Embodiment 1
[0037] Embodiment 1: Increase the number of AP Licenses of the AC
[0038] When the SNMP protocol is used, the AP License configuration parameter structure is defined as shown in Table 1:

Embodiment 2
[0045] Embodiment 2: Reduce the number of AP Licenses of the AC
[0046] In this embodiment, the SNMP protocol is still used, and the AP License configuration parameter structure is defined as shown in Table 1.
[0047] First, after the AC starts to connect to the NMS, the AC establishes a normal management link with the NMS, and the AC obtains the AP License parameters mentioned above through the SNMP OID message.
[0048] Second, the NMS periodically collects running status parameters on the AC through SNMP GET messages. The solution involves the maximum number of accessible licenses (Lmax), the number of currently configured licenses (Lnow), and the number of currently connected APs (Nap). The NMS saves the corresponding relationship between the code of the AC management unit and Lmax, Lnow, and Nap, and periodically collects and maintains this data, and the period is configurable. At the same time, the NMS may also maintain an unallocated License (Lplus), where Lplus<=∑Lm...
Embodiment 3
[0052] Embodiment 3. Part of the AP License is reclaimed from one AC, and the reclaimed part is used to increase the AP License of another AC
[0053] First, after the AC starts to connect to the NMS, the AC establishes a normal management link with the NMS, and the AC obtains the AP License parameters mentioned above through the SNMP OID message.
[0054] Secondly, the NMS periodically collects the AC license status parameters through the SNMP GET message, which involves the maximum number of accessible licenses (Lmax), the number of currently configured licenses (Lnow), and the number of currently connected APs (Nap). The NMS saves the corresponding relationship between the code of the AC management unit and Lmax, Lnow, and Nap, and periodically collects and maintains this data, and the period is configurable. At the same time, the NMS may also maintain an unallocated License (Lplus), where Lplus<=∑Lmax-∑Lnow. To ensure the security of Lplus, NMS uses encrypted files to con...
