Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in detail with reference to specific examples. The following examples will assist those skilled in the art in further understanding the invention, but are not intended to limit the invention in any way. It should be noted that it would be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. All falling within the scope of the present invention.
The embodiment of the invention provides a method for managing a life cycle of equipment in an equipment rental scene, which needs a cloud server for remote management and intelligent equipment at a controlled equipment end to participate, wherein the cloud server and software (client software) cooperatively work.
The method mainly comprises equipment life cycle management and a synchronization mechanism of a cloud end and an equipment end, in order to achieve the purpose that different management strategies are implemented on the equipment, the life states of the equipment need to be switched continuously, and the equipment is managed differently under each life state. The cloud and the equipment side are synchronized to effectively ensure that the equipment state switching information can be synchronized with the cloud at the equipment side in time, and a foundation is laid for switching the life state of the equipment.
And (3) life cycle management:
the invention defines two modes, namely a normal mode and a limited mode; in the normal mode, the user can use the original functions of the equipment terminal; in the limited mode, the use of the device side by the user depends on a policy predefined by the cloud.
The invention defines five states, which are respectively as follows:
not deployed: the device side does not deploy relevant software or the intelligent device is not registered in the cloud, and the device is in a normal mode or a limited mode at the moment;
and (3) registered: the device side is deployed with relevant software, the device is registered in a cloud terminal, and the device is in a normal mode or a limited mode at the moment according to different cloud terminal configurations;
already activated managed: the equipment life cycle management service is activated at an equipment end, the use of a user can be limited according to conditions, and the equipment belongs to a normal mode or a limited mode at the moment according to cloud configuration;
unregulated activated: the equipment life cycle management service is activated at the equipment end, the use of the user is not limited, and the equipment is in a normal mode;
the following is completed: the management service for that piece of equipment has been completely finished and the equipment is now in normal mode.
The undeployed state refers to that the equipment is in a production stage, or software is not deployed after the equipment is produced, or the equipment deploys the software but is not registered in the cloud.
The device can preset a device mode in an undeployed state, the software can specify the device mode in the undeployed state, and the device can be normally used or limited in use according to the preset or software-specified device mode in the undeployed state. Under general conditions, the device needs to establish a link with the cloud, and the cloud can manage the device, and the process usually requires the device to be capable of networking, and is not applicable in extreme network environments. In order to solve the problem, the invention can define a special strategy on software in advance, if the equipment is provided with the software for defining the special strategy, the equipment may not establish communication with the cloud, but the equipment is limited and cannot be normally used.
The registered state refers to a registered state, namely software is preset at the equipment end in a production stage or software is installed at the equipment end after leaving a factory, and the software finishes the equipment information registration of the cloud end; the device automatically downloads the configuration of the cloud terminal during initial registration, and the device can be normally used or limited in use according to the downloaded configuration of the cloud terminal.
The activated managed state means that the device is configured with an expiration time by the cloud, and the value of the expiration time can be modified only by the cloud.
If the equipment is in the normal mode and the time of the equipment is later than the expiration time, the equipment is switched to the limited mode, and the use of the equipment is limited; if the equipment is in the limited mode and the time of the equipment is earlier than the expiration time, the equipment is switched to the normal mode and can be normally used;
in the activated managed state, the software deployed on the device cannot be uninstalled or disabled.
The activated unmanaged state means that the device has installed software and completes registration in the cloud, the device can be normally used and is not limited by expiration time, and the software deployed on the device cannot be uninstalled or disabled.
The completed state means that the device has installed software and completed registration in the cloud, the device can be continuously and normally used, and the software deployed on the device can be uninstalled or disabled.
The switching of the equipment state is initiated by the cloud end and is issued to the equipment end through a synchronization mechanism. The switching of the device modes is carried out autonomously by the device side according to the strategy and the state of the device side, and the device mode is uploaded to the cloud side through a synchronization mechanism. The software cannot be unloaded when the equipment is in an activated state or the cloud policy definition cannot be unloaded, and the software can be unloaded when the equipment is normally used in other states.
Referring to fig. 1, the process of switching different life states of the device includes:
step A: when the equipment is in an undeployed state, the cloud end cannot communicate with the equipment end, software is preset at the equipment end in a production stage or installed at the equipment end after leaving a factory, equipment information registration is carried out at the cloud end by using the software, and the equipment can be switched to a registered state
The device in the registered state can determine whether the use of the device is limited or not through different strategies set by the cloud end, and can be switched to different life states according to cloud end instructions. In order to avoid the device theft behavior caused by the high-value attribute of the device in the process of device production or market inflow, the device is registered in the cloud end in the device production process, the device is handed to the cloud end for management, and the device is limited in use. For example, in a certain rental scene, the new device registers device information to the cloud in the production process, the device is limited in use, a user needs to provide other personal information such as a mobile phone number when the user wants to use the device normally, and after the cloud receives the information and checks the information to be legal, the cloud modifies a policy and synchronizes the device or modifies the life state of the device, so that the device is controlled to be used normally.
And B: after the equipment terminal is registered, the cloud terminal needs to timely and effectively control the equipment so as to reduce the occurrence of non-compliance in the leasing process, and the life state of the equipment can be switched to be an activated and controlled state;
when the device needs to switch from the registered state to the activated managed state or the activated unmanaged state, the device needs to check whether the cloud configuration allows the switching of the life state to occur silently. If so, the device switches directly to the life state. If not, the software end displays a prompt to require the equipment user to explicitly agree to the equipment to carry out state switching, and if the user agrees to carry out operation, the equipment is switched to a new life state; otherwise the device remains in the registered state
Whether the device can normally use the configuration defined by the cloud end is determined in the activated and controlled state, the cloud end can manage the device through modifying the configuration, the device can normally use the device within the expiration time of the configuration of the cloud end, and the device end can actively switch the device mode to the limited mode after the expiration time is reached;
the cloud operator can reset the life state of the equipment to be registered through the cloud function when the equipment under the control is activated, and whether the equipment is limited is determined by cloud configuration.
