Method of integrating lower network management function in higher network management

Abstract

A method for integrating lower-level network management functions in the upper-level network management, making the functional modules on the lower-level network management client into individual plug-ins and deploying them on the upper-level network management client; making the plug-ins included in each independent space, Each independent space uses an independent class loader to load each plug-in in the space into the Java process; open the function management interface of the configuration plug-in; manage the function management interface of the plug-in; process the sending command call request Afterwards, it is forwarded to the lower-level network management server through the upper-level network management server. The present invention can support simultaneous operation of different versions of lower-level network management function parts on the upper-level network management, realize centralized operation and maintenance on the upper-level network management, and the realization of the functions of the lower-level network management by the upper-level network management does not need to increase the development workload.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a management method of network equipment, in particular to a method for integrating lower-level network management functions in upper-level network management. Background technique [0002] Telecommunications network management technology is a complex distributed system, and Java technology, especially J2EE, has also been widely used in telecommunications network management. In order to manage the devices of the whole network, the method of hierarchical management of the network management is generally adopted: the lower-level network management (OMM) directly manages the network elements, and completes the single-point management of the network elements; the upper-level network management (EMS) realizes the centralized management of each lower-level network management , see attached figure 1 , one upper-level network manager manages three lower-level network managers, so that the upper-level network management client can cent...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] 1. If the functions on the lower-level network management are newly developed on the upper-level network management, because it needs to adapt to different types of lower-level network management, the development workload is extremely huge, and with the upgrading of the lower-level network management and the enhancement of functions, new development on the upper-level network management is also required. The code also writes and modifies new codes along with the lower-level network management, resulting in too tight coupling between the upper-level network management and lower-level network management versions

The main problem is that the development cycle is long, the maintenance cost is high, and it is far from being able to adapt to the rapid market launch required by operators.

[0010] 2. If the upper-level network management client starts an independent client process for each lower-level network management to be connected, each independent process needs to log in, initialize, etc., the startup speed is slow, and users need to be in different processes Switching between different operation interfaces greatly reduces user experience; moreover, the operation interface of each client process is independent, which is contrary to the fundamental goal of the upper-level network management, which is to conduct centralized operation, maintenance and management; in addition, the upper-lower network management system The IP channel between them is specially controlled, and there can only be a dedicated channel between the upper and lower servers. However, the upper-level client machines often cannot directly communicate with the lower-level network management server, so it is unacceptable in engineering deployment.
