Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a device configuration method, apparatus, system, device, and medium. Background Technology

[0002] OpenVPN is an application-layer VPN implementation based on the OpenSSL library. It creates a virtual network interface between the client and the target server, encapsulates user data in VPN protocol packets, and then transmits them to the target server over the Internet, thereby achieving secure data transmission and access control.

[0003] When equipment deployed on-site encounters problems, it is usually necessary for R&D personnel or operations and maintenance personnel to remotely access the equipment, which has already imported the OpenVPN client configuration file, using VPN to troubleshoot.

[0004] However, since the OpenVPN client configuration file is different for each device, it cannot be included in a unified firmware package. If it were imported during the device production stage, an additional step of generating the configuration file and installing it into the device would be required, which is cumbersome and increases manufacturing time.

[0005] Therefore, a device configuration method is needed to achieve zero-configuration management of devices. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this disclosure provides a device configuration method, apparatus, system, device, and medium that establishes a cloud management platform between the device and the OpenVPN server, enabling remote zero-configuration management of the device.

[0007] Firstly, a device configuration method is provided, including: When a device to be configured, whether to be deployed or already deployed on-site, detects that no configuration file is available for remote maintenance, it sends a configuration file request carrying the device's serial number to the cloud management platform. When the cloud management platform determines that there is no configuration file corresponding to the device SN number on the local machine, it sends a request to the OpenVPN server to generate a configuration file carrying the device SN number. The OpenVPN server uses the device SN number carried in the configuration file generation request to generate a configuration file for the device to be configured, assigns a fixed IP address to the device to be configured that uses the configuration file, and sends the configuration file and the fixed IP address to the cloud management platform. The cloud management platform stores the configuration file and the fixed IP address; The cloud management platform sends a confirmation message containing the configuration file to the device to be configured; The device to be configured receives the confirmation information and stores the configuration file.

[0008] Furthermore, after the device to be configured receives the confirmation information and stores the configuration file, the following steps are also included: The device to be configured starts an OpenVPN client based on the configuration file and sends an OpenVPN connection request, including the device's serial number, to the OpenVPN server based on the server address in the configuration file. The OpenVPN server determines a fixed IP address allocation based on the SN number of the device to be configured in the OpenVPN connection request and sends it to the device to be configured. The device to be configured establishes a connection with OpenVPN using the assigned fixed IP address.

[0009] Furthermore, the cloud management platform determines that a configuration file corresponding to the device SN number does not exist locally, including: The cloud management platform searches for all device serial numbers (SNs) contained in the pre-stored configuration file mapping relationship to determine whether the device SN of the device to be configured exists therein; wherein the configuration file mapping relationship is a mapping relationship between the device SN, the configuration file, and the fixed IP address, and is stored therein; If not, then it is determined that the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number does not exist locally.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes: If the cloud management platform searches for all device serial numbers included in the pre-stored configuration file mapping relationship and determines that the device serial number of the device to be configured exists therein, then it further determines the configuration file corresponding to the device serial number of the device to be configured. The cloud management platform obtains the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number based on the configuration file mapping relationship, and sends a confirmation message carrying the configuration file to the device to be configured.

[0011] Furthermore, After storing the configuration file and the fixed IP address on the cloud management platform, the method further includes: The cloud management platform establishes and stores the mapping relationship between the device serial number, configuration file, and fixed IP address.

[0012] Secondly, a device configuration method is provided for use in a cloud management platform, including: Receive a configuration file request carrying the device serial number of the device to be configured from a device to be deployed or already deployed on site; If it is determined that there is no configuration file corresponding to the device SN number on the local machine, a request to generate a configuration file carrying the device SN number is sent to the OpenVPN server. Receive the configuration file and fixed IP address returned by the OpenVPN server; Store the configuration file and the fixed IP address; Send a confirmation message containing the configuration file to the device to be configured.

[0013] Further, determining that a configuration file corresponding to the device SN number does not exist locally includes: Locate all device serial numbers (SNs) included in the pre-stored configuration file mapping relationships, and determine whether the device SN of the device to be configured exists among them; wherein the configuration file mapping relationship is a mapping relationship between device SN, configuration file, and fixed IP address, and store it. If not, then it is determined that the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number does not exist locally.

[0014] Furthermore, it also includes: If all device serial numbers contained in the pre-stored configuration file mapping relationship are searched, it is determined that the device serial number of the device to be configured exists therein, and the configuration file corresponding to the device serial number of the device to be configured is further determined; Based on the configuration file mapping relationship, the configuration file corresponding to the device SN is obtained, and a confirmation message carrying the configuration file is sent to the device to be configured.

[0015] Furthermore, after storing the configuration file and the fixed IP address, the method further includes: Establish and store the mapping relationship between the device serial number, configuration file, and fixed IP address.

[0016] Thirdly, a device configuration system is provided, comprising: a device to be deployed or already deployed on-site, a cloud management platform, and an OpenVPN server; wherein: The device to be configured, whether to be deployed or already deployed on-site, is used to send a configuration file request carrying the device SN number of the device to be configured to the cloud management platform when it is found that there is no configuration file required for remote maintenance, and to receive the confirmation information and store the configuration file. The cloud management platform is used to send a request to the OpenVPN server to generate a configuration file carrying the device SN when it is determined that a configuration file corresponding to the device SN does not exist locally, and to store the configuration file; and to send confirmation information containing the configuration file to the device to be configured. An OpenVPN server is used to generate a configuration file for the device to be configured using the device serial number carried in the configuration file generation request, assign a fixed IP address to the device to be configured using the configuration file, and send the configuration file and the fixed IP address to the cloud management platform.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, this disclosure has the following advantages: 1. In the solution disclosed herein, a cloud management platform is built between the device to be configured and the OpenVPN server. No configuration file needs to be added when the device leaves the factory. Instead, when the device is installed and connected to the network for the first time, the OpenVPN server automatically generates the OpenVPN client configuration file based on the device's serial number. Through the interaction between the OpenVPN server and the cloud management server, the configuration file and the fixed IP address are stored on the cloud management server. This allows the device to obtain the configuration file from the cloud management platform at any time, solving the problem of zero-configuration management of the device, reducing one step in the device manufacturing process, and reducing labor time. 2. When remote access to the device is required, the device's fixed IP address can be directly queried through the device's serial number on the cloud management platform. Then, by running an OpenVPN client on a personal computer, the device can be accessed directly, thereby enabling remote maintenance of the device.

[0023] Other features and advantages of this disclosure will be set forth in the description which follows, and will be apparent in part from the description, or may be learned by practicing the disclosure.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0027] When embedded devices deployed in the field encounter problems, R&D or maintenance personnel may need to log in to troubleshoot. However, in most cases, embedded devices are deployed in an intranet environment, and the common solution in this situation is remote device access. This solution is particularly suitable for scenarios where embedded devices deployed in an intranet are remotely accessed using OpenVPN. The following explanation uses an embedded device as an example.

[0028] like Figure 1 The diagram shown is a flowchart of a device configuration method according to an embodiment of this disclosure, including the following steps: Step 101: When the device to be deployed or already deployed on-site detects that there is no configuration file required for remote maintenance, it sends a configuration file request carrying the device SN number of the device to be configured to the cloud management platform. The aforementioned SN number is an identifying parameter of the device.

[0029] Step 102: When the cloud management platform determines that there is no configuration file corresponding to the device SN number on the local machine, it sends a request to the OpenVPN server to generate a configuration file carrying the device SN number. Specifically, the cloud management platform determines that a configuration file corresponding to the device SN number does not exist locally, including: The cloud management platform searches for all device serial numbers (SNs) contained in the pre-stored configuration file mapping relationship to determine whether the device SN of the device to be configured exists therein; wherein the configuration file mapping relationship is a mapping relationship between the device SN, the configuration file, and the fixed IP address, and is stored therein; If not, then it is determined that the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number does not exist locally.

