Remote inventorying method and system for network equipment, and inventorying platform

Abstract

The invention provides a remote inventorying method for network equipment. The method comprises the following steps that an inventorying platform sends an inventorying request to a network group working platform; the network group working platform acquires corresponding software version information of each switch according to the inventorying request, generates a corresponding equipment information grabbing instruction of each switch according to the software version information, and transmits to a switch management server; the switch management server acquires log information of a corresponding switch according to the inventorying request; the inventorying platform compares the log information with pre-stored switch information and part information to generate an inventorying result. The embodiment of the invention has the advantages of remote and automatic inventorying, labor force is reduced, cost is saved, and accurate inventorying is realized. The invention further provides a remote inventorying system for the network equipment, an inventorying platform and a switch management server.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer technology, and particularly designs a remote inventory method for network equipment, a remote inventory system for network equipment, an inventory platform, and a switch management server. Background technique [0002] With the continuous expansion of the scale of the Internet industry, the construction of IDC equipment rooms is rapid, and the number of network devices continues to increase, making network device management more and more challenging. The current inventory method relies too much on manual operations and has a low degree of automation, so it lacks in inventory efficiency and accuracy. [0003] The existing company's inventory of online network equipment is only based on the verification of quantity and accounts, and the network equipment does not support the hot-swappable function. Can check whether the quantity matches on-site according to the ledger records. That is, it cannot guarantee...

Problems solved by technology

But the price of the transponder is too high, and the quantity requirement is more

A large amount of capital needs to be invested in the early stage, which greatly increases the inventory cost, and the cost performance is not outstanding only as an inventory

Moreover, the prerequisite for applying this management method is that the equipment to be inventoried must be pasted with electronic labels, and the precision of network equipment is relatively high. Network parts cannot all meet the requirements for pasting electronic labels.

For example, sticking electronic labels on boards and optical modules may affect the normal use of equipment. Therefore, the electronic label management method is limited in applicability. Companies with high requirements for online inventory and equipment management accuracy reaching the level of part serial numbers do not Be applicable
