[0040] In the first embodiment of the present invention, a method for upgrading a network element through a network management system, such as figure 2 shown, including the following specific steps:

[0041] Step S101, the user selects the network element to be upgraded and the version number to be upgraded on the human-computer interaction interface on the network management side.

[0042] Step S102, the network manager judges whether the version number selected by the user to upgrade is the same as the current version number of the network element to be upgraded, if yes, execute step S107, otherwise execute step S103.

[0043] Step S103, the network manager compares the configuration file corresponding to the version number selected by the user to upgrade with the configuration file corresponding to the current version number of the network element to be upgraded, and obtains a configuration data difference list;

[0044] Step S104, the network management determines the ch...

[0048] In the second embodiment of the present invention, the method described in this embodiment is roughly the same as that in the first embodiment, the difference is that the method for upgrading network elements through the network management introduced in this embodiment also includes: performing data backup and rollback on the network management database process, such as image 3 As shown, the method includes the following specific steps:

[0049] Step S201, the user selects the network element to be upgraded and the version number to be upgraded on the human-computer interaction interface on the network management side.

[0050] Step S202, the network manager judges whether the version number selected by the user to upgrade is the same as the current version number of the network element to be upgraded, if yes, execute step S208, otherwise execute step S203.

[0051] In step S203, the network manager compares the configuration file corresponding to the version number s...

[0058] The third embodiment of the present invention corresponds to the method described in the first embodiment, a device for upgrading network elements through a network management system, such as Figure 4 shown, including the following components:

[0059] 1) The network management database update module, located in the network management, is used to update the network management database according to the upgraded version number after the user selects the network element to be upgraded and the upgraded version number. Network management database update module, including:

[0060] The version configuration comparison submodule is used to compare the configuration file corresponding to the version number selected by the user to upgrade with the configuration file corresponding to the current version number of the upgraded network element, and obtain a configuration data difference list;

[0061] The network management database update submodule is used to update the network ...

Abstract

Disclosed are a method and device for updating a network element through network management. According to a version number selected by a user, network management automatically updates a network management database, and delivers configuration to a network element directly through a data downloading function of the network management. The present invention not only provides a one-key operation for the user, which can be executed in batches, has a simple flow, and is less error prone, but also migrates the processing flow to the network management, thereby greatly reducing the processing procedure and load of the network element. The present invention may further support degrading, batch upgrading, and upgrading of the same kind of devices with different rates.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communications, in particular to a method and device for upgrading network elements through a network management system. Background technique [0002] In the field of communication, any device has to upgrade its software version many times in its life cycle to realize more and more functions and achieve better and better results. Software version upgrade is referred to as version upgrade. Not only will a large number of equipment version upgrades be carried out in engineering, but also equipment versions are often upgraded in environments such as laboratories. [0003] The networking of the network management system is as follows: figure 1 As shown, the equipment in the network management system is called a network element. In the process of upgrading the version of the network element, if manual upgrade is used, quite a few network elements need to be upgraded one by one, and the configuration of each ...
