Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of optical networks, and more particularly to a service activation method, a network element management device, and a storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] When activating services on ONU (Optical Network Unit) devices in most operations support systems, the services are typically pre-configured for the ONU device while it is offline. When the ONU device connects to the network, the corresponding services can be activated online. However, if the location of the ONU device does not match the location in the pre-configured services, it will severely affect the normal operation of the ONU device and require manual troubleshooting. Due to the massive amount of data in ONU devices in optical networks, manually locating the ONU device and reactivating the services is very difficult, resulting in low efficiency and success rate of ONU device service activation.

[0003] Therefore, improving the efficiency and success rate of ONU equipment service activation has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a service activation method, a network element management device, and a storage medium. By automatically updating the location information of the initial service information when it is determined that there is a difference between the location information contained in the initial service information and the location information contained in the service activation request, the invention avoids manual investigation and improves the efficiency and success rate of optical network unit service activation.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a service activation method, the method comprising: when receiving a service activation request from an optical line terminal, determining pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request; if the location information contained in the initial service information is different from the location information contained in the service activation request, updating the location information of the initial service information to obtain target service information; and sending the target service information to the optical line terminal, wherein the optical line terminal activates the service in the optical network unit of the service to be activated according to the target service information.

[0006] Secondly, the present invention also provides a network element management device, the network element management device including a processor and a memory; the memory is used to store a program; the processor is used to call the program in the memory to implement the service activation method as described above.

[0007] Thirdly, the present invention also provides a storage medium for readable storage, wherein the storage medium stores one or more programs that can be executed by one or more processors to implement the service activation method described above.

[0008] This invention discloses a service activation method, a network element management device, and a storage medium. Upon receiving a service activation request from an optical line terminal (OLT), the method determines the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request, and then checks whether the location information contained in the initial service information is the same as the location information contained in the service activation request. If the location information in the initial service information differs from that in the service activation request, the method automatically updates the location information of the initial service information, avoiding manual checks. By sending the target service information obtained from the updated location information to the OLT, the OLT can enable the OLT to activate the optical network unit (ONU) for the service to be activated based on the target service information, improving the efficiency and success rate of ONU service activation.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] It should also be understood that the term "and / or" as used in this specification and the appended claims refers to any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations, and includes such combinations.

[0021] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

[0022] In the following description, the use of suffixes such as "module," "part," or "unit" to denote elements is solely for the purpose of illustrative purposes and has no inherent meaning. Therefore, "module," "part," or "unit" may be used interchangeably.

[0023] Embodiments of the present invention provide a service activation method, a network element management device, a service management system, and a storage medium. The service activation method can be applied to a network element management device, enabling automatic updating of the location information in the initial service information when it is determined that the location information contained in the initial service information differs from the location information contained in the service activation request. This avoids manual troubleshooting and improves the efficiency and success rate of optical network unit service activation.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a business management system provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1As shown, the service management system includes network element management equipment, operational network equipment, and at least one optical line terminal (OLT) and at least one optical network unit (ONU) in the optical network. The network element management equipment includes a northbound interface and a southbound interface. The network element management equipment can communicate with the operational network equipment through the northbound interface; the network element management equipment can communicate with each OLT through the southbound interface.

[0025] It should be noted that the northbound interface refers to the interface provided by the network element management device to other network management systems or operators for access and management; the southbound interface refers to the interface by which the network element management device manages other network management systems or devices.

[0026] For example, the network element management device is equipped with an EMS (Element Management System). It should be noted that the EMS system is used to manage one or more telecommunications network elements of a specific type. In this embodiment of the invention, the network element management device is used for initial service information pre-configuration of the optical network and management of service activation of optical network elements within the optical network, etc.

[0027] For example, the operating network equipment is equipped with an OSS (Operation Support System). It should be noted that the OSS system is an integrated, information-resource-sharing support system for telecommunications operators. It mainly consists of network management, system management, billing, business operations, accounting, and customer service components, which are organically integrated through a unified information bus. In this embodiment of the invention, the operating network equipment is used to control the network element management equipment to pre-configure initial service information for the optical network, and to manage the optical network units that have activated services, etc.

[0028] For example, an optical network may include an active optical network and a passive optical network. The service activation method in this embodiment of the invention can be applied to both active and passive optical networks. This embodiment primarily uses a passive optical network as an example to describe in detail how to activate services in an optical network unit.

