Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method, equipment and an upgrading engine unit for upgrading telecommunication equipment in the communication field. Background technique

[0002] In the existing communication field, the upgrading of telecommunication equipment is to provide users with better, safer and more stable services. Therefore, in order to maintain and optimize communication networks and improve service quality, operators and manufacturers often need to upgrade various types of telecommunication equipment such as switches, routers, media gateways, and integrated access equipment to meet current or future telecommunication requirements. business needs.

[0003] However, the equipment to be upgraded is usually in the official operating state, so it is required to retain the necessary business data on the upgraded equipment after the upgrade, and the service cannot be interrupted due to the upgrade. At the same...

Embodiment Construction

[0032] The technical solution of the embodiment of the method for upgrading telecommunication equipment provided by the present invention is to perform equipment upgrading in units of network element instances, and the network element (Management Element) is a management unit of equipment in a telecommunication network. There are multiple workspaces in an NE, and all data related to version upgrades are stored in the workspace. The workspace where the NE instance runs is the running zone, that is, the original version workspace, and other workspaces are non-running zones. You can use one of the non-running areas to upgrade the version, which is the new version of the work area. The version upgrade is performed on the temporary work area. After the upgrade is completed, it is copied to the new version of the work area, and then the network element instance is switched to the new version of the work area. The workspace of the new version is the new running zone, and the upgrade i...
