AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing network equipment, the configuration data of the main control board and the switching network board are strongly associated with the physical identifier, which means that when the switching network board slot is replaced, the service needs to be disconnected to update the configuration data, affecting service continuity.

Method used

The main control board is used to set virtual identifiers for the switching network board. Configuration data is generated through mapping relationships to avoid direct association between configuration data and physical identifiers, so that services can be accessed without interruption when the switching network board slot is adjusted.

Benefits of technology

This ensures uninterrupted service during the adjustment of switching board slots, guaranteeing the service continuity and flexibility of network equipment.
