[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solution of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0021] The technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0022] like Figure 1As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a cabinet group lighting control method based on SDN, including:
[0023] S101: Based on configuration information of a switch device in a computer room, the switch device is connected and initialized through an SDN controller deployed in the computer room to complete management of the switch device.
[0024] Specifically, before the SDN controller manages the switch devices in the data center, the management address and management information of the switch devices that need to be managed by the SDN controller are obtained, configured in the SDN controller, and automatic deployment commands controlled by the SDN are added to the switch devices, thereby completing the construction of the physical link and management network.
[0025] Furthermore, the corresponding initialization configuration is completed on the switch so that the SDN controller can connect to the switch device that needs to be managed through protocols such as ssh and snmp, and the automatic deployment command is executed in the SDN controller command line interface to complete the SDN controller's management process of the switch device.
[0026] It should be noted that the switch will copy the SDN controller installation package originally placed in the switch memory to the preset path of the target server through SCP, and then execute the command line required for installation in the target server system through SSH to complete the installation of the SDN controller in the target server. When the user enters the information required for the SDN controller installation in the switch command line interface, the information will be saved in the switch in the form of a json file in accordance with the format, and copied to the target server in subsequent steps. When the SDN controller executes the installation steps from the switch command, it will read the json file content in the format during the installation process to obtain the various information required for the deployment of the SDN controller filled in by the user. The SDN controller will complete the management of the switch that performs the SDN controller installation operation based on the required management information provided by the switch. After the management is completed, the SDN will configure and control the managed devices in the network based on the saved device management information during subsequent use, and obtain various device information.
[0027] S102: Acquire a cabinet information interface of each cabinet in the computer room, send the cabinet information interface to the SDN controller, and obtain corresponding cabinet information by invoking the cabinet information interface through the SDN controller.
[0028] Specifically, the cabinet information interface of each cabinet in the computer room is identified and obtained. The cabinet information interface may be an API (application programming interface), and the configuration information of the cabinet information interface is sent to the SDN controller, such as URL, authentication information, request parameters, etc. The cabinet information is obtained by calling the cabinet information interface through the SDN controller.
[0029] Before calling the cabinet information interface, the cabinet information interface is verified to verify the validity of the cabinet information interface, wherein the verification process may include checking the accessibility of the interface (such as whether it can successfully connect to the interface address), the security of the interface (such as whether the correct authentication method is used), and the basic functions of the interface (such as whether it can return data as expected).
[0030] When it is determined that the cabinet information interface is valid, a call request is generated according to the interface definition of the cabinet information interface, wherein the interface definition includes the request method, request header, request body, etc., and the call request is sent to the cabinet information interface through the SDN controller. After receiving the call request sent by the SDN controller, the cabinet information interface performs corresponding processing according to the request content of the call request, generates response data, and returns the response data to the SDN controller, and the response data includes the cabinet information required for the request.
[0031] After receiving the response data returned by the cabinet information interface, the SDN controller parses the response data according to the interface definition, converts the original response data into the format used by the SDN controller (such as JSON, XML, etc.), and extracts the cabinet information from it. The cabinet information includes cabinet number, cabinet location, cabinet status, and light status.
[0032] S103: creating a cabinet topology according to the cabinet information, binding topological nodes in the cabinet topology with the cabinets in the computer room, and displaying the cabinet topology through the front-end interface of the SDN controller.
[0033] Specifically, based on the cabinet position in the cabinet information, an initial cabinet topology diagram is created to display the physical connection relationship, layout, location and other information between the cabinets in the computer room. The cabinet is converted into a graphic element, and topology nodes are created based on the graphic elements. The topology nodes are connected according to the cabinet position and arranged according to the network connection.
[0034] Furthermore, the system will display the created and bound cabinet topology through the front-end interface of the SDN controller. Displaying the cabinet topology allows users to more easily understand the structure and operating status of the computer room, thereby facilitating daily management and maintenance work to enhance user experience and convenience.
[0035] S104: Determine the cabinet number where the switch device is located through the SDN controller, and bind the switch device to a topological node corresponding to the cabinet number to achieve synchronization between the switch device and the cabinet lights.
[0036] Specifically, the physical location of the switch device is determined by the SDN controller, the cabinet slot where the switch device is located is determined according to the physical location, and the cabinet number corresponding to the cabinet is determined, the usage status of the switch device is obtained, and based on the cabinet number, the switch device is bound to the topological node corresponding to the cabinet number, and the usage status is added to the topological node.
[0037] Furthermore, the sensor equipment at the entrance of the cabinet is used to monitor the staff entering the cabinet. When it is determined that the staff has entered the cabinet, the cabinet light is turned on in response to the event, the light in the cabinet is adjusted through the SDN controller, and the light status of the corresponding topological node in the cabinet topology is automatically updated.
[0038] Furthermore, the lights in the cabinet are regulated by the SDN controller to determine the switch devices stored in the cabinet, and based on the light status in the cabinet, the lights of the stored switch devices are regulated to update the light status in the topological node corresponding to the cabinet and the light status of the stored switch devices.
[0039] In addition, the lighting control requirements are obtained through the front-end interface of the SDN controller. The lighting control requirements include color, brightness and switch status. The lighting control requirements are analyzed, the lighting control topology nodes are determined, and the lighting is controlled on the lighting control topology nodes.
[0040] After the switch is initially deployed in the computer room and managed by the SDN controller, the cabinet lighting information in the data center computer room can be obtained through the SDN controller to keep the switch lighting information consistent with the cabinet lighting status. When there is no one in the cabinet to turn off the light, the switch light will also be turned off synchronously.
[0041] Through the SDN architecture, the lighting of multiple cabinet groups can be centrally managed and controlled, avoiding the tedious process of manually adjusting the lighting of each cabinet one by one in the traditional method. By accurately controlling the use time and brightness of the lights, unnecessary energy waste can be effectively reduced and operating costs can be reduced.
