Abstract

The embodiments of disclosure disclose a method and device for binding information. In the method, when an HGW is in a power-on state, first identification information from an subordinate device of the HGW is received; when it is determined that the HGW executes a BOOT operation and a business worksheet corresponding to the subordinate device of the HGW exists currently, second identification information is acquired from the HGW, wherein the second identification information is relevant configuration information which is registered in the HGW when the subordinate device of the HGW is connected to the HGW in the power-on state; and after the first identification information is successfully matched with the second identification information, logical identification information of the HGW is bound with the first identification information.

First claim

1 . A method for binding information, comprising:
when a Home Gateway (HGW) is in a power-on state, receiving first identification information from an subordinate device of the HGW; when determining that the HGW executes a BOOT operation and a business worksheet corresponding to the subordinate device of the HGW exists currently, acquiring second identification information from the HGW, wherein the second identification information is relevant configuration information which is registered in the HGW when the subordinate device of the HGW is connected to the HGW in the power-on state; and after the first identification information is successfully matched with the second identification information, binding logical identification information of the HGW with the first identification information.

2 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein determining that the HGW executes the BOOT operation and the business worksheet exists currently comprises:
receiving a BOOT power-on message reported by the HGW, wherein the BOOT power-on message is triggered in a case that the HGW executes the BOOT operation, and the BOOT power-on message carries a Sequence Number (SN) of the HGW; searching for the logical identification information according to the SN; and acquiring the business worksheet according to the logical identification information.

3 . The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein acquiring the second identification information from the HGW comprises:
sending an instruction for acquiring a Media Access Control (MAC) address of the subordinate device of the HGW to the HGW; and receiving the MAC address returned by the HGW.

4 . The method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein binding the logical identification information with the first identification information after the first identification information is successfully matched with the second identification information comprises:
matching the MAC address acquired from the HGW with an MAC address, which is registered by the subordinate device of the HGW in the HGW; and when a matching result is that the MAC address acquired from the HGW is matched with the MAC address registered by the subordinate device of the HGW, binding the MAC address of the subordinate device of the HGW with the logical identification information.

5 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein before the second identification information is acquired from the HGW, the method further comprises:
receiving the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and storing the business worksheet.

6 . A device for binding information, comprising:
a first receiving component, configured to receive, when a Home Gateway (HGW) is in a power-on state, first identification information from an subordinate device of the HGW; an acquisition component, configured to acquire, when it is determined that the HGW executes a BOOT operation and a business worksheet corresponding to the subordinate device of the HGW exists currently, second identification information from the HGW, wherein the second identification information is relevant configuration information which is registered in the HGW when the subordinate device of the HGW is connected to the HGW in the power-on state; and a binding component, configured to bind, after the first identification information is successfully matched with the second identification information, logical identification information of the HGW with the first identification information.

7 . The device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the acquisition component comprises:
a first receiving element, configured to receive a BOOT power-on message reported by the HGW, wherein the BOOT power-on message is triggered in a case that the HGW executes the BOOT operation, and the BOOT power-on message carries a Sequence Number (SN) of the HGW; a searching element, configured to search for the logical identification information according to the SN; and an acquisition element, configured to acquire the business worksheet according to the logical identification information.

8 . The device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the acquisition component comprises:
a sending element, configured to send an instruction for acquiring a Media Access Control (MAC) address of the subordinate device of the HGW to the HGW; and a second receiving element, configured to receive the MAC address returned by the HGW.

9 . The device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the binding component comprises:
a matching element, configured to match the MAC address acquired from the HGW with an MAC address, which is registered by the subordinate device of the HGW in the HGW; and a binding element, configured to bind, when a matching result is that the MAC address acquired from the HGW is matched with the MAC address registered by the subordinate device of the HGW, the MAC address of the subordinate device of the HGW with the logical identification information.

10 . The device as claimed in claim 6 , further comprising:
a second receiving component, configured to receive the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and a storage component, configured to store the business worksheet.

11 . The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein before the second identification information is acquired from the HGW, the method further comprises:
receiving the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and storing the business worksheet.

12 . The method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein before the second identification information is acquired from the HGW, the method further comprises:
receiving the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and storing the business worksheet.

13 . The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein before the second identification information is acquired from the HGW, the method further comprises:
receiving the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and storing the business worksheet.

14 . The device as claimed in claim 7 , further comprising:
a second receiving component, configured to receive the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and a storage component, configured to store the business worksheet.

15 . The device as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising:
a second receiving component, configured to receive the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and a storage component, configured to store the business worksheet.

16 . The device as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising:
a second receiving component, configured to receive the business worksheet sent by a Business Support System (BSS), wherein information carried in the business worksheet comprises: the logical identification information; and a storage component, configured to store the business worksheet.
