Method, eoc equipment and system for remote authentication of eoc terminal

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for remotely authenticating an EoC terminal, and an EoC apparatus and system. The method comprises: upon detecting that an EoC terminal is on line for the first time, an EoC head end generating an authentication request table; sending to a simple network management protocol server alarm information for indicating that the EoC terminal is on line for the first time; when the simple network management protocol server determines, according to the alarm information, that the EoC terminal is legal, the EoC head end receiving feedback information indicating that the simple network management protocol server sets the authentication request table to a legal permission state; and the EoC head end performing an enabling operation on the EoC terminal according to the feedback information. In the present invention, the whole authentication process does not require intervention operations of an administrator, thereby completely automatically authenticating each EoC terminal by an EoC head end.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to logic application network technology, in particular to a method for remote authentication of EoC terminals, EoC equipment and a system. Background technique [0002] Apply Ethernet over Coax (EoC, Ethernet over Coax) technology, that is, Ethernet data is transmitted through a coaxial cable, and TV signals and broadband network signals are simultaneously transmitted on a coaxial cable, and coaxial broadband access audio and video (Audio Video ) technology process, the international standard proposed by the HomePlug Power Line Technology Alliance is adopted. Each device using this technology should include a CM function for discovering surrounding devices using the same technology and forming a logical application network (AVLN, AV Logical Network). In an AVLN topology network, there is one and only one device as the master device (CCo, Central Coordinator), and the master device is responsible for managing and coordinating othe...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method, EoC equipment and system for remote authentication of EoC terminals, which are used to solve the problem of knowing exactly which EoC headend each EoC terminal is connected to in the prior art. This will lead to the defect of low work efficiency when the network scale is large or the network is relatively complex.
