[0067] The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0068] To better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0069] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present application without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0070] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application. The singular forms of "a", "the" and "said" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0071] It should be understood that the term " / and" used herein is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, a and / or b can represent: a exists alone, a and b exist simultaneously, and b exists alone. In addition, the character " / " herein generally represents an "or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0072] The inventor's research found that with the development of whole-house intelligence, improving the delivery efficiency of whole-house installation and maintenance has become the focus of the entire whole-house intelligence industry. There is no uplink network for the equipment during the installation and maintenance stage, but the equipment needs to be upgraded. Therefore, for the upgrade, the installation and maintenance engineer needs to carry a CPE to the installation and maintenance site. When the operator network signal at the installation and maintenance site is poor or there is no signal, the upgrade success rate of intelligent devices will be extremely low, seriously affecting the efficiency of whole-house installation and maintenance.

[0073] As Figure 1A shown, the specific implementation in the related technology for whole-house installation and maintenance is as follows: The intelligent device to be upgraded is connected to the management cloud / gateway, and then the technician logs in to the management cloud / gateway through the installation and maintenance application; after the login is successful, the management cloud / gateway will feedback a connection success signal. After the technician receives the login success signal, the upgrade command is issued through the installation and maintenance application. The upgrade command is sent to the intelligent device through the management cloud / gateway; after the intelligent device receives the upgrade command sent by the management cloud / gateway, it downloads the device upgrade package from the server through the preset download address and upgrades the device according to the device upgrade package; after the intelligent device finishes the upgrade, it reports the upgrade result to the management cloud / gateway, and the management cloud / gateway prompts the technician of the upgrade result of the intelligent device through the installation and maintenance application.

[0074] In the related art, when performing whole-house installation and maintenance, it relies on the upstream network and depends on intelligent devices to connect to the upgrade server for upgrading. If the intelligent device has no upstream network, it cannot be upgraded. Moreover, it depends on the upgrade operation to log in to the management cloud of the device or the gateway device through the installation and maintenance application. Only one account or the intelligent devices under the gateway can be upgraded at a time. In the scenario of whole-house delivery, even if there is an upstream network, the quality and bandwidth of the upstream network will affect the upgrade efficiency of the devices.

[0075] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a device upgrade method, device, equipment, and storage medium to solve the above problems. The inventive concept of the present application can be summarized as: in response to an upgrade instruction, send a first message; receive response packets sent by at least one intelligent device; based on the received response packets, determine at least one first intelligent device; and send the first address to the first intelligent device, where the first address is used to indicate the storage address of the device upgrade package of the first intelligent device stored in the terminal device. In the embodiments of the present application, only the first address is sent to the first intelligent device, avoiding the waste of resources caused by sending addresses to all intelligent devices. In the present application, the first intelligent device can download the device upgrade package from the terminal device without going through the upstream network, and multiple first intelligent devices can download the device upgrade package simultaneously for upgrading, improving the upgrade efficiency of the intelligent devices.

[0076] As Figure 1B shown, it is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of an upgrade method provided by an embodiment of the present application, which includes: technician 10, terminal device 20, intelligent devices 30, and intelligent devices 30 include first intelligent devices 301 and other intelligent devices 302; where:

[0077] The terminal device 20, in response to the upgrade instruction triggered by the technician 10, sends a first message; receives response packets sent by at least one intelligent device 30; based on the received response packets, determines at least one first intelligent device 301; and sends the first address to the first intelligent device 301, where the first address is used to indicate the storage address of the device upgrade package of the first intelligent device 301 stored in the terminal device 20.

[0078] As Figure 2 shown, it is a schematic flowchart of a device upgrade method provided by an embodiment of the present application, and the execution entity is the terminal device, where:

[0079] In step 201: In response to the upgrade instruction, send a first message.

