With the development of communication technology, communication-related terminal devices, such as set top boxes, routers, ONU (Optical Network Unit ) terminals, and the like, are also maturing. In order to integrate these terminal devices, a plurality of terminal devices are designed in one product using an integration technique. For example, a converged terminal integrates functions of a set top box, a router, an optical network unit, and the like. The multiple module units in the convergence terminal can cooperate to realize a specific service, for example, a network service provider transmits service data to the convergence terminal, the service data can be sent to the set top box through the router, and the set top box realizes the processing of the service data.

In order to ensure the normal operation of the fusion terminal, the fusion terminal needs to be managed. At present, the management mode of the fusion terminal is to manage each unit module in the fusion terminal by using different management modes. Taking the above fusion terminal as an example: the management mode of the Optical network unit ONU is that the Optical network unit is connected with an OLT (Optical LINE TERMINAL ) of a network service provider through an OAM (Operations, administration AND MAINTENANCE) protocol, and the OLT manages the ONU module; the management mode of the routing module is that a manager logs in a web setting interface by using management equipment, performs management such as setting the routing module through the setting interface or builds a management server and develops a new management protocol to manage the router; the set top box module is managed by a management server provided by a network service provider.

All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.

In the present disclosure, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

The convergence terminal is a network device arranged at the user side, wherein the terminal can integrate functions of a plurality of network terminals and realize the functions of the plurality of network terminals.

As shown in fig. 1, in the terminal management system, an optical line terminal 101 is connected to an optical network unit 102 in a convergence terminal, where the convergence terminal may specifically include the optical network unit 102 (Optical Network Unit, abbreviated as ONU), a routing module 103, and a set-top box module 104, where the optical network unit 102 is connected to the routing module 103, and the routing module 103 is connected to the set-top box module 104. It should be noted that the three modules may be integrated in the same circuit board and connected electrically, or may be respectively arranged in different circuit boards and connected by a network cable. Of course, the fusion terminal may also integrate other functional modules, which are not specifically described herein.

It should be noted that, in order to ensure the normal operation of the fusion terminal, the fusion terminal needs to be managed. The integration of a plurality of module units contained in a terminal is currently performed as independent network devices, and management modes of the network devices are not unified. In order to realize unified management of a plurality of module units in the converged terminal, the application provides a terminal management method which is applied to a terminal management system.

The converged terminal (also called as home gateway equipment) is novel home intelligent terminal equipment. The system has the functions of an optical network unit ONU, a set top box and a router. Under the home gateway environment provided by the routing module, deep service fusion is performed aiming at the digital television service, and the requirements of optical access, wireless internet surfing, live broadcasting, on-demand broadcasting, review and the like of users can be met.

As shown in fig. 2, the terminal management method may specifically include steps S201 to S207.

S201: and the optical network unit receives the management data packet sent by the optical line terminal.

Specifically, an Optical line terminal (OLT for short) may issue a management data packet to an Optical network unit (Optical Network Unit), where the management data packet may include an Optical network unit management instruction, a routing module management instruction, or a set top box module management instruction.

The optical line terminal OLT is a core component of an optical access network, which is equivalent to a switch or a router in a conventional communication network, and is also a multi-service providing platform. Is typically placed at the office of a communication network and provides a fiber interface to a subscriber-oriented passive fiber network. The functions that it can realize include, upper communication network, finish the upstream access of PON (Passive Optical Network ) network; the optical network unit ONU at the user side is connected under the optical distribution network, so that the functions of controlling, managing, ranging and the like of the optical network unit ONU can be realized.

The optical network unit ONU is user terminal equipment in an optical network, is arranged at a user side and is matched with the OLT for use, the optical line terminal OLT is connected with the optical network unit ONU through optical fibers, and data transmission is completed through a data link layer and an IP layer of the Ethernet, so that services such as voice (fixed telephone), data (broadband), multimedia (set top box) and the like are provided for the user.

In practical application, a manager adds a management instruction to a certain or some unit modules in a management data packet according to the requirements of a network service provider. The optical network unit is provided with a monitoring unit, and is used for monitoring whether the sent packet belongs to the management data packet, if so, the optical network unit receives the management data packet, and if not, the optical network unit continues to execute according to the normal flow.

The management data packet is formed by encapsulating data by the optical line terminal through an operation maintenance management (Operation Administration AND MAINTENANCE, abbreviated as OAM) protocol, and the optical network unit management instruction, the routing module management instruction, the set top box module management instruction or other module management instructions are all added into the management data packet by a manager through the operation maintenance management protocol.

S202: if the management data packet includes an optical network unit management instruction, the optical network unit executes a first management operation indicated by the optical network unit management instruction.

