Description

用于云无线局域网的设备管理方法及装置、云无线局域网Device management method and device for cloud wireless local area network, cloud wireless local area network 技术领域Technical field
本发明涉及无线通信领域，尤其涉及一种用于云无线局域网的设备管理方法及装置、云无线局域网。The present invention relates to the field of wireless communications, and in particular, to a device management method and apparatus for a cloud wireless local area network, and a cloud wireless local area network.
背景技术Background technique
随着无线网络技术的快速发展，移动终端普及，移动办公、无线接入的兴起，用户采用任意终端设备随时随地接入网络，网络设备的部署呈现分布化的方式，企业分支和总部需要统一化的网络管理，需要提供简易的部署方式，同时具备网络和用户管理功能。随着WiFi(Wireless Fidelity，基于IEEE 802.11系列标准的无线局域网技术)网络的不断演进，传统AC(access control，接入控制器)+AP(access point，接入点)两层设备组网，已逐步演化为三层架构的CloudWiFi(云WiFi，一种基于云端统一管控的新型的WiFi网络部署架构)：在internet网部署的云端管理平台，统一负责整体网络监控管理；将原来AC的部分管理功能下沉到本地，作为本地无线接入网关设备，与AP一起完成热点区域的无线覆盖。With the rapid development of wireless network technology, the popularity of mobile terminals, the rise of mobile office and wireless access, users use any terminal equipment to access the network anytime and anywhere, the deployment of network equipment is distributed, and the branches and headquarters need to be unified. Network management requires an easy deployment method with network and user management capabilities. With the continuous evolution of the WiFi (Wireless Fidelity) system based on the IEEE 802.11 series of standards, the traditional AC (access control, access controller) + AP (access point) two-layer device networking has been CloudWiFi (Cloud WiFi, a new type of WiFi network deployment architecture based on cloud unified management) gradually evolved into a cloud management platform deployed on the Internet, responsible for overall network monitoring and management; part of the original AC management functions Sinking to the local, as a local wireless access gateway device, together with the AP to complete the wireless coverage of the hotspot area.
但架构上的变化，对设备互通带来了一些挑战：传统的AC+AP架构，厂家都采用通用的capwap(Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Point Protocol，无线接入点控制与配置协议)消息交互；但在CloudWiFi下，引入了云端管理平台与无线接入网关之间新的接口。对于此接口，业界对其协议栈、报文格式等没有统一的定义，因此各厂家各自为政，采用私有接口，从设备互通和产品开发周期上带了很多麻烦。这种现状存在以下问题：在产品开发角度，为达成CloudWiFi的三层架构，厂家需要独立实现云端管理平台、无线接入网关、AP三种产品形态，对于传统的AC/AP厂商，需要投入精力开发云管理平台，耗费大量的时间和人力；在设备互通角度，由于缺乏标准协议接口，厂家需要按照自己的格式实现一套无线接入网关和云端的接口，这样在CloudWiFi网络架构下，不同厂家的设备无法做到互联互通，对网络部署和运维管理也带来很大挑战。However, the architectural changes have brought some challenges to device interoperability: the traditional AC+AP architecture, manufacturers use the common Capwap (Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Point Protocol) message interaction; However, under CloudWiFi, a new interface between the cloud management platform and the wireless access gateway is introduced. For this interface, the industry does not have a uniform definition of its protocol stack and packet format. Therefore, each manufacturer has its own policy and adopts a private interface, which brings a lot of troubles from device interoperability and product development cycle. This situation has the following problems: In terms of product development, in order to achieve the three-layer architecture of CloudWiFi, manufacturers need to independently implement the cloud management platform, wireless access gateway, and AP. For traditional AC/AP vendors, it is necessary to invest energy. Developing a cloud management platform consumes a lot of time and manpower; in the perspective of device interoperability, due to the lack of standard protocol interfaces, manufacturers need to implement a set of wireless access gateways and cloud interfaces according to their own formats, so that under the CloudWiFi network architecture, different manufacturers The devices cannot be interconnected, which also poses great challenges to network deployment and operation and maintenance management.
因此，如何提供一种可以解决现有云端管理平台与无线接入网关之间没有统一通信协议导致的设备互通及产品开发成本过高的设备管理方法，是本领域技术人员亟待解决的技术问题。Therefore, how to provide a device management method that can solve the problem of device interoperability and product development cost caused by the lack of a unified communication protocol between the existing cloud management platform and the wireless access gateway is a technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art.

