Detailed Description
So that the manner in which the features and elements of the disclosed embodiments can be understood in detail, a more particular description of the disclosed embodiments, briefly summarized above, may be had by reference to the embodiments, some of which are illustrated in the appended drawings. In the following description of the technology, for purposes of explanation, numerous details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may be practiced without these details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices may be shown in simplified form in order to simplify the drawing.
In the deployment of the wireless local area network, the deployment mode of the wireless access points comprises a FAT-AP mode, and the FAT-AP mode is a locally and independently deployable mode. The method comprises an FIT-AP mode, wherein the FIT-AP mode is an operation mode of AC (Access Controller, wireless Controller) centralized management deployment and cannot be deployed independently from AC. The Cloud-AP mode is an operation mode based on Cloud remote management, and can be configured and managed in batch at the Cloud.
The following describes in detail a method for switching a deployment mode of a wireless access point according to an embodiment of the present application with reference to fig. 1 to 8.
Referring to fig. 1, the method specifically includes the following steps;
s101, the wireless access point acquires the current deployment mode of the wireless access point.
In one possible implementation, the three operation modes are prioritized, and based on the positioning of the wireless access point in the network, "centralized management" is superior to "independent operation" and "local centralized management" is superior to "remote centralized management", so that the priority of the three operation modes is set such that FIT-AP mode is superior to Cloud-AP mode and Cloud-AP mode is superior to FAT-AP mode.
And acquiring a current deployment mode of the wireless access point, wherein the current deployment mode is a mode in which the wireless access point is currently running.
S102, whether the wireless access point has a potential deployment mode with higher priority is detected.
Wherein the potential deployment mode is a deployment mode with a higher priority than the current operation mode. The wireless access point maintains a probe of the potential deployment mode in the current deployment mode.
In an exemplary scenario, a wireless access point currently operates in a FAT-AP mode, and it is known from the priority of a wireless access point deployment mode that an FIT-AP mode is better than a Cloud-AP mode and the Cloud-AP mode is better than the FAT-AP mode, then the potential deployment modes of the wireless access point at this time are the Cloud-AP mode and the FIT-AP mode with higher priority than the FAT-AP mode, and the wireless access point may periodically detect whether the Cloud-AP mode and the FIT-AP mode with higher priority exist within a certain range, where the wireless access point first detects whether the FIT-AP mode with higher priority exists, and when the FIT-AP mode does not exist, detects whether the Cloud-AP mode exists.
In an exemplary scenario, the wireless access point currently operates in the Cloud-AP mode, and it is known from the priority of the wireless access point deployment mode that the FIT-AP mode is better than the Cloud-AP mode, and then the potential deployment mode of the wireless access point is the FIT-AP mode with higher priority than the Cloud-AP mode, and the wireless access point may periodically detect whether the FIT-AP mode with higher priority exists within a certain range.
In an exemplary scenario, the wireless access point currently operates in the FIT-AP mode, and the FIT-AP mode is the deployment mode with the highest priority according to the priority of the deployment mode of the wireless access point, and at this time, the wireless access point does not need to detect the potential deployment mode any more.
S103, if a potential deployment mode with higher priority exists, whether the connection with the potential deployment mode can be successful is judged.
Specifically, if it is detected that the wireless access point has a potential deployment mode with a higher priority in a certain range, it is determined whether the connection with the potential deployment mode is successful.
In an exemplary scenario, a wireless access point currently operates in a FAT-AP mode, and if it is detected that a Cloud-AP mode with higher priority than the FAT-AP mode exists within a certain range, it is detected whether the wireless access point meets a condition for switching to the Cloud-AP mode, i.e., whether the connection with the Cloud-AP mode is successful. Or an FIT-AP mode with higher priority than the FAT-AP mode exists in a certain range, whether the wireless access point can be successfully connected with the FIT-AP mode or not is detected.
In one exemplary scenario, the wireless access point is currently operating in the Cloud-AP mode, detecting that within a certain range there is an FIT-AP mode with a higher priority than the Cloud-AP mode, and detecting whether the wireless access point can successfully connect to the FIT-AP mode.
In one embodiment, the wireless access point remains in the current deployment mode of operation when there is no more prioritized potential deployment mode. For example, the wireless access point currently operates in the FIT-AP mode, the FIT-AP mode has the highest priority, and the wireless access point may keep operating in the FIT-AP mode.
And S104, if the connection with the potential deployment mode is successful, the wireless access point is switched to the potential deployment mode with higher priority.
The decision points in the embodiment of the present disclosure are distributed on each wireless access point of the WLAN whole network, and are a distributed decision mechanism, and when the connection with the potential deployment mode with higher priority is successful, the wireless access point can be adaptively switched to the potential deployment mode with higher priority, and has higher flexibility and networking robustness.
For further understanding of the method for switching deployment modes of wireless access points provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the following description is made with reference to fig. 2 to 8.
