Description

Multicast technology-based equipment configuration method and device and electronic equipment

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of network communication technologies, and in particular, to a device configuration method and apparatus based on a multicast technology, and an electronic device.

Background

In the current network environment, multiple devices need to be configured one by one, and the configuration process is complex and redundant. For example, assuming that two devices (device a and device B) exist in a local network, when a hot standby configuration or a load configuration is required for multiple devices, the IP (Internet Protocol, i.e., internet protocol) address of each device (i.e., the IP addresses of device a and device B) must be planned in advance. Then, it is necessary to enter the management interface of the device a to configure the network (e.g., route, gateway, etc.) of the device a and various services (e.g., data synchronization, hot standby, or load, etc., such as configuring keepaled (i.e., a virtual routing redundancy protocol) and LVS REDIS (i.e., a virtual server cluster system, etc., to implement the corresponding services)). And also needs to go to another device (i.e., device B) to perform the same configuration step. However, when cluster configuration is supported, the configuration portion of the device will be a complex process. In addition, once a configuration problem or a functional problem occurs in a certain device node, repeated inspection work is required for each device node, which consumes a lot of effort and time.

In view of the above problems, no effective solution has been proposed at present.

The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the following examples.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an embodiment of a device configuration method based on a multicast technology, it should be noted that the steps illustrated in the flowchart of the drawings may be performed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and that although a logical order is illustrated in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps illustrated or described may be performed in an order different from that herein.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an alternative device configuration method based on multicast technology according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the steps of:

Step S101, for each device in a preset network, a control device obtains service interface description information of a third party program, where each device is pre-deployed with a corresponding third party program, the third party program pre-stores configuration data of different services, and the service interface description information includes: a plurality of service interface descriptions, each service interface description relating to a service interface for accessing configuration data of a service in question.

Step S102, broadcasting the service interface description information of the equipment in a preset network by adopting a multicast technology, and monitoring the service interface description information of other equipment.

And step S103, under the condition that the service interface description information of other equipment is monitored, the monitored other equipment is characterized as the neighbor equipment of the equipment, and the service interface description information of the neighbor equipment is stored in a local database of the equipment.

Step S104, selecting a target device from all devices in a preset network, and carrying out service configuration on each neighbor device of the target device by adopting a management interface of the target device, wherein when carrying out service configuration, service interface description information of the neighbor device is used as reference information.

Through the steps, for each device in the preset network, the control device can acquire the service interface description information of the third party program, broadcast the service interface description information of the device in the preset network by adopting a multicast technology, monitor the service interface description information of other devices, characterize the monitored other devices as neighbor devices of the device under the condition of monitoring the service interface description information of the other devices, store the service interface description information of the neighbor devices into a local database of the device, select the target device from all the devices in the preset network, and perform service configuration on each neighbor device of the target device by adopting a management interface of the target device. In the embodiment of the invention, each device in the preset network can be controlled to acquire the service interface description information of the corresponding third party program, then the multicast technology is adopted to broadcast the service interface description information of the device in the preset network, meanwhile, the service interface description information of other devices can be monitored, if the service interface description information of the other devices is monitored, the monitored other devices can be used as the neighbor devices of the device, then one target device can be selected from all the devices, and the service configuration is carried out on all the neighbor devices by adopting the management interface of the target device according to the corresponding service interface description information, so that the devices in the preset network can autonomously find the other devices, and the service configuration of all the other devices can be managed by any one device, thereby reducing the configuration process, and further solving the technical problems that the configuration process is complicated and redundant because the service configuration needs to be carried out in each device respectively in the related technology.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the following steps.

An optional embodiment, before the control device obtains the service interface description information of the third party program, further includes: determining an address prefix of a preset link address; for each device, acquiring a network card address corresponding to the device, and generating an address suffix of the device based on the network card address; and constructing a preset link address of the equipment based on the address prefix and the address suffix.

In the embodiment of the invention, for the control of a device, the IP address of the device needs to be known first. For IP addresses configured using the IPv4 (Internet Protocol vers ion, i.e., internet communication protocol version four) protocol, an IP address that does not conflict with the IP addresses of other devices cannot be configured in advance unless a unified configuration center or protocol (e.g., dial-up network or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configurat ion Protocol, i.e., dynamic host configuration protocol) dynamic address allocation) is used, which of course requires that dial-up servers or DHCP servers, etc. are again configured in advance, which increases the operating cost and the reliability of these servers is also low.

Thus, this embodiment may solve the above IP planning problem using the IPv6 (Internet Protocol Vers ion, i.e., internet protocol version 6) protocol. The address allocation mechanism based on the IPv6 protocol can firstly determine the address prefix (for example, FE80: 64) of a preset link address (namely, a local link address), then can acquire the network card address (namely, MAC (Media Access Control Address, namely, a media access control address) address corresponding to each device, wherein the MAC address has uniqueness), can generate the address suffix of the corresponding device according to the network card address (namely, the MAC of the network card is used for generating the IPv6 address suffix by adopting an algorithm), and then constructs the preset link address of the corresponding device based on the address prefix and the address suffix, thereby ensuring the uniqueness of the IP address of the device, effectively avoiding the conflict between the IP address of the device and the IP addresses of other devices, and further effectively avoiding the problem of IP advanced planning.

Optionally, before the control device obtains the service interface description information of the third party program, the method further includes: for each third party program, configuring each service in the third party program based on a preset remote call protocol and equipment requirements; configuring a preset interface for each third-party program, wherein the preset interface is used for acquiring service interface description information of the third-party program; each third party program is deployed on a corresponding device.

