Method and system for accessing network management of large-scale remote zero-configuration equipment

Abstract

A method and system for connecting a large-scale remote zero-configuration device to a network management, involving the field of Ethernet switching and transmission, the method comprising: configuring a zero-configuration device as a proxy server on a network management server, and using other zero-configuration devices as clients; The link layer discovery protocol service distribution protocol establishes the management channel between the proxy server and the next-level client, and also establishes the management channel between the connected clients step by step through the service distribution protocol; the proxy server and each client are respectively in In the management channel, the neighbor information is obtained through the private LLDP link layer discovery protocol; the network management server collects the neighbor information of the entire network through the proxy server, forms a network topology map, and manages the selected client according to the network topology map. The zero-configuration device connected in the present invention does not need manual participation in pre-configuration or on-site configuration, which saves manpower and improves configuration efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of Ethernet switching and transmission, in particular to a method and system for connecting large-scale remote zero-configuration equipment to a network management system. Background technique [0002] During the project commissioning process, the access devices at the end of the network are characterized by a large number and scattered locations. According to the previous project opening methods, there are two options: [0003] The first is that the access device needs to be pre-configured. According to the pre-planned plan, the service and IP are configured for the access device, and then the access device is placed in a designated location. This solution needs to pre-configure each remote access device and then place it in a designated location. Once the number of access devices is large, it will be time-consuming and manpower-consuming, and error-prone. [0004] The second is that engineering personnel go to the...

This solution needs to pre-configure each remote access device, and then put it in a designated location. Once the number of access devices is large, it will be time-consuming and manpower-consuming, and error-prone

[0004] The second is that engineering personnel go to the site to open according to the pre-planning. The remote access devices are often scattered and far away, which also wastes a lot of manpower and time.
