Problems solved by technology

If the software running on the network elements needs to be upgraded for some reason, the general method is to upgrade each network element separately through the host computer of the network management 102. This method is time-consuming and laborious, especially when many network elements are managed. Moreover, some network element software may not be upgraded due to omissions

Embodiment Construction

[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described here are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] figure 2 Flowchart of the software upgrading method according to the present invention. Such as figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0028] Step S202, after any network element in the network receives the upgrade software from the sender, it upgrades its own software of the network element, and updates the software information table of the network element;

[0029] Step S204, searching for adjacent network elements adjacent to the network element that need to upgrade software; and

[0030] Step S206, sending the upgrade software to the found neighboring network elements that need to be upgraded.

Abstract

The present invention provides a software upgrade method and device for realizing software upgrade of network elements, a network element using the software upgrade method and a network element with the software upgrade device, wherein the method includes the following steps: After any one of the network elements receives the upgrade software from the sender, it upgrades its own software of the network element, and updates the software information table of the network element; finds the adjacent network elements that need to upgrade the software adjacent to the network element; And send the upgrade software to the found adjacent network elements that need to be upgraded. Therefore, through the present invention, the workload is reduced, the possibility of omissions during network element software upgrade is reduced, and the pressure brought by the traditional upgrade method on network communication is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a software upgrading method and device for realizing software upgrading of network elements, a network element using the software upgrading method, and a network element having the software upgrading device. Background technique [0002] Such as figure 1 As shown, a diagram of a typical equipment monitoring system is provided. Wherein, the device monitoring system usually consists of a monitoring device (network management) 102 and a monitored device (network element) 104 ( figure 1 in 104a, 104b, 104c, 104d, and 104e). [0003] Sometimes the network elements managed by the network manager 102 are few, but sometimes there are many, even hundreds or even thousands. If the software running on the network elements needs to be upgraded for some reason, the general method is to upgrade each network element separately through the host computer of the network management 102. This method is time-consuming and laborious, especially i...