[0080] In this application, a technician can trigger an upgrade instruction in a terminal device. If the technician triggers the upgrade instruction, it indicates that there is an intelligent device to be upgraded. Therefore, after the technician triggers the upgrade instruction, the terminal device first responds to the upgrade instruction and scans within a preset range to detect the intelligent device, and then sends a first message to the detected intelligent device.

[0081] In some possible embodiments, in order to enable communication between the intelligent device and the terminal device without going through the uplink network, therefore, in response to the upgrade instruction, the intelligent devices within the preset range are scanned. Specifically, it can be implemented as: in response to the upgrade instruction, the preset range corresponding to the local area network connected to the terminal device is scanned to detect the intelligent devices within the preset range. That is, in this application, the communication between the terminal device and the intelligent device can be achieved through the local area network without going through the uplink network. When the terminal device performs the scan, it only scans the local area network it is connected to and regards the devices scanned in this local area network as the intelligent devices within the detected preset range.

[0082] In some possible embodiments, the terminal device first needs to generate a first message before sending the first message. When generating the first message, it can be generated based on a preset list of intelligent devices. That is, in this application, the first message carries the list of intelligent devices, and the list of intelligent devices is used to match the intelligent device that sends the response packet.

[0083] It should be noted that when generating the first message based on the list of intelligent devices, a part of the data packet corresponding to the first message can be used to carry the list of intelligent devices, or a new field can be added to the data packet corresponding to the first message to carry the list of intelligent devices. This application does not limit the way the first message carries the list of intelligent devices.

[0084] In this application, by carrying the list of intelligent devices in the first message, the intelligent device can determine whether to send a response packet according to the list of intelligent devices. Among them, the list of intelligent devices records the identification information of at least one intelligent device to be connected to the terminal device.

[0085] That is, in this application, in order to reduce waste of resources, a list of intelligent devices is set. The identification information of the intelligent devices recorded in the list of intelligent devices is the identification information of the intelligent devices that need to be connected to the terminal device. Therefore, after generating the first message according to the list of intelligent devices, the intelligent device can confirm whether it needs to be connected to the terminal device according to the list of intelligent devices carried in the first message. If it needs to be connected to the terminal device, it sends a response packet to the terminal device, and if it does not need to be connected to the terminal device, it does not need to send a response packet to the terminal device.

[0086] In step 202: Receive response packets sent by at least one intelligent device.

[0087] In this application, after the intelligent device receives the communication connection request sent by the terminal device, the intelligent device will send a response packet so that the terminal device can determine the first intelligent device according to the response packet.

[0088] In step 203: Based on the received response packet, determine at least one first intelligent device.

[0089] Since there may be intelligent devices that do not need to be upgraded among the intelligent devices scanned by the terminal device, in order to avoid wasting resources caused by interacting with intelligent devices that do not need to be upgraded, it is necessary to determine the first intelligent device.

[0090] In some possible embodiments, based on the received response packet, determining at least one first intelligent device can be specifically implemented as the steps shown in Figure 3 as follows, where:

[0091] In step 301: Obtain the second address carried in the response packet.

[0092] In some possible embodiments, the second address may be the MAC (Media Access Control Address) address of the intelligent device, or may be other addresses that uniquely identify the intelligent device. This application does not make any limitations in this regard.

[0093] It should be noted that a part of the fields in the response packet can be used to carry the second address, or a new field can be added to the response packet to carry the second address. This application does not make any limitations on the way the response packet carries the second address.

[0094] In step 302: Based on the second address, determine that the intelligent device is the first intelligent device.

[0095] That is, in this application, it can be determined whether the first intelligent device is the first intelligent device based on the second address.

[0096] For example: The terminal device receives the response packets sent by intelligent device 1, intelligent device 2, and intelligent device 3; based on the second address in the response packet, it is determined that the first intelligent devices include intelligent device 1 and intelligent device 2. Then the terminal device sends the first address to intelligent device 1 and intelligent device 2 so that intelligent device 1 and intelligent device 2 can download the device upgrade package from the terminal device according to the first address and perform device upgrade.

