[0080] The Internet Protocol address configuration instruction is subjected to Ethernet data parsing to obtain the Internet Protocol address to be configured for address setting.

[0081] Based on the above-mentioned terminal device, various embodiments of the method for configuring the Internet Protocol address of the present application are provided.

[0082] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flow chart of the first embodiment of the method for configuring an Internet Protocol address of the present application.

[0083] It should be understood that, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application can certainly perform the steps shown or described in a different order from that herein. In addition, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application is applied to the above-mentioned terminal device. In order to clearly illustrate the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application, the following text will respectively use one of the terminal device, the baseboard management controller BMC, and another type of the terminal device, the core board, as the execution subject to describe the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application.

[0084] like Figure 2 As shown, in the first embodiment of the method for configuring the Internet Protocol address of the present application, the method for configuring the Internet Protocol address of the present application may include the following steps:

[0085] Step S10: traverse the core boards to determine the target core board to be configured with the Internet Protocol address;

[0086] In this embodiment, during the configuration of the Internet Protocol address for the core board in the server, the baseboard management controller BMC in the server first traverses and detects each core board in the server to determine one or more target core boards among the core boards for which the Internet Protocol address is to be configured.

[0087] It should be noted that in this embodiment and other feasible embodiments described below, the baseboard management controller BMC in the server is connected to the server cabinet where each core board of the server is located through a network cable. Figure 3 As shown, the baseboard management controller BMC is connected to the switch chip in the server cabinet through the network cable, and the switch chip is connected to each core board through the next-level switch chip using the USB3.0 to network port. In this way, the baseboard management controller BMC can configure the Internet Protocol address for each target core board in each core board through the connection architecture of BMC-network cable-switch chip-core board.

[0088] Step S20: Sending an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board based on a preset custom Ethernet protocol, so that the target core board configures the Internet Protocol address according to the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction.

[0089] In this embodiment, after the baseboard management controller BMC determines one or more target core boards to be configured with Internet Protocol addresses from the various core boards of the server, it immediately uses a preset custom Ethernet protocol to send an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board, and the target core board receives the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction based on the custom Ethernet protocol, and configures itself based on the Internet Protocol address obtained by parsing the instruction.

[0090] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, when the baseboard management controller BMC determines multiple target core boards, it can issue the Internet protocol address configuration instructions of each target core board to each target core board respectively in sequence, or, when the server performance allows, the baseboard management controller BMC can also issue the Internet protocol address configuration instructions of each target core board to each target core board at the same time. Thus, each target core board can configure its own unique Internet protocol address according to its own exclusive Internet protocol address configuration instructions.

[0091] In addition, the preset custom Ethernet protocol is based on the connection architecture between the above-mentioned baseboard management controller BMC and each core board, and the protocol for data communication interaction between the baseboard management controller BMC and each core board is autonomously set. It should be understood that, based on the different design needs of actual applications, among different feasible implementation methods, based on the differences in the communication protocols that the server itself can support, the above-mentioned custom Ethernet protocol can certainly be replaced with other types of protocols, but no matter how the protocol type is, as long as the protocol is defined as data communication interaction between the baseboard management controller BMC and each core board, it should belong to the technical scope of the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of this application.

[0092] In addition, each core board in the server can specifically control the data communication interaction process with the baseboard management controller BMC through the core board application program.

[0093] Optionally, in a feasible embodiment, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application may also include:

[0094] Establishing a communication data packet based on the custom protocol;

[0095] In this embodiment, before the baseboard management controller BMC sends an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board based on the above-mentioned preset custom Ethernet protocol, the baseboard management controller BMC also pre-establishes a communication data packet based on the custom protocol for data communication interaction with each core board in the server.

[0096] Exemplarily, in a feasible embodiment, the above-mentioned communication data packet may specifically be a SOCK_RAW type SOCKET based on the above-mentioned custom Ethernet protocol.

[0097] Based on this, the step of "sending an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board based on a preset custom Ethernet protocol" in the above step S20 may include:

[0098] Encapsulating the Internet Protocol address to be configured in the communication data packet to generate an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction;

[0099] The Internet Protocol address configuration instruction is sent to the target core board according to the custom Ethernet protocol.

[0100] In the present embodiment, when the baseboard management controller BMC issues an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board based on the above-mentioned preset custom Ethernet protocol, the Internet Protocol address to be configured to the target core board that has been generated is first encapsulated in the communication data packet established based on the above-mentioned custom Ethernet protocol, thereby generating an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction exclusive to the target core board. Afterwards, the baseboard management controller BMC can further send the generated Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board or the application corresponding to the target core board according to the content of the above-mentioned custom Ethernet protocol.

[0101] For example, in this embodiment, after the baseboard management controller BMC establishes the SOCK_RAW type SOCKET based on the custom Ethernet protocol, it can fill the generated Internet Protocol address of the target core board into the Ethernet data frame by further constructing the Ethernet data frame, thereby generating an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction exclusive to the target core board.

