Method and device for selecting gateway in mobile communication network as well as system comprising device

A mobile communication network and gateway technology, applied in the field of mobile communication systems, can solve the problems of continuous change of the IMSI/MSISDN sequence, increase the time delay of the PDP activation procedure, etc., and achieve the effects of speeding up the establishment of EPS bearers, improving the success rate, and reducing the response time.

Problems solved by technology

If the DNS query includes 4-digit IMSI / MSISDN, there must be 10,000 records in the DNS server; third, additional DNS resolution will increase the time delay of the PDP activation procedure; fourth, the IMSI / MSISDN sequence continues to change, so the operator has to Continue to add DNS records in the DNS server

[0030] In this instance, APNs with a user login identifier is resolved as an extension. Preferably, the APN with a partial user login identifier is resolved as an extension.

[0031] As shown in Table 2, in the DNS server, the APN and some user login (such as home location registration HLR / home subscriber server HSS) identifiers are bound with the IP address of the dedicated gateway.

Abstract

The invention discloses method and device for selecting a gateway in a mobile communication network as well as a mobile communication system comprising the device. The gateway is selected by binding an expanded access point name to a dedicated gateway IP address. The method reduces the requests to a DNS (Domain Name System) server and relieves the burden of the DNS server to ensure that time delay is reduced during PDP (Plasma Display Panel) activation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and device for selecting a gateway, in particular to a method and device for selecting a gateway in a mobile communication network and a mobile communication system including the device. Background technique [0002] In 3GPP standard mobile networks, when activating a Packet Data Protocol (PDP) context or establishing an Evolved Packet System (EPS) bearer, the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) or Mobility Management Entity (MME) has to implement the Gateway GPRS Support Node / Service The selection of Gateway / PDN Gateway (GGSN / SGW / PGW) is usually based on the Access Point Name (APN) to a considerable extent. [0003] An extension can be added to APNs to select a more dedicated gateway before sending queries to Domain Name System (DNS) servers. Partial mobile station / user equipment (MS / UE) identifiers, such as Mobile Subscriber ISDN Number (MSISDN) or International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI), are often used as APN ...