[0029] In some embodiments, when the network element management device receives a service pre-configuration message sent by the operating network equipment, it can pre-configure the initial service information of the optical network according to the service pre-configuration message to obtain the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit. When the network element management device receives a service activation request from an optical line terminal, it can determine the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request; if the location information contained in the initial service information is different from the location information contained in the service activation request, it updates the location information of the initial service information to obtain the target service information; and sends the target service information to the optical line terminal, which then activates the service for the optical network unit to be activated according to the target service information.

[0030] For example, the services provided by an optical network unit may include, but are not limited to, IPTV (Internet Protocol Television), VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol), and broadband services.

[0031] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a network element management device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The network element management device 100 may include a processor 101 and a memory 102, wherein the processor 101 and the memory 102 can be connected by a bus, such as an I2C (Inter-integrated Circuit) bus or any applicable bus.

[0032] The memory 102 may include a non-volatile storage medium and internal memory. The non-volatile storage medium may store an operating system and a computer program. The computer program includes program instructions that, when executed, cause the processor 101 to perform any service activation method.

[0033] The processor 101 provides computing and control capabilities to support the operation of the entire network element management device 100.

[0034] The processor 101 can be a Central Processing Unit (CPU), but it can also be other general-purpose processors, digital signal processors (DSPs), application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), or other programmable logic devices, discrete gate or transistor logic devices, discrete hardware components, etc. The general-purpose processor can be a microprocessor or any conventional processor.

[0035] In one embodiment, the processor 101 is configured to run a computer program stored in the memory 102, and to perform the following steps when executing the computer program:

[0036] When a service activation request is received from an optical line terminal, the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request is determined. If the location information contained in the initial service information is different from the location information contained in the service activation request, the location information of the initial service information is updated to obtain the target service information. The target service information is then sent to the optical line terminal, and the optical line terminal activates the service for the optical network unit to be activated according to the target service information.

[0037] In one embodiment, when determining the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request, the processor 101 is configured to:

[0038] Extract the first identification code and the first service serial number from the service activation request; based on the first identification code and the first service serial number, obtain the corresponding initial service information from a preset service information list, wherein the service information list includes the correspondence between the identification code, the service serial number and the initial service information.

[0039] In one embodiment, when the processor 101 updates the location information of the initial service information to obtain the target service information, it is configured to:

[0040] Obtain the first location information from the initial service information and the second location information from the service activation request; modify the first location information in the initial service information to the second location information to obtain the target service information.

[0041] In one embodiment, before the processor 101 determines the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request when it receives a service activation request from an optical line terminal, it is further configured to implement:

[0042] When a service pre-configuration message is received from the operating network equipment, the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network is configured according to the service pre-configuration message; and a service information list is generated according to the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit.

[0043] In one embodiment, the optical network includes at least one optical line terminal and at least one optical network unit corresponding to each optical line terminal; when the processor 101 configures the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network according to the service pre-configuration message, it is configured to:

[0044] The location information and service sequence number of each optical network unit are obtained, as well as the identification code of the optical line terminal corresponding to each optical network unit; the identification code, the service sequence number and the location information are associated to obtain the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit.

[0045] In one embodiment, after generating a service information list based on the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit, the processor 101 is further configured to:

[0046] The initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit is sent to the optical line terminal corresponding to each optical network unit for storage.

[0047] In one embodiment, before sending the target service information to the optical line terminal, the processor 101 is further configured to:

[0048] A service information deletion request is sent to the optical line terminal so that the optical line terminal deletes the initial service information corresponding to the optical network unit for the service to be activated, based on the service information deletion request.

[0049] In one embodiment, after sending the target service information to the optical line terminal, the processor 101 is further configured to:

[0050] When the optical line terminal receives a message indicating successful service activation, it sends the target service information to the operating network equipment.

[0051] The following detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a service activation method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. This service activation method is applied in network element management equipment. By automatically updating the location information of the initial service information when it is determined that there is a difference between the location information contained in the initial service information and the location information contained in the service activation request, manual troubleshooting is avoided, thus improving the efficiency and success rate of optical network unit service activation. The service activation method includes steps S10 to S30.

[0053] Step S10: When a service activation request is received from an optical line terminal, determine the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request.

