Step S120, selecting grouping equipment from the plurality of equipment to be selected according to the information of the plurality of equipment to be selected.

The grouping device refers to a device to be selected for forming a group with the target device. The grouping device and the target device constitute a group so as to report the state of each device in the group to the server in units of the group. The number of grouping devices is not limited. For example: the number of the devices to be selected is larger than or equal to the number of the grouping devices.

Selecting a grouping device comprising: selecting information of all devices to be selected from the information of the multiple devices to be selected, and taking all the devices to be selected as grouping devices; or randomly selecting information of preset first number of devices to be selected from the information of the plurality of devices to be selected, and taking the devices to be selected corresponding to the information of the selected devices to be selected as grouping devices; or determining the network delay of the target device and each device to be selected according to the information of the multiple devices to be selected, sequencing the devices to be selected according to the sequence of the network delays from small to large, and selecting the devices to be selected with a preset first number as grouping devices from the device to be selected with the minimum network delay; or, starting from the candidate device with the smallest network delay, selecting the candidate device which is at most preset with the first number and agrees to form a group with the target device as the grouping device.

Step S130, determining reporting devices in the target device and the grouping device, so as to report the states of the target device and the grouping device to the server through the reporting devices in the device grouping period.

The reporting device is a device for reporting the state of each device in the packet to a server.

Determining a reporting device, comprising: randomly determining one device as a reporting device in the target device and the grouping device; or, determining one device as a reporting device in the target device and the grouping device through a consensus algorithm.

Further, the consensus algorithm is mainly to determine one device as a reporting device in the target device and the grouping device by performing negotiation communication with the grouping device.

And the negotiation communication means that the target equipment and the grouping equipment exchange negotiation information, and the target equipment and the grouping equipment jointly select reporting equipment according to the received negotiation information. The negotiation information refers to information for selecting a reporting device.

Further, the types of negotiation information include: the online time of the current device, the network delay from the current device to other devices in the group, and the average network delay from the current device to other devices in the group. For example: and determining the equipment with the minimum network delay average value as the reporting equipment in the target equipment and the grouping equipment.

After determining the reporting device, the reporting device may send information of each device in the group to the server, so that the server knows the information of each device in the group.

In this embodiment, the target device determines the packet to which the target device belongs in each device packet cycle, determines the reporting device in the packet, and the reporting device collects the states of the devices in the packet and reports the states to the server. According to the method and the device, the client does not need to establish communication connection with the server and report the heartbeat packets, and the server does not need to receive the heartbeat packets sent by a large number of devices respectively and process the heartbeat packets, so that the state reporting efficiency of the devices is effectively improved, and the heartbeat packet processing pressure of the server is reduced. Based on the above status reporting method executed on the target device side, the following description is directed to a status reporting method executed on the server side.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a status reporting method executed on a server side according to an embodiment of the present application.

Step S210, receiving the state of the target device and the state of the packet device reported by the reporting device.

The reporting device is a device determined from the target device and the grouping device after the device grouping period starts. That is, the reporting device is included in the target device and the packet device, and the status of the reporting device is included in the status of the target device and the status of the packet device.

The grouping device is selected by the target device from a plurality of devices to be selected, and the information of the plurality of devices to be selected is sent to the target device by the server.

The types of the states include: an online state and an offline state.

Step S220, updating the current state of the target equipment according to the state of the target equipment; and updating the current state of the grouping device according to the state of the grouping device.

On the server side, an online device list may be set, and information of devices in an online state is recorded in the online device list. And removing the information of the equipment in the offline state from the online equipment list according to the current state of the target equipment and the current state of the grouping equipment.

In this embodiment, before receiving the state of the target device and the state of the packet device reported by the reporting device, location information from the target device may also be received; according to the position information of the target equipment, selecting a preset number of equipment as equipment to be selected from the equipment in an online state; wherein the distance between the selected device and the target device is smaller than the distance between the unselected device and the target device; and returning the information of the plurality of devices to be selected to the target device, so that the target device can select the grouping device from the plurality of devices to be selected according to the information of the plurality of devices to be selected.

Further, in order to send information of the client near the target device to the target device, the server may determine a distance between the target device and another online device, and obtain a plurality of devices in the order from small to large as a candidate device of the target device. For example: and acquiring 50 devices as the devices to be selected of the target device according to the sequence of the distances from small to large, and sending the information of the 50 devices to the target device.

Further, the number of the target devices registered by the server is multiple, and the information of multiple candidate devices sent by the server to each target device may or may not be repeated. For example: when the target equipment is online, the target equipment sends position information to a server, and the server sends information of a plurality of equipment to be selected to the target equipment according to the position information of the target equipment; the information of the multiple devices to be selected sent to the target device is allowed to be repeated with the information of the devices to be selected sent to other devices, so that the target device can select the grouping device from the multiple devices to be selected in a request mode, and the devices in different groups are prevented from being repeated. For another example: when each device grouping period starts, the target device sends position information to the server, the server distributes a plurality of unrepeated devices to be selected for each target device according to the position information of each target device, and sends the information of the devices to be selected corresponding to each target device to the target device, so that the target device selects the information of all the devices to be selected returned by the server, and all the devices to be selected are used as grouping devices.