[0097] In some possible embodiments, when determining whether an intelligent device is the first intelligent device based on the second address, it can be specifically implemented as the steps shown in Figure 4A as follows:

[0098] Step 401: Compare the second address of the intelligent device with the second address in the preset whitelist.

[0099] That is, in this application, the terminal device compares the second address of the intelligent device obtained with the second address in the preset whitelist stored in advance.

[0100] In order to reduce the time consumed in the device upgrade stage, before upgrading the device, that is, before the technician triggers the upgrade instruction based on the terminal device, first implement: obtain the preset whitelist and store the preset whitelist. Among them, the preset whitelist is constructed by the technician according to the second address of the device to be upgraded.

[0101] Step 402: If the second address of the intelligent device exists in the preset whitelist, it is determined that the intelligent device is in the preset whitelist.

[0102] Step 403: If the second address of the intelligent device does not exist in the preset whitelist, it is determined that the intelligent device is not in the preset whitelist.

[0103] For example: The preset whitelist includes: the second address of intelligent device 1, the second address of intelligent device 2, the second address of intelligent device 3. The intelligent devices scanned by the terminal device include: intelligent device 1, intelligent device 2, intelligent device 3, intelligent device 4. Then it can be determined that intelligent device 1 is in the preset whitelist, intelligent device 2 is in the preset whitelist, intelligent device 3 is in the preset whitelist, and intelligent device 4 is not in the preset whitelist.

[0104] In some other possible embodiments, in addition to determining whether the intelligent device is the first intelligent device according to the second address, it is also possible to determine whether the intelligent device is the first intelligent device according to the device identifier of the intelligent device. Specifically, it can be implemented as Figure 4B shown in the steps, where:

[0105] In step 411: Obtain the identification information carried in the response packet.

[0106] In this application, there is no limitation on the identification information of the device. As long as the information that can uniquely identify the intelligent device can be used as the identification information of the intelligent device in this application. For example: the identity identification of the device, the device name, etc.

[0107] In step 412: Compare the identification information of the intelligent device with the identification information in the preset whitelist.

[0108] That is, in this application, the terminal device compares the identification information of the intelligent device obtained with the identification information in the preset whitelist stored in advance.

[0109] In order to reduce the time consumed during the device upgrade phase, before upgrading the device, that is, before the technician triggers the upgrade instruction based on the terminal device, the following is implemented first: obtaining a preset whitelist and storing the preset whitelist.

[0110] It should be noted that the preset whitelist is constructed by the technician according to the identification information of the device to be upgraded.

[0111] In step 413: If the identification information of the intelligent device exists in the preset whitelist, it is determined that the intelligent device is in the preset whitelist.

[0112] In step 414: If the identification information of the intelligent device does not exist in the preset whitelist, it is determined that the intelligent device is not in the preset whitelist.

[0113] For example: The preset whitelist includes: the identification information of intelligent device 1, the identification information of intelligent device 2, the identification information of intelligent device 3, and the intelligent devices scanned by the terminal device include: intelligent device 1, intelligent device 2, intelligent device 3, and intelligent device 4. Then it can be determined that intelligent device 1 is in the preset whitelist, intelligent device 2 is in the preset whitelist, intelligent device 3 is in the preset whitelist, and intelligent device 4 is not in the preset whitelist.

[0114] In this application, a preset whitelist is set based on the identification information of the intelligent device to be upgraded, and the device identification of the intelligent device to be upgraded is recorded in the preset whitelist. That is, when it is determined that the intelligent device is in the preset whitelist, it indicates that the intelligent device is the intelligent device to be upgraded. Therefore, only the first address needs to be sent to the intelligent devices in the preset whitelist.

[0115] In the embodiment of this application, in order to realize the communication between the first intelligent device and the terminal device, after the first intelligent device is determined, a communication connection needs to be established with the first intelligent device based on the second address of the first intelligent device, and the communication connection is used for the communication between the first intelligent device and the terminal device.

