Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the objects, technical means and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
For convenience of understanding, terms referred to in the embodiments of the present application are described and explained below.
A Multi-access point Controller (Multi-AP Controller), which is a logical functional entity of a Multi-access point, is used to control the logic of the Multi-AP network operation, including the functions of accessing a mesh node device, managing the whole mesh network, and the like, and is similar to a hotspot in terms of access function.
A Multi-access point Agent (Multi-AP Agent), which is a logical function with respect to a Multi-AP Controller, is a Multi-AP compliant logical entity for performing an AP control function and providing Multi-AP specific control information.
In the embodiment of the application, if the mesh node device is configured with the logic function of the multi-access point controller, the mesh node device is called a multi-access point controller node, and if the mesh node device is configured with the logic function of the multi-access point agent, the mesh node device is called a multi-access point agent node.
The method and the device have the advantage that networking is carried out in a mesh network in a mode that more than two mesh devices serve as more than two network outlets of the mesh network. The method comprises the following steps:
on the side of any wireless mesh node device,
the first access priority of the direct connection between the mesh node device and the gateway device is higher than the second access priority of the connection between the mesh node device and any other mesh node device except the mesh node device in the current mesh network, so that the mesh node device becomes: a second network interface in addition to the Multi-access point Controller Multi-AP Controller node as a first network egress.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a method for implementing mesh node device networking according to an embodiment of the present application. The method comprises the following steps:
102, according to the first network configuration parameter, directly connecting with the gateway device,
and step 104, under the condition that the performance meets the set conditions, keeping the direct connection between the mesh node device and the gateway device to serve as a second network outlet of the current mesh network, so that the current mesh network has the second network outlet besides the first network outlet.
The method and the device realize that mesh node equipment with good AP performance is used as a network outlet as much as possible, realize a multi-outlet networking mode, avoid the bandwidth restriction of the whole mesh network under the condition of one network outlet, and improve the robustness of the mesh network.
Example one
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a method for implementing mesh node device networking according to an embodiment of the present application. Any mesh node device to be accessed into the mesh network executes the following steps:
for example, in the smart home network, if the gateway device accessing the external network is a router, the mesh node device is accessed to the router.
As an example, if the mesh node device is accessed to the current mesh network for the first time, that is, if there is no historical network configuration parameter data accessed to the current mesh network in the mesh node device, the mesh node device may be forced to access the gateway device preferentially even if the user has selected to access other devices in the current mesh network, and a process of forcing the mesh node device to access the gateway device preferentially may be invisible to the user, that is, the mesh node device accessed to the current mesh network for the first time defaults to access the gateway device for accessing to the external network preferentially, so that the mesh node device has the first access priority of accessing the gateway device. The first network configuration parameter may include a Service Set Identifier (SSID) of the gateway device.
If the mesh node equipment is not accessed to the current mesh network for the first time, the historical network configuration parameters can be obtained to improve the speed of accessing to the mesh network, or the second network configuration parameters requested by the current network access request are obtained to meet the selection requirements of the user.
As another example, the mesh node device detects whether the mesh node device has the capability of serving as an egress device according to the device information of the mesh node device in response to a network access request input by a user, for example, evaluates whether the AP capability of the mesh node device itself satisfies a set condition,
if so, forcibly acquiring the first network configuration parameter, accessing to a gateway device for accessing an external network through the acquired first network configuration parameter so as to be directly connected with the gateway device,
otherwise, obtaining the historical network configuration parameters or obtaining the second network configuration parameters requested by the current network access request.
if the mesh node equipment exists, the mesh node equipment is a Multi-AP Agent node from the self-configuration equipment, namely, the configuration entity has a Multi-AP Agent logic function entity;
if the node does not exist, the current mesh network is possibly a new network, the mesh node device triggers the election of the Multi-AP Controller node so as to elect a node as the Multi-AP Controller,
if the elected Multi-AP Controller node is not itself, configuring itself as a Multi-AP proxy Multi-AP Agent node,
if the selected Multi-AP Controller node is self, at least generating service set identification information in the current mesh network, and also generating information such as passwords, and the like, sending the generated information to each Multi-AP Agent node, and collecting topology information of the current mesh network. Thus, in the current mesh network, after one mesh node is elected as a Multi-AP Controller node, the rest of mesh node devices are configured as Multi-AP Agent nodes.
As an example, the process of the mesh node device inquiring whether the mesh node device with the multi-access point controller logical function entity exists in the current mesh network may be as follows:
the mesh node equipment sends a query broadcast packet, if feedback from the Multi-AP Controller node is received, the existence of the Multi-AP Controller node is judged, and if the feedback is not received, the absence of the Multi-AP Controller node is judged;
as an example, the process of electing a Multi-AP Controller node may be such that:
each mesh node device in the current mesh network sends a broadcast packet, the broadcast packet carries device information of the device and mesh node device information directly connected with the device, each mesh node device obtains information of all mesh node devices in the current mesh network through the received broadcast packet, and a Multi-AP Controller node is determined according to election rules.
