<p>A network element based distributed master/standby management method and the system thereof is a dynamic network management protection mode for the network element based distributed master/standby management system. The method involves connecting all the network elements, configuring the route between all the network elements to be bidirectional and configuring one server as the master server of the network elements and the other as the standby server. The master server manages and the standby server monitors the network elements in operation, and the standby server will take the place of the master server to manage the network elements when the communication between the network elements and the master server is disconnected, and the system switches back to the original state in which the master server of the network elements manages the network elements according to the master server returning strategy when the communication is recovered. The method of the present invention achieves load balancing by properly assigning the number of network elements managed by the two network management servers working as the master server to make the two servers share the load; and when the communication is disconnected, the master-standby switching can be performed and the synchronization of the data between the master server and standby server is ensured, thus the reliability of the network management of the system is improved.</p> |
