Description

Modification method and device for optical module compatible code

Technical Field

The application belongs to the technical field of communication, and particularly relates to a method and a device for modifying an optical module compatible code.

Background

The optical module is an important component of network equipment adopting optical communication, and is mainly used for photoelectric conversion of signals, converts electric signals of the equipment into optical signals at a transmitting end and restores the optical signals into electric signals at a receiving end.

Many network equipment manufacturers hope that the equipment of the network equipment manufacturers can use the optical module of the original factory, so that the optical module of the original factory of the network equipment can write specific compatible codes in a code writing area, when the optical module is inserted into the network equipment, the network equipment can read information of the code writing area of the optical module, if the compatible codes exist in the code writing area, the equipment can be normally used, and if the compatible codes do not exist, alarm information can be sent to a user or the use of the equipment is limited. Thus, many optical modules have compatibility problems during use. Various optical module factories promote optical modules with various rates to meet market demands, but even optical modules with the same rate have the above compatibility problem due to different manufacturers.

The compatibility problem is generally solved by modifying the compatible code, namely, the compatible code corresponding to the network equipment is written into the optical module, so that the optical module can be normally used in the network equipment. The hardware processes of different optical module manufacturers are different, so that even the optical modules of the same model have different hardware configuration parameters (configuration files for short) of different manufacturers. Before the optical module is modified by the compatible code, the optical module needs to be unlocked one by utilizing all the configuration files to find out the target configuration file capable of unlocking the optical module, and the compatible code of the optical module can be modified after the target configuration file is found out. However, since manufacturers of optical modules are many, a lot of time is required to unlock the optical modules one by using all configuration files, and thus the code changing efficiency of the optical modules is affected.

For ease of understanding, the specific structures of the code changing device 11 and the server 12 will be exemplarily described below.

As shown in fig. 3, the server 12 further includes a network module 124, where the network module 124 is configured to be connected to the transcoding device 11 in a network.

In the code changing system shown in fig. 1, the code changing device 11 is connected with the server 12 through a network, so that a configuration file and a compatible code can be obtained from the server; the code changing device 11 is connected with the electrical interface of the optical module 13 to be processed, so that the module information of the optical module to be processed can be read.

Optionally, the code changing apparatus 11 may further include an input unit for receiving device information of the target compatible device input from the outside.

In another embodiment, the function of the code changing device 11 may be split, and the function of network connection with the server and the function of communication connection with the optical module to be processed are respectively implemented by different electronic devices. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a code modifying system according to another embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 4, the code changing system includes a code changing device 41, a code changing platform 42 and a server 43, wherein the code changing device 41 is in communication connection with the code changing platform 42, and the code changing platform 42 is connected with the server 43 through a network.

As shown in fig. 4, the transcoder 41 is connected to an electrical interface of the optical module to be processed 44 that requires compatible code modification, so that the transcoder 41 can acquire module information from the optical module to be processed 44.

For example, after the to-be-processed optical module 44 is connected to the transcoder 41, the two establish a communication channel through a standard IIC (Inter-Integrated Circuit, integrated circuit bus) protocol, where the transcoder 41 is a master, the to-be-processed optical module 44 is a slave, and the transcoder 41 can read or write data from or into a specified memory address of the to-be-processed optical module 44 based on the IIC protocol.

Alternatively, the code changer 41 and the code changing platform 42 may be connected by wireless communication or wired communication.

In the code changing system shown in fig. 4, the code changing device 41 and the code changing platform 42 together perform the function of the code changing device 11 in the code changing system shown in fig. 1. The code changing device 41 is in communication connection with the code changing platform 42, and the code changing device 41 is connected with an electrical interface of the optical module to be processed and realizes corresponding functions; the code changing platform 42 is connected with a server network and realizes corresponding functions.

The following describes the procedure of performing the code changing by using the code changing system in fig. 4 by taking a switch as an example, if it is assumed that the client needs to use the network device as switch a (where a may be a brand of switch), the existing optical module X1 on hand is not the original light distribution module of switch a, and thus cannot be compatible with switch a. In order to apply the optical module X1 to the switch a, the optical module X1 needs to be subjected to compatible code modification.

The process of modifying the compatible code in the optical module X1 by using the code modifying system in fig. 4 according to the embodiment of the present application is specifically:

(1) The device information of the switch a (where the device information may be brand information of the brand switch a) is input into the transcoding platform 42, and the transcoding platform 42 transmits the device information to the server 43.

(2) The code changer 41 is connected with the electrical interface of the optical module X1, and firstly performs a reading operation on the optical module X1 to obtain module information, and then sends the module information to the server 43 through the code changing platform 42.

(3) The server looks up the compatible code Y corresponding to the device information and sends it to the code altering platform 42.

(4) If the module information includes a unique identifier Z read from a specific memory area, the server 43 searches for a configuration file B uniquely corresponding to the unique identifier Z and sends the configuration file B to the code changing platform 42; the code-changing platform 42 sends the compatible code Y and the configuration file B to the code-changing device 41.

(5) The code changer 41 unlocks the optical module X1 by using the configuration file B; if the unlocking is successful, the code changer 41 re-writes the compatible code Y into the optical module X1 by using the configuration file B, thereby completing the modification of the compatible code of the optical module X1.

Since the code modifier 41 reads the unique identifier Z in the specific memory area of the optical module X1, which indicates that the code modifying operation is performed on the optical module X1, it can be determined that the configuration file B corresponding to the unique identifier Z is the configuration file of the optical module X1, and thus the probability of successful unlocking is high. Therefore, unlocking and code changing can be completed through pairing of configuration files at one time, and unlocking and code changing efficiency is improved.

(6) If no information is read in a specific memory area of the optical module X1, or if the code changer 41 uses the configuration file B to unlock the optical module X1 but fails to unlock, the server 43 uses the model information of the optical module X1 in the module information to find the configuration file C associated with the model information from the history code change record.

(7) If there is only one configuration file C, the server 43 transmits the configuration file C to the code changer 41 through the code changing platform 42, and the code changer 41 uses the configuration file C to unlock the optical module X1; if the unlocking is successful, the code changer 41 writes the compatible code Y into the optical module X1 according to the configuration file C, thereby completing the modification of the compatible code of the optical module X1.

(8) If the number of the configuration files C is multiple, the server sorts the configuration files C according to the sequence of the number of times of successful code changing in the history code changing record from more to less, and sequentially sends the configuration files C to the code changing platform 42. The code-altering platform 42 in turn sends a plurality of configuration files C to the code-altering device 41. The code changer 41 sequentially uses a plurality of configuration files C to unlock the optical module X1 until the unlocking is successful; the code modifier 41 writes the compatible code Y into the optical module X1 according to the configuration file C, thereby completing modification of the compatible code of the optical module X1.

When the unique identifier is not read from the specific memory area of the optical module 44 to be processed by the code changer 41, or the configuration file corresponding to the unique identifier fails to be unlocked, a history code changing record is introduced, and as the configuration file which is matched with the model information in the history record and has more successful code changing times is a more common configuration file, the probability of successful unlocking by using the configuration file is higher, so that the corresponding configuration files are sequentially utilized to unlock the optical module according to the order of more successful times, the unlocking efficiency of the configuration file can be improved, and the code changing efficiency is further improved.

For ease of understanding, the specific structures of the code changer 41 and the code changing platform 42 are exemplarily described below.

Fig. 5 is a schematic block diagram of a code changer 41 according to an embodiment of the application, and as shown in fig. 5, the code changer 41 includes: at least one processor 411 (only one processor is shown in fig. 5), a memory 412 and a computer program 413 stored in the memory 412 and executable on the at least one processor 411, the processor 411 implementing part of the steps performed by the code altering means in the embodiment of the method for altering an arbitrary optical module compatible code of the application when the computer program 413 is executed.

In the embodiment, the specific structure of the server 43 is similar to that of the server 12 in fig. 3, and will not be described here. The difference is that the network module in the server 43 is used for network connection with the transcoding platform in this embodiment.

The following describes an exemplary modification method of the optical module compatible code according to the present application in combination with a specific embodiment. The method for modifying the optical module compatible code is applied to a code modifying system shown in fig. 1.

Fig. 7 is an interaction diagram of a method for modifying an optical module compatible code according to an embodiment of the present application. By way of example and not limitation, the method for modifying the optical module compatible code comprises the following steps:

and step 701, the code changing device acquires equipment information of target compatible equipment, and sends the equipment information to the server, wherein the target compatible equipment is equipment which needs to be compatible for the optical module to be processed.

In an embodiment, the target compatible device refers to a network device to which the optical module to be processed needs to be compatible. For example, suppose that a customer needs to use a network device as switch a, the existing optical module X1 is not the original optical module of switch a, and the optical module X1 is not compatible with switch a. In order to apply the optical module X1 to the switch a, a compatible code modification of the optical module X1 is required; wherein switch a is the target compatible device.

