Detailed ways

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numerals in different drawings refer to the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with this specification. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects of the present specification as recited in the appended claims.

The terms used in this specification are for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and are not intended to limit the specification. As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms "a", "the", and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term "and/or" as used herein refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used in this specification to describe various information, the information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this specification, first information may also be called second information, and similarly, second information may also be called first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at" or "when" or "in response to a determination."

At present, it is necessary to manually configure the domain name of the cloud platform and configure the places to be joined on the cloud platform.

For example, configure the following information on the device:

cloud url xxxxx.xxxx.com (you need to configure the domain name of the cloud platform for each device to facilitate the device to connect to the cloud platform)

cloud-manager server password simple xxxx (you need to configure the key of the place to be added to the device one by one)

Through the above method, the device does not have automatic online and automatic operation and maintenance capabilities during the registration process of the cloud platform. Users with low operation and maintenance capabilities need to manually configure the device. Especially for scenarios with many devices, it is necessary to scan and add devices one by one, which is a huge workload.

In order to solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for registering a cloud device, as shown in FIG. 1 , the method includes:

S101 acquires the VLAN information of the cloud device accessing the network, and acquires the address information of the cloud device according to the VLAN information;

S102 Send a DHCP message to the cloud device according to the address information, and the DHCP message carries the domain name and/or key information of the cloud device to be connected to the cloud platform, so that the cloud device can and/or key information to register with the cloud platform.

In this embodiment, the cloud device may cover devices to be connected to the cloud platform, for example, switching devices, cloud APs, cloud terminals, and the like. For ease of description, a cloud AP will be used as an example in the following description.

In step S101, when the on-site personnel connect the cloud AP to the network of the site, the cloud AP will connect to DHCP for the VLAN corresponding to the site to obtain the corresponding address information. At this time, DHCP can obtain the corresponding address information of the cloud AP. VLAN information and address information assigned to the cloud AP.

In order to realize the domain name and/or key information for the cloud device to be connected to the cloud platform through DHCP in the present disclosure, the embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a method for pre-configuring the domain name and/or key information of the cloud platform, specifically Yes, the administrator can enter the domain name and/or key information of the relevant cloud platform in the DHCP server, and establish the corresponding relationship between the domain name and/or key information of the cloud platform and VLAN information.

In one case, all cloud devices in a scene only need to access one cloud platform. The cloud management platform located at the headquarters of location B, at this time, the administrator can link each VLAN information in the coffee shop at location A (or only one VLAN information is allocated) with the domain name and/or password of the cloud management platform of the headquarters of location B. key information to set the corresponding relationship.

In another case, each cloud device in a scene needs to access different cloud platforms. At this time, the administrator can configure different VLANs (partially different VLANs) corresponding to different cloud management platform domain names and/or According to the corresponding relationship of key information, cloud devices connected to different VLANs can obtain different domain names and/or key information.

In another embodiment, the administrator can also configure the domain name and/or key information of the corresponding platform for different network segments in DHCP. When DHCP receives the information that the cloud device accesses the network, it can The belonging VLAN information or other identification information assigns the address information of the target network segment to the cloud device, and at the same time obtains the domain name and/or key information of the corresponding platform according to the target network segment, and sends them to the cloud device.

As can be seen from the above steps, by configuring the correspondence between the VLAN information (address network segment) and the domain name and/or key information of the cloud platform in DHCP, DHCP can automatically send the domain name and key information of the corresponding cloud platform to the cloud device. / or key information, without the need for personnel to configure one by one on the cloud device, which realizes automation.

In step S102, the DHCP can carry the domain name and/or key information of the cloud device to be connected to the cloud platform through the Option field in the DHCP message.

In one example, the Option 252 field and Option 253 are available.

For example, the Option 252 field is used to identify the site key. The key is generated by the cloud platform and stored in the USB disk configuration. After the gateway uses the USB disk for deployment, the addresses assigned downwards all carry the Option option.

The Option 253 field is used to identify the domain name of the cloud platform. Save the file with the domain name configuration to the USB flash drive. After the gateway uses the USB flash drive for deployment, the addresses assigned downwards all carry the Option option.

After Option 252 and Option 253 in the DHCP message of the cloud device obtain the key and platform domain name, the registration information can be sent to the cloud platform after corresponding configuration to complete the cloud platform registration step.

In an actual scenario, the administrator pre-configures Option 252 and Option 253 on the DHCP server, where 252 is a location identifier (location key), and 253 is a domain name identifier.

The cloud device is connected through VLAN 1, and DHCP obtains the registration address.

The DHCP server assigns domain names and keys through DHCP option 252 and 253.

The cloud device automatically connects and registers with the cloud platform based on the key and domain name.

After the registration is successful, the configuration is delivered through the configuration template.

Correspondingly, administrators do not need to perform on-site configuration for cloud devices. Therefore, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for registering cloud devices. As shown in FIG. 2 , the method includes:

S201 accesses the network through the target VLAN, and sends the first message to DHCP in the network;

S202 Receive the DHCP message carrying the domain name and/or key information of the cloud platform fed back by the DHCP according to the first message;

S203 Register with the cloud platform according to the domain name and/or key information of the cloud platform carried in the DHCP message.

It can be seen that the cloud device can automatically obtain the key and domain name of the cloud platform to be accessed from DHCP, without the need for personnel to configure it on the cloud device.

It can be seen from the above embodiments that the administrator can pre-configure the domain name and/or key information of the cloud platform in DHCP, and send it to the cloud device, so that the cloud device sends the domain name and/or key information of the cloud platform according to DHCP. The key information is automatically registered with the cloud platform. In particular, when the number of devices is large and there are many types in the small business scenario, the connection with the cloud platform is established in an automated way, and the network is deployed, saving operation and maintenance costs, and realizing the unified operation and maintenance management of the overall network.