[0102] Optionally, in some feasible embodiments, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application may also include:

[0103] According to the respective media access control addresses of the respective core boards, traversing the respective core boards to determine the target core board to be configured with the Internet Protocol address among the respective core boards;

[0104] An Internet Protocol address uniquely identifying the target core board is generated according to the media access control address of the target core board.

[0105] In this embodiment, when the baseboard management controller BMC determines the target core board to be configured with the Internet Protocol address among the core boards of the server, the baseboard management controller BMC traverses the core boards in sequence based on the media access control addresses of the core boards to confirm one or more core boards among the core boards that have not been configured with the Internet Protocol address at the current moment. After that, the baseboard management controller BMC can determine the one or more core boards as the target core boards to be configured with the Internet Protocol address.

[0106] Exemplarily, after the baseboard management controller BMC completes the configuration of the Internet Protocol address of a core board among each core board, the baseboard management controller BMC marks the media access control address of the core board. Then, the baseboard management controller BMC takes an unmarked media access control address as the target MAC address in order through the respective media access control addresses of each core board, thereby setting the target MAC address to the media access control address of the server core board that currently needs to configure the Internet Protocol address - the MAC address, so that the server core board is the target core board to be configured with the Internet Protocol address.

[0107] In addition, in this embodiment, the baseboard management controller BMC can also automatically and sequentially generate an Internet Protocol address for uniquely identifying the target core board according to the media access control address of the target core board whose Internet Protocol address is currently to be configured.

[0108] Optionally, in a feasible embodiment, the above step of "generating a unique Internet Protocol address of the target core board according to the media access control address of the target core board" may include:

[0109] Acquire the correspondence between the media access control address and the Internet Protocol address;

[0110] According to the corresponding relationship, determining the target Internet Protocol address corresponding to the media access control address of the target core board in each Internet Protocol address;

[0111] The target Internet Protocol address is used as an Internet Protocol address that uniquely identifies the target core board.

[0112] In the present embodiment, when the baseboard management controller BMC generates the Internet Protocol address that uniquely identifies the target core board, the corresponding relationship between the respective media access control addresses of each core board and the Internet Protocol address can be obtained. Then, the baseboard management controller BMC can determine the media access control address of the current target core board according to the corresponding relationship, and the only target Internet Protocol address corresponding to each Internet Protocol address. Finally, the baseboard management controller BMC can determine the target Internet Protocol address as the Internet Protocol address for uniquely identifying the target core board.

[0113] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the correspondence between the media access control addresses and the Internet Protocol addresses can specifically be a relationship table in which a media access control address corresponds to an Internet Protocol address one to one, so that the baseboard management controller BMC can determine the Internet Protocol address used to uniquely identify the target core board by performing a table lookup operation based on the media access control address of the target core board.

[0114] Optionally, in a feasible embodiment, in the above-mentioned step S20: sending an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board based on a preset custom Ethernet protocol, so that the target core board configures the Internet Protocol address according to the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application may also include:

[0115] Detecting whether each core board is configured with an Internet Protocol address;

[0116] The core board that is not configured with the Internet Protocol address is used as the target core board to repeatedly perform the operations of traversing the target core board and sending the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board until each core board is configured with the Internet Protocol address.

[0117] In the present embodiment, baseboard management controller BMC, after each time according to each embodiment of above-mentioned steps S10 and step S20, performs the configuration operation of Internet protocol address to target core board, further traverses each core board to detect and determine whether Internet protocol address has been configured in each core board. Afterwards, if it is detected that there is still a core board without configuring Internet protocol address in each core board, baseboard management controller BMC will re-execute each embodiment of above-mentioned steps S10 to step S20 by this core board as new target core board, traverse target core board and send Internet protocol address configuration instruction to target core board, so that this new target core also carries out the setting of Internet protocol address according to this Internet protocol address configuration instruction. In this way, baseboard management controller BMC can make all core boards in server automatically complete the configuration of Internet protocol address by the circulation of above-mentioned operation process.

[0118] In the present embodiment, in the process of configuring the Internet Protocol address for the core board in the server, the baseboard management controller BMC in the server first determines one or more target core boards to be configured with the Internet Protocol address among the core boards by traversing and detecting each core board in the server. After the baseboard management controller BMC determines one or more target core boards to be configured with the Internet Protocol address from the core boards of the server, it immediately uses a preset custom Ethernet protocol to send an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction to the target core board, and the target core board receives the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction based on the custom Ethernet protocol, and configures the Internet Protocol address based on parsing the instruction to obtain the Internet Protocol address.

[0119] Thus, compared with the traditional method of using the DHCP protocol to dynamically obtain the Internet Protocol for IP address configuration, the embodiment of the present application can realize the operation of automatically configuring the IP address of the server based on the communication connection between the baseboard management controller and each core board, thereby eliminating the need to rely on the DHCP server, which can greatly save equipment costs and simplify test complexity during server automated testing and production. That is, the embodiment of the present application realizes efficient configuration of the IP address of the core board in the server cabinet without increasing the server cost and the complexity of the test environment.

[0120] Furthermore, to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application also provides a method for configuring an Internet Protocol address. The method for configuring an Internet Protocol address of the present application is applied to each core board in the above-mentioned server, or is applied to the application programs corresponding to each core board.

