Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
At present, network communication equipment mostly adopts a Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) technology, and ZTP has applications in a plurality of fields. For network communication equipment, the ZTP technology refers to a zero-configuration agile deployment technology after installation of relevant network communication equipment, and is operated on line quickly. The typical implementation mode is that a DHCP server is used for automatically guiding the new network access equipment to establish connection and download related configuration with a central network management server/software, a configuration server/script file server and the like. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 1, the main steps are as follows:
(1) when the new device just accesses the network, the IP address is not configured, and the IP address can be applied to be allocated to the DHCP server through the two-layer broadcast message.
(2) The new device and the DHCP server have the capability of bidirectionally exchanging data, the new device can report the device model, the software version and the like to the DHCP server, and the DHCP server can issue an allocated IP address and can issue other information data, for example, the address of the software and the configuration server is informed to the new device.
(3) The new device uses the information informed by the DHCP to establish connection with the software and the configuration server and download the configuration related to the new device.
The configuration items of the network communication equipment comprise IP addresses of the equipment, equipment names or ID numbers, service-related configurations and the like. The specific configuration data content of a network communication device is mainly related to the location of the device in the whole network plan (i.e. the role it plays in the network), the carried service, etc. The specific configuration data content, if reflected in a specific engineering implementation, is related to the specific location where the equipment is installed. In the engineering implementation, a specific installation position is arranged in advance for each network communication device in the network planning, and construction is carried out according to an engineering design drawing so as to ensure that the device configuration conforms to the network planning.
As is known, when a communication device network is open (i.e. a station is open) or a device is replaced due to a failure, the network communication device is configured with two operation modes:
firstly, all configuration is finished on the network communication equipment in an off-line mode, and then the network communication equipment is accessed into the existing network. Because the configuration is off-line, a command line tool or a local management terminal is needed to be used for carrying out independent configuration on the network communication equipment, and a user manually completes each configuration.
Secondly, the network communication equipment is firstly accessed into the existing network, and then the equipment is configured on line. Because of the online configuration, the network communication device can be remotely configured by using network management software (usually deployed in a central computer room). However, the necessary identity information of the device, for example, the IP address allocated to the device according to the network plan, needs to be manually configured, so that the device can establish a connection with the network management software and be identified. The device can only receive the remote configuration of the network management software, that is, the network management software remotely transmits the configuration data to the device, and the device receives the configuration data and writes the configuration data into the configuration of the device. It should be noted that the problem cannot be solved by automatically allocating an IP address to the device using a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server, because the automatically allocated IP address is random and cannot be used for identifying the identity of the device.
The invention is not limited to the installation and configuration scene of the network communication equipment, can be applied to the scene of the configuration data related to the corresponding equipment installation position, has wider application scene range than the prior ZTP configuration and deployment technology, and is exemplarily illustrated by the network communication equipment. As shown in fig. 2, the present invention provides a fast configuration method for network communication equipment, and the specific steps of the configuration method are:
the method comprises the following steps: planning and saving the network topology of the equipment, and planning and saving the configuration data of each equipment in the network topology.
In the network management software graphical interface, a user can drag and drop various types of equipment modules from an equipment module library, put the equipment modules on a network topology picture in an icon form, and configure the network link connection relationship among equipment to form a planning network topology picture. The pre-configuration data of each device can be input into the network management software and stored in the configuration database. Specifically, each configuration parameter of the device is input in an interface dialog box, or a configuration file import function is used. The device configuration data includes the identity of the device, the device name, the device location, the IP address, traffic related configurations (such as VLAN assignment, routing rule settings), etc. For example, at this time, the network management software side has already completed the planning of the network and device configuration, but the configuration data is not sent to the target device. The network topology map identifies the devices with undelivered configuration or not on-line by different icon forms, for example, the icons of the network communication devices with undelivered configuration or not on-line are displayed in grey.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3, N existing network communication devices, DHCP servers, and network management servers in a certain area are interconnected through a network, where N ≧ 1. The N network communication devices are connected with the network management server, are in a normal operation state, and are displayed in a white color in a network topological graph. The network management server runs network management software to manage the whole network; the network management terminal is a user operation interface terminal of the network management server. In addition, the network communication device X is a target device, and the network communication device X is a new network access device when the station is opened or the device is replaced due to a failure, and at this time, the network communication device X is not configured with data and is displayed in gray in a network topology diagram. The configuration data of all the devices in the network are stored in the configuration database of the network management server.