Specifically, the optical network unit management instruction is an instruction for managing an optical network unit, and may specifically include any one or more of the following instructions: a value instruction, a value setting instruction, an upgrading instruction, a reporting instruction and the like. Of course, the optical network unit management instructions may also include other management instructions, which will not be specifically described herein.

The value instruction refers to reading the required information content from the optical network unit. For example: the optical power, the normal optical power value fluctuates around-25 dB (Decibel dB), and the optical power of the optical network unit is obtained by the manager through the system command that the optical network unit can recognize. The administrator can determine whether the connection between the optical line terminal and the optical network unit is normal by acquiring the value of the optical power. And the optical network unit generates a feedback data packet according to the information content corresponding to the value in the management instruction of the optical network unit.

The value setting instruction refers to setting the value of the optical network unit. Specifically, when the optical network unit management instruction includes a value setting instruction, the optical network unit sets a value of configuration information in the optical network unit according to the value setting instruction in the management data packet, and generates a feedback data packet according to the result.

The upgrade instruction indicates that the optical network unit is upgraded. Specifically, when the optical network unit management instruction includes an upgrade instruction, the optical network unit caches the upgrade package into a storage unit in the optical network unit according to the upgrade instruction, finishes upgrading according to the upgrade file in the upgrade package, encapsulates the upgraded information, such as the upgraded version number, and generates a feedback data package.

The reporting instruction indicates that the optical network unit reports a state, etc. Specifically, when the optical network unit management instruction includes a report instruction, the optical network unit generates a feedback data packet from the working state. And the optical line terminal judges whether the optical network unit fails or has other problems according to the reported feedback data packet.

In order to facilitate distinction from other management operations, the management operation indicated by the optical network unit management instruction is referred to as a first management operation.

S203: the optical network unit sends the management data packet to the routing module.

Specifically, the optical network unit sends the management data packet to the routing module.

The optical network unit can intercept the optical network unit management command in the management data packet, and after the management operation is executed by the optical network unit management command, the rest management data packet is regenerated into a new data packet, and the new data packet is sent to the routing module.

In another transmission mode, after the optical network unit executes the optical network unit management instruction in the management data packet, the optical network unit copies the management data packet to generate a new data packet, and then transmits the new data packet to the routing module. The new data packet has the same content as the management data packet.

In another sending manner, the optical network unit may further forward the original management data packet to the routing module after executing the optical network unit management instruction in the management data packet.

It should be noted that, the manner in which the optical network unit sends the management data packet to the routing module may include other forms besides the above three forms, which are not specifically described herein.

S204: the routing module receives the management data packet.

Specifically, a monitoring unit is arranged in the routing module, and whether the sent packet belongs to the packet of the operation maintenance management protocol or not is monitored, if yes, the packet is received, and if not, the packet is continuously executed according to the normal flow.

In step S203, the management data packet is sent to the routing module, but the management data packet may be related to the routing module management command or the set top box module management command, but may not be. Therefore, after receiving the management data packet, the routing module first analyzes the management data packet, and then makes a corresponding action, which specifically includes steps S205 to S206.

S205: if the management data packet contains the routing module management instruction, the routing module executes the second management operation indicated by the routing module management instruction.

Specifically, the routing module management instruction is an instruction for managing the routing module, and may specifically include any one or more of the following instructions: a value instruction, a value setting instruction, an upgrading instruction, a reporting instruction and the like. The routing module management instructions may also include other management instructions, which are not specifically described herein.

The value instruction refers to reading the required information content from the routing module. For example: and reading the VLAN value in the routing module, acquiring the VLAN value through a system command which can be identified by the routing module, and generating a feedback data packet by the routing module according to the value instruction in the routing module management instruction.

The value setting instruction refers to setting a value for the routing module. Specifically, when the routing module management instruction includes a value setting instruction, the routing module sets a value of configuration information in the routing module according to the value setting information in the management data packet, and generates a feedback data packet according to the result.

The upgrade instruction indicates that the routing module is instructed to upgrade. Specifically, when the routing module management instruction includes an upgrade instruction, the routing module caches the upgrade package into a storage unit in the routing module according to the upgrade instruction, finishes upgrading according to the upgrade file in the upgrade package, encapsulates the upgraded information, such as the upgraded version number, and generates a feedback data package.

The reporting instruction indicates that the routing module reports a state and the like. Specifically, when the routing module management instruction includes a report instruction, the routing module generates a feedback data packet from the working state. And the optical line terminal judges whether the routing module fails or has other problems according to the reported feedback data packet.

In order to facilitate distinction from other management operations, the management operation indicated by the routing module management instruction is referred to as a second management operation.

S206: if the management data packet contains a set top box module management instruction, the routing module sends the management data packet to the set top box module.