And C: after the equipment is registered, the equipment can be switched from a registered state to an activated unmanaged state at the cloud end; the device can be used normally without limitation in the activated and unmanaged state, and meanwhile, the device in the activated and unmanaged state can be reset to the registered state
Step D: the activated managed state and the activated unmanaged state can be switched with each other.
When the device is in an activated unmanaged state, the cloud operator can set the device life state as activated and managed through the cloud function, and configures an expiration time, at which time the device life state is switched to activated and managed.
When the equipment is in an activated and controlled state, the cloud operator can set the equipment life state to be activated and not controlled through the cloud function, at the moment, the equipment life state is switched to be activated and not controlled, and the use of the equipment is not limited
Step E: the cloud end can switch the device from the registered state to the completed state, and does not control the device any more. In the finished state, the equipment can not be switched to other life states and can be normally used, and related software can also be normally unloaded.
Step F: and under the activated and controlled state, the cloud end can switch the equipment into a finished state, the use of the equipment is not limited any more, and the cloud end does not control the equipment any more.
Step G: and in the activated unmanaged state, the cloud end can switch the equipment into a finished state, and in the finished state, the related software can be normally unloaded. The cloud no longer performs subsequent management on the device.
The synchronization mechanism of the cloud end and the equipment end is as follows:
the cloud end manages the equipment end through synchronization of the equipment state and the equipment mode, data synchronization exists in two directions in the synchronization of the cloud end and the equipment end, and the cloud end synchronizes the equipment state of the cloud end to the equipment end; the device side synchronizes the device mode of the device side to the cloud side;
the invention defines the following concepts to assist the synchronization of the cloud and the device side:
device state counter: the switching times of the cloud to the equipment state are that 1 is added to the value of the cloud state every time the cloud state is switched for 1 time;
device-side device state counter: the actual state of the equipment is switched for times, and the value is added by 1 every time the actual state of the equipment is switched for 1 time;
resetting the counter: the cloud resets the equipment to the registered state for 1 time, and the value is added by 1 when the equipment is reset to the registered state;
device mode counter: and the number of switching the equipment mode of the equipment side is 1, and the value is added with 1 every time the equipment mode is switched for 1 time.
The timely and effective synchronization of the cloud end and the equipment end is the premise of ensuring the normal synchronization of the equipment state, so that the synchronization mechanism of the cloud end and the equipment end plays a crucial role in the switching process of the life cycle of the equipment. However, unknown problems such as network delay, packet loss, disorder and the like are inevitably generated in network communication, in order to avoid the problems, the present invention determines whether a message received by the cloud or the device is legal by comparing the counters, and a main flow of synchronization between the cloud and the device is shown in fig. 2.
Specifically, the synchronization process of the cloud and the device side includes:
step S1: when the cloud end needs to switch the life state of the equipment according to specific requirements, the equipment state counter is updated at first, and the life state of the cloud end is modified.
Step S2: the device side requests the cloud side synchronization state information data periodically or under the condition of receiving the notification.
Step S3: and after receiving the synchronization request, the cloud end verifies the validity of the synchronization request, judges whether the synchronization request is the synchronization request sent by the registered equipment, and returns the state information including the equipment state counter to the equipment end if the request is legal.
Step S4: after receiving the synchronization data, the equipment terminal compares the size of the equipment state counter with that of the equipment state counter of the equipment terminal, if the equipment state counter is smaller than or equal to the equipment state counter of the equipment terminal, the synchronization data is overdue due to some unpredictable reasons such as network fluctuation and the like, the equipment terminal discards the data and does not process the data, otherwise, the data is timely and effective data, and the equipment terminal updates the state and updates the equipment state counter of the equipment terminal at the same time;
step S5: after the equipment end receives and processes the correct synchronous data, the equipment returns data information such as the equipment end state, an equipment end state counter, an equipment mode counter, a reset counter and the like to the cloud end to inform the cloud end that the equipment end receives and processes the synchronous data correctly;
step S6: the cloud end receives the information returned by the equipment end, firstly, the equipment state counter returned by the equipment end is compared with the value of the equipment state counter stored by the cloud end, and if the value of the equipment state counter is greater than the value of the equipment state counter at the cloud end, the information is illegal and is not processed. If the value of the device state counter at the device end is smaller than that of the cloud device state counter, it indicates that the synchronous information may cause message expiration due to the network delay relationship, and the cloud does not process the synchronous information. Only when the value of the equipment state counter of the equipment end is equal to the value of the cloud equipment state counter, the data information returned by the equipment end is real and effective;
when the device mode is switched, the device actively synchronizes the mode information to the cloud, and a device mode switching synchronization flowchart is shown in fig. 3.
When the device mode is switched, adding 1 to the value of a device mode counter to generate a piece of mode switching synchronization information, and sending the mode switching synchronization information to the cloud;
after receiving the mode switching synchronization information sent by the equipment, the cloud compares the value of the equipment mode counter, if the value of the equipment mode counter sent by the equipment end is larger than the value of the equipment mode counter stored in the cloud, the mode switching synchronization information is timely and effective, otherwise, the synchronization information received by the cloud is overdue or processed information, and the cloud receives the information without processing.
After the cloud end processes the synchronous information, the message is returned to the equipment end and successfully processed, and the equipment end stops sending the mode switching synchronous information to the cloud end after receiving the successful processing information of the cloud end until the next time the equipment mode is switched.