[0054] For example, a service activation request is generated by the optical line terminal (OLT) when it detects that an optical network unit (ONU) has connected to its southbound port and is powered on. It should be noted that when an ONU in a passive optical network (PON) needs to activate a service, it needs to connect to the southbound interface of the OLT.

[0055] In some embodiments, the optical line terminal (OLT) can obtain the service sequence number and location information corresponding to the optical network unit (ONU) for which the service is to be activated. Based on the location information, the service sequence number, and the OLT's identification code, it generates a service activation request. Then, the OLT sends the service activation request to the network element management device (NEM). If the NEM determines that the location information in the initial service information corresponding to the ONU differs from the location information in the service activation request, it updates the location information in the initial service information to obtain the target service information. Finally, the NEM sends the target service information to the OLT, which then activates the service for the ONU based on the target service information.

[0056] It should be noted that the initial service information is pre-configured. For example, when a service activation request is received from an optical line terminal, the network element management device needs to pre-configure the initial service information of the optical network before determining the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request. In this embodiment of the invention, the pre-configuration of initial service information will be described in detail.

[0057] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic flowchart of a sub-step for initial business information pre-configuration provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps S101 and S102.

[0058] Step S101: When a service pre-configuration message is received from the operating network equipment, the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network is configured according to the service pre-configuration message.

[0059] For example, the operating network device can send service pre-configuration messages to the network element management device based on at least one of the following methods: TL1 (Transaction Language-1), CL (Command Line Interface), and SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).

[0060] For example, an optical network includes at least one optical line terminal and at least one optical network unit corresponding to each optical line terminal.

[0061] For example, when a service pre-configuration message is received from an operating network device, the network element management device can perform initial service information pre-configuration on the optical network according to the service pre-configuration message, and obtain the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network. It should be noted that the initial service information pre-configuration mainly determines the initial location information and service sequence number of each optical network unit, as well as the relationship between the location information, service sequence number and the identification code of the optical line terminal of each optical network unit.

[0062] In some embodiments, the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network is configured according to the service pre-configuration message, including: obtaining the location information and service sequence number of each optical network unit, and obtaining the identification code of the optical line terminal corresponding to each optical network unit; associating the identification code, service sequence number and location information to obtain the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit.

[0063] It should be noted that the location information here refers to the information pre-assigned by the network element management equipment before the optical network unit (ONU) is activated for services. This location information may include the port number or port address of the optical line terminal (OLT), or other identifiers used to indicate the location of the ONU; no limitation is made here. The service sequence number may be the number or identifier corresponding to the service to be activated by the ONU.

[0064] For example, each optical network unit (ONU) can be assigned corresponding location information and a service sequence number. For instance, for ONU A, the assigned location information could be port a, and the service sequence number could be SN-1; for ONU B, the assigned location information could be port b, and the service sequence number could be SN-2. Then, the identification code of the optical line terminal (OLT) corresponding to each ONU is obtained; the identification code, service sequence number, and location information are associated to obtain the initial service information corresponding to each ONU.

[0065] It is understandable that, since there may be multiple optical line terminals in an optical network, and each optical line terminal corresponds to at least one optical network unit, in order to accurately identify the initial service information corresponding to the optical network unit, it is necessary to obtain the identification code of the optical line terminal corresponding to the optical network unit and associate the identification code with the location information and service sequence number of the optical network unit.

[0066] By receiving a service pre-configuration message from the operating network equipment and pre-configuring the initial service information of the optical network according to the service pre-configuration message, the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network can be obtained, thereby realizing the initialization of the service information of each optical network unit.

[0067] Step S102: Generate a service information list based on the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit.

[0068] For example, after obtaining the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network, the network element management device can add the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit to a preset data table to obtain the corresponding service information list.

[0069] By generating a service information list based on the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit, the initial service information of all optical network units in the optical network can be obtained.

[0070] In some embodiments, after generating a service information list based on the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit, the method may further include: sending the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit to the optical line terminal corresponding to each optical network unit for storage.

[0071] It should be noted that by sending the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit to the optical line terminal corresponding to each optical network unit for storage, during the service activation process of the optical network unit, when the network element management device determines that the location information contained in the initial service information is the same as the location information contained in the service activation request, the optical line terminal can directly activate the service based on the stored initial service information, thereby improving the efficiency of service activation.