In this embodiment, before receiving the state of the target device and the state of the packet device reported by the reporting device, information from each device in the packet sent by the reporting device may also be received. Information for the group is maintained during the current device group period.

In this embodiment, because a network connection between the reporting device and the server may have a network failure, in view of such a situation, starting from the situation that the status of the target device and the status of the packet device reported by the reporting device are not received, in a preset second waiting time period, and under the situation that the status of the target device and the status of the packet device reported by the reporting device are still not received, the current status of the target device and the current status of the packet device are both updated to the offline status. The duration of the second waiting time period is greater than the duration of the reporting time period of the reporting device.

In this embodiment, the server receives the state of the target device and the state of the grouping device reported by the reporting device, and does not need to establish communication connection with all devices in the group where the reporting device is located, or receive the heartbeat packet sent by each device in the group where the reporting device is located, and only completes the state update of each device according to the state group (the state of the target device and the state of the grouping device) reported by the reporting device, so that the state update efficiency is high, and the information processing pressure is low.

In order to make the present embodiment clearer, the status reporting method of the present embodiment is further described below. Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a status reporting method according to an embodiment of the present application.

In step S310, after each device grouping cycle starts, the target device reads information of multiple devices to be selected returned by the server.

The time length of the equipment grouping period is longer than the period time length of the heartbeat packet reported by the equipment.

Before reading the information of a plurality of devices to be selected, the server needs to send the position information of the target device, so that the server selects a preset number of devices as the devices to be selected from the devices in an online state according to the position information of the target device; wherein the distance between the selected device and the target device is smaller than the distance between the unselected device and the target device; and receiving and storing the information of the plurality of devices to be selected returned by the server.

Further, under the condition that the position of the target device is fixed, after the target device is on line, communication connection is established with the server, and the position information of the target device is sent to the server. When the location of the target device is in a mobile state, the location information of the target device is transmitted to the server at intervals.

Further, the information of the plurality of devices to be selected returned by the server is recorded in the list of the devices to be selected. The target device may maintain the list of devices to be selected, and the target device may add or delete information of the devices in the list of devices to be selected according to a requirement.

Step S320, the target device establishes a communication connection with each of the devices to be selected according to the information of the devices to be selected.

The information of the device to be selected may include a communication address of the device to be selected; the target device establishes a TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) communication connection with the device to be selected according to the communication address of the device to be selected.

Step S330, the target device determines the network delay of each device to be selected based on the communication connection with each device to be selected.

The target device may use an ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) Protocol to test network delay with each device to be selected.

Step S340, the target device selects a grouping device from the multiple devices to be selected according to the network delay of each device to be selected.

Since the device to be selected may already form a group with other devices, in order that the devices in different groups do not repeat, the device to be selected may sequentially send a grouping request to each of the devices to be selected in the order from small to large network delay; receiving an agreement grouping message or a rejection grouping message returned by each device to be selected; and selecting the device to be selected which returns the agreement grouping message as the grouping device so as to combine the target device and the selected grouping device into a group. Wherein the number of grouping devices is at least one. For example: the target device determines 10 devices with the shortest message round-trip time as grouping devices among the 50 candidate devices.

The group agreement message is returned when the device to be selected does not belong to other groups; or, the device to be selected belongs to other groups and the first network delay is less than the second network delay; the first network delay is the network delay between the device to be selected and the target device; the second network latency is a network latency between the device to be selected and the interactive device in the other group.

The reject packet message is returned when the device to be selected belongs to other packets and the first network delay is greater than or equal to the second network delay.

Step S350, the target device determines the online time of the target device (the target device itself); and sending the online time length of the target device to the grouping device, and receiving the online time length of the grouping device sent by the grouping device.

After the grouping device is selected, the target device and the grouping device form a group. In order to report the status of each client in a group to the server in units of groups, a reporting device may be selected in a group.

Further, for each packet device, the packet device sends negotiation information to the target device after returning an agreement packet message to the target device. The negotiation information includes the online time duration of the packet device.

Step S360, the target device determines the device with the longest online time as the reporting device in the target device and the grouping device; and the grouping device also determines the device with the longest online time as the reporting device.

The target equipment sends the negotiation information to the grouping equipment, and the grouping equipment also needs to send the negotiation information to the target equipment, so the negotiation information of the target equipment and the grouping equipment is equal, the determined reporting equipment is the same, and the information of the reporting equipment does not need to be mutually notified.

In this embodiment, in one packet, the role of the reporting device is a leader, and the other devices are fulllovers.

Step S370, the target device reports the states of the target device and the grouping device to the server through the reporting device in the device grouping period.