As an example, the mesh node device determines whether its current directly connected gateway device meets the requirement of expanding the second network outlet according to the performance of its current directly connected gateway device, that is, determines whether the performance of the gateway device meets the set condition,
if yes, keeping the direct connection between the mesh node equipment and the gateway equipment so as to take the mesh node equipment as a second network outlet,
otherwise, according to the AP performance of each mesh node device in the current mesh network, selecting the mesh node device with the optimal AP performance from the current mesh network to access, and disconnecting the direct connection between the mesh node device and the gateway device, so that the second priority of the connection between any mesh node device except the mesh node device in the current mesh network is lower than the first access priority of the connection between the mesh node device and the gateway device.
The performance of the gateway device may be considered according to at least one of a Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) of the gateway device, environmental interference, idle bandwidth, and a number of devices that can access the mesh node.
In view of the fact that the more mesh node devices are directly connected to the gateway device, the more expanded outlets are, the more network outlets of the mesh network are, but in practical application, the more devices directly connected to the gateway device also cause the defects of unbalanced load, limited bandwidth, poor network robustness and the like, in order to avoid the defects, preferably, the mesh node devices not only consider the performance of the directly connected gateway devices, but also consider the AP performance of the mesh node devices, if the AP performance of the mesh node devices meets set conditions, the direct connection between the mesh node devices and the gateway devices is reserved, otherwise, according to the AP performance of each mesh node device in the current mesh network, the mesh node devices with the optimal AP performance are selected from the current mesh network to be connected, and the direct connection between the mesh node devices and the gateway devices is disconnected.
The AP performance of the mesh node device itself may be considered according to at least one of RSSI, environmental interference, idle bandwidth, and the number of accessible mesh node devices of the mesh node device.
It should be understood that whether to expand an egress may also be determined based only on the AP capability itself.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic network diagram obtained by network deployment according to the method of the first embodiment. As an example, in the figure, mesh node devices 1, 2, and 3 are directly connected to a router and respectively support device access in two frequency bands, and a mesh node device 4 is directly connected to the mesh node device 2 and supports device access in two frequency bands, where the mesh node devices 1, 2, and 4 are Multi-AP Agent nodes, the mesh node device 3 is a Multi-AP Controller node, and there is only one or more Multi-AP Controller nodes in the mesh network. In addition, the workstation can also directly access the router.
In this embodiment, a mesh node device to be accessed to a mesh network performs a networking process, and through AP performance evaluation of the mesh node device, the mesh node device to be accessed to the mesh network can preferentially become an exit device of the mesh network by directly connecting a gateway device, so as to add a second network exit to the current mesh network as much as possible, which is beneficial to realizing load balancing of a Multi-AP Controller node, improving the bandwidth of the whole mesh network, and extending a wireless coverage distance.

if the current network environment is not good, for example, the current network signal strength is less than the set strength threshold, it is determined that the current network environment is not good, step 402 is executed,
otherwise, the current network connection is maintained.
As another example, the Multi-AP Controller node broadcasts an instruction to become an exit of the second network, so that the mesh node device with good AP performance in the current mesh network becomes an exit device, or the Multi-AP Controller node sends an instruction to become an exit of the second network to the target mesh node device, so that the target mesh node device becomes an exit device, or the user inputs an instruction to become an exit of the second network, in which case the mesh node device executes step 402 in response to the instruction to become an exit of the second network.
if the node is a Multi-AP Controller node, retrying to access a gateway device of an external network, under the condition that the access fails within a set time threshold and/or the access failure times reach a set time threshold, informing each Multi-AP Agent node to select the Multi-AP Controller node, after the selection is finished, selecting a mesh node device with the optimal AP performance from the current mesh network according to the AP performance of each mesh node device in the current mesh network to access,
if it is a Multi-AP Agent node, step 403 is performed,
if the AP performance of the mesh node equipment reaches a set condition, acquiring a first network configuration parameter, and accessing the first network configuration parameter to the gateway equipment through the acquired first network configuration parameter so as to be directly connected with the gateway equipment;
optionally, evaluating whether the performance of the directly connected gateway equipment can meet the requirement of an expanded exit so as to improve the reliability of access, if so, keeping the directly connected gateway equipment, otherwise, selecting mesh node equipment with the optimal AP performance from the current mesh network for access according to the AP performance of each mesh node equipment in the current mesh network,
and if the AP performance of the mesh node equipment does not reach the set condition, selecting a mesh node with the optimal AP performance from the current mesh network to access according to the AP performance of each mesh node equipment in the current mesh network.
In the second embodiment, a process that a mesh node device in an existing mesh network dynamically becomes an egress device is realized, and through AP performance evaluation of the mesh node device, any mesh node device in the existing mesh network is made to possibly become an egress device of the mesh network through a direct connection gateway device, so that a second network egress is added to the current mesh network, which is beneficial to realizing load balance of a Multi-AP Controller node and improving the bandwidth of the whole mesh network.

and the second access module responds to second control, selects mesh node equipment with the optimal AP performance from the mesh node equipment to access according to the AP performance of each mesh node equipment in the current mesh network, and disconnects the direct connection with the gateway equipment.
