Problems solved by technology

The traditional device TOPO relationship and its presentation are generally done manually, which is not suitable for frequent changes of network equipment. The TOPO relationship often lags behind the existing network equipment, which will affect the overall monitoring of the network and fault location by network maintenance engineers.

Embodiment 1

[0021] The steps of using LLDP to discover network relationships and automatically implement hierarchical TOPO display methods are as follows:

[0022] 1) First, automatically discover the network devices of each subnet through the front-end collector, and configure the busy and idle time for the discovered devices;

[0023] 2) Select idle time, process all devices in a loop, and enable LLDP for the device; different devices have different enabling methods, such as PTN and other IP devices can be directly enabled through telnet / ssh commands, while wireless network BTS The device needs to execute the MML command through the EMS to enable LLDP.

[0024] 3) After the device enables LLDP, all devices are processed in a loop, and the neighbor information on each port found on the device is collected; for IP devices such as PTN, neighbor information can be obtained directly through the SNMP protocol, and for wireless network BTS devices, EMS is required. Execute the MML command, an...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for performing network relationship discovery and automatically realizing layered TOPO display by means of LLDP. The method comprises the following steps of 1), configuring busy time and idle time for discovered equipment; 2) selecting the idle time, and starting LLDP enabling on the equipment; 3) acquiring neighboring information on each port which is discovered on the equipment; 4) performing LLDP disenabling on the equipment for ensuring high-efficiency operation of the equipment; 5) performing duplicate elimination and combination on connecting relations on ports of the equipment, obtaining connecting relation among the equipment and the duplicate number of connections, generating a logical relation among the equipment; and 6) traversing and analyzing the whole logical TOPO, automatically combining the independent parts, thereby displaying a network structure in a layered manner. The method of the invention has advantages of automatically finding equipment and connecting relationship and automatically performing TOPO presentation in the layered manner; selecting the idle time of the equipment for performing automatic discovery operation, utilizing equipment in maximal efficiency, quickly finding network design problems, improving network planning capability, and supplying a reasonable plan for capacity expanding and upgrading.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network management systems, in particular to a method for discovering network relations by using LLDP and automatically realizing layered TOPO display. Background technique [0002] In the network equipment management system, in order to improve the network operation level and service quality, end-to-end monitoring network equipment relationship is required to provide real-time monitoring, analysis and troubleshooting capabilities. When a device failure occurs, it is necessary to visually present and locate the device and its neighbors on the TOPO map, and then through a series of correlation, analysis, and summary processing, further analyze the affected devices in depth and handle the fault. This is a business scenario that equipment operation is very concerned about and urgent. The most basic solution to this type of problem is to display the logical relationship between the network and the network on...
