Embodiment 1

[0042] This embodiment firstly provides a kind of white-box switch configuration management system, and described configuration management system comprises interface unit, conversion connection unit and storage unit, and interface unit is API Server (Application Programming Interface, application programming interface) server in this embodiment, uses For connecting the external configuration system, the external configuration system is used to provide configuration data to the white box switch; the conversion connection unit is an API GW (API Gateway) gateway, which is used to receive and convert the configuration data sent by the interface unit, and to receive the configuration data Filter aggregation; the storage unit is a DB (database), which is used to store the configuration data sent by the interface unit, and send the received configuration data to each business module.

[0043] API Server is a unified entry component for external devices to interact with the configurati...

Embodiment 2

[0052] In this embodiment, on the basis of the configuration management system and the switch network operating system described in Embodiment 1, the configuration management method of the white box switch is further described. The configuration management system runs a unified configuration management process as follows: figure 2 shown, including the following steps:

[0053] Step S1: The user authenticates and logs in on the front-end WEB page, and configures according to business requirements after logging in;

[0054] The user logs in to the configuration system through the front-end WEB page, first performs user authentication and authentication processing, and after the login is completed, performs service configuration processing based on objects. Traditional configuration management only provides CLI configuration commands. For users, they need to be familiar with complex CLI configuration commands. In addition to the CLI configuration management methods supported by ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a white-box switch unified configuration management system and method and a network operating system, and belongs to the technical field of communication. In order to solve the problems that in the prior art, command line interface configuration used by a white-box switch is not easy to expand, user operation is complex and the like, the white-box switch comprises an interface unit, a conversion connection unit and a storage unit, the interface unit is used for being connected with an external configuration system, and the external configuration system is used for providing configuration data for the white-box switch; the conversion connection unit is used for receiving and converting the configuration data sent by the interface unit and filtering and aggregating the received configuration data; and the storage unit is used for storing the configuration data sent by the interface unit and sending the received configuration data to each service module. According to the invention, various input modes are supported, the decoupling and deployment capabilities among multiple modules are improved, the development efficiency of switch configuration services is improved, and accurate perception of network services and rapid deployment of topologies are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communication, and more specifically, to a white box switch unified configuration management system, method and network operating system. Background technique [0002] The switch is used to forward electrical signals and provide an exclusive electrical signal path for any two network nodes connected to the switch. The white box switch decouples the switch hardware and software. Users can only buy the switch hardware, and then match the software as needed, just like a compatible machine in a PC. In addition to more flexible software configuration, the biggest advantage of white box switches is that they can reduce networking costs and increase network automation, programmability, and flexibility. On the network operating system of white box switches, the open source SONIC is the future development direction, which will greatly simplify and transform our network. [0003] With the development of t...
