[0002] In a specific network environment, various types of network devices (such as switches, routers, firewalls, etc.) from different manufacturers are usually used. These network devices come from different manufacturers and may use different communication protocols, data formats, and management interfaces. This leads to many challenges for network managers, such as how to centrally manage these heterogeneous devices, how to achieve unified monitoring and configuration management, and how to ensure the coordination between various devices. At this time, network management software plays a huge role. In order to facilitate people to manage various different devices, network management software needs to have the ability to connect to various third-party manufacturers' devices.

Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments recorded in this application. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can also be obtained based on these drawings of the embodiments of the present application.

[0065] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, rather than limiting the present application. The singular forms of "a", "said" and "the" used in the present application and claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings. It should also be understood that the term "and / or" used herein refers to any or all possible combinations of one or more associated listed items.

[0066] It should be understood that, although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used to describe various information in the embodiments of the present application, these information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the present application, the first information may also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as the first information. Depending on the context, in addition, the word "if" used may be interpreted as "at..." or "when..." or "in response to determination".

[0067] At present, when third-party devices of different manufacturers / types are uniformly managed, they are adapted at the business code layer. When there are third-party devices, the business module directly hard-codes the netconf xml of the specific business configuration. This is also the most commonly used and most direct method of adapting and connecting third-party devices.

[0068] The above method can fully meet the requirements of docking with third-party devices, unifying the business management interface, and unifying the northbound Restful interface. However, in order to achieve these goals, the solution needs to hard-code different processing methods for different devices in the business logic. This requires developers to understand the different configuration models of different manufacturers and different devices, and develop different business codes according to the different configuration models of different devices. In addition, every time a new third-party manufacturer's device is adapted, the code must be redeveloped and the version must be released.

[0069] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for users to upload a universal yang model and obtain the device yang model to be configured, as well as a mapping relationship between the universal yang model configured by the user and parameter nodes of different device yangs, combined with the yang converter function, to jointly realize a solution for flexible connection with third-party devices of other manufacturers.

[0070] For example, see Figure 1 As shown, it is a detailed flow chart of a device configuration method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to a controller, and a general configuration description file and device configuration description files of various types of devices are maintained on the controller. The mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the device configuration of each type of device and each parameter node included in the general configuration is pre-configured on the controller; the method includes the following steps:

[0071] Step 100: Obtain device type information of a target device and parameter values ​​of each parameter node of the target device to be configured.

[0072] In the embodiment of the present application, the general configuration description file can be a general yang model including various parameter nodes customized by the user, and the device configuration description file of each type of device is a device yang model including various parameter nodes required to be configured by the device. The general yang model refers to a yang model that describes the device node parameters customized by the user, which is universal and not limited to any manufacturer or any device type.

[0073] Preferably, the general configuration description file is displayed to the user in the form of a user configuration interface, and the configuration interface includes a device selection option to be configured and an input box for each parameter node included in the general configuration description file.

[0074] That is, the configuration interface includes a parameter input box corresponding to each parameter node included in the general configuration description, and the user can configure the value of each parameter node in the corresponding input box.

[0075] Correspondingly, when acquiring the device type information of the target device and the parameter values ​​of each parameter node of the target device to be configured, a preferred implementation method is:

[0076] The device type information of the target device and the parameter values ​​of each parameter node of the target device to be configured are received by the user through the configuration interface.

[0077] In actual applications, when a new network device (such as a target device) is added to the managed network, the controller detects that the new network device has joined the network.

[0078] That is, in the embodiment of the present application, before executing step 100, the device configuration method may further include the following steps:

[0079] When it is detected that the target device is connected to the network, the device type information of the target device is obtained; it is determined whether there is a device configuration description file corresponding to the device type of the target device locally; when it is determined that there is no device configuration description file corresponding to the device type of the target device locally, the device configuration description file of the target device is obtained from the target device, and a mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the device configuration of the target device and each parameter node included in the general configuration is established.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present application, the configuration interface also includes a parameter node mapping configuration page for establishing a mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the device configuration and the general configuration. Then, when establishing a mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the device configuration of the target device and each parameter node included in the general configuration, a preferred implementation method is:

[0081] Parse the device configuration description file of the target device to obtain the parameter nodes included in the device configuration of the target device and display them to the user; establish a mapping relationship between the parameter nodes included in the device configuration of the target device and the parameter nodes included in the general configuration based on the correspondence between the parameter nodes included in the device configuration of the target device and the parameter nodes included in the general configuration defined by the user through the parameter node mapping configuration interface.