第三实施例：Third embodiment:
本实施例中的双向通信协议以WebSocket协议为例，WebSocket协议是一种双向通信 协议，它建立在TCP之上，同http一样通过TCP来传输数据，但是它和http最大的不同有两点：1.WebSocket是一种双向通信协议，在建立连接后，WebSocket服务器和Browser/UA都能主动的向对方发送或接收数据，就像Socket一样，不同的是WebSocket是一种建立在Web基础上的一种简单模拟Socket的协议；2.WebSocket需要通过握手连接，类似于TCP它也需要客户端和服务器端进行握手连接，连接成功后才能相互通信。The two-way communication protocol in this embodiment takes the WebSocket protocol as an example, and the WebSocket protocol is a two-way communication. The protocol, which is built on top of TCP, transmits data over TCP as with http, but it differs from http by two points: 1. WebSocket is a two-way communication protocol. After establishing a connection, WebSocket server and Browser/UA Can actively send or receive data to the other party, just like Socket, the difference is that WebSocket is a simple analog Socket protocol based on the Web; 2.WebSocket needs to be connected by handshake, similar to TCP it also The client and the server are required to perform a handshake connection. After the connection is successful, they can communicate with each other.
本实施例采用以下技术方案：从互联互通方面，根据CloudWiFi组网配置集业务特征，定义一套通用的数据模型，来规范无线接入网关和云端门户间的消息交互，而无线接入网关与AP间则可以采用厂家自有实现，不做限制。In this embodiment, the following technical solution is adopted: from the aspect of interconnection and interworking, according to the business characteristics of the CloudWiFi networking configuration set, a common data model is defined to regulate message interaction between the wireless access gateway and the cloud portal, and the wireless access gateway and the wireless access gateway APs can be implemented by the manufacturer itself, without restrictions.
数据模型定义参照如下表1所示：The data model definition is as shown in Table 1 below:
Figure PCTCN2016100217-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2016100217-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2016100217-appb-000002

表1Table 1
表1抽象和定义了WLAN(Virtual Local Area Network，虚拟局域网)网络配置所需的基本对象，所有对这些对象的增删改查等操作，均通过消息的形式，由云端下发给下面的无线接入网关。表1中涉及的Mac为机器辅助识别，Machine Aided Cognition；STA为在WLAN中客户端，可以是装有无线网卡的计算机，也可以是有WiFi模块的智能手机，STA可以是移动的，也可以是固定的，是无线局域网的最基本组成单元。Table 1 abstracts and defines the basic objects required for the WLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) network configuration. All operations such as adding, deleting, and changing these objects are sent by the cloud to the following wireless interfaces. Into the gateway. The Mac involved in Table 1 is machine-aided identification, Machine Aided Cognition; STA is a client in WLAN, it can be a computer with a wireless network card, or a smart phone with a WiFi module, STA can be mobile, or It is fixed and is the most basic component of WLAN.
在接口通用性及效率方面，我们选用websocket，作为云端门户和无线接入网关间的接口承载协议，而接口数据基于统一定义的数据模型并采用JSON格式进行封装，具体的JSON消息格式，可参照下文所示。In terms of interface versatility and efficiency, we choose websocket as the interface bearer protocol between the cloud portal and the wireless access gateway, and the interface data is based on the uniformly defined data model and encapsulated in JSON format. The specific JSON message format can be referred to. Shown below.
现在结合表1及图3对本发明进行进一步详细说明；厂家实现CloudWiFi组网设备及用户部署、运维的具体方法包括步骤：The present invention will be further described in detail with reference to Table 1 and FIG. 3; the specific method for the manufacturer to implement the CloudWiFi networking device and the user deployment and operation and maintenance includes the following steps:
S301：连接云端管理平台与无线接入网关。S301: Connect the cloud management platform and the wireless access gateway.
在部署AP时，按照现有AP产品序列，实现其AP所属功能，CloudWiFi的组网架构对AP产品没有影响。对于无线接入网关，与AP的接口可采用厂家自有实现(甚至是私有自定义消息格式)，CloudWiFi的组网架构对AP产品没有影响。 When an AP is deployed, the AP's function is implemented according to the existing AP product sequence. The networking structure of CloudWiFi has no impact on the AP product. For the wireless access gateway, the interface with the AP can be implemented by the manufacturer (or even the private custom message format). The networking structure of the CloudWiFi has no effect on the AP product.
对于无线接入网关与云端管理平台的接口，采用统一的数据模型、承载协议和消息格式进行实现。The interface between the wireless access gateway and the cloud management platform is implemented by using a unified data model, a bearer protocol, and a message format.
接口采用Websocket，不再选用capwap或http(HyperText Transfer Protocol，超文本传输协议)等协议。在实际应用中，相同数量的客户端接收相同数量的数据，Websocket在报文额外开销上较Comet(一种基于HTTP长连接实现的“服务器推”技术)有很大程度的减少，传输效率更高；同时在相同时间内，Websocket比传统的Comet能产生更多的消息交互。The interface uses Websocket, and no other protocols such as capwap or http (HyperText Transfer Protocol) are used. In practical applications, the same number of clients receive the same amount of data, and Websocket has a much lower packet overhead than Comet (a "server push" technology based on HTTP long connection). High; at the same time, Websocket can generate more message interactions than traditional Comet.
数据模型可参照表1所示，定义了WLAN网络所需的基本配置对象，厂家可按此模型实现，不需要耗费额外精力构思数据模型及消息格式。The data model can be defined as shown in Table 1. The basic configuration objects required by the WLAN network are defined. The manufacturer can implement this model without extra effort to conceive the data model and message format.
用户将实现此标准的无线接入网关和AP，链接到internet上的云端管理平台。The user will implement the standard wireless access gateway and AP, and link to the cloud management platform on the internet.