[0121] like Figure 4 As shown, when the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application is applied to the core board, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application may include the following steps:

[0122] Step S30: receiving an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller according to a preset custom Ethernet protocol;

[0123] In this embodiment, before setting its own Internet Protocol address, each core board in the server also establishes a monitoring event for the connected baseboard management controller BMC based on the above-mentioned custom Ethernet protocol, thereby receiving the Internet Protocol address configuration instructions sent by the baseboard management controller BMC based on monitoring the baseboard management controller BMC.

[0124] Step S40: configuring the Internet Protocol address according to the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction.

[0125] In this embodiment, after receiving the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller BMC, each core board in the server can obtain the Internet Protocol address encapsulated in the communication data packet by parsing the instruction. In this way, the core board can set the Internet Protocol address as its own unique address for subsequent server testing and / or self-test processes.

[0126] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, each core board in the server can be managed by an application program, that is, the application program is based on the above-mentioned Figure 3The core board shown is physically connected to the baseboard management controller BMC to monitor the communication interaction data sent by the baseboard management controller BMC according to the custom Ethernet protocol, so that after receiving the exclusive Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller BMC for a certain target core board, the application program parses the instruction and sets the Internet Protocol address carried in the instruction as the Internet Protocol address of the target core board. Exemplarily, in a feasible embodiment, the application program of each core board can specifically set the Internet Protocol address for each core board of the server through commands such as SIOCSIFADDR.

[0127] Optionally, in a feasible embodiment, the above step S30: receiving the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller according to a preset custom Ethernet protocol may include:

[0128] Monitoring communication data based on the custom Ethernet protocol to receive an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller;

[0129] In this embodiment, each core board in the server can create communication data monitoring for the baseboard management controller BMC based on the above-mentioned custom Ethernet protocol, so that when the baseboard management controller BMC sends communication interaction data, it receives the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller.

[0130] Optionally, in other feasible embodiments, the core board in the server can also be uniformly monitored by an application program for communication data of the baseboard management controller BMC. Exemplarily, the application program can create a SOCK_RAW type SOCKET and monitor it, so as to receive Internet protocol address configuration instructions for one or more target core boards from the baseboard management controller BMC.

[0131] In addition, in a feasible embodiment, the above step S40: configuring the Internet Protocol address according to the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction may include:

[0132] The Internet Protocol address configuration instruction is subjected to Ethernet data parsing to obtain the Internet Protocol address to be configured for address setting.

[0133] In this embodiment, after receiving the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction for one or more target core boards from the baseboard management controller BMC, each core board in the server or the application corresponding to the core board can immediately perform Ethernet data parsing on the instruction to obtain the Internet Protocol address encapsulated in the communication data packet by the baseboard management controller BMC, and then use the Internet Protocol address for address setting.

[0134] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, if multiple target core boards all receive the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction issued by the baseboard management controller BMC, the target core board can determine whether the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction is an instruction exclusive to itself based on its own media access control address. Thus, when it is determined that it is an instruction exclusive to itself only, the target core board will continue to parse the instruction to obtain the Internet Protocol address therein for setting.

[0135] If the application corresponding to each core board receives an Internet Protocol address configuration instruction issued by the baseboard management controller BMC, the application can directly parse the instruction and obtain the Internet Protocol address therein, and then configure the Internet Protocol address of each target core board in sequence according to the media access control address of each target core board. That is, the Internet Protocol address is currently configured to the target core board with the first media access control address sorted, and the next time a new Internet Protocol address configuration instruction is received from the baseboard management controller BMC, the new Internet Protocol address is parsed to obtain the new Internet Protocol address, and then the new Internet Protocol address is configured to the next target core board.

[0136] For example, after receiving the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller BMC, the application of the core board can parse the Ethernet data frame according to the instruction to obtain the Internet Protocol address filled in the Ethernet data frame by the baseboard management controller BMC, because the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction is actually data of a custom Ethernet protocol type.

[0137] In the present embodiment, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application is that each core board in the server also establishes a monitoring event for the connected baseboard management controller BMC based on the above-mentioned custom Ethernet protocol before setting its own Internet Protocol address, thereby receiving the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller BMC based on monitoring the baseboard management controller BMC. After receiving the Internet Protocol address configuration instruction sent by the baseboard management controller BMC, each core board in the server can obtain the Internet Protocol address encapsulated in the communication data packet by parsing the instruction, so that the core board can set the Internet Protocol address to its own unique address for subsequent server testing and / or self-test processes.

[0138] Thus, compared with the traditional method of using the DHCP protocol to dynamically obtain the Internet Protocol for IP address configuration, the configuration method of the Internet Protocol address of the present application can realize the operation of automatically configuring the IP address of the server based on the communication connection between the baseboard management controller and each core board, thereby eliminating the need to rely on the DHCP server, which can greatly save equipment costs and simplify test complexity during server automated testing and production. That is, the embodiment of the present application realizes efficient configuration of the IP address of the core board in the server cabinet without increasing the server cost and the complexity of the test environment.