[0030] If so, it is determined that the device SN of the device to be configured exists therein, and the configuration file corresponding to the device SN of the device to be configured is further determined; the configuration file corresponding to the device SN is obtained based on the configuration file mapping relationship, and a confirmation message carrying the configuration file is sent to the device to be configured.

[0031] Step 103: The OpenVPN server uses the device SN number carried in the configuration file generation request to generate a configuration file for the device to be configured, assigns a fixed IP address to the device to be configured that uses the configuration file, and sends the configuration file and the fixed IP address to the cloud management platform. Step 104: The cloud management platform stores the configuration file and the fixed IP address; Step 105: The cloud management platform sends a confirmation message containing the configuration file to the device to be configured; Step 106: The device to be configured receives the confirmation information and stores the configuration file.

[0032] In the solution disclosed herein, upon request from the server to be configured, the OpenVPN server automatically generates a configuration file for the OpenVPN client based on the device's serial number. Through the interaction between the OpenVPN server and the cloud management server, the configuration file is stored on the cloud management server, enabling the device to be configured to obtain the configuration file from the cloud management platform at any time, both now and in the future, thus achieving zero-configuration management of the device.

[0033] The preferred embodiments of this disclosure are described below: Figure 2 This diagram illustrates an interaction between device configuration systems according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The interaction process demonstrates a device configuration method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, including the following steps: Step 201: When the device starts up, it checks whether the OpenVPN client configuration file exists in the specified directory. If it does, proceed to step 209; otherwise, proceed to step 202. Specifically, each time an embedded device, whether to be deployed or already deployed in the field, starts up, its internal daemon checks whether the OpenVPN client configuration file exists in a specified directory.

[0034] Step 202: The device sends a configuration file request carrying the device's serial number to the cloud management platform; Step 203: The cloud management platform searches for the mapping relationship of local storage. If it is not found, proceed to step 204; if it is found, proceed to step 208. Specifically, the cloud management platform receives a configuration file request from the embedded device, parses the SN number in the configuration file request, and then looks up the mapping relationship between the locally stored device SN number, configuration file, and fixed IP address.

[0035] Step 204: The cloud management platform sends a request to the OpenVPN server to generate a configuration file carrying the device serial number; then proceed to step 205. Step 205: The OpenVPN server uses the device SN number carried in the configuration file generation request to generate a configuration file for the embedded device, assigns a fixed IP address to the device using the configuration file, and binds the configuration file and the fixed IP address, or binds the device SN number, configuration file and fixed IP address; then proceed to step 206; Step 206: The OpenVPN server returns the configuration file and the fixed IP address to the cloud management platform; then proceed to step 207. Step 207: The cloud management platform stores the configuration file, establishes and stores the mapping relationship between the device serial number, the configuration file and the fixed IP address; then proceed to step 208. Step 208: The cloud management platform sends confirmation information to the device, carrying the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number in the configuration file request; then proceeds to step 209; Step 209: The embedded device stores and uses the configuration file to start the OpenVPN client, thus completing the remote maintenance of the device startup.

[0036] Furthermore, following 209, the method further includes: The device to be configured starts an OpenVPN client based on the configuration file and sends an OpenVPN connection request, including the device's serial number, to the OpenVPN server based on the server address in the configuration file. The OpenVPN server determines a fixed IP address allocation based on the SN number of the device to be configured in the OpenVPN connection request and sends it to the device to be configured. The device to be configured establishes a connection with OpenVPN using the assigned fixed IP address.

[0037] Based on the above method, this disclosure also provides a device configuration method applied to a cloud management platform, such as...

If not, then it is determined that the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number does not exist locally; If so, it is determined that a configuration file corresponding to the device SN number exists locally, and the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number of the device to be configured is further determined; the configuration file corresponding to the device SN number is obtained based on the configuration file mapping relationship, and a confirmation message carrying the configuration file is sent to the device to be configured.

[0038] Step 303: Receive the configuration file and static IP address returned by the OpenVPN server; Step 304: Store the configuration file and the fixed IP address; Step 305: Send a confirmation message containing the configuration file to the device to be configured.