[0116] Since the operator network signal at the installation and maintenance site is very poor, or the lack of signal will lead to low upgrade efficiency of the intelligent device. Therefore, in this application, when the terminal device establishes communication with the intelligent device, it can be implemented as: establishing a communication connection with the first intelligent device based on the SPEKE protocol and the second address; or, establishing a communication connection with the first intelligent device based on the Bluetooth protocol and the second address.

[0117] In step 204: The first address is sent to the first intelligent device, and the first address is used to indicate the storage address of the device upgrade package of the first intelligent device stored in the terminal device.

[0118] In order to ensure that the intelligent device can accurately obtain the device upgrade package, therefore, in this application, it can be adopted asFigure 5 Generate the first address according to the steps shown below:

[0119] In step 501: Determine the local port, local address, and the storage path of the device upgrade package.

[0120] In this application, in order to further improve the upgrade efficiency of the intelligent device, before upgrading the intelligent device, it is first necessary to download the device upgrade package and store the device upgrade package.

[0121] It should be noted that when the terminal device downloads the device upgrade package, in order to avoid reducing the number of downloads and achieve one-time download and multiple uses, the full amount of the device upgrade package can be downloaded at one time. If it is to reduce the resources consumed when downloading the device upgrade package, only the device upgrade packages of the intelligent devices in the preset whitelist can be downloaded. This application does not limit this.

[0122] In step 502: Generate the first address based on the local port, local address, and storage path.

[0123] In this application, the first address generated by the terminal device through the local port, local address, and storage path can ensure that the intelligent device accurately finds the device upgrade package according to the first address and downloads it.

[0124] In order to ensure that technicians can understand the upgrade status of the intelligent device in real time, the following implementation methods are set in this application: Figure 6 As shown below:

[0125] In step 601: Respond to the upgrade instruction and send the first message.

[0126] The specific implementation method of this step is the same as that of step 201, and will not be elaborated here.

[0127] In step 602: Receive response packets sent by at least one intelligent device.

[0128] The specific implementation method of this step is the same as that of step 202, and will not be elaborated here.

[0129] In step 603: Based on the received response packets, determine at least one first intelligent device.

[0130] The specific implementation method of this step is the same as that of step 203, and will not be elaborated here.

[0131] In step 604: Send the first address to the first intelligent device, where the first address is used to indicate the storage address of the device upgrade package of the first intelligent device stored in the terminal device.

[0132] The specific implementation of this step is the same as that of step 204, and will not be elaborated here.

[0133] In step 605: Receive the upgrade progress sent by the intelligent device and display the upgrade progress.

[0134] In this application, the terminal device receives the upgrade progress sent by each intelligent device and displays it to the user. The user can intuitively understand the upgrade progress of each intelligent device from the upgrade progress displayed by the terminal device.

[0135] For example: If the terminal device receives that the upgrade progress sent by intelligent device 1 is 10%, the upgrade progress sent by intelligent device 2 is 15%, and the upgrade progress sent by intelligent device 3 is 15%, then the display of the upgrade progress of the intelligent devices is as Figure 7 shown.

[0136] In some possible embodiments, intelligent devices in two relatively distant areas may need to be upgraded simultaneously. In this case, in order to save the upgrade time of the intelligent devices, for each area, a technician can select an intelligent device with sufficient resources from the intelligent devices as the second intelligent device. For example, if it is determined that the intelligent devices with sufficient resources include routers, switches, hosts, and central control screens, any one of them can be selected as the second intelligent device. Then, use the second intelligent device to perform device upgrade on the first intelligent device.

[0137] In some possible embodiments, when using the second device to upgrade the first intelligent device, after the terminal device obtains the preset whitelist, it needs to send the preset whitelist to the second intelligent device. Similarly, after the terminal device obtains the device upgrade package, it also needs to send the device upgrade package to the second intelligent device.

