Configuration backup method, system and configuration file server and managed devices

Abstract

The invention discloses a configuration backup method, a system and a configuration file server, as well as managed devices. The managed devices send the configuration modification information to the configuration file server after receiving the configuration modification information. The configuration file server determines the configuration modification information as application configuration modification information and conserves the application configuration modification information and the correspondence relation between the managed devices mark and application mark. The configuration file server receives the configuration reset request of carrying application mark, finds out corresponding application configuration modification information according to the application mark and restores the configuration of managed devices by the application configuration modification information. The invention can carry out configuration and restoration to specific application, reduce the time of configuration reset and improve the configuration reset efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of configuration, in particular to a configuration backup method and system, a configuration file server and a managed device. Background technique [0002] The configuration file determines the specific behavior of the devices in the network for data processing. Different devices communicate with each other through different configurations and function to complete the data forwarding of the entire network and the implementation of different applications. Due to various reasons, the configuration file on the device may be damaged, or the device may be configured incorrectly. In order to quickly restore the configuration of the device, it is necessary to back up the configuration file of the device to a configuration file server to configuration file to restore the configuration of the device. [0003] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the existing configuration backup process, as shown in Figure 1, the spe...

Problems solved by technology

[0011] Since the managed device backs up all its current configuration files to the configuration file server every time it backs up the configuration file, therefore, every time the configuration of the managed device is restored, all the configuration files on the managed device are also Configuration files are restored at the same time, and usually only a certain application of the managed device is abnormal. In this way, the existing configuration backup method greatly increases the configuration recovery time and reduces the configuration recovery efficiency.
