BACKGROUND With the rapid development of communication technologies, the performance of base station controllers is becoming more and more powerful, and the number of base station boards is also increasing. Currently, the standard base station controller version loading process is as follows: downloading the software version to the main control board and activating the software version on the main control board; resetting the base station controller, each board (including the main control board and The controlled board is shut down. The controlled board is powered on and the main control board is accessed. The active version on the main control board is compared with the software version on the board. The version is requested and loaded into the controlled board. If they are consistent, no action is taken. The master board and the controlled board continue their services until all the controlled boards complete the software loading. However, the current base station controller has nearly one hundred controlled boards, and the related software version is about one hundred megabytes. Therefore, after the base station controller is reset, all the controlled boards can obtain the software version from the main control board. As a result, the response of the main control board is very slow. The software loading process may take several hours, and the time for interrupting the service greatly exceeds the requirements of the operator. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a software version loading method and a base station controller, which can improve the software version loading speed of the base station controller and reduce the power-on interruption service time of the base station controller. According to an aspect of the present invention, a software version loading method is provided, including: a master board downloading a software version, and distributing the software version to each controlled board; the master board activates the software on the board Version; Each controlled board loads the software version. According to another aspect of the present invention, a base station controller is provided, including: The main control board is used to download the software version. The software version is distributed to each controlled board and the software version is activated. The multiple controlled boards are used to load the software version. After the software version of the main control board is downloaded, the software version can be distributed to each controlled board, and then the software version of the main control board is activated. After the control board activates the software version, the software version is loaded. The main control board distributes the software version to the controlled boards in advance, and can be distributed in parallel. After the base station controller is powered on and reset, the controlled boards can obtain the software version from the main control board. The download time of the software version of the control board reduces the power-off offline time, and the download version and the distribution version do not interrupt the service. 1 is a flowchart of a method for loading a software version according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention; FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for loading a software version according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention; A flowchart of a loading method of a software version; FIG. 4 is a structural diagram of a base station controller according to an embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for loading a software version. After the software version is downloaded, the main control board can distribute the software version to each controlled board, and then activate the software version on the main control board. After the software version is activated on the master board, the software version is loaded. The main control board distributes the software version to the controlled boards in advance and can be distributed in parallel. Therefore, after the base station controller is powered on and reset, the controlled boards are required to obtain the software version from the main control board. The download time of the software version of each controlled board reduces the power-off offline time, and the downloaded version and the distributed version do not interrupt the service. As shown in FIG. 1 , the method for loading a software version according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes: Step S101: The main control board downloads a software version, and distributes the software version to each controlled board. When the main control board receives the download notification from the NMS, the software version is downloaded from the background network management system to the main control board of the base station controller. The download does not interrupt the services of the main control board and the controlled board. The background network management system actively transfers the software version to the main control board. The main control board saves the software version to the persistent storage of the main control board. The software version of the software is saved in the persistent storage of the main control board. When the main control board receives the notification from the background network management system, the software version is distributed to each of the specified controlled boards, and multiple software versions and multiple controlled boards can be run concurrently without interrupting the service. The software version is quickly delivered; of course, the main control board can also actively download the software version from the background network management system and directly distribute the software without the notification of the network management system; preferably, distribute the software version to each receiving When the board is controlled, the software version is saved to the persistent storage of the controlled board to ensure that the software version is not lost after the power is off. Only one software version is saved in the storage at a time; in step S102, the main control board activates the software version, and sends a software change notification to each controlled board; the main control board activates the main control board. The version of the software is specifically as follows: When receiving the activation command of the background network management system, the main control board sets an activation mark on the software version of the memory, and the software version is valid, that is, the software version is activated. The main control board can also activate the software version directly after distributing the software version, or activate the software version after the software version is distributed for a certain period of time, or activate the software version when the activation notification is received. After the master board activates the version software, the software change notification is sent to each controlled board. Step S103: When the controlled board receives the notification, the software version is loaded. The controlled board receives the notification and directly loads the version of the software saved in the memory. Using the loading method of the above software version, the base station controller can force the software version to be distributed to each controlled board without affecting the service, and can be distributed in parallel during distribution, without requiring each controlled board to be in the base station. After the controller is reset, the software version is requested from the main control board, which speeds up the download time of the software version, reduces the power-off offline time, and downloads the version and the distribution version without interrupting the service. Moreover, since the main control board activates the software version in the present invention, the software is sent to the controlled single book immediately. In addition, after receiving the change notification, the controlled board immediately loads the previously distributed software version, which ensures the consistency between the running version and the active version of the base station controller. The second embodiment of the present invention further provides a software version loading method. The main control board downloads the software version and distributes the software version to each controlled board. The main control board activates the software version, and each controlled board is in the control board. When the power is reset, the software version is loaded. Because the software