Cable connection management system and cable connection management method

A cable connection management method in a cable connection management system including:

• a network orchestrator configured to:
• manage a port of a network device to which a connector-attached cable is connected;
• an apparatus configured to:
• obtain a connector ID information on the connector-attached cable;
• and
• a cable connection management server configured to:
• manage the connector ID information and port ID information on the port,
• the cable connection management method comprising:
• obtaining, by the apparatus, the connector ID information on the connector-attached cable when the connector-attached cable is connected to the network device;
• sending, by the apparatus, the connector ID information to the cable connection management server when the connector-attached cable is connected to the network device;
• obtaining, by the network orchestrator, the port ID information on the port from the network device in response to a first inquiry transmitted to the network device and based on the network device having previously received a command to activate the port associated with the port ID information;
• receiving, by the cable connection management server, the connector ID information from the apparatus;
• transmitting, by the cable connection management server, a second inquiry to the network orchestrator including the connector ID information in response to receiving the connector ID information;
• obtaining, by the cable connection management server, the port ID information from the network orchestrator in response to the second inquiry;
• and
• associating and storing, by the cable connection management server, the connector ID information and the port ID information.
