Method, association server and system for realizing association of equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a method, an association server and a system for realizing association of equipment. The method comprises the following steps that: the association server receives an association request transmitted by an association initiating user through a piece of association initiating equipment, the association request comprises user identity information, identity information of equipment to be associated and association verification code information; and the association server judges whether the equipment identity information and the association verification code information are consistent with a previously stored equipment identity and previously stored association verification code information, if the equipment identity information and the association verification code information are consistent with the previously stored equipment identity and the previously stored association verification code information, the association server realizes the association between the association initiating user and the equipment to be associated as well as the association between the equipment to be associated and other equipment associated by the association initiating user. Due to the adoption of the method, the association server and the system, the association among different pieces of equipment can be realized, the user unnecessarily performs the association configuration between every two pieces of equipment to realize the association of multiple pieces of equipment, the operation process is simple, the association time of the equipment is shortened, and the association efficiency of the equipment is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of network communication, and more specifically relates to a method for realizing device association, an association server and a system. Background technique [0002] Device collaboration service is an activity to realize intelligent interconnection and service invocation between devices through a series of communication protocols. IGRS (Intelligent Grouping and Resource Sharing, Information Equipment Resource Sharing Collaborative Service) protocol is a device collaborative service communication protocol, which can also be referred to as IGRS protocol for short. Through the IGRS protocol, devices on the same LAN can discover the existence of each other, browse each other to establish inter-device pipelines, discover the services provided by each other, establish device groups and sessions, and make service calls. For example, an IGRS media player using the IGRS protocol can automatically discover another IG...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the existing technical solutions can only realize the association between two devices. In order to realize the association between multiple devices, the user needs to perform an association operation for each device pair first. For example, in order to realize the device a, b, For the association between two devices, the user needs to configure device a and device b, device b and device c, device a and device c respectively, so as to realize the association between the two, so as to establish the relationship between devices a, b and c. associate

When there are many devices that need to be associated, the user's configuration process is very complicated, and this method of establishing an association relationship is very inefficient
