Embodiment 1

[0025] as attached figure 1 As described, the process of the SDN-based switch operating system loading method in this embodiment includes:

[0026] S01) UEFI firmware starts the switch hardware platform, and loads the switch management port network card driver;

[0027] S02) The user sets the switch management port IP address and the SDN controller IP address, and stores them;

[0028] S03) The SDN controller and the switch establish a communication link through the IP address;

[0029] S04) On the SDN controller side, deliver the switch operating system image to the switch according to network requirements;

[0030] S05) The system loader in the UEFI firmware bootloads the switch operating system image obtained from the SDN controller.

[0031] In this embodiment, the switch hardware platform adopts a general network function hardware platform based on Intelx86 architecture and Broadcom switching chip, and uses Intel 10 Gigabit network card as the management port network c...

Abstract

The invention relates to the network technology field and the fixing member technology field, especially relates to the software definition network technology and particularly relates to a switch operation system loading method based on an SDN mode. The method comprises steps that 1), a UEFI fixing member starts a switch hardware platform, and a switch management port network interface card driver is loaded; 2), an IP address of a switch management port and an IP address of an SDN controller are set by a user and are stored; 3), a communication link between the SDN controller and the switch is realized through the IP addresses; 4), at the SDN controller end, a switch operation system mirror image is issued to the switch according to network demands; and 5), a system loader in an UEFI fixing member carries out leading loading for the switch operation system mirror image acquired from the SDN controller. Through the method, more elastic network equipment function control and more flexible network topology adjustment can be realized, and convenience is provided for rapid networking.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of network technology and firmware technology, in particular to software-defined network technology, and in particular to an SDN-based method for loading an operating system of a switch. Background technique [0002] The current development of SDN (Software Defined Network) technology is accompanied by more and more NFV (Network Function Virtualization, Network Function Virtualization) implementations. The future development trend of switches is more generalized hardware platforms with more flexible software applications. However, the configuration and networking of the current switch are based on the traditional command-line configuration method, which puts forward relatively high requirements for the workload of switch maintenance. Contents of the invention [0003] In order to solve the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides an SDN-based switch operating system loading method, which can...