As shown in fig. 2, when the wireless access point operates in the first deployment mode, the timing probe is started in a preset period, and first, whether the connection with the third deployment mode is successful is periodically detected, and if the connection with the third deployment mode is successful, the wireless access point is switched to the third deployment mode, and the operation in the third deployment mode is restarted.
And if the connection with the third deployment mode can not be successful, periodically detecting whether the connection with the second deployment mode can be successful, if the connection with the second deployment mode can be successful, switching the wireless access point into the second deployment mode, and restarting to operate in the second deployment mode.
And if the connection with the second deployment mode is not successful, continuing to detect after waiting for a preset period. The first deployment mode in the embodiment of the present disclosure refers to FAT-AP mode, the second deployment mode refers to Cloud-AP mode, and the third deployment mode refers to FIT-AP mode, and therefore, the priority of the third deployment mode is greater than that of the second deployment mode, and the priority of the second deployment mode is greater than that of the first deployment mode.
As shown in fig. 3, when the wireless access point operates in the second deployment mode, it is periodically detected whether the connection with the third deployment mode can be successful, and if the connection with the third deployment mode can be successful, the wireless access point is switched to the third deployment mode, and the operation in the third deployment mode is restarted. And if the connection with the third deployment mode is not successful, continuing to detect after waiting for a preset period.
As shown in fig. 4, when the wireless access point is operating in the third deployment mode, it is determined that there is no more prioritized potential deployment mode, and the wireless access point remains operating in the third deployment mode.
In one embodiment, the wireless access point and the wireless controller operating in the third deployment mode may experience a connection interruption, which indicates that the operating conditions of the current deployment mode are invalid.
As shown in fig. 5, if the connection between the wireless access point operating in the third deployment mode and the wireless controller is interrupted, the wireless access point and the wireless controller are reconnected first, and if the connection cannot be successfully connected within the first preset time period, the wireless access point is restarted; and after the wireless access point is restarted, the wireless access point is kept to operate in the third deployment mode within the second preset time period, the wireless access point and the wireless controller are continuously reconnected, and if the connection cannot be successfully carried out within the second preset time period, the wireless access point is switched to the first deployment mode to operate. The duration of the first preset time period is greater than the duration of the second preset time period. The connection can not be successfully connected within the first preset time period, the restart can be carried out, the connection is continuously tried after the restart, and at the moment, the long-time connection is not needed, so the duration of the second preset time period is set to be less than the first time period.
In one embodiment, the wireless access point and the cloud operating in the second deployment mode may have a connection interruption, which indicates that the operating condition of the current deployment mode is invalid.
As shown in fig. 6, if the connection between the wireless access point and the cloud end operating in the second deployment mode is interrupted, the wireless access point and the cloud end are reconnected, and if the connection cannot be successfully connected within the third preset time period, the wireless access point is restarted; and after the restart, the wireless access point is kept to operate in the second deployment mode within a second preset time period, the wireless access point and the cloud end are continuously reconnected, and if the wireless access point still cannot be successfully connected within the second preset time period, the wireless access point is switched to the first deployment mode to operate. And the duration of the third preset time period is greater than the duration of the second preset time period. And the connection can not be successfully connected within the third preset time period, the restart can be carried out, the connection is continuously tried after the restart, and the long-time connection does not need to be spent at the moment, so the duration of the second preset time period is set to be less than the third time period.
In one embodiment, an administrator may solidify the deployment mode of the wireless access point by issuing configuration, the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the manner of issuing configuration, and a person skilled in the art may set the deployment mode to operate in a fixed manner according to the mode solidification configuration issued by the administrator.
As shown in fig. 8, when the deployment mode of the wireless access point needs to be solidified, the periodic timing detector is first turned off, and it is no longer detected whether there is a deployment mode with a higher priority, and then the mode solidification configuration sent by the administrator is received and stored. And restarting the wireless access point and operating in a solidified deployment mode. And if the deployment mode needs to be switched after curing, factory settings need to be restored.
In one embodiment, when factory reset is performed, an administrator may issue a factory reset instruction, and when the factory reset instruction is received, the wireless access point operates in the deployment mode with the lowest priority. That is, after factory reset is performed, the wireless access point operates in the FAT-AP mode. In a possible implementation manner, an administrator may issue a factory restoration instruction through a cloud end, or may issue a factory restoration instruction through a wireless access point.
As shown in fig. 7, when factory restoration configuration is performed, an administrator issues a factory restoration instruction, and the wireless access point switches the current operation mode to the FAT-AP mode with the lowest priority according to the received factory restoration instruction, and restarts to operate in the FAT-AP mode.
According to the deployment mode switching method of the wireless access point provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, a strategy decision node does not need to be deployed in the wireless local area network, a network element does not need to be newly added, and the influence of single-point faults on the whole network can be avoided.
