 Before a node in the system starts, it needs to load some necessary operations and application software for subsequent work. Therefore, the node to be loaded (the node that has not yet loaded the software) can first send a software loading request to the software loading control center device to Request to load the software. After the software loading control center device receives the software loading request sent by the node to be loaded, the feature matching may be performed in the configuration database according to some characteristic information of the node to be loaded. The configuration database may include information for identifying which category the node to be loaded belongs to, such as a feature code, and the nodes generally belonging to the same category may load the same software. Some of the nodes in the same category have already completed the software loading process, so they can provide the required software to be loaded for nodes that have not yet been loaded with software. The software loading control center device can query the configuration database to find multiple nodes of the software to be loaded provided for the node to be loaded, and select one of them as the target node to provide the to-be-loaded node with the software to be loaded, and the subsequent to-be-loaded node can and the target. The node directly communicates to obtain the software to be loaded, and completes the software loading.

Specifically, the software loading control center device may obtain hardware information and physical location information of the node to be loaded according to the software loading request, and query the configuration database to obtain the IP address and the information of the software to be loaded allocated to the node to be loaded. For example, software version information and description information, and the like, and a signature corresponding to the node to be loaded. The software loading control center device obtains a node list according to the feature code, and the node list includes a plurality of candidate nodes capable of providing the to-be-loaded node with the software to be loaded, and each candidate node has the same feature code as the node to be loaded. After getting the list of nodes, The software loading control center device may select one of the plurality of candidate nodes as the target node according to a preset rule to provide the to-be-loaded node with the software to be loaded.

In this embodiment, it can be visually referred to as the "infection source". " . Correspondingly, nodes that have not yet been loaded by software can be called "uninfected nodes", such as Node (X+1), ..., Node (X+Y). Each uninfected node is located in the "uninfected node domain".

 Step b: The software loading control center device queries the configuration database according to the feature information of the node to be loaded, performs feature matching, and obtains a collection of infection sources, that is, a node list;

Step c, the software loading control center device according to the load level of each infectious source and the section to be loaded The transmission distance of the point, a suitable infection source node is selected from the collection of the infection source, as the loading service provider of the node to be loaded, that is, the target node, and the target node selected in the figure is Node2;

 Step d: The software loading control center device notifies the preferred source node Node2 to the node to be loaded Node (X+1);

 Step e, the node to be loaded Node (X+1) downloads the corresponding version of the device software from the infection source node, and completes loading;

 Step f: After the node (X+1) to be loaded is started, the process will be called that the node is infected;

 Step g: The node Node (X+1) registers with the software loading control center device to become a new infection source node, which is uniformly managed by the software loading control center device.

 It should be noted that the nodes to be loaded that are not infected with the node domain can concurrently perform the software loading process. The software load server in the figure can be centralized or distributed multiple servers.
