Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of management system technology and relates to a cloud desktop IT device management system. Background Technology

[0002] As the number of external devices in the office (USB flash drives, keyboards, mice, USB security tokens, etc.) gradually increases, the management of these devices becomes increasingly complex and cumbersome. This places a considerable workload on device administrators. Due to the large number of devices, situations may arise where different users mistakenly use external devices that do not belong to them. For example, user A's device may be temporarily used by user B, causing user A to be unable to find their own device. When user A's external storage device (such as a USB flash drive) is borrowed and operated by user B, user B may accidentally delete data from user A's storage device, resulting in data loss.

[0003] With numerous office devices, users frequently misuse other people's USB storage devices, such as USB flash drives, leading to accidental deletion of user data; users' external devices (keyboards, mice, etc.) are used indiscriminately, resulting in a lack of standardized procedures for device usage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cloud desktop IT device management system to quickly help users find their own IT external devices, avoiding the need to search for their own IT external devices during asset audits or other situations; it can also prevent others from accidentally using USB storage devices that do not belong to them, resulting in the accidental deletion of data on the USB storage devices.

[0005] The technical solution used in this invention is a cloud desktop IT device management system, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: Run the cloud desktop on the terminal and connect external devices to the terminal for use on the cloud desktop;

[0007] Step 2: After the cloud desktop client identifies the connected external device, it queries the USB device to find the corresponding Product ID (PID). Then, it queries the cloud desktop to see if the external device's PID has already been mapped to another desktop. If it has, the cloud desktop will prohibit the use of the external device. At this point, the cloud desktop's MAC address will be recorded in the usage record corresponding to the external device's PID and MAC address mapping table, making it easier for users with the MAC address bound to the external device to find it. The types of external devices include: keyboard, mouse, and USB flash drive.

[0008] Step 3: If the external device connected to the terminal is not associated with the cloud desktop, the cloud desktop client queries the product identification code (PID) of the external device by checking the USB device. The client then sets up a mapping relationship between the network interface card (MAC) address of the external device and the cloud desktop, and reports this to the server. In Step 3, when multiple external devices are connected, a one-to-many mapping relationship is established between the MAC address and the multiple external devices. In Step 3, the server records the MAC address of the cloud desktop that has tried using the external device in its corresponding product identification code (PID) and MAC address mapping record table, recording only the last use to facilitate subsequent retrieval of the external device.

[0009] Step 4: Once the association between the external device and the cloud desktop is established, the external device can be used on the cloud desktop.

[0010] Step 5: The cloud desktop client disconnects the device identifier (PID) of the external device from the network interface card (MAC) address of the cloud desktop, and the administrator deletes the desktop. In step 5, after the administrator deletes the desktop, the server cannot find the corresponding MAC address in the cloud desktop system, and the mapping relationship between the external device's PID and the cloud desktop's MAC address is also disconnected.

[0011] PID stands for Product ID.

[0012] Every USB (Universal Serial BUS) has a VID and a PID. The VID and PID values ​​are actually unique IDs used by the USB device to identify it when it is connected to the Windows system. When the device is connected to the computer via USB, its driver depends on these values.

[0013] The VID (Virtual ID) is obtained by the vendor from the USB-IF (Implementers Forum). Each vendor's VID is unique, while the PID (Process ID) is determined by the vendor. The host uses the VID and PID to identify different devices and, based on them (and the device's version number), can load or install the appropriate driver. Both the VID and PID are two bytes long. Typically, a device's VID and PID consist of a string of characters, such as: USB\VID_04A9&pid_1761, where the underscore (_) represents the specific VID and PID values.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0015] The terminal runs a cloud desktop and connects to external devices such as keyboards, mice, and USB storage devices. After the cloud desktop recognizes the external device, it can set the mapping relationship between the external device's PID and the desktop's MAC address. After the relationship is set, the server records it. Once this association is established, if an external device that is already bound to another cloud desktop is used on one cloud desktop, it will be prohibited from being used, and the server will record the usage history of this cloud desktop to facilitate cloud desktop users to find the device later. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a cloud desktop IT device management system according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] like Figure 1 The cloud desktop IT device management system of the present invention, as shown, specifically includes the following steps:

[0019] Step 1: Run the cloud desktop on the terminal and connect external devices to the terminal for use on the cloud desktop;

[0020] Step 2: After the cloud desktop client identifies the connected external device, it queries the USB device to find the corresponding Product ID (PID). Then, it queries the cloud desktop to see if the external device's PID has already been mapped to another desktop. If it has, it will be blocked, and the cloud desktop will not be able to use the external device. At this time, the cloud desktop's MAC address will be recorded in the usage record corresponding to the external device's PID and MAC address mapping table, making it easier for users with the MAC address bound to the external device to find it. The types of external devices include: keyboard, mouse, and USB flash drive.

[0021] Step 3: If the external device connected to the terminal is not associated with the cloud desktop, the cloud desktop client queries the product identification code (PID) of the external device by checking the USB device. The client then sets up a mapping relationship between the network interface card (MAC) address of the external device and the cloud desktop, and reports this to the server. In Step 3, when multiple external devices are connected, a one-to-many mapping relationship is established between the MAC address and the multiple external devices. In Step 3, the server records the MAC addresses of cloud desktops that have previously used the external device in its corresponding product identification code (PID) and MAC address mapping record table, recording only the last use to facilitate subsequent device retrieval.

[0022] Step 4: Once the association between the external device and the cloud desktop is established, the external device can be used on the cloud desktop.

[0023] Step 5: The cloud desktop client disconnects the device identifier (PID) of the external device from the network interface card (MAC) address of the cloud desktop, and the administrator deletes the desktop. In step 5, after the administrator deletes the desktop, the server cannot find the corresponding MAC address in the cloud desktop system, and the mapping relationship between the external device's PID and the cloud desktop's MAC address is also disconnected.

[0024] Example: When a terminal runs a cloud desktop and connects to an external device, such as a keyboard, mouse, or USB storage device, the cloud desktop can set a mapping relationship between the external device's product identification code (PID) and network card address (MAC address). Once the relationship is set, the server records it. After this association is established, external devices with the bound association will be prohibited from use on the cloud desktop, and the server will record the cloud desktop's usage history to facilitate users in finding devices later.

[0025] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
