A method, device and system for access authentication

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method, a device and a system that can realize the access authentication. A network node initiates an access authentication operation with an authentication server, which performs an authentication processing on the access authentication operation initiated by the network node; after the network passes the authentication and is authorized as a trusted node, a user connected to the trusted node initiates an access authentication operation via the trusted node, and the authentication server performs an authentication processing on the access authentication operation initiated by the user. Meanwhile, the trusted node utilizes the received control information released by a policy server to perform various control operations on the user. The present invention enables service providers to pointedly carry out accounting and charging on different users under a network node according to different service circumstances and prevents sham users; and the network node can perform the corresponding management operations on the policy information and an admission control list and can locally monitor the service level agreement nearby.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of network communication, in particular to a method, device and system for realizing access authentication. Background technique [0002] At present, network architecture methods are divided into fixed network architecture, mobile network architecture, and hybrid architecture of fixed network and mobile network. These three network architectures have been widely used in different application scenarios due to their respective advantages. For example, fixed networks are mainly used in homes or places with fixed offices because they cannot be moved and have relatively good signals, such as DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) networks; mobile networks are mainly used in Mobile public transportation such as cars, trains, ships or airplanes; the mixed network of fixed network and mobile network is mainly used in applications that need to comprehensively consider the mobile performance of the network and the quality of ...

Problems solved by technology

[0017] 1. NSP cannot perceive the existence of connected users on the RG, that is, NSP can only collect statistics on the network traffic on the RG to bill and charge the network services on the RG, but cannot target the users connected to the RG. Different users are billed and charged according to different services;

[0018] 2. Since the NSP does not authenticate the users connected to the RG, the NSP cannot take security precautions against counterfeit users;

[0019] 3. Because only simple line authentication is performed on RG, and no relevant trust authentication is performed on RG, so RG is an untrusted node, so RG cannot obtain the QoS (quality of service) policy of RG from Policy Server (policy server), Therefore, the network system cannot perform resource management control (such as uplink bandwidth control) according to a unified QoS policy.

At the same time, for services based on network connections such as VolP (Voice over Internet Protocol), RG cannot perform AC (Admission Control) for VoIP according to a unified QoS policy;

[0020]4. Since the RG is an untrusted node, the ACL (Admission Control List) related to the RG cannot be obtained from the authentication information, so the multicast authority of the user cannot be checked. control, unable to do fast channel switching control

[0021]5. Since the RG is an untrusted node, it cannot t
