All other embodiments, which are obtained by a person skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present application, fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein, and that the objects identified by "first," "second," etc. are generally of a type not limited to the number of objects, for example, the first object may be one or more. Furthermore, in the description and claims, "and/or" means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/", generally means that the associated object is an "or" relationship.

The method, the device and the electronic device for managing network devices provided by the embodiment of the application are described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In some embodiments of the present application, there is provided a method for managing a network device, performed by a master device, fig. 1 shows one of flowcharts of the method for managing a network device according to some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 1, where the method includes:

step 102, detecting, within a first set of internet protocol addresses, a slave device connected to any one of the internet protocol addresses within the first set of internet protocol addresses.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first set of internet protocol addresses refers to a range of IP addresses that may be allocated to the slave device in the network environment where the current master device is located.

Specifically, fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of a network structure in some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 2, multiple intelligent devices are connected together through a local area network for a common home internet of things environment, where a master control device specifically refers to a device serving as a "brain" in the internet of things to control other intelligent home devices, and a slave device specifically refers to other intelligent home devices in the internet of things, where the smart sound box, the smart electric cooker, the smart television, the mobile phone a and the mobile phone B shown in fig. 2 may be slave devices.

The number of IP of home lan is limited, for example, the mask segment in home is typically 24-bit mask segment, if the IP address of the master device is: 192.168.0.4/24, gateway address of 192.168.0.1, and available IP addresses of 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 can be determined under the condition of starting dynamic host configuration protocol (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, DCHP), and the IP of the main control equipment is removed, so that 252 available IP are remained.

The first set of internet protocol addresses is the set of available IP addresses after the known occupied IP is removed from the total available IP addresses.

Step 104, in the case of detecting the first slave device, adding the device information of the first slave device to the managed device list.

In the embodiment of the application, the master control device detects each IP address in the first Internet protocol address combination respectively and judges whether the slave device which is not recorded exists. If the first slave device which is not recorded in the managed device list is detected, the device information of the first slave device is acquired, and the device information of the first slave device is added to the managed device list.

After the device information of the first slave device is added to the managed device list, the first internet protocol address set is synchronously updated, and the detected device is removed therefrom, so that the detected device can not be sent to the detected slave device any more in the subsequent detection, the network resource is prevented from being wasted, and the operation of the detected slave device is prevented from being interfered.

Step 106, when a device instruction for controlling the first slave device is received and the first slave device is in an on-line state, the device instruction is sent to the first slave device.

In the embodiment of the application, when receiving the device instruction sent by the user and used for controlling the first slave device, the master control device judges whether the hosted first slave device is on line or not, namely, whether the hosted first slave device is in a normal working state or not.

And if the first slave device is judged to be online, the device instruction is sent to the first slave device, the first slave device is controlled to execute the corresponding device function through the device instruction, meanwhile, the master control device receives first response information of the first slave device for the device instruction, and whether the first slave device successfully responds to the device instruction of the user is determined based on the first response information.

Step 108, outputting corresponding notification information based on the first response information corresponding to the device instruction.

In the embodiment of the application, if the main control equipment receives the first response information and the first response information indicates that the equipment function corresponding to the equipment instruction is successfully executed, the main control equipment outputs corresponding notification information to the user to notify the user that the control is successful.

If the main control equipment receives the first response information and the first response information indicates that the equipment function corresponding to the equipment instruction is not successfully executed, the main control equipment outputs corresponding notification information to a user, notifies the user that the control is not successful and prompts the user with error information.

If the main control equipment does not receive the first response information within a preset time period, generating the prompting information of equipment errors.

By means of the method, the device information of the slave device in the current local area network environment can be detected rapidly, specific devices can be found rapidly, for example, when a user cannot find a mobile phone, voice control can be conducted on a master control device, for example, an intelligent sound box, after the intelligent sound box receives a voice command of the user for finding the mobile phone, the mobile phone is detected in an IP address set of the current gateway, and after the mobile phone is detected, a device command is sent to the mobile phone to control the mobile phone to make a sound, and the user can find the mobile phone rapidly.

By way of example, by rapidly detecting device information of a slave device in a current local area network environment, rapid control of an intelligent device in the current network environment can be achieved. If the user wants to start timing, voice control can be performed on the main control equipment, such as an intelligent sound box, after the intelligent sound box receives a voice instruction of starting timing by the user, equipment with timing function, such as an intelligent alarm clock, is detected in the IP address set of the current gateway, after the intelligent alarm clock is detected, an equipment instruction is sent to the intelligent alarm clock, and the intelligent alarm clock is controlled to start countdown according to the timing duration input by the user.

When the master control device searches the slave devices, the master control device detects the available slave devices in the set first internet protocol address set, adds the detected first slave devices to the managed device list after detecting the available slave devices, and does not repeatedly detect the detected first slave devices in the follow-up detection, so that the searched devices can be prevented from frequently receiving UDP broadcast packets, and network resource overhead is reduced.

In some embodiments of the application, before probing, within the first set of internet protocol addresses, a slave device connected to any one of the internet protocol addresses within the first set of internet protocol addresses, the method further comprises:

determining a second internet protocol address set based on a dynamic host configuration protocol of the master control device;

determining a third internet protocol address set according to the managed device list, wherein the internet protocol addresses in the third internet protocol address set are detected internet protocol addresses of the slave devices, and the third internet protocol address set is a subset of the second internet protocol address set;

the first set of internet protocol addresses is determined from a complement of the third set of internet protocol addresses in the second set of internet protocol addresses.

In the embodiment of the application, the dynamic host configuration protocol is DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol ) which allows a server (such as a gateway device like a router) to dynamically allocate an IP address and configuration information to a client (such as a smart device like a mobile phone, a smart home appliance, etc.).

The main control equipment determines a second internet protocol address set based on the current DHCP protocol, specifically according to own IP and mask, wherein the second internet protocol address set is determined by removing IP information such as network segments, broadcasting, own IP and the like in a local area network connected with the main control equipment, and is a set of all available IP in the local area network.

The third set of internet protocol addresses is a set of IP of slave devices that have been detected, determined from the list of managed devices.

Among the second set of internet protocol addresses, the IP set of the slave device that has been detected, i.e. the third set of internet protocol addresses, is removed, and the resulting first set of internet protocol addresses is the IP set that may be allocated to the slave device that has not been detected.

The embodiment of the application removes the IP set of the detected slave device from all available IP sets of the current network, thereby avoiding repeatedly detecting the detected slave device, avoiding disturbing the detected slave device and saving network resources.

In some embodiments of the application, the management method further comprises:

determining a third internet protocol address set according to the managed device list, wherein the internet protocol address in the third internet protocol address set is the detected internet protocol address of the slave device;

based on the Internet control message protocol, detecting equipment for each Internet protocol address in the third Internet protocol address set;

and deleting the device information corresponding to any one of the internet protocol addresses in the managed device list in the case that the device detection result of any one of the internet protocol addresses in the third internet protocol address set is detection failure.

In the embodiment of the application, an internet control message protocol (Internet Control Message Protocol, ICMP) is used for transmitting control information, a fourth internet protocol address combination is a set of the IPs in a to-be-hosted state and an abnormal state, and the master control device pulls the set of the IPs in the to-be-hosted state and the abnormal state from the hosted device list and performs ICMP detection.

The IP in the state to be hosted may specifically be a state to be hosted that the user designates to add, for example, the user purchases a sweeping robot newly, and manually configures the sweeping robot to be networked, where the IP address connected to the sweeping robot is the IP address in the state to be hosted.

The IP in the abnormal state may be specifically a slave device that has been detected, but is currently in a heartbeat deactivated state, an offline state or a fault state, which results in IP addresses different from each other.

