Management method, management device and management system in distributed multi-point conference system

Abstract

The invention provides a management method in a distributed multi-point conference system including steps of obtaining topology relation of a multi-point control equipment in the distributed multi-point conference system and carrying out management operation according to the obtained topology relation, wherein the topology relation of the multi-point control equipment is used for expressing communication connection relation between the multi-point control equipment. The invention also provides a management device in the distributed multi-point conference system, the multi-point control equipment and a distributed multi-point conference system. In the invention, each multi-point control equipment obtaining the topology relation of the multi-point control equipment carries out management according to the topology relation, administrator does not need to remember title or IP address of each multi-point control equipment and carry out cascade connection for the multi-point control equipment by hand, and the administrator can manage all the multi-point control equipment on the topology through topology relation as long as the administrator has enough authority. So that, the requirement to the administrator is not high, and management realization is relatively simple.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a distributed multipoint conference system, in particular to management technology in the distributed multipoint conference system. Background technique [0002] Video and / or audio multipoint conferencing is an increasingly important form of communication. A typical distributed multipoint conference system includes a multipoint control device (for example: a multipoint control unit (MCU, MultipointControl Unit), a media resource server (MRS, Media Resource Server)), a multimedia terminal (hereinafter referred to as a terminal) and a communication network . A multi-point control device can handle calls sent by multiple terminals through the communication network, and the multi-point control device forms a point-to-point connection with the terminals to coordinate and establish a multi-point conference. The terminal can be a video terminal, an audio terminal, or a terminal combining audio and video. The communication network i...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

It can be seen that the management scheme in the existing distributed multi-point conference system not only has relatively high requirements for administrators, but also has relatively complicated implementation of management.