In the embodiment of the invention, because the data required to be centrally managed and controlled by different devices are different (namely, some devices need to centrally manage the data A and some devices need to centrally manage the data B), in order to ensure that remote management configuration can be applied to different devices, JSONRPC (JavaScript Object Notat ion Remote Procedure Cal l, a lightweight remote procedure call protocol) can be used for docking different services, other devices can be realized by using different JSONRPCs, thus different interfaces are realized, and different data can be acquired by using stacking to perform interface call.

In the embodiment of the invention, a corresponding third party program can be deployed for each device, the third party program can pre-store configuration data of different services (i.e. data needed when the device is configured with the services), specifically, each service in the third party program can be configured based on a preset remote call protocol (i.e. JSONRPC) and device requirements (e.g. load requirements, hot standby requirements, etc.), then a preset interface (e.g. method_registry interface) is configured for each third party program, and the preset interface is used for acquiring service interface description information of the third party program (i.e. the third party program can use JSONRPC to realize own services and at least one interface method_registry to illustrate own service interface, so that the device can acquire service interface description of the third party program by accessing the method_registry interface of the third party program). Thereafter, each third party program is deployed on the corresponding device.

In the embodiment of the present invention, each device in a preset network (i.e., a pre-built local network) is pre-deployed with a corresponding third party program, where the third party program pre-stores configuration data of different services, may obtain a service interface description of the third party program through accessing a method_region interface of the corresponding third party program (i.e., for each device in the preset network, a control device obtains service interface description information of the third party program), where the service interface description information includes: a plurality of service interface descriptions, each service interface description relating to a service interface for accessing configuration data of a service in question.

In the embodiment of the invention, the IPV6 multicast technology can be used to announce the service interface description information of the device, and monitor the IPV6 multicast announcement of other devices on the link (i.e., on the preset network) (i.e., broadcast the service interface description information of the device in the preset network and monitor the service interface description information of other devices by adopting the multicast technology).

Optionally, broadcasting service interface description information of the device in the preset network by adopting a multicast technology, including: determining a multicast address of a preset network; characterizing a preset link address of the device as a source address and characterizing a multicast address as a destination address; and transmitting the service interface description information to the multicast address by adopting a multicast technology.

In the embodiment of the present invention, since each device already has a unique IPv6 address (i.e., a preset link address), an IPv6 multicast technique may be used, so that the device can know the preset link address of each other device. In this embodiment, the multicast address of the preset network may be determined first (for example, the multicast address may use FF 00:/8 as a prefix and is bound with the network card at the same time), when the device sends the data packet, the preset link address of the device may be used as the source address, the multicast address may be used as the destination address (the preset link address of the device is characterized as the source address, the multicast address is characterized as the destination address, and the service interface description information is sent to the multicast address by using the multicast technology), so that the preset link address of any other device may be obtained by any device, and thus any device may be used to manage all other devices, and further the device centralized management problem is solved.

Optionally, the step of monitoring service interface description information of other devices includes: monitoring the multicast address; judging whether the source address of the service interface description information is a preset link address of the equipment or not under the condition that the multicast address receives the service interface description information; and under the condition that the source address of the service interface description information is not the preset link address of the equipment, acquiring the service interface description information, and storing the service interface description information into a local database of the equipment.

In the embodiment of the invention, each device can monitor the multicast address, if the multicast address is monitored to receive the service interface description information, whether the source address of the received service interface description information is the preset link address of the device can be judged first, if the source address of the service interface description information is not the preset link address of the device, the service interface description information can be obtained, and the service interface description information is stored in the local database of the device.

In the embodiment of the invention, if the equipment monitors the service interface description information of other equipment, the monitored other equipment can be characterized as the neighbor equipment of the equipment, and then the service interface description information of the neighbor equipment is stored in the local database of the equipment.

Optionally, the step of performing service configuration on each neighbor device of the target device using the management interface of the target device includes: determining a source address corresponding to the service interface description information, and determining a neighbor link address of neighbor equipment based on the source address; analyzing the service interface description information to obtain a plurality of service interfaces; calling each service interface by adopting a preset calling tool, and acquiring configuration data of a service corresponding to the service interface; and on a management interface of the target equipment, carrying out service configuration on the neighbor equipment based on the neighbor link address and the configuration data, and returning a configuration result to the neighbor equipment based on the neighbor link address.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a target device may be selected randomly from all devices in a preset network, so as to perform configuration of all devices by using the target device (that is, a management interface of the target device is used to perform service configuration on each neighbor device of the target device, and when performing service configuration, service interface description information of the neighbor device is used as reference information), specifically: the method comprises the steps of determining a source address corresponding to service interface description information, determining a neighbor link address of neighbor equipment according to the source address, analyzing the service interface description information to obtain a plurality of service interfaces, calling each service interface by adopting a preset calling tool (namely, calling the service interface of the neighbor equipment (the neighbor equipment is equipment which is required to be monitored by using an IPV 6), acquiring configuration data of a service corresponding to the service interface, carrying out service configuration on the corresponding neighbor equipment on a management interface of target equipment according to the neighbor link address and the configuration data, returning a configuration result to the neighbor equipment according to the neighbor link address (namely, the target equipment remotely calls the service interface of a third-party program to carry out configuration, and returning the configuration result to the corresponding neighbor equipment).

Optionally, the device configuration method further includes: under the condition that the error service of the preset network is detected, determining a service interface related to the error service; determining equipment to be updated with configuration errors based on a service interface; and adjusting the configuration information of the equipment to be updated.

In the embodiment of the invention, if the error service of the preset network is detected, the service interface related to the error service can be directly determined, the equipment to be updated with the configuration error is determined according to the service interface, and the configuration information of the equipment to be updated is adjusted, so that the equipment with the configuration error can be directly determined without sequentially detecting the equipment one by one.
