VLAN Link Establishment Through Automatic Address Configuration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current communication systems require manual configuration of transmission-related parameters, such as VLAN interface information and IP addresses, which is complex and inefficient, especially when links need to be adjusted.
Innovation Solution
A method for network devices to automatically generate transmission-related configuration parameters by creating virtual local area network interfaces and addresses based on received packets, using protocols like LLDP and DHCP, without manual intervention.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual configuration of transmission parameters is used, then configuration accuracy can be ensured, but operation complexity increases and efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The network device automatically generates transmission parameters including VLAN interface information and IP addresses through self-service mechanisms. The device receives packets, creates virtual local area network interfaces, and generates address information without requiring manual configuration by operation and maintenance personnel, thereby improving efficiency while maintaining accuracy through automated self-configuration.
2Loss of time
If manual configuration is used for link adjustments, then configuration control is precise, but time consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring the device with automated parameter generation capabilities. When a link adjustment is needed, the device can immediately generate new configuration parameters automatically without waiting for manual intervention, thus reducing link adjustment time while maintaining precise control through the automated generation process.
3Ease of operation
If automated parameter generation is implemented, then operation complexity is reduced, but configuration precision may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The automated parameter generation process incorporates feedback mechanisms where the network device receives packets containing configuration information, processes this information to generate VLAN interface information and address information, and can adjust parameters based on received feedback from the network environment. This ensures that automated generation maintains configuration precision while improving ease of operation.

AI summary
This application provides a link establishment method, an apparatus, and a storage medium. The method includes: a second device receives a first packet, and creates virtual local area network interface information based on the first packet; and the second device generates address information of the second device, and sends first information to a first device, where the first information corresponds to the virtual local area network interface information, and the first information is used to generate first address information of the first device, or the first information includes the first address information. In the foregoing solution, the address information of the device does not need to be manually configured, so that the device automatically configures the virtual local area network interface information, providing data support for link establishment.
