技术领域technical field
本发明是有关于一种远程管理系统及远程管理方法,且特别是有关于一种管理远程管理装置的连接端口的远程管理系统及远程管理方法。The present invention relates to a remote management system and a remote management method, and in particular to a remote management system and a remote management method for managing connection ports of a remote management device.
背景技术Background technique
一般来说,通过具有网络连接能力的远程管理装置来管理远程的机房设备已经成为一种必然的趋势,例如位于台湾的管理者可以通过远程管理装置对位于美国的服务器进行管理,以便在某些情况下,当位于美国的服务器出现故障时,位于台湾的管理者亦不需要亲赴美国现场对服务器进行检修。请参照图13,图13绘示为传统远程管理的网络架构图。远程管理装置例如为网络型多计算机切换器1330(亦称为KVM Over-IP或是KVM Over Net)、网络型电源管理装置1340及网络型串行设备管理装置1350。网络型多计算机切换器1330具有一网络接口1332及一计算机接口1334,其网络接口1332用以连接网络1320,计算机接口1334用以连接多台计算机的键盘端口、鼠标端口及图像输出端口。在网络1320一端的客户端计算机1310能经由网络型多计算机切换器1330操控在网络1320另一端的多台计算机及接收多台计算机的图像信号。Generally speaking, it has become an inevitable trend to manage remote computer room equipment through a remote management device with network connection capabilities. For example, an administrator in Taiwan can manage a server in the United States through a remote management device. Under certain circumstances, when the server in the United States fails, the administrator in Taiwan does not need to go to the United States to repair the server in person. Please refer to FIG. 13 , which is a network architecture diagram of traditional remote management. The remote management device is, for example, a network KVM switch 1330 (also known as KVM Over-IP or KVM Over Net), a network power management device 1340 and a network serial device management device 1350 . The network KVM switch 1330 has a network interface 1332 and a computer interface 1334. The network interface 1332 is used to connect to the network 1320, and the computer interface 1334 is used to connect keyboard ports, mouse ports and image output ports of multiple computers. The client computer 1310 at one end of the network 1320 can control multiple computers at the other end of the network 1320 and receive image signals from the multiple computers via the network KVM switch 1330 .
网络型电源管理装置1340则具有一网络接口1342及一电源接口1344,其网络接口1342用以连接网络1320,电源接口1344用以连接多台计算机的电源端口。在网络1320一端的客户端计算机1310能经由网络型电源管理装置1340对在网络1320另一端的多台计算机进行电源开关的管理。网络型串行设备管理装置1350则具有一网络接口1352及一串行接口1354,其网络接口1352用以连接网络1320,串行接口1354用以连接多台网络装置的RS-232端口。在网络1320一端的客户端计算机1310能经由网络型串行设备管理装置对在网络1320另一端的多台网络装置进行操控。The network power management device 1340 has a network interface 1342 and a power interface 1344 , the network interface 1342 is used to connect to the network 1320 , and the power interface 1344 is used to connect to power ports of multiple computers. The client computer 1310 at one end of the network 1320 can manage the power on/off of multiple computers at the other end of the network 1320 via the network power management device 1340 . The network-type serial device management device 1350 has a network interface 1352 and a serial interface 1354. The network interface 1352 is used to connect to the network 1320, and the serial interface 1354 is used to connect to RS-232 ports of multiple network devices. The client computer 1310 at one end of the network 1320 can control multiple network devices at the other end of the network 1320 via the network serial device management device.
