Abstract

The invention discloses an upgrading method and an upgrading system for firmware. The upgrading method comprises the steps that an upgrading control one board receives a firmware upgrading request from a main control one board, wherein the firmware upgrading request carries firmware upgrading parameter information; the upgrading control one board determines a sub-chain which is to be upgraded and corresponds to the firmware upgrading parameter information according to the firmware upgrading parameter information; the upgrading control one board obtains firmware upgrading data corresponding to the sub-chain from the main control one board and conducts upgrading to one piece of or multiple pieces of firmware on the sub-chain by the adoption of the firmware updating data. According to the technical scheme, remote firmware upgrading to a one board can be conducted under the condition that only a bare computer with the one board to be upgraded is powered on, and therefore the risk that normal operation of the system is affected due to the fact that firmware upgrading is conduced is lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular, to a firmware upgrading method and system. Background technique [0002] With the advent of the information age, the popularization of personal computers (PCs) and the wide application of the Internet, computer information technology has been effectively combined with all walks of life, various emerging technologies and new services are emerging, and users' demand for data bandwidth is also increasing. come higher. In order to meet the high bandwidth requirements of individual users, operators require network equipment with large capacity, high access and high processing performance. In order to meet the requirements of large capacity, high access, and high processing performance, current network equipment mostly adopts a distributed system that deploys a large number of central processing units (CPUs). [0003] Firmware is software embedded in a hardware device that can be upda...
