US 2026/0303455 A1 · NETWORK SYSTEM CONFIGURATION METHOD AND NETWORK SYSTEM

Abstract

A network system configuration method, applied a network system comprising a plurality of network nodes. The method comprises: (a) a host device transmitting a configuration data unit to a first network node, wherein the configuration data unit comprises an initial counter value; (b) modifying the initial counter value to a first counter value, then the first network node using the first counter value as a first target address of the first network node; (c) the first network node determining whether there is a second network node to which transmission can continue; and (d) if the second network node exists, transmitting the configuration data unit to the second network node, after the second network node modifying the first counter value to a second counter value, the second network node using the second counter value as a second target address of the second network node.

A network system configuration method, applied a network system comprising a plurality of network nodes connected in series in a form of a daisy-chain, the network system configuration method comprising:

(a) a host device transmitting a configuration data unit to a first network node in the network nodes, wherein the configuration data unit comprises an initial counter value;
(b) modifying the initial counter value to a first counter value, then the first network node using the first counter value as a first target address of the first network node;
(c) the first network node determining whether there is a second network node to which transmission can continue;
and
(d) if the second network node exists, transmitting the configuration data unit to the second network node, after the second network node modifying the first counter value to a second counter value, the second network node using the second counter value as a second target address of the second network node.

A network system, comprising:

a first network node;
and
a second network node, wherein the first network node and the second network node are connected in series in a form of a daisy-chain;
wherein the first network node and the second network node are used for performing a network system configuration method comprising:
(a) the first network node receiving a configuration data unit from a host device, wherein the configuration data unit comprises an initial counter value;
(b) the first network node modifying the initial counter value to a first counter value, then the first network node using the first counter value as a first target address of the first network node;
(c) the first network node determining whether there is a second network node to which transmission can continue;
and
(d) if the second network node exists, transmitting the configuration data unit to the second network node, after the second network node modifying the first counter value to a second counter value, the second network node using the second counter value as a second target address of the second network node.