version that needs to be updated has been distributed to each controlled single book, in this way, when the power is reset, each controlled board does not need to request the software version from the master control book. It can be loaded, which can improve the software version loading speed of the base station controller and reduce the power-on interruption service time of the base station controller. As shown in FIG. 2, a flowchart of a method for loading a software version according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention includes: Step S201: A software version is downloaded from a main control board, and the software version is distributed to each controlled board; When the board receives the download notification, the software version is downloaded from the background network management system to the persistent storage of the main control board. When receiving the notification, the main control board distributes the software version to each specified controlled list. The board can be run concurrently with multiple software versions and multiple controlled boards, and the software version is quickly downloaded without interrupting the service. Preferably, when the software version is distributed to each controlled board, the software version is simultaneously Save to the persistent storage of the controlled board to ensure that the software version will not be lost after the power is turned off. In step S202, the main control board activates the software version; in step S203, each controlled board is reset, and when the power is reset, the software version is loaded. When the controlled board is powered on, the software version saved in the memory is loaded. In the third embodiment, each controlled board loads the received software version upon power-on reset or when receiving a software change notification. When loading the software version, first determine whether the software version in the memory is the same as the software version activated on the main control board. If they are inconsistent, re-request the activated software version from the main control board and load the software version. This allows each loaded software version to be an active software version. The process of loading software versions of each controlled board in detail is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIG. 3, a flowchart of a method for loading a software version according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention includes: Step S301: A software version is downloaded from a main control board, and the software version is distributed to each controlled board; Step S302 The main control board activates the software version on the control board. When activated, the software change notification can be sent to each controlled board. Step S303: The software version change notification or the controlled board is received during the controlled board operation. Step S304: The controlled board determines whether the software version in the memory is consistent with the software version activated by the main control board, if yes, step S306 is performed, and if no, step S305 is performed; step S305, the controlled board Obtaining the activated software version from the main control board and saving it to the memory, and continuing to step S306; Step S306, the controlled board determines whether the software version in the memory is consistent with the software version running by itself, and if so, directly Ending the process, if no, executing step S307; wherein, when executing, step S306 may not be performed, then after steps S304 and S305, directly OK step S307, the same can be done to load the software version of the present invention. The step S306 determines the execution of the step, so that when the running version and the stored version are consistent, reloading is avoided, and the operation flow is reduced. In step S307, the controlled board determines whether the loading of the software version needs to reset the controlled board according to the service status. If yes, step S308 is performed. If no, step S309 is performed; determining whether the receiving needs to be reset according to the service status. Control the board, that is, if the current number of services is large, you can choose to reset the load, that is, go to step S308. When the current number of services is small, you can choose to load directly, that is, go to step S309. When loading, select whether to load directly or Load after reset, you can choose as needed. When selecting, try to minimize the impact on the board business during the loading process. Step S308, the controlled board performs the board reset, and returns to the power-on operation in step S303. Of course, when executing, steps S307 and S308 may not be performed, and the process of loading the software version in step S309 is directly performed after step S306. . In step S307, according to the business situation The step of judging, and the re-powering operation when the reset is required, enables the controlled board to flexibly select the loading mode according to the current service situation, that is, when the current service is large, the reset loading can be selected, and the current service situation is compared. When it is small, it can be loaded directly. Step S309: The controlled board directly loads the software version. Step S310: The controlled board determines whether the software version is successfully loaded. If yes, the process ends directly. If no, step S311 is performed; Step S311, the controlled list The board notifies the main control board to change the activated software version 4爹 to the software version before the activation, and re-requests the previous software version from the main control board and loads it. When the controlled board determines that the software version is unsuccessful, the master board needs to be notified. The master board replaces the activation flag on the software version with the back-off flag and sets the activation on the software version before the activation. Mark, ie reactivate the previous software version. Preferably, in step S311, after the software version activated on the main control board is modified, the controlled boards are reset, and the process of returning the software version on the controlled board in steps S303-S311 is returned. This ensures that the software version activated on the main control board and the software version saved on the controlled board are the same. After the software version is obtained, the master board is distributed to each controlled board in advance, and then activated, which prevents the controlled boards from being reset to power after being powered on. The process of requesting the software version of the board speeds up the software download time of the controlled board and reduces the power-on interruption time of the base station controller. When the software version is activated, the master board sends a software change notification to the controlled board. After receiving the notification, the controlled board loads the software version. It can ensure that the software version is valid immediately after it is activated, which ensures the consistency between the running version and the active version of the base station controller. Preferably, when the software version is loaded, each controlled board needs to compare whether the software version in the memory and the activated software version are consistent, and further determine that the loaded version is the activated version. Preferably, when loading, it is necessary to determine whether the running version and the version in the memory are consistent, so as to avoid repeated loading and save load time. The embodiment of the present invention further provides a base station controller, as shown in FIG. 4, including: a main control board 41, configured to download a software version, distribute the software version to each controlled board, and activate the main control list. The software version on the board; a plurality of controlled boards 42 for loading the software version. Preferably, the master control board 4 1 also sends a software change notification to each controlled board 42 when the software version is activated thereon, and the controlled board 42 is specifically configured to receive the notification. The software version is loaded; or the controlled board 4 2 is specifically used to load the software version when the reset is powered on. It is apparent that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that the present invention cover the modifications and the modifications of the invention