Each device in the network topology map corresponds to an identity code, and the identity code of the device is called ULID (universal Location Identifier). The failed device and the new device may have different device numbers, but the new device needs to inherit the identity ULID of the original failed device. Namely, after the fault equipment is replaced by new equipment, the method is characterized in that the logical position of the fault equipment in the network topology is unchanged, and the installation position of a real object in a machine room is also unchanged.
The ULID numbering mode is related to the installation position of the real object, and is as follows:
AAAA-BBBB-CCCC-DDDD-EE
each number represents: road bureau/city coding-line number-station/machine room number-machine cabinet number-slot position number; illustratively, the identity identifier ULID corresponding to the slot where the network communication device X is currently located is: 0001 + 01, the identification code ULID represents: line office # 0001, line # 0001, station # 0001, cabinet # 0001, and slot # 01.
Or using the string: road bureau/city name-line name-station/machine room name-cabinet number-slot number; illustratively, the identity identifier ULID corresponding to the slot where the network communication device X is currently located is: the identification code ULID represents the slot position of Beijing-Jinghu line-Beijing station-0001 machine cabinet-01.
The ULID numbering may also be used in other ways as long as its network-wide uniqueness is ensured. For example, the UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) encoding standard promulgated in the field of distributed computing environments by the open software foundation organization may also be followed.
The invention adopts the identity identification code ULID to identify the identity of each device, and stores the configuration data of each device by taking the identity identification code ULID as an index.
The configuration database of the invention can be arranged in the network management server, and can also be independent of other entities outside the network management server. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4, existing N network communication devices, a DHCP server, a network management server, and a configuration server in a certain area are interconnected through a network, where N ≧ 1. The N network communication devices are connected with the network management server, are in a normal operation state, and are displayed in a white color in a network topological graph. The network management server runs network management software to manage the whole network; the network management terminal is a user operation interface terminal of the network management server. In addition, the network communication device P is a target device, and the network communication device P is a new network access device when the station is opened or replaced due to a failure, and at this time, the network communication device P is not configured with data yet and is shown in grey in a network topology diagram. The configuration data of all devices in the network is stored in a configuration server.
Specifically, the network management software transmits the planned equipment configuration to a configuration server, and all configuration data are stored in a database of the configuration server by taking an identity identifier (ULID) as an index; after the network management software finishes the identification (verification and matching) of the network communication equipment P, the network management software informs the configuration server, extracts corresponding configuration data from a database of the configuration server according to the identification code ULID, and issues the configuration data to the network communication equipment P by using the temporary IP address of the network communication equipment P.
In summary, the network management software and the configuration database may be deployed on the same physical server, or the network management software and the configuration database may be deployed on different physical servers.
Step two: and the target equipment is temporarily connected with the network management server through a network.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, the newly-accessed network communication device X does not configure an IP address, and needs to apply for the IP address from the DHCP server after being powered on and started, so as to serve as the temporary IP address of the network communication device X. Meanwhile, the DHCP server also pushes other related information to the network communication device X, such as an IP address of a network management server. And then the network communication equipment X sends a connection request to the network management server through the temporary IP address to establish connection with network management software.
Step three: and identifying and matching the equipment identity of the target equipment.
Specifically, the identity ULID is used to identify the device identity, and corresponds to a specific device in the network topology, rather than a device number, a serial number, and the like in a common sense. Because the network planning does not specify which physical device is installed and connected to the network, the device number may be any number as long as the model of the connected device meets the requirement and can be configured. The identity of the equipment is identified by the identity identification code ULID, and the network management software can set the equipment into the equipment required in the network planning by issuing the configuration, namely, the configuration of the equipment is consistent with the identity of the equipment. Therefore, the device can be replaced by the new device after the failure, and the new device inherits the identity of the original device as long as the original configuration data is completely copied into the new device.
The target device is identified in order to assign the correct identification code ULID to the target device.
Taking the identification code ULID as an example, the equipment identification process is as follows:
1. in network planning, the real object installation position of each equipment planning is converted into a corresponding identification code ULID and converted into a ULID two-dimensional code, and each ULID two-dimensional code is printed and pasted to a corresponding slot position of each corresponding cabinet in the initial stage of network construction.
Exemplarily, at the initial stage of communication network construction, the two-dimensional code corresponding to the identity code ULID of 0001-.
2. When a communication network is opened or equipment is replaced due to faults, after target equipment is installed in a planned slot position, scanning the ULID two-dimensional code by using the customized application app of the mobile terminal, and transmitting the ULID to the target equipment through a USB data line of the mobile terminal to finish the rapid identification of the identity of the target equipment.
For example, as shown in fig. 5, when the communication network is opened or the device is replaced due to a failure, the network communication device X is installed in slot 01 of the 0001 cabinet of the beijing station on the jinghu line. And scanning the two-dimensional code of the identification code ULID on the slot position by using the customized application app of the mobile terminal, and transmitting the identification code ULID (0001-.
3. And the target equipment uses the temporary IP address, applies for the verification identity to the network management software by using the identity identification code ULID, and the network management software searches equipment corresponding to the identity identification code ULID in a planned network topological graph.
Exemplarily, the network communication device X connects to the network management software by using a temporary IP address applied from the DHCP server, and sends the data "0001-0001" to the network management software, the network management software verifies the identity code ULID, and the network management software searches for the device corresponding to the identity code ULID in the planned network topology map.
The method for scanning the ULID two-dimensional code by using the mobile terminal application app identifies the ULID of the equipment, replaces a manual configuration part in the conventional equipment configuration, simplifies the operation process, reduces the probability of manual configuration errors, reduces the personnel resource requirement, and does not need network configuration personnel to participate locally in the installation process.
Besides the mode of scanning the ULID two-dimensional code by using the mobile terminal application app to identify the equipment identity, the U-disk reading identification can be adopted. For example, as shown in fig. 6, the U-disk is used to store the identification code ULID corresponding to the corresponding installation location (slot position), the device installer carries the U-disk and inserts the U-disk into the USB data port of the target device, and the identification code ULID is automatically read into the target device.
For some network scenes, for example, only a single network communication device is installed in the same station/machine room, and at the moment, the network management software identifies the identity of the target device without accurate position information. If the target device has a GPS module or can receive GPS information provided by other devices in the computer room, the target device can identify the location information of the target device by reporting GPS coordinate information to network management software. The network management software prestores the GPS position information corresponding to the positions of all the devices in the network topological graph in the configuration database, and then within a set error range, the network management software can search and match the GPS position information of the target device to identify the logical position of the target device in the network topological graph. The method can also realize the identification of the equipment identity.
For another example, for some network scenarios, for example, only a single network communication device is installed in the same station/machine room, and at this time, the network management software does not need precise location information for identifying the identity of the target device. The LLDP protocol can also be used to provide the topological connection relation of the device, which is used as the basis for searching and matching the device identity by the network management software. If all the devices and the target device in the network support the LLDP protocol function, the target device performs LLDP detection after starting and reports the LLDP message information to network management software. The network management software collects the LLDP message information of all the devices, and the actual connection topological graph of the whole network can be constructed through correlation calculation. Comparing the actual connection topological graph with the network topological graph planned in the network management software, other devices except the target device are matched and associated with other devices in the planned topological graph, so that the target device can be judged to be matched and associated with the devices which are not associated in the planned topological graph. The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a vendor-independent two-layer protocol that allows network devices to advertise their device identities and capabilities in the local subnet.
And 4, step 4: and the target equipment receives and updates the configuration data, and reestablishes network connection between the target equipment and the network management server.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, when the network management software searches for a device corresponding to the identification code ULID sent by the network communication device X in the network topology map, the network management software calls corresponding configuration data from the configuration database according to the identification code ULID sent by the network communication device X, and sends the configuration data to the network communication device X through the temporary IP address of the network communication device X, where the configuration data includes a new IP address planned for the network communication device X. After the network communication device X successfully acquires and updates the configuration data, the identity identification code ULID of the network communication device X is unchanged, and the new IP address is used for establishing connection with the network management software again. After the network communication device X establishes connection, the network management software is marked by a specific icon form in a network topological graph, and at the moment, the gray icon is lightened to become a white icon.
When the identity identification code ULID of the network communication equipment X cannot be matched with the identity identification of any equipment in the network topological graph, the network management software provides alarm information on the network management terminal.
Taking the identification code ULID as an example, the communication network is opened and the equipment is replaced due to failure, respectively, and the following steps are respectively taken as an example:
the first embodiment is as follows: a site A is newly added in a communication network, a network communication device Y is arranged in the site A, a network topology related to the network communication device Y is planned and stored in network management software, configuration data of the network communication device Y in the network topology is planned, and the configuration data comprises a new IP address planned for the network communication device Y. The configuration data of the network communication device Y is stored in a configuration database.
