Multi-interface management network architecture for cloud server

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-interface management network architecture for a cloud server. The multi-interface management network architecture mainly comprises a backboard interconnection module, a system management board and a plurality of computational nodes, wherein a management network interface is arranged on the system management board, and the whole machine is managed through the management network interface; a ten-gigabit network card interface for connecting a ten-gigabit network card is arranged at each computational node, and the whole machine can also be managed through the ten-gigabit network card interface; the backboard interconnection module is used for signal interconnection and power distribution between the system management board and each computational node; each computational node is interconnected with the system management board through a management network via the backboard interconnection module, and meanwhile, a network management NCSI (Network Connectivity Status Indicator) bus is led out from the system management board to each computational node through the backboard interconnection module. The integration of data and management dual networks is realized through setting the ten-gigabit network card interfaces on the computational nodes, the dependence on the special management network interface of the system management board is reduced, and the cloud server can still be managed without deploying a special management network and switching equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer technology, in particular to a cloud server-oriented multi-interface management network architecture. Background technique [0002] The traditional cloud server only has a user management interface on the system management board, and users can only access the management network through the user management interface of the system management board to manage the whole machine. Users must be equipped with dedicated network equipment for the management interface, and when cluster management of multiple cloud servers is required, a dedicated management network switch must also be equipped. The increase in equipment increases maintenance costs and also increases additional failure points. Contents of the invention [0003] Aiming at the above drawbacks, the present invention proposes a cloud server-oriented multi-interface management network architecture solution on the basis of the increasing popularity of 10G network por...
