Method and device for restoring configuration information of network equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for restoring configuration information of a network device, comprising: after receiving a command for restoring configuration information, the network device automatically reads a saved log file; judging whether the record of the log file contains a save command, and if so, from The save command starts to search for a configuration command, otherwise, search for a configuration command from the starting position of the log file; use the found configuration command to generate a configuration file, and restore the configuration information of the network device. The invention makes full use of the characteristics of log files recording configuration commands, and can restore configurations lost due to untimely storage of network equipment. Corresponding to the above method, the present invention also provides a device for restoring configuration information of network equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network management, in particular to a method and device for restoring configuration information of network equipment. Background technique [0002] With the increasing popularity of network equipment, the staff engaged in the network industry have higher and higher requirements for the ease of use of network equipment. [0003] The professional quality of network equipment operators is uneven, and there are often omissions in the management of network equipment. For example, in order to meet certain work requirements, a new device is required by the network management, and the network device operation engineer performs corresponding configuration, but does not save (save), and hand over the network device to the current network management. The network management did not discover this potential danger. After a long period of trouble-free operation, the network equipment was disconnected for a period of t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

For example, in order to meet certain work requirements, a new device is required by the network management, and the network device operation engineer performs corresponding configuration, but does not save (save), and hand over the network device to the current network management. The network management did not discover this potential danger. After a long period of trouble-free operation, the network equipment was disconnected for a period of time due to other reasons. When the equipment restarted, it returned to the default configuration, and the network was paralyzed because there was no corresponding configuration backup. , at this point, you need to restore the configuration before the network device restarts

[0004] There are many similar application environments. For example, the network equipment is running well, and the current configuration file has been saved by the save operation. The corresponding configuration needs to be modified because the network needs to be transformed. When the network operation engineer modifies the device configuration, he forgets to save it. The latest configuration, due to other reasons, the device restarts and restores to the configuration before the network transformation. The newly added configuration is lost and the network cannot run normally. At this time, it needs to restore the configuration before the network device restarts.
