AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the prior art, when managing the IP addresses of chips such as BMC and DPU of the server, as the number of managed chips increases, more computing resources need to be allocated for the management of IP addresses, resulting in resource occupation.

Method used

A network connection device is provided, including a first substrate management controller, a switching module and at least one network card device. Among them, the switching module is provided with a network port divided into different virtual local area networks, and is used to connect the first substrate management controller, the switching network and the network card device. The second substrate management controller in the network card device is configured with a dynamic IP address to realize communication with the switching network. At the same time, the first substrate management controller and the second substrate management controller are configured with a static IP address to realize communication with each other.

Benefits of technology

By dynamically managing the dynamic IP address of the second substrate management controller, the number of IP addresses that need to be dynamically managed is reduced, the complexity of IP address operation and maintenance work and the use of computing resources are reduced, and IP addresses such as server BMC and network card equipment are realized. efficient management.

Abstract

The invention discloses a network connection device and electronic equipment in the technical field of computers. The invention relates to a method. The switching module is provided with a first network port which is divided into a first virtual local area network and is connected with a first baseboard management controller, a second network port which is divided into a second virtual local area network and is connected with a switching network, and at least one third network port which is divided into the first virtual local area network and the second virtual local area network and is connected with at least one network card device. A dynamic IP address configured by a second baseboard management controller in the network card device can communicate with the switched network, and a static IP address configured by the second baseboard management controller in the network card device can communicate with the static IP address of the first baseboard management controller. As only the second baseboard management controller is configured with the dynamic IP address, the number of the IP addresses needing dynamic management is small, too many computing resources do not need to be allocated for management of the IP addresses, and efficient management of the IP addresses of a server BMC, network card equipment and the like can be achieved.