[0138] That is, in this application, when the intelligent device has a need for device upgrade, the terminal device can pre-download the device upgrade package from the server through the uplink network and obtain the preset whitelist; then send the preset whitelist and the device upgrade package to the second intelligent device through the terminal device. By this method, the device upgrade efficiency will not be affected when the uplink network quality at the installation and maintenance site is poor, and the intelligent devices in multiple areas can be upgraded simultaneously.

[0139] It should be noted that the process of using the second intelligent device to perform device upgrade on the intelligent device is the same as the Figure 2 steps shown, and will not be elaborated here.

[0140] In summary, the device upgrade method provided by the embodiments of the present application does not require an uplink network and only needs a local area network or a Bluetooth connection to complete the upgrade of intelligent devices. Moreover, the device upgrade method provided by the embodiments of the present application does not require logging in to the management cloud / gateway of the device. The terminal device can directly connect to the intelligent device to issue the first address, and then complete the upgrade of the intelligent device, making the device upgrade more efficient and reliable.

[0141] The embodiments of the present application further provide a device upgrade method, and the execution subject is an intelligent device, as Figure 8 shown, wherein:

[0142] In step 801: Receive a first message sent by the terminal device and generate a response packet.

[0143] In some possible embodiments, the first message sent by the terminal device carries a list of intelligent devices, and the list of intelligent devices records the identification information of at least one intelligent device to be connected to the terminal device. The list of intelligent devices is used to match the intelligent device that sends the response packet. Therefore, after the intelligent device receives the communication connection request, it can compare its own identification information with the identification information of the intelligent devices in the list of intelligent devices to determine whether it is in the list of intelligent devices. If the intelligent device determines that its own identification information is in the list of intelligent devices, it means that the intelligent device needs to establish a communication connection with the terminal device. To facilitate establishing a communication connection with the terminal device, the intelligent device generates a response packet based on its own second address.

[0144] In step 802: Send the response packet to the terminal device.

[0145] After the intelligent device sends the response packet to the terminal device, the terminal device will determine whether the intelligent device is the first intelligent device according to the second address in the response packet. When the terminal device determines that the intelligent device is the first intelligent device, it will establish a communication connection with the intelligent device and then send the first address to the intelligent device.

[0146] Since the operator network signal at the installation and maintenance site is very poor or there is no signal, which will lead to low upgrade efficiency of intelligent devices. Therefore, in some possible embodiments, the establishment of a communication connection between the intelligent device and the terminal device based on the second address is specifically implemented as: establishing a communication connection with the terminal device based on the SPEKE protocol and the second address; or, establishing a communication connection with the terminal device based on the Bluetooth protocol and the second address.

[0147] In step 803: Receive the first address sent by the terminal device and download the device upgrade package from the terminal device; the first address is used to indicate the storage address of the device upgrade package of the first intelligent device in the terminal device.

[0148] In this application, if the intelligent device receives the first address sent by the terminal device, it indicates that the intelligent device has established a communication connection with the terminal device and has a requirement for device upgrade. The intelligent device then downloads the device upgrade package according to the received first address.

[0149] In some possible embodiments, if the intelligent device receives an upgrade instruction sent by the terminal device, the intelligent device needs to obtain the first address from the upgrade instruction. The intelligent device can determine to start the steps of device upgrade according to the upgrade instruction, and can accurately download the device upgrade package through the first address to perform device upgrade.

[0150] In step 804: Perform device upgrade based on the device upgrade package.

[0151] In order to ensure that technicians can understand the upgrade situation of the intelligent device in real time, therefore, during the implementation of the steps as Figure 8 shown, the steps as Figure 9 shown can be implemented, where:

[0152] In step 901: Determine the upgrade progress according to a preset period.

[0153] In step 902: Send the upgrade progress to the terminal device according to a preset period.

[0154] In this application, the terminal device receives the upgrade progress sent by each intelligent device according to a preset period and displays it to the user. The user can intuitively understand the upgrade progress of each intelligent device through the upgrade progress displayed by the terminal device.