[0072] In some embodiments, when a service activation request is received from an optical line terminal, the network element management device can determine the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request.

[0073] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is an illustrative flowchart of a sub-step for determining the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to a service activation request, provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, it may include the following steps S103 and S104.

[0074] Step S103: Extract the first identification code and the first service serial number from the service activation request.

[0075] It should be noted that since the service activation request is generated by the optical line terminal based on the location information of the optical network unit to be activated, the service serial number, and the identification code of the optical line terminal, the service activation request includes location information, service serial number, and identification code.

[0076] For example, the identification code and service sequence number can be extracted from the service activation request to obtain the corresponding first identification code and first service sequence number. Here, the first service sequence number is the service sequence number corresponding to the optical network unit to be activated; the first identification code is the identification code of the optical line terminal.

[0077] Step S104: Based on the first identification code and the first service serial number, obtain the corresponding initial service information from a preset service information list, wherein the service information list includes the correspondence between the identification code, the service serial number and the initial service information.

[0078] For example, a pre-defined service information list can be retrieved from a local database or local disk. This service information list includes the correspondence between identification codes, service serial numbers, and initial service information. It should be noted that the pre-defined service information list is generated by the network element management device when it receives a service pre-configuration message from the operating network equipment, and performs initial service information pre-configuration on the optical network based on the service pre-configuration message.

[0079] For example, the initial business information can be queried from the business information list based on the first identification code and the first business serial number to obtain the initial business information corresponding to the first identification code and the first business serial number.

[0080] By extracting the first identification code and the first service serial number from the service activation request, it is possible to perform an initial service information query on the service information list based on the first identification code and the first service serial number, thereby improving the accuracy of querying the initial service information.

[0081] Step S20: If the location information contained in the initial service information is different from the location information contained in the service activation request, then the location information of the initial service information is updated to obtain the target service information.

[0082] In this embodiment of the application, after determining the pre-configured initial service information corresponding to the service activation request, the network element management device can determine whether the location information contained in the initial service information is different from the location information contained in the service activation request.

[0083] For example, when it is determined that the location information contained in the initial service information is different from the location information contained in the service activation request, the location information of the initial service information can be updated to obtain the target service information.

[0084] For example, when it is determined that the location information contained in the initial service information is the same as the location information contained in the service activation request, a location verification success message can be generated; then, the location verification success message is sent to the optical line terminal; after receiving the location verification success message, the optical line terminal can activate the service according to the initial service information corresponding to the optical network unit of the service to be activated that is saved.

[0085] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic flowchart of a sub-step for updating location information of initial business information provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps S201 and S202.

[0086] Step S201: Obtain the first location information from the initial service information and the second location information from the service activation request.

[0087] For example, the first location information can be extracted from the initial business information, and the second location information can be extracted from the business activation request.

[0088] Step S202: Modify the first location information in the initial service information to the second location information to obtain the target service information.

[0089] For example, if the first location information is port a and the second location information is port b, then the first location information "port a" can be modified to the second location information "port b". Thus, the modified initial service information includes "port b".

[0090] For example, the modified initial business information can be identified as the target business information.

[0091] By obtaining the first location information from the initial service information and the second location information from the service activation request, and modifying the first location information to the second location information, the location information of the initial service information can be automatically updated, avoiding manual investigation and thus improving the efficiency and success rate of optical network unit service activation.

[0092] It is understandable that when the location information in the initial service information differs from the location information in the service activation request, if the location information is not updated and the optical line terminal directly activates the service based on the initial service information corresponding to the optical network unit of the service to be activated, the service activation will fail. In this embodiment of the invention, by modifying the first location information to the second location information and determining the modified initial service information as the target service information, the optical line terminal can activate the service based on the target service information of the optical network unit of the service to be activated, thereby improving the success rate of optical network unit service activation.

[0093] Furthermore, in existing technologies, when the location of an optical network unit (ONU) service activation differs from its location in the pre-activated service, service activation fails. This necessitates manual troubleshooting and correction, resulting in low efficiency for ONU service activation. In this embodiment of the invention, by modifying the first location information to the second location information, the initial service information is automatically updated, avoiding manual troubleshooting, reducing troubleshooting time, and thus improving the efficiency of ONU service activation.

[0094] Step S30: The target service information is sent to the optical line terminal, and the optical line terminal activates the service in the optical network unit to be activated according to the target service information.

[0095] In some embodiments, before the network element management device sends the target service information to the optical line terminal, it may further include: sending a service information deletion request to the optical line terminal, so that the optical line terminal deletes the initial service information corresponding to the optical network unit of the service to be activated according to the service information deletion request.

[0096] For example, the network element management device can generate a service information deletion request; then, it sends the service information deletion request to the optical line terminal (OLT) via the southbound interface. After receiving the service information deletion request, the OLT can delete the initial service information corresponding to the optical network unit for the service to be activated, based on the request.

[0097] It should be noted that after the network element management device performs initial service information pre-configuration on the optical network based on the service pre-configuration message and obtains the service information list, it also sends the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit to the optical line terminal (OLT) corresponding to each optical network unit for storage. Therefore, the OLT stores the initial service information corresponding to the optical network units for which services are to be activated.

[0098] By sending a service information deletion request to the optical line terminal (OLT), junk data in the OLT can be cleaned up, thereby improving the success rate of service activation. It's understandable that after the network element management device updates the location information of the initial service information and obtains the target service information, the initial service information corresponding to the optical network unit (ONU) of the service to be activated stored in the OLT is essentially junk data and needs to be deleted. Therefore, this avoids the problem of the initial service information corresponding to the ONU of the service to be activated stored in the OLT interfering with the target service information when the target service information is sent to the OLT, leading to service activation failure. This improves the success rate of ONU service activation.

[0099] For example, the network element management device can send target service information to the optical line terminal (OLT) via the southbound interface; the OLT can then activate the services on the optical network unit according to the target service information. For instance, it can activate services such as IPTV, VoIP, telephone, SMS, and broadband on the optical network unit based on actual needs. The specific service activation process is not limited here.

[0100] By sending the target service information obtained from the updated location information to the optical line terminal, the optical line terminal can activate the optical network unit for the service to be activated based on the target service information, thereby improving the efficiency and success rate of optical network unit service activation.

[0101] In some embodiments, after sending the target service information to the optical line terminal, the method may further include: when a service activation success message is received from the optical line terminal, sending the target service information to the operating network equipment.

[0102] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the invention, after the optical line terminal successfully activates the service of the optical network unit according to the target service information, it can generate a service activation success message and send the service activation success message to the southbound interface of the network element management device.

[0103] For example, when the network element management device receives a successful service activation message from the optical line terminal, it can send the target service information to the operating network equipment. It should be noted that after the optical network unit successfully activates the service, the target service information needs to be sent to the operating network equipment for storage to facilitate service management of the optical network unit.

[0104] For example, operating network equipment can manage optical network units that have enabled services through the OSS system.

[0105] By sending the target service information to the operating network equipment when a successful service activation message is received from the optical line terminal, the operating network equipment can locate the optical network unit that has activated the service based on the target service information, thereby enabling the management of the services activated by the optical network unit.

[0106] The service activation method, network element management device, system, and storage medium provided in the above embodiments, by receiving a service pre-configuration message sent by the operating network device, perform initial service information pre-configuration on the optical network according to the service pre-configuration message, thereby obtaining the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit in the optical network and realizing the initialization of the service information of each optical network unit; by sending the initial service information corresponding to each optical network unit to the optical line terminal corresponding to each optical network unit for storage, during the service activation process of the optical network unit, when the network element management device determines that the location information contained in the initial service information is the same as the location information contained in the service activation request, the optical line terminal can directly activate the service according to the stored initial service information, improving the efficiency of service activation; by extracting the first identification code and the first service sequence number from the service activation request, it is possible to realize the initial service information based on the first identification code and the first service sequence number in the service activation request. The identification code and the first service sequence number are used to perform initial service information queries on the service information list, improving the accuracy of initial service information queries. By obtaining the first location information from the initial service information and the second location information from the service activation request, the first location information is modified to the second location information, realizing automatic location information updates for the initial service information, avoiding manual checks, and thus improving the efficiency and success rate of optical network unit service activation. By sending a service information deletion request to the optical line terminal, junk data in the optical line terminal can be cleaned up, thereby improving the success rate of service activation. By sending the target service information to the operating network equipment when a successful service activation message is received from the optical line terminal, the operating network equipment can locate the optical network unit with activated services based on the target service information, thereby enabling the management of services activated by the optical network unit.
