Problems solved by technology

However, there is a requirement for the operator to use the hardware dialing or writing method, and the dialing code cannot be dialed incorrectly. If the dialing is wrong, it will cause serious problems of communication blocking or errors; and using this technical solution, dialing There must also be a strict match between the code and the connection. If the match is not correct, it will also affect other configurations of the system.

Embodiment 1

[0081] In this embodiment, the method of the present invention is specifically described by taking the central frame SCU directly connected to the BAM in the communication network system as an example. figure 2 It is a schematic flow chart of the method of this embodiment, as shown in the figure, the method includes the following steps:

[0082] Step S201: The central box SCU is started.

[0083] Start the central frame SCU, only open the 0th group network port of the panel, which belongs to the default network port, that is, VLANID=1, and set all non-virtual local area network flags (VLAN TAG, referred to as TAG) message or TAG is equal to 0 message all add a specific VLANID, to mark that the message comes from the upper-level communication equipment (here, for the central frame SCU, the upper-level communication equipment is BAM), set the specific VLANID The VLAN ID is 1000.

[0084] Step S202: The central box SCU sends a BOOTP message to the BAM.

[0085] The central fr...

Embodiment 2

[0104] In this embodiment, after starting the central frame SCU, start the non-central frame SCU that is not directly connected to the BAM but is cascaded to the central frame SCU (see figure 1 In the non-central frame SCU200 directly connected with the central frame SCU100), using the method of the present invention to obtain a MAC address and an IP address for the non-central frame SCU as an example, the method of the present invention is specifically described, image 3 Shown is the schematic flow chart of the method of this embodiment, as shown in the figure, comprising the following steps:

[0105] Step S301: Start the non-central box SCU200.

[0106] Start the SCU200 in the non-central frame, and only open the 0th network port connected to the central frame SCU. A specific VLAN ID is added to the message with TAG equal to 0, to indicate that the message comes from a superior communication device (herein for the non-central frame SCU200, the superior communication device...

Embodiment 3

[0130] In this embodiment, the service single board (such as figure 1 The business veneer 300 shown) is taken as an example, and the method of the present invention is further described:

[0131] Figure 4 It is a schematic flow chart of the method of this embodiment, as shown in the figure, including the following steps:

[0132] Step S401: Start the service board 300 and send a BOOTP request.

[0133] Start the service single board 300, and send BOOTP request with VLAN=0, when BOOTP requests, each bit of the first frame number field is all set to be 0, if can read the current frame number, then will read to Fill in the frame number in the second frame number field, if it does not know its own frame number, set each bit of the second frame number field to be 1.

[0134] After the BOOTP request is sent out, when entering the SCU of the frame through the port of the SCU of the frame where the service single board 300 is located, the VLAN ID of the BOOTP message is replaced w...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method of obtaining MAC address for communication equipment and the communication system thereof, where the MAC address comprises port number, tank position number and frame number. And the method comprises the steps of: communication equipment sends a request message for obtaining frame number to upper communication equipment; the upper network equipment receives and answers the request message and makes a response message carry the frame number; the upper network equipment issues the response message to the network equipment; the network equipment obtains the frame number according to the response message and combines with the obtained port number, tank position number and main-backup / non-main-backup tag value to complete MAC address configuration. Thus, it realizes that communication network automatically completes MAC address configuration of all communication equipment in system and assures MAC configuration accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method for a communication device to acquire a MAC address and a communication system. Background technique [0002] In telecommunication equipment, Ethernet-based interconnection technologies are widely used. In Ethernet interconnection, a MAC address is an identifier that uniquely identifies a hardware node. [0003] In the prior art, the MAC address of the node is generally assigned by means of hardware dialing or writing. However, there is a requirement for the operator to use the hardware dialing or writing method, and the dialing code cannot be dialed incorrectly. If the dialing is wrong, it will cause serious problems of communication blocking or errors; and using this technical solution, dialing There must also be a strict match between the code and the connection. If the match is not correct, other configurations of the system will also be affected. Contents of the inventi...