Under the condition that the target equipment is determined as the reporting equipment, receiving heartbeat packets reported by the grouping equipment at intervals of a preset reporting time period, and determining the state of the grouping equipment according to the received heartbeat packets; and reporting the state of the target equipment and the state of the grouping equipment to the server. And the reporting time period is a state reporting period. And reporting the time period to an empirical value or an experimental value.

Further, the state of the grouping device corresponding to the received heartbeat packet is determined as an on-line state, and the states of the remaining grouping devices are determined as an off-line state.

And under the condition that the grouping equipment is determined as the reporting equipment, the target equipment sends a heartbeat packet to the reporting equipment every reporting time period, so that the reporting equipment determines the state of the target equipment according to the heartbeat packet reported by the target equipment and reports the state to the server.

When the target device is determined to be a reporting device, deleting the information of the grouping device from the condition that a heartbeat packet reported by the grouping device is not received in a preset first waiting time period from the condition that the heartbeat packet reported by the grouping device is not received; and the duration of the first waiting time period is greater than the duration of the reporting time period. If the heartbeat packet reported by one device is not received within a certain time, it indicates that a communication fault has occurred between the target device and the grouping device or that the grouping device has been offline. In this embodiment, the status of the grouping device is marked as down status, so that the server updates the status of the grouping device to be down status, and after the grouping device recovers communication or goes online, the server recovers the on-line status again in the form of regrouping.

In step S380, the server receives the state of the target device and the state of the packet device reported by the reporting device.

The current state of each device is recorded on the server side for communication with devices in an online state.

In order to timely know whether the state of each device changes, the server needs to update the state of each device every preset reporting time period, so that the server receives the state of the target device and the state of the packet device reported by the reporting device every reporting time period.

Step 390, the server updates the current state of the target device according to the state of the target device; and updating the current state of the grouping device according to the state of the grouping device.

In the embodiment, the devices needing to be kept in the online state are grouped, the devices in the group are communicated with each other to confirm the states of the devices, and then one reporter and the server are selected every grouping period to deliver the state of each device in the group, so that the pressure of the server on keeping the heartbeat package connection with a plurality of devices simultaneously in order to confirm whether the devices are online is relieved.

Further, under the condition that the propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave is constant, the smaller the network delay is, the faster the message transmission is, so the server provides the candidate device for the target device to select according to the position information of the target device, and the communication efficiency between the target device and the candidate device is improved.

Further, the target device selects the devices to be selected with small network delay to form a group based on the network delay between the target device and each device to be selected, so that the communication timeliness between the devices in the same group is high, and the timeliness of the states of the devices in the group reported to the server is guaranteed.

Furthermore, the reporting device is determined through a consensus algorithm, the negotiation information used by the consensus algorithm is the online time, and the device with the longest online time is selected as the reporting device, so that the stability of the reporting device can be ensured, that is, the stability of state reporting is ensured, and the reporting of the device state cannot be influenced by frequent change of the reporting device.

Furthermore, the reporting device reports the state of each device in the group in which the reporting device is located, so that the reporting device only needs to be in communication connection with the server, and each device does not need to be in communication connection with the server and report the heartbeat packet.

In carrying out the present embodiment, the following points need to be noted:

and under the condition that the target equipment is determined to be the reporting equipment, under the condition that the communication connection with the server is determined to be disconnected, re-determining the reporting equipment in the target equipment and the grouping equipment. Under the condition that the reporting equipment is disconnected from the server in communication, the states of all the equipment in the group cannot be reported to the server, and under the condition, the reporting equipment needs to be elected again, and the states of all the equipment in the group are reported through new reporting equipment.

If the target device is not a newly added device of the server, the information of the target device may be sent to other devices by the server, and when the other devices determine the grouping device, a grouping request sent by the other devices may be received, and for this case, the embodiment may perform the following steps:

and returning a group grant message to the other equipment under the condition that a grouping request from the other equipment is received before the equipment for reporting is determined, so that the target equipment enters the grouping of the other equipment. In this case, the target device does not belong to any group, and may first agree to join the groups of other clients.

After the reporting equipment is determined, determining a third network delay and a fourth network delay under the condition of receiving grouping requests from other equipment; wherein the third network latency is a network latency between the target device and the other device; the fourth network delay is a network delay between the target device and the reporting device. And under the condition that the third network delay is less than the fourth network delay, returning an agreement grouping message to the other equipment, and sending a rejection grouping message to the target equipment. And returning a rejection packet message to the other equipment when the third network delay is greater than or equal to the fourth network delay.

The grouping principle of this embodiment is that network delay between devices in a group is small, so after receiving a grouping request from another device, information of the other device can be extracted from the grouping request; determining the network delay of each device to be selected in the device to be selected list under the condition that the information of the other devices is determined not to be contained in the device to be selected list; determining the maximum network delay in the network delay of each device to be selected in the device to be selected list; and deleting the information of the equipment to be selected corresponding to the maximum network delay from the equipment to be selected list and adding the information of the other equipment to the equipment to be selected list under the condition that the third network delay is smaller than the maximum network delay.