As shown in fig. 7, in the network planning, the installation location of the network communication device Y is converted into a corresponding identification code ULID. Illustratively, the identification code ULID of the network communication device Y is 0001-.
When the first site is opened, the network communication equipment Y is installed in a 01 slot position of a 0001 cabinet of the first site, the identity identification code ULID two-dimensional code is scanned by using the customized application app of the mobile terminal, and the identity identification code ULID is transmitted to the network communication equipment Y through a USB data line of the mobile terminal.
When the station A is opened and the network communication equipment Y is powered on and started, the network communication equipment Y automatically applies for a temporary IP address from the DHCP server, and the network communication equipment Y acquires the temporary IP address. The network communication equipment Y is connected with the network management server through the temporary IP address, the identity identification code ULID (0001 + 0002 + 0001-01) of the network communication equipment Y is sent to the network management software, the network management software verifies the identity identification code ULID, and the network management software searches the corresponding equipment in the planned network topological graph for matching.
When the identity identifier ULID of the network communication equipment Y cannot be matched with the identity identifier of any equipment in the network topological graph, the network management software sends alarm information on the network management terminal. When the identity identifier ULID is successfully matched, the network management software calls corresponding configuration data from the configuration database, the configuration data is sent to the network communication equipment Y through the temporary IP address, the network communication equipment Y obtains and updates the configuration data, the identity identifier ULID (0001 + 0002 + 0001-01) corresponding to the network communication equipment Y is unchanged, and the network communication equipment Y is connected with the network management software again through a new IP address in the configuration data. And the network communication equipment Y successfully accesses the network, and an icon of the network communication equipment Y is lightened to display white in the network topological graph.
Example two: a first site is arranged in a communication network, a network communication device Y is arranged in the first site, a network topology related to the network communication device Y is planned and stored in network management software, configuration data of the network communication device Y in the network topology is planned, and the configuration data comprises a new IP address planned for the network communication device Y. The configuration data of the network communication device Y is stored in a configuration database.
As shown in fig. 8, in the network planning, the installation location of the network communication device Y is converted into a corresponding identification code ULID, for example, the identification code ULID of the network communication device Y is 0001-.
When the network communication equipment Y breaks down and is replaced, new equipment (network communication equipment Z) is installed in a 01 slot position of a 0001 cabinet of a first site, the identity identification code ULID two-dimensional code is scanned by using a customized application app of the mobile terminal, and the identity identification code ULID is transmitted to the network communication equipment Z through a USB data line of the mobile terminal. After the network communication device Z is powered on and started, the network communication device Z automatically applies for a temporary IP address from the DHCP server, and the network communication device Z acquires the temporary IP address. The network communication equipment Z is connected with the network management server through the temporary IP address, the identity identification code ULID (0001 + 0002 + 0001-01) of the network communication equipment Z is sent to network management software, the network management software verifies the identity identification code ULID, and the network management software searches corresponding equipment in a planned network topological graph for matching.
When the identity identification code ULID of the network communication equipment Z can not be matched with the identity identification of any equipment in the network topological graph, the network management software provides warning information on the network management terminal. When the identity identifier ULID of the network communication equipment Z is successfully matched, the network management software calls corresponding configuration data from the configuration database and sends the configuration data to the network communication equipment Z through the temporary IP address, the network communication equipment Z obtains and updates the configuration data, the identity identifier ULID (0001 + 0002 + 0001-01) corresponding to the network communication equipment Z is unchanged, and the network communication equipment Z is connected with the network management software again through a new IP address in the configuration data. And the network communication equipment Z successfully accesses the network, and an icon of the network communication equipment Z is lightened to display white in the network topological graph.
The network management software in the invention can also replace the partial process of automatically searching and matching the identity of the target equipment with the process of manual matching. Specifically, after the target device establishes connection with the network management software by using the temporary IP address, the target device is displayed as a device icon independent of a planned network topology map on a network management software interface; the user of the network management software operates on the graphical interface, and manually specifies the matching relation between the target equipment and certain equipment in the network topological graph in a mode of dragging and dropping equipment icons or inputting parameters. The mode requires the participation of users at the network management software side. The method does not require the target device to report the identification code ULID and does not require the target device to report the GPS location information or the LLDP information, but the target device can still report the identification code ULID, the GPS location information or the LLDP information at this time, and the information can also be used as auxiliary information of the manual matching process.
Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; and such modifications or substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the corresponding technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