Specifically, since the management data packet is transmitted to the optical network unit through the operation maintenance management protocol, but the set-top box module may not support the operation maintenance management protocol, it is necessary to receive the management data packet containing the set-top box management instruction through the module capable of supporting the operation maintenance management protocol, and then send the management data packet to the set-top box module in a transmission protocol that can be supported by the set-top box module. In the converged terminal, the routing module receives the management data packet containing the set top box management instruction as a substitute, and sends the management data packet containing the set top box module management instruction to the set top box module through the routing module.

Wherein, the management data packet containing the management instruction of the set top box module can be received by other modules supporting transmission of operation maintenance management protocol, which will not be described in detail herein.

Ethernet OAM (Operations, administration, and maintenance) AND MAINTENANCE is a tool for monitoring network problems. It works at the data link layer with OAMPDUs (OAM Protocol Data Units ) that periodically interact between devices to report the status of the network, enabling network administrators to manage the network more efficiently. The OAM protocol, namely two terminal devices connected by the operation maintenance management protocol, can receive the device condition sent by the other party, and the operation maintenance management protocol is mainly used for solving the OAM problem of the last kilometer Ethernet device, including link performance monitoring, fault detection and alarming, loop testing, remote MIB variable request and the like.

S207: the set top box module executes a third management operation indicated by the set top box module management instruction.

Specifically, the set-top box module receives a management data packet containing a management instruction of the set-top box module.

The set top box module management instruction is an instruction for managing the set top box module, and specifically may include any one or more of the following instructions: a value instruction, a value setting instruction, an upgrading instruction, a reporting instruction and the like. Of course, the set-top box module management instructions may also include other management instructions, which are not specifically described herein.

The value instruction refers to reading the required information content from the set top box module. For example: the IP address acquired by the set top box module is read, the IP address of the set top box module is acquired through a system command which can be identified by the set top box module, and the set top box module generates a feedback data packet according to the information content corresponding to the value in the management instruction of the set top box module.

The value setting instruction refers to setting a value for the set top box module. The set top box module sets a value for configuration information in the set top box module according to the setting information in the management data packet, and the result is generated into a feedback data packet.

The upgrade instruction indicates that the set top box module is instructed to upgrade. Specifically, when the set top box module management instruction includes an upgrade instruction, the set top box module caches the upgrade package to a storage unit in the set top box module according to the upgrade instruction, finishes upgrading according to the upgrade file in the upgrade package, encapsulates upgraded information, such as an upgraded version number, and generates a feedback data package.

The report instruction indicates that the set top box module reports the state and the like. Specifically, the set top box module generates a feedback data packet from the working state. And the optical line terminal judges whether the set top box module fails or has other problems according to the reported feedback data packet.

In order to facilitate distinction from other management operations, the management operation indicated by the set-top box module management instruction is referred to as a third management operation.

As can be seen from the above technical solution, the present invention provides a terminal management method, which is applied to a terminal management system, where the terminal management system includes a converged terminal and an optical line terminal, and the converged terminal includes: the optical network unit, the routing module that links to each other with the optical network unit, the STB module that links to each other with the routing module. The method comprises the steps that an optical line terminal sends a management data packet to an optical network unit, the optical network unit executes management operation indicated by an optical network unit management instruction in the management data packet, the management data packet is sent to a routing module, the routing module executes management operation indicated by a routing module management instruction in the management data packet, the management data packet is sent to a set top box module, and the set top box module executes management operation indicated by a set top box module management instruction in the management data packet. The method realizes the unified and comprehensive management of the three unit modules by the optical line terminal.

The optical line terminal issues a management data packet to the fusion terminal, each module in the fusion terminal executes management operation indicated by a management instruction in the management data packet, whether the specific management operation is executed successfully or not needs to send feedback data packets generated after each module in the fusion terminal executes the management operation to the optical line terminal, and the optical line terminal analyzes the management data packets and the feedback data packets so as to determine whether the management is successful or not.

In addition, the embodiment of the invention also provides a terminal management method which is used for feeding back the management result to the optical line terminal. Specifically, the method may further include the following steps A1 to A4 on the basis of the above embodiment.

It should be noted that, the first management operation, the second management operation, and the third management operation are management operations indicated by management instructions corresponding to the three modules, where the first management operation, the second management operation, and the third management operation may be of a same type, such as a value, or may be of different operation maintenance management protocol types, and the types are set by a manager.

A1: the optical network unit generates an optical network unit feedback data packet according to the execution result of the first management operation, and sends the optical network unit feedback data packet to the optical line terminal.

Specifically, after the optical network unit performs the management operation indicated by the optical network unit management instruction, an optical network unit feedback packet is required for the optical line terminal, which is used to determine whether the management operation is successful.

