Method, device and system for implementing compatibility of network management device and equipment veneer

Abstract

The invention discloses a method, a device and a system for implementing compatibility of a network management device and an equipment veneer for improving the compatibility of a system and improving the availability of equipment. The method comprises that: when determining that software or / and hardware running environment is changed, the network management device generates theory compatible message; the network management device transmits the theory compatible message to the local administered equipment veneer, and receives the resolved message returned by the equipment veneer; and when acquiring that the equipment veneer accurately resolves the received theory compatible message according to the resolved message, the network management device determines the compatibility of the network management device and the equipment veneer. Therefore, the method can avoid the trouble brought by manually upgrading (degrading) the network management software or updating the program of the equipment veneer when the compatibility problem occurs every time, reduces the risk, improves the compatibility of the system, and improves the availability of the equipment. The invention also discloses the network management device and the system for implementing the compatibility of the network management device and the equipment veneer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical communication, in particular to a method, device and system for realizing compatibility between a network management device and a single board of equipment. Background technique [0002] In the field of optical communication, during the operation and maintenance of transmission equipment, affected by various factors such as equipment single board failure, it is often necessary to replace the equipment single board, and sometimes the replaced equipment single board is not compatible with the currently running network management software , it is necessary for the user to replace the temporary procedure of the device board. [0003] At the same time, after upgrading the network management software, there will also be a problem of incompatibility with some equipment boards. Therefore, the network management software needs to return the version before the upgrade and search for a new upgrade. [0004] With the ...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At the same time, after upgrading the network management software, there will also be a problem of incompatibility with some equipment boards. It is necessary to return the network management software to the version before the upgrade and search for a new upgrade.

[0004] With the development of communication technology, the equipment networking mode is becoming more and more flexible and complex. If an incompatibility problem occurs during equipment operation and maintenance, it is necessary to manually upgrade (downgrade) the network management software or update the program of the equipment board. It is more troublesome, prone to problems, reducing customer satisfaction, and bringing certain risks. Due to compatibility issues, the equipment cannot be used normally and the availability of the equipment is reduced.
