In addition, due to the need for additional docking work, some configuration errors or compatibility problems may be introduced, affecting the stability and performance of the network. SUMMARY

[0148] Save time and labor costs: there is no longer a need for engineers corresponding to the SDN controller and the switch to perform deployment work, reducing the demand for human resources and also saving the time required for deployment, thereby improving deployment efficiency.

[0149] Flexible selection of target servers: the target servers for deploying the SDN controller can be flexibly selected according to actual needs, thereby increasing the flexibility and scalability of deployment.

[0150] It should be noted that, with the development of network technology, more and more data centers introduce SDN controllers to manage the network. Through the SDN controller, dynamic configuration, optimization and security protection of the network can be achieved, thereby improving the operation efficiency and reliability of the data center. In the deployment stage of the data center, the SDN controller and the switch device usually need to be deployed separately, and docking between the controller and the device is performed after deployment is completed, so as to complete the management of the network by the SDN controller. This process often requires engineers corresponding to the SDN controller and the switch to perform deployment work, and in the deployment process of the data center, a part of time and human resources needs to be occupied. Therefore, how to complete the rapid deployment and management of the SDN controller and the switch while saving labor and time costs has become a problem to be solved in the deployment process of the data center.

[0151] The embodiments of the present specification provide an SDN deployment method and system based on a programmable switch, by pre-integrating an SDN deployment package in a switch with programmable characteristics, when the switch and the server are networked and built, the target server IP and login information are specified in the switch, the switch is connected to the specific IP server, and the deployment of the SDN controller is automatically completed. Moreover, when the deployment of the SDN controller is completed, the switch device deployed is managed.

[0152] The embodiments of the present specification provide an SDN deployment method and system based on a programmable switch, by pre-integrating an SDN deployment package in a switch with programmable characteristics, when the switch and the server are networked and built, the target server IP and login information are specified in the switch, the switch is connected to the specific IP server, and the deployment of the SDN controller is automatically completed. Moreover, when the deployment of the SDN controller is completed, the switch device deployed is managed.

[0153] When the server in the network that needs to deploy the SDN controller has completed system deployment, and the corresponding IP is configured at the interconnection interface with the switch according to the network planning, and at this time the switch and server environment have completed deployment.

[0154] When the user needs to deploy the SDN controller, the user can connect to the programmable switch device that needs to perform the deployment operation, and execute the deployment command line at the command line interface. After executing the deployment command line, the user needs to fill in the target server IP address information, username, and password information according to the switch prompt. After completing the above information filling, the switch will log in to the target server through SSH according to the obtained information. If the login is successful, the next deployment step is performed. If the login fails, the switch command line interface will feedback the failure information and interrupt the current deployment step.

[0155] If the SSH login is successful, the user needs to fill in additional deployment information at the switch command line interface. The required information includes the SDN controller management IP, and the deployment mode (single node / cluster deployment). If the cluster deployment mode is selected, the cluster management IP and the current server cluster serial number information also need to be filled in.

[0156] After completing the above information filling, the switch will copy the SDN controller deployment package originally placed in the switch memory to the target server preset path according to the filled corresponding information through SCP. Then, the switch will execute the deployment required command line in the target server system through SSH, and complete the SDN controller deployment in the target server.

[0157] The SDN controller deployment package is preset with the corresponding deployment command line script. When the deployment command line is executed in the deployed corresponding system server, the deployment step will be automatically completed according to the script content.

[0158] In addition, when the user inputs the SDN controller deployment required information at the switch command line interface, the information will be saved in the switch in the form of a json file according to the format, and will be copied to the target server in the subsequent step. When the SDN controller executes the deployment step from the switch command, the json file content will be read according to the format during the deployment process, and the user filled in each item of information required for deploying the SDN controller will be obtained. The file also includes each item of information required for the SDN controller to manage the switch, such as the SDN controller reachable management network IP, management username and password, SNMP related configuration, etc.

[0159] When the SDN controller deployment is completed, the switch interface will generate corresponding log information to prompt the user about the deployment result. If it is a cluster deployment mode, the corresponding deployment result will be prompted after waiting for the cluster service and cluster management IP to start.

[0160] Subsequently, the SDN controller will also complete the management of the switch performing the SDN controller deployment operation according to the information provided by the switch required for the management, and after the management is completed, the SDN will configure and control the networked managed equipment in the subsequent use process according to the saved device management information, obtain the information of the equipment, etc.

[0161] In the above manner, after the user completes the initialization and deployment of the switch and the server in the machine room, the user can execute the related command in the switch with programmable characteristics, so that the switch automatically executes the SDN controller deployment in the target server, and manages the switch equipment after the deployment is completed. The human and time costs brought by manual deployment are saved, and the work efficiency of the data center user implementation and operation is improved.