然而,不同种类的远程管理装置有各自不同的管理接口以及IP地址,当一使用者或是管理者同时必须管理网络型多计算机切换器、网络型电源管理装置及网络型串行设备管理装置时,使用者必须先以数个不同的IP地址连接不同种类的远程管理装置,然后在不同的管理界面(例如网络浏览器窗口)来回切换,方能同时管理各种远程管理装置。再者,一个远程管理系统包括多个远程管理装置,而每个远程管理装置又包括多个连接端口,此连接端口的总数加起来可能高达65535。因此,如何提供一个单一管理界面以有效地管理各种不同种类的远程管理装置的连接端口,即成为急需解决的重要课题。However, different types of remote management devices have different management interfaces and IP addresses. When a user or administrator must manage network KVM switches, network power management devices and network serial device management devices at the same time , the user must first connect to different types of remote management devices with several different IP addresses, and then switch back and forth between different management interfaces (such as web browser windows) in order to manage various remote management devices at the same time. Furthermore, a remote management system includes multiple remote management devices, and each remote management device includes multiple connection ports, and the total number of connection ports may be as high as 65535. Therefore, how to provide a single management interface to effectively manage the connection ports of various types of remote management devices has become an important issue that needs to be solved urgently.

首先如步骤510所示,管理服务器130将第一远程管理装置110及第二远程管理装置120的信息传给客户端计算机20以产生第一选单60。第一远程管理装置110及第二远程管理装置120的信息例如包括第一远程管理装置110及第二远程管理装置120的型号、连接端口个数、连接端口是否联机(on-line)、连接端口类型、通讯协议地址(IP Address)及媒体存取控制(Media Access Control,MAC)地址。第一选单60列出图2绘示的连接端口112(1)至112(M)及图3绘示的连接端口122(1)至122(N)以供使用者进行管理。因此,使用者仅需知道管理服务器的IP地址(使用者不需要知道第一远程管理装置110及第二远程管理装置120的IP地址),由此IP地址登入(Login)管理服务器后即可对第一远程管理装置110及第二远程管理装置120进行管理。First, as shown in
由于图2绘示的连接端口112(1)至112(M)及图3绘示的连接端口122(1)至122(N)分别连接至服务器PC-1-1至PC-1-M及服务器PC-2-1至PC-2-N,因此第一选单60所列出连接端口112(1)至112(M)及连接端口122(1)至122(N)可以服务器PC-1-1至PC-1-M及服务器PC-2-1至PC-2-N表示(如图6绘示)。接着如步骤520所示,管理程序140提供第一选单60。在一较佳实施例中,此第一选单60以一个三阶树状结构显示第一远程管理装置110及第二远程管理装置120,以及其下所管辖的服务器PC-1-1至PC-1-M及服务器PC-2-1至PC-2-N,其中管理服务器130为第零阶;第一图的第一或第二远程管理装置为第一阶;第一或第二远程管理装置的连接端口为第二阶。在一较佳实施例中,在第一选单60建立之后,若有一第三远程管理装置(未显示)连接至此网络30,此第三远程管理装置会主动与管理服务器130进行通讯,以便管理服务器130可将此第三远程管理装置纳入管理并更新第一选单60。Since the connection ports 112(1) to 112(M) shown in FIG. 2 and the connection ports 122(1) to 122(N) shown in FIG. 3 are respectively connected to the servers PC-1-1 to PC-1-M and Servers PC-2-1 to PC-2-N, therefore the connection ports 112(1) to 112(M) and connection ports 122(1) to 122(N) listed in the