[0082] Exemplarily, referring to Table 1, a mapping relationship between various parameter nodes included in a device configuration description file and various parameter nodes included in a general configuration description file provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0083]

[0084] Table 1

[0085] Specifically, the controller can obtain a device configuration description file corresponding to the target device from the target device, then parse the device configuration description file to obtain information of each parameter node included in the device configuration description file, and display the information of each parameter node to the user. The user configures the association relationship between each parameter node included in the device configuration description file and each parameter node included in the general configuration description file based on experience, and establishes a mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the device configuration and each parameter node included in the general configuration.

[0086] It should be noted that the mapping relationship also includes the device type information of the target device, that is, the corresponding mapping relationship can be found through the device type of the target device.

[0087] Step 110: Based on the device type of the target device, determine the target mapping relationship between the parameter nodes included in the target device configuration corresponding to the target device and the parameter nodes included in the general configuration from the mapping relationship between the parameter nodes included in the device configuration of each type of device and the parameter nodes included in the general configuration.

[0088] Specifically, the user selects the target device to be configured through the configuration interface, that is, selects the device type of the target device to be configured. The controller determines, based on the device type of the target device, the target mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the target device configuration corresponding to the target device and each parameter node included in the general configuration from the locally maintained mapping table.

[0089] Step 120: Generate a data configuration file for configuring the target device based on the parameter values ​​of the parameter nodes of the target device and the target mapping relationship.

[0090] In actual applications, the parameter node input boxes displayed on the configuration interface are associated with the parameter nodes included in the general configuration, that is, the values ​​of the input parameter nodes correspond to the values ​​of the corresponding parameter nodes included in the general configuration.

[0091] Then, after determining the target mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the target device configuration corresponding to the target device and each parameter node included in the general configuration, the controller can establish an association relationship between the parameter value of each parameter node and each parameter node included in the target device configuration according to the first relationship between the parameter value of each parameter node input by the user through the configuration page and the parameter nodes included in the general configuration, and the second relationship between the parameter nodes included in the general configuration and the parameter nodes included in the target device configuration.

[0092] In this way, the controller can generate a data configuration file for configuring the target device according to the parameter value of each parameter node and the target device configuration description file.

[0093] In the embodiment of the present application, a preferred implementation is that the general configuration description file is a general yang model including each parameter node customized by the user, and the device configuration description file of each type of device is a device yang model including each parameter node required to be configured by the device. Then, when generating a data configuration file for configuring the target device based on the parameter values ​​of each parameter node of the target device and the target mapping relationship, a preferred implementation is:

[0094] Based on the target mapping relationship, a device yang model corresponding to the target device is determined; and through a yang converter, a netconf xml configuration of the target device is generated based on parameter values ​​of each parameter node of the target device and the device yang model corresponding to the target device.

[0095] Step 130: Send the data configuration file to the target device.

[0096] The controller sends the device configuration file in XML format to the target device, so that the target device performs configuration based on the received device configuration file in XML format.

[0097] The following describes in detail the device configuration delivery process provided by the embodiment of the present application in combination with specific application scenarios. Figure 2 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of a device configuration delivery process provided in an embodiment of the present application, and the configuration delivery process is as follows:

[0098] 1) Generate UI configuration interface based on the general yang model.

[0099] The UI configuration interface is to display the nodes of Yang that need to be configured with user data so that users can fill in the corresponding data of each node. As can be seen from the above, since the UI configuration interface is a configuration interface generated based on the general Yang model, it is irrelevant to different manufacturers / types of equipment.

[0100] 2) The user enters data according to the UI configuration interface.

[0101] For example, index is 1 / 1 / 1, IP is 192.168.0.1, and mask is 255.255.255.0.

[0102] 3) According to the mapping table, the system automatically searches for the yang node of device 1 corresponding to the general yang node.

[0103] 4) The system automatically binds the user configuration data to the device's yang node.

[0104] 5) The Yang converter generates the XML configuration of device 1 based on the Yang model of device 1 and the user configuration data.

[0105] 6) The system sends the XML configuration to device 1 through the netconf sending module.

[0106] The system's configuration delivery process for device 2 is the same as that for device 1, except that when device 2 is selected, the parameter node mapping relationship between the yang model of device 2 and the general yang model is searched. Then the yang converter generates the xml configuration of device 2 based on the yang model of device 2 and the user data bound to the yang node of device 2, and delivers it to device 2.

[0107] In actual applications, when generating northbound Restful interfaces, you can also directly use the general yang model, which is independent of the yang models of each device. Therefore, northbound external system calls are unified and standardized. This realizes standardized calls to external systems.

[0108] Based on the same inventive concept as the above-mentioned embodiment of the invention, for example, refer to Figure 3, which is a schematic diagram of the structure of a device configuration apparatus provided in an embodiment of the present application, the apparatus is applied to a controller, the controller maintains a general configuration description file and device configuration description files of various types of devices, and the controller is pre-configured with a mapping relationship between each parameter node included in the device configuration of each type of device and each parameter node included in the general configuration; the apparatus includes:
