File-based configuration rollback system and configuration rollback method

Abstract

The invention relates to a network equipment management technology, and discloses a file-based configuration rollback method, which solves the problems of complexity in the realization of configuration rollback, rollback incompleteness and incapability of supporting two-way rolling in the prior art. Key points of the technical scheme can be summarized as that: in the process of configuring managed equipment, a simple network management protocol (SNMP) network management workstation counts configuration operations, and transmits a rollback point setting command comprising a rollback point identifier (ID) to the managed equipment when the times of the configuration operations reaches a certain set value; the managed equipment backs a currently configured file up and sets the rollback point ID; when a rollback operation is required, the SNMP network management workstation transmits a rollback command comprising the rollback point ID to the managed equipment; and the managed equipment finds and executes a corresponding configuration file according to the rollback point ID. In addition, the invention discloses a file-based configuration rollback system. The system and the method are applied to the conditions of requiring rollback if a configuration error occurs when the SNMP network management workstation configures the managed equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to network equipment management technology, in particular to a system and method for performing configuration rollback when a network management workstation manages managed equipment through SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol, Simple Network Management Protocol). Background technique [0002] At present, most network products are managed and configured through the SNMP protocol; SNMP is a request / response protocol using a polling mechanism, that is, the network management program sends management commands to the SNMP agent module of the managed device, and the SNMP agent module receives the commands And execute the command, and then send a response to the network management program; on the other hand, the SNMP agent module continuously monitors the node equipment where it is located, and immediately sends an alarm to the network management program actively once some abnormal events occur. When the managed device receives the...
