Embodiment Construction

[0014] figure 1 Shown is a functional block diagram of the node device 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention. In this implementation manner, the node device may be a network device such as a switch or a router. The node device includes a detection module 102 , a judging module 104 , a notification module 106 , a receiving module 108 and an upgrading module 110 .

[0015] The detection module 102 detects the traffic attribute of the data flow passing through the node device 10 .

[0016] In an embodiment, the node device presets a threshold, and sets a priority for different flows. The traffic attributes include instant attributes. When the priority corresponding to the quantity flow is higher than the threshold, the detection module 102 determines that the traffic attribute of the data flow has immediacy.

[0017] In another embodiment, the node device presets a threshold, and sets an importance level for different traffic, and the traffic attribute inclu...

Abstract

The invention provides a software upgrading method for node equipment. The method is applied to network node equipment. The method comprises the steps of detecting a flow property of a data stream which flows through the node equipment; according to the flow property, judging whether the node equipment is allowed to perform the software upgrading operation or not; when the node equipment is allowed to carry out the software upgrading operation, executing the software upgrading operation. The embodiment of the invention further discloses node equipment. By means of the node equipment and the software upgrading method for the node equipment, the problem of line interruption caused by software upgrading can be avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiment of the present invention relates to a method and a device for upgrading node equipment software. Background technique [0002] Due to the low cost and high efficiency of embedded systems, more and more network devices use embedded systems, that is, use firmware to perform operations. In order to better improve the functions of network devices, enhance stability, and patch system vulnerabilities, it is necessary to frequently update the firmware. In order to facilitate the management of the wireless mesh network, most of the devices in the network are scheduled to perform automatic firmware upgrades at the same time interval. The general traditional firmware upgrade procedure is to download the new version of the firmware to the device, and then reboot to reset the device status and re-establish the connection. [0003] Usually, the node devices in the network will be restarted immediately to complete the software upgrade and update wor...