The device information of the target compatible device may be a model, a brand, or a manufacturer of the target compatible device, etc. The acquisition of the device information may be entered by the user into the transcoding means.

Step S702, the code changing device acquires module information of the optical module to be processed from the optical module to be processed and sends the module information to the server.

In step S703, the server obtains a first compatible code corresponding to the device information according to the device information.

Step S704, if the module information includes the identification information of the optical module to be processed, the server obtains a first configuration file corresponding to the identification information according to the identification information, and sends the first compatible code and the first configuration file to the code modifying device.

The identification information of the optical module represents the manufacturer of the optical module. But the identification information is not information carried by the optical module when leaving the factory; but marking information of the optical module of the known manufacturer in the history code changing process.

In one embodiment, the manner in which the code changing device obtains the identification information may be: the code changing device directly reads the identification information from the preset memory area of the optical module to be processed. And the direct reading mode is utilized, so that the identification information is obtained more simply and conveniently.

The preset memory area refers to a specific memory address corresponding to the optical module. For example, a specific memory area in an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable read only memory ) of the corresponding optical module.

In an embodiment, the manufacturer of the optical module is marked by storing identification information for identifying the manufacturer of the optical module in a fixed preset memory area. By reading the data of the preset memory area of the optical module, the marked optical module can be matched with the configuration file quickly, and the method is simple and convenient to realize.

It can be understood that the server stores the association relationship between the device information and the compatible code, and also stores the association relationship between the identification information and the configuration file. The first compatible code is a compatible code corresponding to the equipment information in the server, and the first configuration file is a configuration file corresponding to the identification information in the server.

Optionally, the device information and the compatible code, the identification information and the configuration file in the server are in one-to-one correspondence.

The configuration file refers to a hardware configuration parameter of the optical module, more specifically, a specific parameter of a writing operation step performed on the optical module, and the hardware configuration parameters of different optical module manufacturers are different.

Optionally, the configuration file may include a power-on delay (0-4000 ms), a page write delay (0-2000 ms), a password (which may be an 8-bit hexadecimal number, FFFFFFFF written without password), a page write byte number (4/8/16/32/64/128), a special operation before writing a code, a special operation after writing a code, and the like.

Step 705, the code changing device uses the first configuration file to unlock the optical module to be processed.

In an embodiment, the unlocking process is specifically a process of performing preliminary matching between the configuration file and the optical module.

In one embodiment, the unlocking process may include: the code changing device analyzes the configuration file to obtain corresponding hardware parameters, wherein the hardware parameters are operation process parameters for writing data; the code changing device writes preset check data into the optical module based on hardware parameters; after the writing operation is completed, the code changing device reads the data written in the optical module to obtain verification data; if the verification data are the same as the preset verification data, the code changing device determines that the unlocking is successful; if the verification data is different from the preset verification data, the code changing device determines that the unlocking fails.

In an embodiment, the preset check data is generally a shorter byte, for example, "32b×3". The preset check data is used for preliminarily verifying whether the writing operation of the optical module can be realized by utilizing the hardware configuration parameters in the configuration file.

Optionally, when a plurality of configuration files are needed to be adopted to unlock the optical module to be processed in sequence, preset check data used for unlocking can be designed differently, and specifically, the preset check data used in the current unlocking process is different from the verification data read out in the previous unlocking process. Preferably, all characters of the preset verification data used in the current unlocking process are different from those of the verification data read out in the previous unlocking process.

In an embodiment, the preset verification data used in the current unlocking process is different from the verification data read in the previous unlocking process, so that data written in the optical module during the previous unlocking operation can be avoided, the read result of the current unlocking operation is influenced, and for example, false unlocking success can be avoided. The larger the difference between the preset verification data used in the current unlocking process and the verification data read out in the previous unlocking process is, the better the occurrence of false unlocking success can be avoided.

Specifically, false unlocking success refers to: if the preset check data used in the current unlocking process is the same as the verification data read out in the previous unlocking process, even if the current preset check data is not successfully written in the current unlocking process (for example, no data is written at all), the read verification data may be the data written in the previous unlocking process, and the unlocking failure is misjudged as successful unlocking at this time, which is called successful false unlocking.

For example, when the configuration file D1 is adopted for unlocking, for the optical module X3, the written preset check data is "B32Y", the read-out check data is "a32Y", and the written preset check data and the read-out check data are different, so that the unlocking fails; then, the configuration file D2 is used to unlock, and the preset verification data written in the configuration file D2 should be different from "a32Y", for example, "B32Y" (the partial characters are different), more preferably, "B43Z" or "C54S" (all the characters are different), etc.

