Problems solved by technology

[0026] Due to the fixed configuration of the gateway, the DHCP Client cannot independently select the IP addresses of other subnets, and the DHCP Server cannot control the allocation of IP addresses of other subnets to the DHCP Client, which limits the application flexibility of the DHCP protocol and not only improves the operation costs, and slow down the speed of business deployment, and is not conducive to the management and maintenance of retailer address space

[0100] Additionally, for the above Figure 4 The first embodiment of the gateway management method of the present invention shown has the following points to be explained:

[0101] A1. Process S405 describes the event that the DHCP Server triggers and controls the DHCP Relay Agent / DHCPProxy to activate the dynamic gateway. This event is stored in the DHCP Server as the local policy of the DHCP Server. The event may include but not be limited to the following:

[0102] The IP addresses in the corresponding subnet segments of the gateways (including default gateways and active dynamic gateways) on the corresponding DHCP Relay Agent / DHCP Proxy that perform the gateway function have been allocated;

[0103] The corresponding DHCP Relay Agent / DHCP Proxy performs the gateway function gateway (including the default gateway and the dynamic gateway in the active state) and the leased IP address in the corresponding subnet segment reaches a preset value;

[0163] For the above Figure 9 The sixth embodiment of the gateway management method of the present invention shown has the following points to be explained:

[0164] D1, during concrete realization, the DHCP message that sends can have other options, for example S902 step can send the message of other forms, is not limited to DHCP release message, also can be DHCP update message or other;

[0165] D2, the deactivation of the dynamic gateway triggered by the DHCP Server described in the fifth embodiment of the management method of the gateway of the present invention, and the dynamic gateway triggered by the DHCPRelay Agent / DHCP Proxy described in the sixth embodiment of the management method of the gateway of the present invention The deactivation of all the methods is optional, and only one of them can be adopted or adopted at the same time, wherein the fifth embodiment of the gateway management method of the present invention is the preferred solution, and other optional so...

[0271] In the above two implementation modes, the information interaction originally realized in a single device is realized between the devices through a specific protocol, for example, it can be realized through one of the SNMP protocol, the DIAMETER protocol, or the COPS protocol;

[0272] K2. The gateway management method described in the embodiment of the present invention may have hierarchical control of activation / deactivation of the target dynamic gateway, such as Figure 4The first embodiment of the gateway management method of the present invention is shown, in which the master control part for the activation of the target dynamic gateway is realized in S406, and the slave control part for the activation of the target dynamic gateway is realized in S408, correspondingly in the device, In terms of the system, there may also be a master control functional unit and a slave control functional unit, such as the perception unit and the control unit in the DHCP Server 103 of...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for managing a gateway. The method provides a dynamic gateway for network equipment, wherein the dynamic gateway at least comprises activated state and deactivated state, and the gateway function can be executed after the dynamic gateway is activated. The method comprises the following steps: perceiving an event of activated / deactivated target dynamic gateway; and controlling activating / deactivating operation of the target dynamic gateway according to the perceived event and activation / deactivation state information of the dynamic gateway. The invention also discloses another method for distributing an address, a gateway management functional entity, a gateway functional entity, an address distribution functional entity and a network communication system. With the adoption of the method, the address provided by the dynamic gateway can be flexibly used, and application flexibility of DHCP can be improved under a HDCP environment, thereby not only reducing operating cost, but also improving speed of service deployment, and facilitating the management maintenance of retailer address space.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a gateway management method, an address distribution method, a gateway management functional entity, a gateway functional entity, an address distribution functional entity and a network communication system. Background technique [0002] Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a mechanism for dynamically specifying IP addresses and configuration parameters. The DHCP protocol is mainly used in large-scale network environments and places where configuration is difficult. According to the DHCP protocol, the DHCP server will automatically specify configuration parameters such as an Internet Protocol (IP) address and a gateway address for the client. Since the DHCP configuration can be automatically implemented and managed in a unified manner, the DHCP protocol is more and more widely used. [0003] The DHCP protocol generally adopts the client / server (Client / Server) mode...
