Method of updating configuration file for embedded media terminal adapter

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for refreshing the adapter distribution document of embedded media terminal, which comprises: setting the preset condition of refreshed distribution document of EMTA (embedded media terminal adapter; EMTA actively attains said preset condition; said EMTA automatically recovers when meeting said preset condition to refresh the distribution document. In said invention, the distribution document can automatically upgrade in batch, which can avoid the high error possibility caused by manual interference and time waste. The invention can avid the interruption of user service and unnecessary recovery operation of EMTA. The invention can improve the automatic management degree, reduce the network maintenance cost, and improve the stability of communication system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network communication, in particular to a method for updating configuration files of embedded media terminal adapters. Background technique [0002] EMTA (Embedded Media Terminal Adapter) is a network communication device based on cable TV network. EMTA can provide users with high-speed data and voice access services through the public network or private network in the existing cable TV network. Applied to residential quarters, commercial office buildings, distance learning, etc. [0003] EMTA is based on the DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications, cable transmission data service interface specification) / EuroDOCSIS (European DataOver Cable Service Interface Specifications, European cable transmission data service interface specification) and PacketCable (packet cable) standards developed by CableLabs. of. [0004] At present, EMTA mainly provides users with voice services based on IP n...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Since it is difficult to know the real-time status of the user from the CMTS management device, such as whether the user is surfing the Internet or making a phone call, when this method is used to modify the configuration file of the EMTA, the user service will be interrupted, and the user satisfaction will be reduced. Cause user complaints, and when there are a large number of EMTAs, issuing a reset command to each EMTA is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and is prone to errors

[0011] In summary, the existing methods for updating EMTA configuration data require human intervention, and the degree of automatic management of EMTA is low, especially when there are a large number of EMTAs and the EMTA configuration data needs to be modified in batches, there is a high probability of error, time-consuming and laborious, Disadvantages such as decreased user satisfaction result in high network maintenance costs and poor communication system reliability
