instruction.
And if the cloud controller issues the write command to the wireless AP, the protocol analysis module receives the write command, analyzes the write command, converts the write command into a uniform wireless service read command through the service configuration module, and then issues the uniform wireless service read command to the wireless drive module. Specifically, if the write command is to configure parameters of a management object of the wireless chip a corresponding to the CAPWAP protocol, the wireless driver module writes the corresponding parameters into a register of the wireless chip a after receiving the write command; if the write command is specifically a parameter configuring a management object of the wireless chip B corresponding to the HTTP/HTTPs protocol, the wireless driver module writes the corresponding parameter into a register of the wireless chip B after receiving the write command.
