Description

升级服务器、机顶盒、机顶盒升级文件下发方法及系统Upgrade server, set-top box, set-top box upgrade file delivery method and system

技术领域technical field

After a new version is released, users must complete the update as soon as possible to obtain better user experience and services.

在实际应用中，升级服务器由于受硬件和带宽资源的约束，如果是在高峰期用户都去去升级版本，可能会影响观看视频，而且大家都在抢占带宽，升级效率也会比较低。现有技术全部部署为前台升级，不限制下载速度，不在高峰期还好，软件版本包很快就可以下载完成，但是，如果是机顶盒使用高峰，平均下来的一个终端的下载速度就会非常有限，就会对用户的使用造成一定影响。In practical applications, the upgrade server is limited by hardware and bandwidth resources. If users upgrade the version during the peak period, it may affect watching videos, and everyone is grabbing bandwidth, so the upgrade efficiency will be relatively low. The existing technologies are all deployed as front-end upgrades, and the download speed is not limited. It is okay not during the peak period, and the software version package can be downloaded quickly. However, if it is the peak use of the set-top box, the average download speed of a terminal will be very limited. , it will have a certain impact on the user's use.

如图3所示，本实施例提供的通信系统包括：机顶盒及HTTP(HyperTextTransfer Protocol，超文本传输协议)升级服务器，其中，As shown in Figure 3, the communication system provided by this embodiment includes: a set-top box and an HTTP (HyperTextTransfer Protocol, hypertext transfer protocol) upgrade server, wherein,

HTTP升级服务器提供软件版本所在路径，机顶盒向服务器请求并下载版本包中的规则文件，解析出是否有新版本和升级类型标识UpdateType。解析到部署中有自适应后台升级标志UpdateType＝adaptive，则启用自适应后台升级功能。The HTTP upgrade server provides the path where the software version is located, and the set-top box requests and downloads the rule file in the version package from the server, and parses out whether there is a new version and the upgrade type identifier UpdateType. If it is resolved that there is an adaptive background upgrade flag UpdateType=adaptive in the deployment, then the adaptive background upgrade function is enabled.

由HTTP服务器来对后台升级的带宽进行控制(比如控制单个机顶盒的下载速率在400kbps)。同一台服务器通过识别客户端的user-agent来识别是前台还是后台升级请求，同时支持前台升级和后台升级，且对前、后台升级有所区分。比如HTTP服务器支持100个前台升级的连接数，以及支持1000个400Kbps下载速率的后台升级连接数，连接数的比例可以作为apacheHTTP服务器的配置项。The bandwidth of the background upgrade is controlled by the HTTP server (for example, the download rate of a single set-top box is controlled at 400kbps). The same server identifies whether it is a foreground or background upgrade request by identifying the user-agent of the client. It supports both foreground upgrades and background upgrades, and distinguishes between front-end and background upgrades. For example, the HTTP server supports 100 connections for foreground upgrades and 1000 connections for background upgrades with a download rate of 400Kbps. The ratio of the connections can be used as a configuration item for the apache HTTP server.

如图4所示，本实施例提供的方法包括以下步骤：As shown in Figure 4, the method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

S401-S403：系统初始化，升级服务器放置版本，部署后台升级版本地址、前台升级版本地址、自适应后台升级版本地址，并分别部署每个地址的链接数、下载速率；机顶盒上部署自适应后台升级版本地址。需保证机顶盒可以通过网络成功连接升级服务器。S401-S403: System initialization, upgrade server version, deploy background upgrade version address, foreground upgrade version address, adaptive background upgrade version address, and deploy the link number and download rate of each address respectively; deploy adaptive background upgrade on the set-top box version address. It is necessary to ensure that the set-top box can successfully connect to the upgrade server through the network.

S404-S406：机顶盒上电后，自行连接升级服务器，并下载升级规则文件，成功下载后对其进行解析；出错则停止本次升级动作。S404-S406: After the set-top box is powered on, it connects to the upgrade server by itself, and downloads the upgrade rule file, and analyzes it after successful download; if an error occurs, stop the upgrade action.

S407：机顶盒解析到规则文件中部署了自适应后台升级标志，则启用后台升级功能。S407: The set-top box parses that the adaptive background upgrade flag is deployed in the rule file, and enables the background upgrade function.

S408-S413：机顶盒向服务器请求下载版本镜像文件时，在User-Agent中带上前台请求标志Wget，如果服务器链接数足够，则给机顶盒返回200，机顶盒会弹出下载界面，开始下载版本镜像；如果服务器链接数不够，则给机顶盒返回503，机顶盒则过5分钟后重新向服务器发起链接请求，User-Agent中带上后台请求标志WgetBG，服务器由此关键字跳转至后台升级版本地址。S408-S413: When the set-top box requests to download the version image file from the server, put the front request flag Wget in the User-Agent, if the number of server connections is sufficient, return 200 to the set-top box, the set-top box will pop up the download interface, and start downloading the version image; if If the number of server connections is not enough, 503 will be returned to the set-top box, and the set-top box will re-initiate a connection request to the server after 5 minutes. The user-agent will bring the background request flag WgetBG, and the server will jump to the background upgrade version address based on this keyword.

S414：机顶盒在后台从后台部署目录中下载镜像。S414: The set-top box downloads the image from the background deployment directory in the background.

综上可知，通过本发明实施例的实施，至少存在以下有益效果：In summary, through the implementation of the embodiments of the present invention, there are at least the following beneficial effects:

本发明实施例提供了一种机顶盒升级文件下发方法，在接收机顶盒发起的前台文件下载请求，先判断运行参数是否满足前台下载请求，在不满足时，向机顶盒返回后台下载触发信息，后台下载触发信息用于触发机顶盒周期性的发起后台文件下载请求；这样就实现了根据运行参数，对前台下载请求进行管理的目的，实现了前台下载与后台下载动态配合的技术，而不会如现有技术那样为所有的前台下载请求都提供前台下载服务，也不会出现现有机顶盒全部采用前台下载模式导致使用高峰下载速度受限的问题，增强了用户的使用体验。The embodiment of the present invention provides a set-top box upgrade file delivery method. When the foreground file download request is initiated by the receiver top box, it is first judged whether the operating parameters meet the foreground download request. If not, the background download trigger information is returned to the set-top box, and the background download The trigger information is used to trigger the set-top box to periodically initiate a background file download request; in this way, the purpose of managing the foreground download request according to the operating parameters is realized, and the technology of dynamic cooperation between the foreground download and the background download is realized, and it will not be like the existing The technology provides foreground download service for all foreground download requests, and there will be no problem that the existing set-top boxes all adopt the foreground download mode, which leads to the limitation of peak download speed, which enhances the user experience.