The optical network unit feedback data packet generates an optical network unit feedback data packet according to the optical network unit management instruction. It is assumed that the optical network unit management instruction is set to a value instruction, and the value is configuration information in the optical network unit or other information in the optical network unit. Referring to the example in step S202, the specific value is taken as the optical power in the optical network unit, the optical network unit executes the management operation indicated by the type instruction, generates the corresponding feedback data packet according to the execution result, and sends the feedback data packet to the optical line terminal, namely, the data of-25 dB is encapsulated by the operation maintenance management protocol, and the feedback data packet of the optical network unit is generated and then sent to the optical line terminal.

A2: and the routing module generates a routing module feedback data packet according to the execution result of the second management operation and sends the routing module feedback data packet to the optical line terminal.

Specifically, after the routing module performs the management operation indicated by the routing module management instruction, a routing module needs to feed back a data packet to the optical line terminal, which is used to determine whether the management operation is successful.

And the routing module feedback data packet generates the routing module feedback data packet according to the routing module management instruction. It is assumed that the routing module management instruction is set to a value instruction, which is different from the value instruction of the optical network unit in A1, and the value of the value instruction is configuration information in the routing module or other information in the routing module. Referring to the example in step S205, the value of VLAN is taken, for example, the value of VLAN is 40, and the routing module encapsulates 40 data through the operation maintenance management protocol, generates a feedback data packet of the routing module, and sends the feedback data packet to the optical line terminal.

A3: and the set top box module generates a set top box module feedback data packet according to the execution result of the third management operation, and sends the set top box module feedback data packet to the optical line terminal.

Specifically, after the set-top box module executes the management operation indicated by the set-top box module management instruction, a set-top box module feedback data packet is required to be sent to the optical line terminal, which is used for determining whether the management operation is successful.

And the set top box module feedback data packet is generated according to the set top box module management instruction. Assume that the set top box module management instruction is set as a value-taking instruction, which is different from the value-taking instructions in A1 and A2: the value taken in this step is the configuration information in the set-top box module or other information in the set-top box module. Referring to the example in step S107, the specific value is taken as the IP address obtained by the set-top box module, for example, the IP address obtained by the set-top box module is 25.168.168.1, and at this time, the set-top box module encapsulates the data of the IP address through the operation maintenance management protocol, so as to generate a feedback data packet of the set-top box module, and then sends the feedback data packet to the optical line terminal.

It should be noted that, if the set-top box module does not support the operation maintenance management protocol, the set-top box module may send the feedback data packet to the optical line terminal through other modules, for example, the routing module sends the feedback data packet to the routing module, and the routing module encapsulates the feedback data packet of the set-top box into a packet of the operation maintenance management protocol and sends the packet to the optical line terminal.

A4: the optical line terminal receives the feedback data packet of each unit module and determines whether management operation on each unit module is completed or not according to the execution result in the feedback data packet of each unit module; if a certain unit module does not complete the management operation of the unit module, the optical line terminal resends the management data packet containing the management instruction corresponding to the unit module.

Specifically, taking a value as an example, the execution result of the feedback data packet of the optical network unit is: the optical power is-25 dB, which indicates that the value-taking operation of the optical line terminal is completed, and the management operation flow is ended; if the execution result of the feedback data packet is: if the optical power is null or unreasonable, the management operation is not executed successfully, and the optical line terminal sends a management data packet containing a value instruction to the optical network unit to re-value.

In addition, an embodiment of the present invention provides a terminal management method, as shown in fig. 3, where the method is applied to a terminal management system, where the terminal management system includes a converged terminal and an optical line terminal 301, where the converged terminal may specifically include an optical network unit 302, a routing module 303, and a set top box module 304. In this embodiment, the connection manner of each module unit in the fusion terminal is different from that of the above embodiment. The connection mode of each module unit is that the optical network unit 302 is respectively connected with the routing module 303 and the set-top box module 304.

It should be noted that, in the above embodiment, the optical line terminal, the optical network unit, and the routing module can identify the packet of the operation, maintenance and management protocol OAM, but the set-top box module cannot parse the data packet of this type. Therefore, the management instruction sent by the optical line terminal to the set top box module can be forwarded through the routing module. However, in this embodiment, the set-top box module or the optical network unit module may be set, so that the management instruction sent by the optical line terminal to the set-top box module may be directly sent by the optical network unit to the set-top box module.

In order to achieve the above objective, one way is that the set-top box module in this embodiment may be configured to be capable of parsing the management data packet of the OAM type of the operation maintenance management protocol, so that forwarding through the routing module is not required, and another way is that the optical network unit may encapsulate the data packet sent to the set-top box module according to the protocol type identifiable by the set-top box module, so that the data packet sent to the set-top box module may be parsed directly by the set-top box module.

The terminal management system based on the structure shown in fig. 3, the terminal management method may specifically include the following steps:
