Configuration methods and nodes for operation management and maintenance

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a configuration method and node of OAM (operation, administration and maintenance). The configuration method of the OAM comprises the following steps: using an intermediate node of a multicast tree to receive a multicast join message which is transmitted by a downstream node of the intermediate node, wherein the multicast join message comprises the configuration information of the OAM; and using the intermediate node to configure the OAM attribute of the intermediate node in accordance with the configuration information of the OAM and then transmit the multicast join message to an upstream node of the intermediate node, so that an upstream node of the intermediate node configures the self-OAM attribute according to the configuration information of the OAM in the multicast join message and transmit the multicast join message until the multicast join message is transmitted to a root node of the multicast tree hop-by-hop. According to the embodiment of the invention, the automatic configuration of the OAM attributes of the nodes on the multicast tree is realized, the workload of manual configuration is reduced, the human errors are avoided and reduced, and the operability is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of communications, and in particular, to a configuration method and node for operation management and maintenance. Background technique [0002] The video service is one of the important services for the future growth of the operator's business. The operator needs to provide users with services that meet the user's quality requirements, improve user satisfaction, increase the number of users and avoid user loss, and improve the operation and maintenance management capabilities of the video network. The operation, management and maintenance of multicast network (OperationAdministration and Maintenance; hereinafter referred to as: OAM) can discover the failure point or performance bottleneck point of the network through active detection or monitoring, detect the deterioration of network performance before the failure occurs, and take corresponding measures Avoid faults; after a fault ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] In the prior art, OAM configuration can be performed on each node on the multicast tree through manual configuration or management protocol, so as to complete the OAM configuration for the root node, leaf nodes and intermediate nodes of the multicast tree participating in the measurement, but this The method needs to configure all the nodes on the multicast tree. When the scale of the multicast tree is large, the operation is complicated, error-prone, and the operation and maintenance cost is high.
