Abstract

A network control device, the network control system and the method of the remote device, the control method comprises of the next steps. A bridge device judges the destination of the packages. If the destination of the package from the second network port is the third network port, the bridge drops the packages. If the destination of the package from the first network port is the third network port, the bridge device merge the operate command according to the packages.

Claims

1. A network control device, comprising:

a first network port, connected to a main computer;

a second network port, connected to an electronic device via a network;

a third network port, electrically connected to a target device; and

a processing unit, electrically connected to the first network port, the second network port and the third network port, the processing unit controlling the bidirectional transmission between the first network port and the third network port, the processing unit controlling the bidirectional transmission between the second network port and the third network port, and the processing unit controlling the unidirectional transmission from the first network port to the third network port.

2. The network control device according to claim 1, further comprising a heterogeneous conversion unit connected between the third network port and the target device.

3. The network control device according to claim 2, wherein the processing unit transfers a first network package from the main computer to the heterogeneous conversion unit, the heterogeneous conversion unit recombines the first network packages to output an operation command, the heterogeneous conversion unit transmits the operation command to the target device, the heterogeneous conversion unit transmits a response information from the target device to the processing unit, the processing unit converts the response information to a second network package and transmits the second network package to the main computer.

4. A network control system for a network control device, the network control system comprising:

an electronic device;

a main computer, for transmitting a first network package having an operation command;

a target device, for receiving the operation command or transmitting a response information;

a heterogeneous conversion unit, connected to the target device, the heterogeneous conversion unit converting the first network package to the operation command and transmitting the operation command to the target device, or the heterogeneous conversion unit converting the response information from the target device to a second network package; and

a bridge device, having a processing unit, a first network port, a second network port and a third network port, the processing unit connected to the first network port, the second network port and the third network port, the first network port connected to the main computer, the second network port connected to the electronic device, the third network port connected to the heterogeneous conversion unit, the processing unit controlling the bidirectional transmission between the first network port and the third network port, and the processing unit controlling the unidirectional transmission between the first network port and the third network port.

5. The network control system according to claim 4, wherein the processing unit transfers the first network package from the main computer to the heterogeneous conversion unit, the heterogeneous conversion unit recombines the first network packages to output the operation command, the heterogeneous conversion unit transmits the operation command to the target device, the heterogeneous conversion unit transmits the response information from the target device to the processing unit, the processing unit converts the response information to the second network package and transmits the second network package to the main computer.

6. A network control method of a remote device, comprising:

judging the destination of a network package received by a first network port or a second network port of a bridge device;

the bridge device dropping the network packages when the destination of the network packages received by the second network port is a third network port; and

the bridge device recombining an operate command according to the network packages when the destination of the network packages received by the first network port is a third network port.

7. The network control method of the remote device according to claim 6, wherein the step of judging the destination of the network package further comprising:
