Detailed Description
It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration management system according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The configuration management system includes: the wireless access point control system comprises a switch 101, a wireless controller 102 and a first wireless access point 103, wherein the switch 101 is connected with the wireless controller 102, and a port of the switch 101 is connected with the first wireless access point 103;
the switch 101 is configured to send a current port identifier to the wireless controller 102, where the current port identifier corresponds to a port of the switch 101;
the wireless controller 102 is configured to, when receiving the current port identifier, search for a corresponding first configuration file according to the current port identifier in a first mapping relationship, and send the first configuration file to the first wireless access point 103, where the first mapping relationship includes a correspondence relationship between the port identifier and the configuration file;
the first wireless access point 103 is configured to, when receiving the first configuration file, implement network configuration according to the first configuration file.
It can be understood that, in order to meet the requirement of issuing the configuration file to the wireless access point by the wireless controller, the prior art mostly adopts a manner that the wireless controller stores the configuration file and manages the issuing of the configuration file uniformly, but there is inevitably a problem that the first wireless access point 103 needs to be reactivated when the first wireless access point 103 is moved, by adopting a manner of binding the port of the switch 101 with the first wireless access point 103 in the wireless controller 102, if the first wireless access point 103 is pulled out and then plugged in, because the first wireless access point 103 is mapped with the port of the switch 101, the first wireless access point 103 does not need to be reactivated, and the operation is more convenient.
In a specific implementation, when a port of the switch 101 is connected to the first wireless access point 103, the switch 101 sends a current port identifier to the wireless controller 102, where the current port identifier corresponds to the port of the switch 101, in other words, the switch 101 notifies the wireless controller 102 of a specific port where the switch 101 is physically connected to the first wireless access point 103, that is, the switch 101 sends the current port identifier to the wireless controller 102.
Further, another method may be adopted for the switch 101 to notify a specific port, where the switch 101 is configured to send a current port identifier to the first wireless access point 103, where the current port identifier corresponds to a port of the switch 101; the first wireless access point 103 is configured to send the current port identifier to the wireless controller 102 when receiving the current port identifier sent by the switch 101. That is, the sender of the current port id to the wireless controller 102 may be the switch 101 or the first wireless access point 103.
It should be understood that, the wireless controller 102 is configured to, when receiving the current port identifier, search a corresponding first configuration file according to the current port identifier in a first mapping relationship, and send the first configuration file to the first wireless access point 103, where the first mapping relationship includes a corresponding relationship between a port identifier and a configuration file. Since the wireless controller 102 pre-stores a first mapping relationship, where the first mapping relationship includes a corresponding relationship between the port identifier and the configuration file, in other words, the wireless controller 102 sets a corresponding relationship between each port and different configuration files, when the wireless controller 102 receives the current port identifier, the corresponding configuration file is found through the corresponding relationship, and is sent to the corresponding first wireless access point 103. It is easy to think that, since the configuration file is obtained according to the port correspondence, the functional characteristic of plug and play can be realized as long as the inserted switch port is not changed no matter how the first wireless access point 103 is moved.
Of course, when the first wireless access point 103 receives the first configuration file, the network configuration may be implemented according to the first configuration file. The configuration file is used to configure parameters such as a system name, an interface configuration mode, a wireless network mapping, and a Service Set Identifier (SSID) of the first wireless access point 103.
It can be understood that, although the configuration file is still stored in the wireless controller, because the corresponding relationship between the switch port and the configuration file of the wireless access point is established, the wireless access point becomes a radio frequency unit under the switch 101, and the subsequent management work of the configuration file is processed by taking the switch 101 as a management unit, so that the performance consumption applied to the management function is transferred, and the cost of deployment and maintenance is greatly reduced. For ease of understanding, the switch 101 may be named as a thin switch, corresponding to the naming principle of a fat AP and a thin AP, because the switch is no longer independently operated and configured, and can be uniformly managed and configured by and used with the controller.
Further, the switch 101 is further configured to generate port identifiers according to the switch 101 identifier corresponding to the switch 101, where the port identifiers correspond to ports of the switch 101, respectively.
It is understood that, in order to use each port identifier of the switch 101, when the switch 101 is initialized or when a specific port is started, each port identifier may be generated according to a switch identifier corresponding to the switch 101, where each port identifier corresponds to each port of the switch 101, and the switch identifier is used to uniquely identify a switch device, for example, the switch identifier may be a unique device identification number assigned to the switch 101 by a manufacturer. For example, if the switch id is number 10245 and there are 32 physical ports of the switch 101, each port id corresponding to each port of the switch 101 may be M, where M is equal to or greater than 1024501 and is equal to or less than 1024532, and M is a positive integer.
In this embodiment, by establishing the corresponding relationship between the switch port and the configuration file of the wireless access point, the wireless access point has a plug-and-play function, and the technical problem that the configuration of the wireless access point needs to be reset according to the change of the wireless access point is better solved, so that the change of the network topology has stronger adaptability.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration management system according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and the configuration management system according to the second embodiment of the present invention is proposed based on the embodiment illustrated in fig. 1.
The switch 101 'is further configured to send broadcast information, where the broadcast information includes a first device identifier of the switch 101';
the wireless controller 102 ' is further configured to find the switch 101 ' according to the first device identifier when receiving the broadcast information sent by the switch 101 ', and send the second device identifier of the wireless controller 102 ' to the switch 101 ', so as to implement communication between the switch 101 ' and the wireless controller 102 '.
It can be understood that before the wireless controller 102 ' issues the configuration file to the first wireless access point 103, a communication channel between the wireless controller 102 ' and the switch 101 ' may be established in advance, and generally, in order to implement data exchange between the wireless controller 102 ' and the switch 101 ', a global scan may be performed on devices in the Network first, and after a new device is found by the scan, a unified Management is performed through an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). For example, device discovery is performed in a network through a protocol such as SNMP, so that the wireless controller 102 'can discover the switch 101' in the same network, and a tunnel between the wireless controller 102 'and the switch 101' can be established to implement communication between the wireless controller 102 'and the switch 101'. However, this method has a significant problem that the behavior of global scanning for devices in the Network will greatly consume the operating performance of the devices, and the translated Network addresses cannot be spanned, that is, the discovery method cannot implement Network Address Translation (Network Address Translation).
It can be understood that a common way is that a network device such as the switch 101 ' is to be found, and the present embodiment adopts a way that the switch 101 ' actively finds the wireless controller 102 ' and applies for activation, so as to overcome the waste of device performance caused by frequent scanning, and at the same time, overcome the NAT problem.
In a specific implementation, the switch 101 ' sends broadcast information, where the broadcast information includes a first device identifier of the switch 101 ', and then, when receiving the broadcast information sent by the switch 101 ', the wireless controller 102 ' finds the corresponding switch 101 ' according to the first device identifier, and sends a second device identifier of the wireless controller 102 ' to the switch 101 ', so as to implement communication between the switch 101 ' and the wireless controller 102 '. The first device identifier of the switch 101 'may be an internet protocol Address (IP Address) of the switch 101', and the second device identifier of the wireless controller 102 'may be an IP Address of the wireless controller 102'. In other words, before the wireless controller 102 ' issues the configuration file to the first wireless access point 103, if the networking mode of the wireless network is the interconnection of three types of network devices, i.e. the switch 101 ', the wireless controller 102 ' and the first wireless access point 103, even if the physical lines of the switch 101 ' and the wireless controller 102 ' are interconnected, there will be a process of discovering each other between the switch 101 ' and the wireless controller 102 '. The mutual discovery process may refer to a Control And Provisioning protocol (CAPWAP) of the Wireless Access point, may understand the switch 101 ' as the first Wireless Access point 103 in the CAPWAP protocol performing a role, And after the switch 101 ' accesses the network, will actively send a discovery request (discovery request) in the network, since the IP address of the Wireless controller 102 ' is not yet known, the discovery request is sent in a broadcast form, And after the Wireless controller 102 ' receives the broadcast information, will send a reply to the switch 101 '. The broadcast information includes an IP address of the switch 101 ', and the reply includes an IP address of the wireless controller 102', so that the switch 101 'obtains the second device identifier of the wireless controller 102', and the communication condition between the switch 101 'and the wireless controller 102' is satisfied.
Of course, before the switch 101 ' does not know the IP address of the wireless controller 102 ', the switch 101 ' will implement the present embodiment in a manner of transmitting broadcast information, but is not limited to this manner. The IP addresses of a plurality of wireless controllers 102 'can be pre-stored in the switch 101', the mutual discovery of the devices can be completed in a unicast mode by determining one of the IP addresses, and finally, the communication between the switch 101 'and the wireless controller 102' is realized. Therefore, the switch 101 'is further configured to determine a first preset device identifier from the plurality of preset device identifiers, and send a discovery request to the wireless controller 102' corresponding to the first preset device identifier, where the discovery request includes the first device identifier of the switch 101 ', and the wireless controller 102' establishes a communication tunnel according to the discovery request, so that device discovery in a unicast form is realized according to this method.
In the embodiment, the establishment of the tunnel between the switch and the wireless controller and the activation of the switch are realized by actively sending the broadcast information to the wireless controller through the switch, so that the power consumption of the equipment is reduced and the problem of crossing NAT is solved compared with the common mode that the wireless controller scans network equipment to establish the tunnel.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration management system according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and the configuration management system according to the third embodiment of the present invention is proposed based on the embodiment shown in fig. 1.
The configuration management system further comprises: a second wireless access point 104, the switch 101 being connected to the second wireless access point 104;
the wireless controller 102 ″ is further configured to, when an online request sent by the second wireless access point 104 is received, extract a third device identifier of the second wireless access point 104 from the online request, search a corresponding current wireless access point identifier in a second mapping relationship according to the third device identifier, obtain a corresponding second configuration file according to the current wireless access point identifier when the current wireless access point identifier is found, and send the second configuration file to the second wireless access point 104, where the second mapping relationship includes a correspondence relationship between the device identifier and the wireless access point identifier;
the second wireless access point 104 is configured to, when receiving the second configuration file, implement network configuration according to the second configuration file.
It will be appreciated that in order to facilitate the acquisition of the configuration file by the wireless access point, the correspondence between the device identification and the wireless access point identification may be established such that when a new wireless access point joins the wireless network, the configuration may be completed using the configuration file of the wireless access point that was used.
In a specific implementation, when the second wireless Access Point 104 joins the wireless network, in order to obtain a configuration file, the second wireless Access Point 104 may send an uplink request to the wireless controller 102 ", where the uplink request includes a third device Identifier of the second wireless Access Point 104, where the third device Identifier may be a hardware Address (MAC Address) or a MAC Address of the second wireless Access Point 104, and since a second mapping relationship is pre-stored in the wireless controller 102", the second mapping relationship is used to store a corresponding relationship between a device Identifier and a wireless Access Point Identifier, for example, the second mapping relationship may be a corresponding relationship between a MAC Address of a wireless Access Point and an Identifier of a wireless Access Point, where the wireless Access Point Identifier is used for the wireless controller 102 "to distinguish different wireless Access points, and the common expression form of the wireless Access Point Identifier in each vendor is an Access Point Identifier (Access Point Identifier, AP ID) may be an integer of 0 to 255, which is not limited in the present embodiment.
It should be understood that, in the second mapping relationship, the corresponding current wireless access point identifier is searched according to the third device identifier, and when the current wireless access point identifier is found, the corresponding second configuration file is obtained according to the current wireless access point identifier, in other words, there may be a corresponding relationship between one device identifier, one wireless access point identifier, and one configuration file in this embodiment. It should be distinguished that, in this embodiment, a corresponding relationship between the three is introduced, and a specific search flow of the corresponding relationship is to search the identifier of the wireless access point through the device identifier, and then search the configuration file according to the identifier of the wireless access point, and through the specific search flow, the beneficial effect that the new wireless access point can directly use the configuration file of the old wireless access point is brought, and it is not necessary to re-establish the configuration file.
For example, when a new wireless access point is added to the wireless network, the new wireless access point is called a device a, and the old wireless access point is called a device b, the user wants the device a to directly use the configuration file of the device b, and since the device b that has been operated before or is operating has a wireless access point mark, such as a wireless access point mark of 22, the wireless access point mark of the device a can be also modified to 22, and then the wireless access point mark of the device a is consistent with the wireless access point mark of the device b. Then, the device a can obtain the configuration file corresponding to the identifier 22 according to the wireless access point identifier 22, and the configuration file obtained at this time is the configuration file used by the device b, so that the new wireless access point can directly use the configuration file of the old wireless access point.
Of course, the manner of obtaining the configuration file in the third embodiment of the configuration management system may also be a supplementary method to the manner of obtaining the configuration file in the first embodiment of the configuration management system, and when the method in the first embodiment does not successfully receive the first configuration file, the method in the third embodiment may be used as a measure for secondary obtaining, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Further, when the wireless access point joins the wireless network, the second mapping relationship may be preset to facilitate subsequent use. Wherein the second wireless access point 104 is further configured to send an activation request to the wireless controller 102 "; the wireless controller 102 ″ is further configured to, when receiving an activation request sent by the second wireless access point 104, extract the third device identifier from the activation request, establish a corresponding relationship between the third device identifier and a preset wireless access point identifier, and add the corresponding relationship to the second mapping relationship.
It is understood that the second wireless access point 104 can find the wireless access point identifier corresponding to the MAC address according to the MAC address because the wireless access point identifier can be set in advance or the correspondence between the MAC address and the wireless access point identifier can be set in advance.
In a specific implementation, the second wireless access point 104 sends an activation request to the wireless controller 102 ", where the activation request includes a third device identifier of the second wireless access point 104. Then, when receiving an activation request sent by the second wireless access point 104, the wireless controller 102 ″ extracts the third device identifier of the second wireless access point 104 from the activation request, establishes a corresponding relationship between the third device identifier of the wireless controller 102 ″ and a preset wireless access point identifier, and adds the corresponding relationship to the second mapping relationship. The wireless access point identifier may be generated according to an own algorithm of the wireless controller 102 ″, and after the wireless access point identifier is generated, a corresponding relationship may be established between the wireless access point identifier and the MAC address.
First, if a third device identifier, that is, an MAC address, of the second wireless access point 104 never appears in the wireless network, the second wireless access point 104 may obtain a preset wireless access point identifier to establish a corresponding relationship between the MAC address and the preset wireless access point identifier;
secondly, there are various ways to obtain the preset wireless access point identifier, for example, a new wireless access point identifier generated according to an own algorithm of the wireless controller may exist, but the new wireless access point identifier generated in this way may not have an association with the configuration file in the wireless controller 102 ″, because the new wireless access point identifier, for example, 40, may never appear in the wireless controller 102 ″, only 21 integers of the wireless access point identifier from 0 to 20 are stored in the wireless controller 102 ″, and only the correspondence between the 21 integers and the configuration files may be stored in the wireless controller 102 ″.
Further, in order to overcome the problem that a new wireless access point identifier may not be associated with a configuration file in the wireless controller 102 ″, after the wireless controller 102 ″ extracts the third device identifier of the second wireless access point 104 from the activation request, a substitute device identifier is determined from the third device identifier in a preset device identifier set, and the substitute device identifier is used as a new third device identifier. In other words, the wireless access point identifier 40 does not have a corresponding profile in the wireless controller 102 ", but the wireless access point identifier 6 has a corresponding profile in the wireless controller 102", and the second wireless access point 104 corresponding to the user plan identifier 40 uses the same profile as the wireless access point corresponding to the wireless access point identifier 6, i.e. the wireless access point identifier of the second wireless access point 104 is given by 40 as 6, then the profile corresponding to the wireless access point identifier 6 can be used.
In this embodiment, a corresponding relationship between the device identifier and the wireless access point identifier is established, and the wireless access point identifier can be changed so that the new device can complete configuration by using the configuration file of the old device, thereby effectively reducing the workload of repeated configuration.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a configuration management method according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
In a first embodiment, the configuration management method comprises the steps of:
step S10: when a port of a switch is connected with a first wireless access point, the switch sends a current port identifier to a wireless controller, wherein the current port identifier corresponds to the port of the switch;
it can be understood that, in order to meet the requirement of issuing the configuration file to the wireless access point by the wireless controller, the prior art mostly adopts a mode that the wireless controller stores the configuration file and uniformly manages the issuing of the configuration file, but there is inevitably a problem that the first wireless access point needs to be reactivated when the first wireless access point is moved.
In specific implementation, when a port of the switch is connected to the first wireless access point, the switch sends a current port identifier to the wireless controller, where the current port identifier corresponds to the port of the switch, in other words, the switch notifies the wireless controller of a specific port of the switch that is physically connected to the first wireless access point, that is, the switch sends the current port identifier to the wireless controller.
Further, another method may be adopted for notifying a specific port by the switch, where the switch is configured to send a current port identifier to the first wireless access point, where the current port identifier corresponds to a port of the switch; and the first wireless access point is used for sending the current port identifier to the wireless controller when receiving the current port identifier sent by the switch. That is, the sender sending the current port identification to the wireless controller may be either the switch or the first wireless access point.
Step S20: when the wireless controller receives the current port identifier, searching a corresponding first configuration file in a first mapping relation according to the current port identifier, and sending the first configuration file to a first wireless access point, wherein the first mapping relation comprises the corresponding relation between the port identifier and the configuration file;
it should be understood that, when receiving the current port identifier, the wireless controller searches a corresponding first configuration file according to the current port identifier in a first mapping relationship, and sends the first configuration file to the first wireless access point, where the first mapping relationship includes a corresponding relationship between the port identifier and the configuration file. Because the wireless controller pre-stores a first mapping relationship, the first mapping relationship includes a corresponding relationship between the port identifier and the configuration file, in other words, the wireless controller sets a corresponding relationship between each port and different configuration files, when the wireless controller receives the current port identifier, the corresponding configuration file is found through the corresponding relationship, and the configuration file is sent to the corresponding first wireless access point. It is easy to think that, since the configuration file is obtained according to the port correspondence, the functional characteristic of plug and play can be realized as long as the inserted switch port is unchanged no matter how the first wireless access point is moved.
Step S30: and when the first wireless access point receives the first configuration file, realizing network configuration according to the first configuration file.
Of course, when the first wireless access point receives the first configuration file, the first wireless access point may implement network configuration according to the first configuration file. The configuration file is used for configuring parameters such as a system name, an interface configuration mode, a wireless network mapping and a Service Set Identifier (SSID) of the first wireless access point.
It can be understood that, although the configuration file is still stored in the wireless controller, because the corresponding relationship between the switch port and the configuration file of the wireless access point is established, the wireless access point becomes a radio frequency unit under the switch, and the subsequent management work of the configuration file is processed by taking the switch as a management unit, so that the performance consumption applied to the management function is transferred, and the cost of deployment and maintenance is greatly reduced. For convenience of understanding, the switch may be named as a thin switch corresponding to the naming principle of the fat AP and the thin AP, because the switch is no longer independently operated and configured, and can be uniformly managed and configured by the controller and used together with the controller.
Further, the switch sends the current port identification to the wireless controller. The switch generates each port identification according to the switch identification corresponding to the switch, and each port identification corresponds to each port of the switch respectively.
It can be understood that, in order to use each port identifier of the switch, when the switch is initialized or when a specific port is started, each port identifier may be generated according to a switch identifier corresponding to the switch, where each port identifier corresponds to each port of the switch, respectively, and the switch identifier is used to uniquely identify a switch device, for example, the switch identifier may be a unique device identification number assigned to the switch by a manufacturer. For example, if the switch identifier is number 10245 and there are 32 physical ports of the switch, each port identifier corresponding to each port of the switch may be M, where M is equal to or greater than 1024501 and is equal to or less than 1024532, and M is a positive integer.
In this embodiment, by establishing the corresponding relationship between the switch port and the configuration file of the wireless access point, the wireless access point has a plug-and-play function, and the technical problem that the configuration of the wireless access point needs to be reset according to the change of the wireless access point is better solved, so that the change of the network topology has stronger adaptability.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a configuration management method according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and the configuration management method according to the second embodiment of the present invention is proposed based on the embodiment illustrated in fig. 4.
In the second embodiment, step S10 is preceded by:
step S101: the switch sends broadcast information, wherein the broadcast information comprises a first equipment identifier of the switch;
it can be understood that, before the wireless controller issues the configuration file to the first wireless access point, a communication channel between the wireless controller and the switch may be established in advance, and generally, in order to implement data exchange between the wireless controller and the switch, global scanning may be performed on devices in a network first, and after new devices are found by scanning, unified Management is performed through an SNMP Protocol (simple network Management Protocol). For example, device discovery is performed in a network through a protocol such as SNMP, so that a wireless controller can discover a switch in the same network, and a tunnel between the wireless controller and the switch can be established to realize communication between the wireless controller and the switch. However, this method has a significant problem that the behavior of global scanning for devices in the Network will greatly consume the operating performance of the devices, and the translated Network addresses cannot be spanned, that is, the discovery method cannot implement Network Address Translation (Network Address Translation).
It can be understood that a common way is that a network device such as a switch is to be found, and the present embodiment adopts a way that the switch actively finds a wireless controller and applies for activation, so as to overcome the waste of device performance caused by frequent scanning, and at the same time, overcome the NAT problem.
In a specific implementation, the switch sends broadcast information, where the broadcast information includes a first device identifier of the switch, and then, when receiving the broadcast information sent by the switch, the wireless controller finds the corresponding switch according to the first device identifier, and sends a second device identifier of the wireless controller to the switch, so as to implement communication between the switch and the wireless controller.
Step S102: and when receiving the broadcast information sent by the switch, the wireless controller searches the switch according to the first equipment identifier and sends the second equipment identifier of the wireless controller to the switch so as to realize communication between the switch and the wireless controller.
It can be understood that the first device identifier of the switch may be an Internet Protocol Address (IP Address) of the switch, and the second device identifier of the wireless controller may be an IP Address of the wireless controller. In other words, before the wireless controller issues the configuration file to the first wireless access point, if the networking mode of the wireless network is the interconnection of three types of network devices, namely the switch, the wireless controller and the first wireless access point, even if the physical lines of the switch and the wireless controller are interconnected, there is a process of mutual discovery between the switch and the wireless controller. The mutual discovery process may refer to a Control And configuration Protocol (CAPWAP) of the Wireless Access point, the switch may be understood as a first Wireless Access point in the CAPWAP Protocol to perform a role, after the switch accesses the network, the switch may actively send a discovery Request (discovery Request) in the network, And since the IP address of the Wireless controller is not known yet, the discovery Request may be sent in a broadcast form, And after the Wireless controller receives the broadcast information, the switch may send a reply. The broadcast information comprises an IP address of the switch, and the reply comprises the IP address of the wireless controller, so that the switch can obtain the second equipment identifier of the wireless controller, and the communication condition between the switch and the wireless controller is also met.
Of course, the switch will implement this embodiment in a manner of sending broadcast information until the switch does not know the IP address of the wireless controller, but is not limited to this manner. The IP addresses of a plurality of wireless controllers can be preserved in the switch in advance, the mutual discovery of the devices is completed in a unicast mode by determining one IP address, and finally the communication between the switch and the wireless controllers is realized. Therefore, the switch is further configured to determine a first preset device identifier from the plurality of preset device identifiers, and send a discovery request to the wireless controller corresponding to the first preset device identifier, where the discovery request includes the first device identifier of the switch, and the wireless controller establishes a communication tunnel according to the discovery request, so that device discovery in a unicast mode is realized according to the method.
In the embodiment, the establishment of the tunnel between the switch and the wireless controller and the activation of the switch are realized by actively sending the broadcast information to the wireless controller through the switch, so that the power consumption of the equipment is reduced and the problem of crossing NAT is solved compared with the common mode that the wireless controller scans network equipment to establish the tunnel.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a configuration management method according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and the configuration management method according to the third embodiment of the present invention is proposed based on the embodiment shown in fig. 4.
In the third embodiment, step S30 is followed by:
step S301: when receiving an online request sent by a second wireless access point, the wireless controller extracts a third device identifier of the second wireless access point from the online request, searches a corresponding current wireless access point identifier according to the third device identifier in a second mapping relation, obtains a corresponding second configuration file according to the current wireless access point identifier when finding the current wireless access point identifier, and sends the second configuration file to the second wireless access point, wherein the second mapping relation comprises a corresponding relation between the device identifier and the wireless access point identifier;
it will be appreciated that in order to facilitate the acquisition of the configuration file by the wireless access point, the correspondence between the device identification and the wireless access point identification may be established such that when a new wireless access point joins the wireless network, the configuration may be completed using the configuration file of the wireless access point that was used.
Certainly, the occurrence time of step S301 in this embodiment is not limited to be after step S30 occurs, the technical solution provided in this embodiment may be a supplement to the technical solution provided in the first embodiment of the configuration management method, and when the step S30 is not successful, that is, the wireless access point does not successfully implement the network configuration, the technical solution provided in this embodiment is started to implement the network configuration again, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In a specific implementation, when a second wireless Access point joins a wireless network, in order to obtain a configuration file, the second wireless Access point may send an online request to a wireless controller, where the online request includes a third device Identifier of the second wireless Access point, where the third device Identifier may be a hardware Address (MAC Address) of the second wireless Access point, that is, an MAC Address, and since a second mapping relationship is pre-stored in the wireless controller, the second mapping relationship is used to store a corresponding relationship between a device Identifier and a wireless Access point Identifier, for example, the second mapping relationship may be a corresponding relationship between the MAC Address of the wireless Access point and an Identifier of the wireless Access point, where the wireless Access point Identifier is used for the wireless controller to distinguish different wireless Access points, and the wireless Access point Identifier is represented by an Access point Identifier (AP ID) commonly found in manufacturers, may be an integer of 0 to 255, which is not limited in this embodiment.
It should be understood that, in the second mapping relationship, the corresponding current wireless access point identifier is searched according to the third device identifier, and when the current wireless access point identifier is found, the corresponding second configuration file is obtained according to the current wireless access point identifier, in other words, there may be a corresponding relationship between one device identifier, one wireless access point identifier, and one configuration file in this embodiment. It should be distinguished that, in this embodiment, a corresponding relationship between the three is introduced, and a specific search flow of the corresponding relationship is to search the identifier of the wireless access point through the device identifier, and then search the configuration file according to the identifier of the wireless access point, and through the specific search flow, the beneficial effect that the new wireless access point can directly use the configuration file of the old wireless access point is brought, and it is not necessary to re-establish the configuration file.
Step S302: and when the second wireless access point receives the second configuration file, realizing network configuration according to the second configuration file.
For example, when a new wireless access point is added to the wireless network, the new wireless access point is called a device a, and the old wireless access point is called a device b, the user wants the device a to directly use the configuration file of the device b, and since the device b that has been operated before or is operating has a wireless access point mark, such as a wireless access point mark of 22, the wireless access point mark of the device a can be also modified to 22, and then the wireless access point mark of the device a is consistent with the wireless access point mark of the device b. Then, the device a can obtain the configuration file corresponding to the identifier 22 according to the wireless access point identifier 22, and the configuration file obtained at this time is the configuration file used by the device b, so that the new wireless access point can directly use the configuration file of the old wireless access point to implement network configuration.
Further, when a new wireless access point joins the wireless network, a second mapping relationship may be preset to facilitate subsequent use, so that the second wireless access point is further configured to send an activation request to the wireless controller before the wireless controller searches for a corresponding current wireless access point identifier according to the third device identifier in the second mapping relationship; and when receiving an activation request sent by the second wireless access point, the wireless controller extracts the third equipment identifier from the activation request, establishes a corresponding relationship between the third equipment identifier and a preset wireless access point identifier, and adds the corresponding relationship to the second mapping relationship.
It can be understood that the second wireless access point may find the wireless access point identifier corresponding to the MAC address according to the MAC address because the wireless access point identifier may be set in advance or the correspondence between the MAC address and the wireless access point identifier may be set in advance.
In a specific implementation, the second wireless access point sends an activation request to the wireless controller, where the activation request includes a third device identifier of the second wireless access point. Then, when receiving an activation request sent by the second wireless access point, the wireless controller extracts the third device identifier of the second wireless access point from the activation request, establishes a corresponding relationship between the third device identifier of the wireless controller and a preset wireless access point identifier, and adds the corresponding relationship to the second mapping relationship. The wireless access point identification can be generated according to the own algorithm of the wireless controller, and after the wireless access point identification is generated, the corresponding relation between the wireless access point identification and the MAC address can be established.
Firstly, if a third device identifier, namely an MAC address, of the second wireless access point never appears in the wireless network, the second wireless access point may obtain a preset wireless access point identifier to establish a corresponding relationship between the MAC address and the preset wireless access point identifier;
secondly, there are various ways to obtain the preset wireless access point identifier, for example, a new wireless access point identifier may be generated according to an own algorithm of the wireless controller, but the new wireless access point identifier generated in this way may not have a relationship with the configuration file in the wireless controller, because the new wireless access point identifier may never appear in the wireless controller, for example, 40, only 21 integers of the wireless access point identifier from 0 to 20 are stored in the wireless controller, and only the correspondence between the 21 integers and each configuration file may be stored in the wireless controller.
Further, in order to overcome the problem that a new wireless access point identifier may not be associated with a configuration file in the wireless controller, after the wireless controller extracts the third device identifier of the second wireless access point from the activation request, a substitute device identifier is determined in a preset device identifier set according to the third device identifier, and the substitute device identifier is used as the new third device identifier. In other words, the wireless access point identifier 40 does not have a corresponding profile in the wireless controller, but the wireless access point identifier 6 has a corresponding profile in the wireless controller, and the second wireless access point corresponding to the user plan identifier 40 uses the same profile as the wireless access point corresponding to the wireless access point identifier 6, i.e. the wireless access point identifier of the second wireless access point is given as 6 from 40, and then the profile corresponding to the wireless access point identifier 6 can be used.
In this embodiment, a corresponding relationship between the device identifier and the wireless access point identifier is established, and the wireless access point identifier can be changed so that the new device can complete configuration by using the configuration file of the old device, thereby effectively reducing the workload of repeated configuration.
