Topology method and system for IP network management cluster in simple network management

Abstract

The invention discloses an IP network management cluster topology method and a system based on the simple network management, which pertains to the field of data product exchangers. The method of the invention comprises the following steps: a command exchanger firstly collects the topology data table of the SNMP management information base; then a network management system draws the cluster topology graph according to the management information base and the topology data table which are read on the command exchanger. The invention further discloses the IP network management cluster topology system based on the simple network management, which is applied in the management of cluster topology network. The invention particularly aims at the field of cluster management and topology managementof the exchanger in the network management, the command exchanger carries out the unified collection and maintenance of the topology data, so the invention can establish the topology link data rapidly when in topology establishment on the network management.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of data product switches, and in particular relates to an IP network management cluster topology method and system based on simple network SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) management. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the Internet and the gradual expansion of digital networks, relevant network resources are frequently in short supply, and IP address resources are one of the most important resources. For Ethernet switches, which are used in a very large number of network devices, a large amount of IP address resources must be wasted in decentralized management and monitoring of the switch network, and the complexity of management is also greatly increased. For this reason, the cluster management protocol is used for the management of Ethernet switches, and the management of a set of Ethernet switches is completed by using only one public network IP address. [0003] The management sw...

Problems solved by technology

In the above-mentioned traditional method, the network management needs to read data from each device to establish the topology. The data collection will be affected by the routing path of each device, network configuration and other factors, and the creation of the topology link will consume necessary time overhead.
