A network configuration method in which a management server and a local network are connected to a network, and compliant and noncompliant equipment which are arranged on the local network and compliant with and noncompliant with an auto-configuration protocol are automatically configured via the network from the management server, comprising the steps of:the compliant equipment transmitting a configuration request to the management server;

the management server replying with configuration information of compliant equipment and configuration information of noncompliant equipment in response to the configuration request;

the compliant equipment receiving its own configuration information and the configuration information of noncompliant equipment from the management server;

the compliant equipment configuring its own received configuration information into itself;

the compliant equipment establishing a communication channel between itself and the noncompliant equipment; and

the compliant equipment configuring the received configuration information of the noncompliant equipment into the noncompliant equipment via the communication channel.

Description

The Internet is characterized by the coexistence of two Internet Protocol (IP) versions and multiple autoconfiguration mechanisms which are deployed targeting specific communication scenarios ... In this paper we make a survey of the autoconfiguration mechanisms available for IP networks, and argue that a new solution is needed, so that the proper autoconfiguration mechanism can be selected automatically, dynamically and efficiently, and future communication paradigms can be properly addressed.