And when detecting that the detection result of the first internet protocol address in the third internet protocol address set is detection failure, rejecting the equipment in the managed equipment list, namely removing the slave equipment which cannot work normally.

Optionally, the record information such as the managed device list and the like can be stored in the memory database of the main control device and subjected to persistence treatment, so that the storage efficiency is improved, and the problems such as data loss and the like caused by restarting the device are avoided.

According to the embodiment of the application, the slave equipment which cannot normally work is identified by detecting the IP address in the abnormal or to-be-hosted state, so that the hosting efficiency is improved.

In some embodiments of the application, before adding the device information of the first slave device to the list of managed devices, the method further comprises:

transmitting user datagram protocol unicast information to the first slave device, the user datagram protocol unicast information including at least one of the following information: internet protocol address information of the master control equipment, interface information corresponding to the master control equipment and identification information of the master control equipment;

The device information of the first slave device is added to the managed device list, including:

in the event that device information corresponding to user datagram protocol unicast information is received, the device information is added to the list of managed devices.

In the embodiment of the application, the master device unicasts a user datagram protocol (User Datagram Protocol, UDP) to all detected slave devices, specifically including the first slave device. The UDP information includes, but is not limited to, IP information of the master device, interface information for receiving response information, and a displacement identification code, i.e., identification information, of which the master is a slave. The identification information is used for helping the main control equipment to identify the authenticity of the response information.

After sending the UDP unicast information to the first slave device, the first slave device prompts the user to confirm whether or not hosting is performed. And after receiving the confirmation input of the user, the device information of the device, namely the first slave device, is sent to the master control device as response information.

Illustratively, the device information includes a device name, a device IP, device interface information, a device identification code, and the like of the slave device. The device interface information includes, but is not limited to, a health check interface, a control interface, and the like. Meanwhile, the first slave device reserves the unique identification code and the notification interface information of the master control device.

After the master device receives the device information of the first slave device, the device information of the first slave device is added into the managed device list, and the state of the first slave device is updated from "to be managed" to "managed".

According to the embodiment of the application, the detected slave equipment is subjected to UDP unicast, so that the control structure of the managed slave equipment can be independently customized without fixed requirements, unified management of intelligent equipment with different manufacturers and different specifications can be realized, meanwhile, equipment in a network can be prevented from frequently receiving UDP broadcast, and no disturbing management is realized.

sending a probe heartbeat message to each slave device in the list of managed devices;

setting the equipment state of the second slave equipment to be an on-line state under the condition that second response information corresponding to the heartbeat detection information sent by the second slave equipment is received in a preset time period;

and setting the equipment state of the second slave equipment to be an offline state under the condition that the second response information is not received within the preset time period.

In embodiments of the present application, fig. 3 illustrates a logical schematic diagram of heartbeat probing of some embodiments of the present application, where a master device periodically sends a heartbeat probing message to the IP of each hosted slave device in the list of hosted devices, as illustrated in fig. 3.

Illustratively, the probe heartbeat message may be sent and received through a custom health check interface.

After receiving the heartbeat detection message sent by the master control device, the slave device returns second response information to the master control device through the same interface, wherein the second response information is used for indicating that the current slave device of the master control device is online and can normally send and receive information.

And if the second response information sent by the second slave device is received by the master device within the preset duration, the master device sets the device state of the second slave device to be in an on-line state. It can be appreciated that if the current device state of the second slave device is an offline state, the offline state is updated to an online state. If the current device state of the second slave device is an online state, the online state is maintained unchanged.

If the second response information sent by the second slave device is not received by the master device within the preset duration, the master device sets the device state of the second slave device to be in an offline state.

In some embodiments, after setting the device state of the second slave device to the offline state, the master device outputs corresponding device state information to the user, reminding the user that the second slave device is offline.

According to the embodiment of the application, the hosted device is detected to acquire and update the device state of the hosted slave device in real time, so that the user does not need to repeatedly and automatically confirm the device state, and the hosting efficiency is improved.

and when receiving the state information of the third slave device, updating the device information of the third slave device in the managed device list according to the state information.

In the embodiment of the application, the slave device in the hosting state, such as the third slave device, periodically reports the state information to the master device according to the reserved notification interface and identification information of the master identification, wherein the state information comprises the device name, the device IP, the device interface information, the device identification information and the like.

In some scenarios, for example, after the third slave device restarts or disconnects from the network, the third slave device reports status information to the master device immediately after the start-up or networking is successful.

After receiving the status information reported by the slave device, the master device checks the received information, and if the information of the slave device changes, if the information of the slave device is found to be repeated, the master device covers the original IP information, so that the automatic update of the information of the third slave device is limited.

According to the embodiment of the application, the slave device actively reports the state information to the master control device, so that the scenes such as IP change caused by restarting the device and reconnecting the disconnected network can be effectively treated, the managed state is not required to be manually reconfigured by a user, and the equipment managed efficiency is improved.

In some embodiments of the present application, fig. 4 shows a second flowchart of a method for managing a network device according to some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 4, where the method includes:

step 502A, calculating an IP range;

step 502B pulls the IP ranges for the "to be hosted" and "abnormal" states.

The main control equipment removes information such as network segments, broadcasting, self IP and the like according to the self IP and the mask, and calculates the available IP range in the local area network as a range 1; the main control equipment is used as an IP range 2 according to the current equipment list; and removing the range 2 from the range 1 to obtain a final IP range to be detected.

At step 504, ICMP is probed and updated.

And detecting the IP range to be detected calculated in the step 1 through an ICMP protocol, acquiring an available IP range, adding equipment information by the main control equipment, and marking the state as detected.

And asynchronously, pulling the IP ranges of the 'to-be-hosted' and 'abnormal state' states in the equipment list, performing ICMP detection, and if the ICMP detection is not found to be successful, removing the ICMP detection from the equipment list.

The record information is preferably stored in a database and the file is persistent, so that the problems of efficiency and restarting recovery can be effectively solved.

The UDP information includes, but is not limited to, information such as IP information of the master device, information of a reception response interface, and a unique identification code of the master device. The unique identification code can be used for the master control equipment to identify the authenticity of the response information. After the message is sent, the device state is updated to be "to be hosted".

After the hosting device receives the request, the user is required to confirm whether the hosting is carried out or not, and after the confirmation, all information of the hosting device is transmitted to the main control device. The response message may be sent singly or in multiple pieces including, but not limited to, device name, device IP, device interface information, device identification code, etc. The device identification code is used for checking the hosting device after the master control device sends the device interface information to the hosting device. The device interface information includes, but is not limited to, a health check interface, a control interface, and the like. Meanwhile, the equipment to be hosted keeps the unique identification code and the notification interface information of the master control equipment.

Step 508, collect and store the response.

After receiving the response, the master control equipment authenticates the unique identification code of the master control equipment and updates the response information into the storage for storage. Updating the device state to "hosted".

The logic of the heartbeat mechanism is shown in fig. 3 and includes:

step 1: and the main control equipment sends a message to the health check interface according to the IP range of the managed state in the equipment list to perform heartbeat detection. If a normal response is received, the device state is updated to "running". If no, updating the device state to be an abnormal state.

Step 2: and the hosting device periodically reports the state information according to the reserved main control device notification interface and the unique identification code. If the managed device is shut down and restarted, the state information is immediately reported after the managed device is started. The reported information includes, but is not limited to, device name, device IP, device interface information, device identification code, etc. And after receiving the information, the master control equipment performs verification, and adds the verification to the equipment list. And if the IP information is found to be repeated, the original IP equipment information is covered.

Step 1 and step 2 are not related, and the master control equipment and the hosting equipment are respectively and periodically sent to each other.