Optionally, the area where the unlocking process data is written is a non-code-changing area, wherein the non-code-changing area refers to an area outside the area where the compatible code is located.

For the optical module, the memory area for storing the compatible code is a compatible code area, the package of the module is different, and the corresponding compatible code area is different. The non-compatible code region refers to a memory region of the optical module other than the compatible code region.

Optionally, in the unlocking process of the optical module, the writing position of the preset verification data is a non-compatible code area. The original compatible code of the optical module can not be changed in the unlocking process, so that at least the original function of the optical module can be guaranteed, the optical module is prevented from being damaged, and the optical module is protected to the greatest extent even if all configuration files cannot be successfully unlocked.

Illustratively, for an SFP (SMALL FORM PLUGGABLE, small form-factor pluggable) optical module, the compatible code regions are A0h and A2 page00/01h, and the other regions are non-compatible code regions. When the SFP optical module is unlocked, A2 Pages03 h-7 Fh can be used as writing positions of preset check data.

It can be appreciated that, in the unlocking process, the area where the preset check data is written may be set according to needs, which is not specifically limited herein.

Step S706, if the unlocking is successful, the code changing device changes the code of the optical module to be processed by using the first configuration file and the first compatible code.

In an embodiment, after the optical module to be processed is successfully unlocked by using the first configuration file, the code changing device performs a code changing operation on the optical module to be processed by using the first configuration file. The code changing operation specifically refers to that the code changing device writes the first compatible code into the optical module to be processed, and the first compatible code can cover the original compatible code in the optical module to be processed.

The code changing operation and the unlocking operation have great similarity, and the difference is that the code changing operation is the operation aiming at the first compatible code, and the unlocking operation is the operation aiming at the preset check data. Optionally, the code changing operation specifically includes: the code changing device writes the first compatible code into the optical module to be processed based on the hardware parameters corresponding to the first configuration file, and deletes the original initial compatible code of the optical module to be processed; after the writing operation is finished, the code changing device reads the data written in the optical module to be processed to obtain a verification compatible code; if the verification compatible code is the same as the first compatible code, the code changing device determines that the code changing is successful; if the verification compatible code is different from the first compatible code, the code changing device determines that the code changing fails. The hardware parameter corresponding to the first configuration file in the code changing operation may be a hardware parameter parsed in the unlocking operation.

In an optional embodiment, the module information acquired from the optical module to be processed by the code changing device further includes model information of the optical module to be processed, and in the case that the unlocking of the optical module to be processed fails in the first configuration file, as shown in fig. 7, the method for changing the compatible code of the optical module further includes:

step S707, if the unlocking fails, the code changing device sends an unlocking failure result to the server.

Step S708, the server obtains at least one second configuration file associated with the model information according to the model information, and sends the first compatible code and the at least one second configuration file to the code modifying device.

It is understood that the association relationship between the model information and the configuration file is stored in the server. The association is stored in the record information of the history transcoding process. And (3) in the record information of the history code changing process, the configuration file is associated with the model information by recording the model information of the corresponding optical module and the used configuration file.

The second configuration file in the embodiment may be a configuration file in any one of the transcoding information associated with the model information of the optical module to be processed in the server.

In the embodiment, since the association relationship between the model information and the configuration file is stored in the server, the server may search all the second configuration files associated with the model information from the association relationship according to the model information of the optical module to be processed.

Alternatively, the specific expression form of the association relationship between the model information and the configuration file may be an association table. However, the record information may also include model information of the corresponding optical module, for example, the record information M1 records a code changing process of the optical module X2, where the record information M1 may include model information of the optical module X2 and a used configuration file; the record information may include model information, a configuration file, and a transcoding result.

Step 709, the code changing device uses at least one second configuration file to unlock the optical module, and determines a target configuration file, where the target configuration file is the second configuration file in the at least one second configuration file that successfully unlocks the optical module to be processed.

In an embodiment, the optical module to be processed is unlocked by using at least one second configuration file, and the specific unlocking process is referred to in the foregoing, which is not described herein in detail. When a certain second configuration file can successfully unlock the optical module to be processed, the second configuration file is the target configuration file. The second configuration file associated with the model information is utilized to unlock the optical module to be processed, so that the unlocking efficiency can be effectively improved.

Optionally, a successful code changing record of each second configuration file is stored in the server, and the successful code changing record includes the number of times of successful code changing. When a plurality of second configuration files are provided, the plurality of second configuration files are needed to be used for unlocking the optical module to be processed under the condition, at the moment, the server can send the plurality of second configuration files to the code changing device one by one according to the sequence from the large number of times of successful code changing to the small number of times, and the code changing device sequentially uses the plurality of second configuration files for unlocking the optical module to be processed until the target configuration files of the optical module to be processed are successfully unlocked.

For example, assume that there are four second profiles W1, W2, W3, and W4, and the corresponding number of successful transcoding times is 10, 6, 2, and 0, respectively. Firstly, unlocking an optical module to be processed by utilizing W1 with the largest success times, and if the unlocking is successful, determining candidate information corresponding to the W1 as target code changing information; and if the unlocking fails, the W2 immediately following the successful times is reused to unlock the optical module to be processed until a second configuration file capable of being successfully unlocked appears.

The more successful times of the code change, the greater the probability that the corresponding second configuration file is used for the code change, so the greater the probability that the second configuration file can be successfully unlocked is possible. In the above embodiment, for the case that there are a plurality of second configuration files, the number of successful code changing times is associated with the unlocking order, so that the screening efficiency of the second configuration files can be improved.

It can be understood that when all the associated second configuration files cannot be successfully unlocked, other configuration files can be obtained from the server to unlock the optical module to be processed.

And step S710, the code changing device changes the codes of the optical module to be processed by using the target configuration file and the first compatible code.

In an embodiment, when unlocking of the optical module to be processed fails by using the first configuration file corresponding to the identification information, the server obtains the second configuration file associated with the model information by using the model information of the optical module to be processed. In the method, the second configuration file related to the model information of the optical module to be processed is adopted to unlock the optical module to be processed, and generally, if one configuration file is related to the model information of the module to be processed, the configuration file is stated to successfully change codes of the optical module with the same model information; therefore, the probability of successful unlocking of the optical module to be processed by the configuration file is higher, and therefore the unlocking efficiency can be improved.

In another embodiment, if the identification information of the optical module to be processed is not obtained, in order to better match the optical module to be processed with the configuration file, model information of the optical module to be processed may be obtained, and then steps S708 to S710 are performed. In this case, the specific contents of steps S708 and S710 may be described above, and will not be described here.

In one embodiment, in the case of performing the code changing of the optical module to be processed by executing steps S708 to S710, if the final code changing result is successful, the code changing device may acquire the identification information corresponding to the optical module to be processed and write the identification information into the preset memory area of the optical module to be processed. The code changing device obtains the identification information corresponding to the optical module to be processed, and the code changing device generates the identification information according to the code changing condition of the optical module to be processed.

Optionally, the code changing device writes the generated identification information into a preset memory area of the optical module to be processed, which may be to cover original identification information in the optical module to be processed with the generated identification information, or write the generated identification information when the identification information does not exist in the optical module to be processed.

In one embodiment, after the code changing device obtains the identification information corresponding to the optical module to be processed and writes the identification information into the preset memory area of the optical module to be processed, the code changing device further displays the code changing result and sends the target identification information, the second configuration file and the code changing result to the server.

The code changing device displays the code changing result, so that a user can know the code changing result more clearly. And sending the destination identification information, the second configuration file and the code changing result to the cloud server, so that the server can store and calculate the data conveniently.

Alternatively, the server may be a cloud server, which may perform AI (Artificial Intelligence ) computation on the code-change data. Exemplary AI calculations may include, but are not limited to, the following:

(1) The cloud server can count the types and the number of the optical modules of the code changing of the user, the types of compatible equipment, all time length of the code changing, configuration files, compatible code files and the like.

(2) The cloud server can analyze the behavior of the user based on the data in the step (1), and the types of the optical modules commonly used by the user and the types of the compatible devices are the same, so that the product can be pushed to the user, and the types of the commonly used compatible devices are more forward and humanized.

(3) The cloud server can analyze the code changing efficiency based on the data in the step (1), analyze the time consumed by each stage, and can pointedly optimize the stage with larger consumed time to provide the whole code changing efficiency

(4) The number of the compatible code files is limited, when the consumption number of the compatible code files reaches a threshold value, the cloud server can send notification reminding to the code changing device, and meanwhile, the cloud server can directly pull the compatible code files from a local database to increase inventory.

It should be understood that the sequence number of each step in the foregoing embodiment does not mean that the execution sequence of each process should be determined by the function and the internal logic, and should not limit the implementation process of the embodiment of the present application.
