Embodiment Construction

[0047] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described below are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0048]The present invention centralizes the northbound interfaces of multiple communication protocols of multiple EMS network management systems into the lower level northbound interface of the unified communication protocol to connect with the upper level NM, and adds a layer of centralized northbound interface system between the upper level NMS and the lower level EMS northbound interface. Centralize the northbound interface system to complete the adaptation of communication protocols, data format, message format, adaptation and conversion of southbound downlink operations, and NMS docking protocol management. Specifically, the lower-level EMS northbound...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device supporting the butt joint of centralized northbound interfaces, and relates to the technical field of network communication. The method comprises the following steps: setting a centralized northbound interface system between a low-stage EMS northbound interface and a high-stage NMS, and receiving messages or data files reported by the low-stage EMS northbound interface; carrying out the format conversion of the received messages or data files through the centralized northbound interface system, and obtaining the messages or data files at a reference format; converting the obtained messages or data files at the reference format into the messages or data files at a format needed by the high-stage NMS through the centralized northbound interface system according to the format of a communication protocol for the butt joint with the high-stage NMS, and reporting the messages or data files at the format needed by the high-stage NMS to the high-stage NMS. The method and device reduce the complexity that an NMS network management system manages EMS northbound interfaces and the maintenance workload of all EMS northbound interfaces under the condition of guaranteeing the integrity and accuracy of data reported by the EMS northbound interfaces.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network communication, in particular to a method and device for supporting centralized northbound interface docking. Background technique [0002] At present, operators usually operate networks of multiple standards at the same time. Even for networks of the same standard, they usually purchase equipment from multiple equipment vendors. Optimizing O&M is a tricky problem. The current common solution is to develop or purchase a third-party NMS (Network Management System, Network Management System), access and manage EMS (Element Management System, Network Element Management System) of each equipment manufacturer, and the interface between NMS and EMS is the northbound interface. Among them, the NMS is the upper-level network management system used by the operator to take over the EMS of multiple equipment vendors, and the EMS is the lower-level network management system of the equipment vendor, providing ...
