[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present disclosure and its application or use. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0033] The present disclosure provides an address allocation method that can be used to allocate IP addresses to production equipment on a production line. Figure 1 ~Describe.

[0034] Figure 1 Flowcharts of some embodiments of the address allocation method disclosed herein. Figure 1 As shown, the method of this embodiment includes: steps S102 to S112.

[0035] In step S102 , the terminal identifies the location of the production equipment and obtains the location information of the production equipment.

[0036] In some embodiments, the terminal can be a terminal that uses a mobile network, such as a 4G or 5G customized terminal. The terminal can be connected to the production equipment via a USB interface or a network interface. The terminal is a pluggable terminal, plug and play, which is more convenient.

[0037] In some embodiments, markers for indicating locations may be fixedly set at locations such as the floor and ceiling in the factory, for example, pictures, QR codes, bar codes, etc. indicating the locations. The terminal uses a camera to capture and identify the location marker set at the location of the production equipment to obtain the location information of the production equipment. Alternatively, the terminal uses a barcode scanner to scan the location code set at the location of the production equipment to obtain the location information of the production equipment. In addition, devices that can output signals representing location information may also be fixedly set, such as NFC target devices, RFID tags, etc. The terminal obtains the location information of the production equipment by interacting with an NFC (Near Field Communication) initiator device and an NFC target device set at the location of the production equipment; alternatively, the terminal obtains the location information of the production equipment by interacting with an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) reader and an RFID tag set at the location of the production equipment.

[0038] The location here doesn't necessarily refer to specific coordinates such as longitude and latitude. Since factories are fixed and production equipment is generally arranged in an orderly fashion, the location of production equipment can be represented by rows and columns, or directly by numbers. For example, the terminal may identify that the production equipment is currently in the second row and third column, or in the sixth position.

[0039] In some embodiments, in response to the movement of production equipment on the production line, the terminal identifies the location of the production equipment on the production line. The terminal can sense the movement of the production equipment, for example, using a gyroscope, accelerometer, or other device. When the production equipment moves, the terminal begins identifying the location of the production equipment. The terminal can also periodically activate components such as a camera, barcode scanner, NFC initiator, or RFID reader for identification.

[0040] In step S104, the terminal sends the location information of the production equipment to the address allocation platform. Correspondingly, the address allocation platform receives the location information of the production equipment sent by the terminal.

[0041] The terminal captures images through a camera and can directly perform image recognition to obtain location information, or it can send the image as location information to the address allocation platform, which will perform image recognition to obtain specific location information.

[0042] The address allocation platform can be set independently or in a network element such as an MME (Mobility Management Entity) or a UPF (User Plane Function).

[0043] In step S106, the address allocation platform determines the group to which the production equipment belongs based on the location information of the production equipment.

[0044] The address allocation platform can pre-configure the group to which the location information of each location belongs, for example, locations 01, 02, and 03 are one group, and locations 04, 05, and 06 are another group. Then, based on the location information of the production equipment, it can be determined which production equipment belongs to the same group.

[0045] In some embodiments, the address allocation platform matches the location information of the production equipment with the location information stored in the database; when the address allocation platform matches the location information that is identical to the location information of the production equipment, the address allocation platform determines the group to which the production equipment belongs based on the location information of the production equipment. When the address allocation platform does not match the location information that is identical to the location information of the production equipment, the terminal instructs the terminal to resend the location information. After receiving the instruction, the terminal re-executes steps S102 to S106. The terminal may incorrectly identify the location information of the production equipment, which can be corrected according to the above method. If the number of errors in the location information sent by the terminal reaches a threshold, the address allocation platform will no longer instruct the terminal to resend the location information.

[0046] In some embodiments, the address allocation platform receives configuration information and stores the configuration information in a database. The configuration information includes: location information of each preset location and the group to which the location information of each location belongs.

[0047] Equipment on the same production line can be grouped together. Before making a production line change, you can pre-plan the line's location and assign the corresponding location information to the grouping information for the equipment on the same line. Since you know the number of equipment on the line, you only need to configure the planned location of the first or last equipment. Based on the number of equipment, you can determine the planned location of each piece of equipment. You can also assign the grouping to the location information after a production equipment change. Similarly, simple configuration is required based on the number of equipment on the line and the location of the first or last equipment.

[0048] In step S108, the address allocation platform allocates an IP address within the network segment corresponding to the group to which the production device belongs.

[0049] The production equipment on the same production line is configured to be located in the same production network and can be assigned IP addresses in the same network segment. The production network is, for example, a VPN (Virtual Private Network).

[0050] In some embodiments, the address allocation platform allocates consecutive IP addresses in the same network segment to the production equipment on the same production line in the order of their locations. Figure 2As shown in the figure, before the change, Device 1, Device 2, and Device 3 were in locations 01, 02, and 03, respectively. After the change, Device 1, Device 2, and Device 3 are in locations 07, 08, and 09, respectively. The IP addresses of Device 1, Device 2, and Device 3 have changed from 1.1.1.1, 1.1.1.2, and 1.1.1.3 before the change to 2.2.2.7, 2.2.2.8, and 2.2.2.9 after the change. The IP addresses of Device 1, Device 2, and Device 3 are assigned consecutively based on their locations, which facilitates IP address management and avoids duplicate assignments.

[0051] In step S110, the address allocation platform sends the IP address to the terminal, and correspondingly, the terminal receives the IP address allocated by the address allocation platform.

[0052] The assigned IP address serves as the IP address of the production device in the production network.

[0053] In step S112, the production device joins the production network through the terminal using the IP address.

[0054] In the above embodiment, a terminal is connected to production equipment, and the terminal identifies the location of the production equipment. This location information is then transmitted to an address allocation platform, which then assigns an IP address within the production network to the production equipment based on the location information. This solution enables automatic network configuration based on the new location of the production equipment when the flexible production line is changed, eliminating the need for rewiring or manual configuration. This simplifies the process of connecting production equipment to the network, improves the efficiency of network access for production equipment, and significantly enhances production efficiency.