接着如步骤530所示,使用者自连接端口112(1)至112(M)及连接端口122(1)至122(N)中选出P个连接端口而建立如图7绘示的第二选单70,且P小于M+N。此外,若第一选单为Q阶树状结构,则第二选单的阶数不大于Q,例如为Q-1阶树状结构。例如更详细地说,第一选单为三阶树状结构(其中第一图管理服务器为第零阶;第一图的第一或第二远程管理装置为第一阶;第一或第二远程管理装置的连接端口为第二阶),则第二选单为二阶树状结构(其中第一图管理服务器为第零阶;第一或第二远程管理装置的连接端口为第一阶)。换言之,此第二选单并未显示这些连接端口系由哪些远程管理装置所提供。另一方面,由于此第一远程管理装置或第二远程管理装置可为不同类型的远程管理装置,例如第一远程管理装置为一网络型多计算机切换器,第二远程管理装置为一网络型电源管理装置,因此通过本发明使用者可以自由地将第一远程管理装置的某些连接端口与第二远程管理装置的某些连接端口组合起来,使用者感觉上彷佛在管理一台同时具有计算机连接端口与电源端口的“虚拟设备”。由于前述第一选单60的连接端口112(1)至112(M)及连接端口122(1)至122(N)是以服务器PC-1-1至PC-1-M及服务器PC-2-1至PC-2-N表示,因此,使用者自第一清单60的服务器PC-1-1至PC-1-M及服务器PC-2-1至PC-2-N之中选出所欲管理的服务器。举例来说,若使用者欲管理服务器PC-1-1、服务器PC-1-2、服务器PC-2-1及服务器PC-2-2,则使用者自第一清单60中选择服务器PC-1-1、服务器PC-1-2、服务器PC-2-1及服务器PC-2-2而建立第二清单70,此时P即等于4。第二清单70的服务器PC-1-1、服务器PC-1-2、服务器PC-2-1及服务器PC-2-2即分别表示连接端口112(1)、连接端口122(2)、连接端口122(1)及连接端口122(2)。Then as shown in
由于第二选单70所列出的连接端口个数少于第一选单60所列出的连接端口个数(可能高达65535),因此使用者通过第二选单70能更有效地管理其特别感兴趣或是觉得特别重要的连接端口。换言之,使用者通过单一管理界面自行建立所需的连接端口选单,以提高操作上的效率与便利性。Since the number of connection ports listed in the
不仅如此,除前述步骤510至530之外,远程管理方法更能进一步地切换及设定使用者的权限,以提供一个弹性化的使用者存取授权模式。其中,管理者可以针对特定使用者设定各连接端口的存取权限。每一连接端口可由一位使用者单独存取,管理人员并可为每一连接端口单独设定系统登入的安全保护方式。Moreover, in addition to the
请同时参照图1、图7及图8,图8绘示为管理程序依据第二选单在客户端计算机逐一显示各P个连接端口所接收的图像信号的示意图。前述管理程序140不仅能够建立第二清单70,还能依据第二选单70在客户端计算机20逐一显示各P个连接端口所接收的图像信号。举例来说,P个连接端口包括连接端口112(1)、连接端口112(2)、连接端口122(1)及连接端口122(2)。其中,连接端口112(1)接收来自服务器PC-1-1的图像信号810;连接端口112(2)接收来自服务器PC-1-2的图像信号820;连接端口122(1)接收来自服务器PC-2-1的图像信号830;连接端口122(2)接收来自服务器PC-2-2的图像信号840。前述管理程序140依据第二选单70在客户端计算机20分别于时间T1至T4依序显示图像信号810至840。Please refer to FIG. 1 , FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 at the same time. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of the management program displaying the image signals received by each of the P connection ports one by one on the client computer according to the second menu. The aforementioned management program 140 can not only create the
请同时参照图1、图7及图9,图9绘示为P个连接端口所接收的图像信号的分割画面的示意图。前述管理程序140不仅能依据第二选单70在客户端计算机20逐一显示各P个连接端口所接收的图像信号,还依据第二选单70在客户端计算机20提供分割画面90。分割画面90显示P个连接端口所接收的图像信号。举例来说,P个连接端口包括连接端口112(1)、连接端口112(2)、连接端口122(1)及连接端口122(2)。其中,连接端口112(1)接收来自服务器PC-1-1的图像信号910;连接端口112(2)接收来自服务器PC-1-2的图像信号920;连接端口122(1)接收来自服务器PC-2-1的图像信号930;连接端口122(2)接收来自服务器PC-2-2的图像信号940。分割画面90即由图像信号910、图像信号920、图像信号930及图像信号940所组成。如此一来,使用者即能于同一时间监控多台服务器,大幅提高使用上的便利性。Please refer to FIG. 1 , FIG. 7 and FIG. 9 at the same time. FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of split screens of image signals received by P connection ports. The aforementioned management program 140 can not only display the image signals received by each of the P connection ports one by one on the

In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, this remote management system is in addition to the above-mentioned
