example 1

[0078] In this embodiment, the processing flow of the AAA server when the message code flow is from the access network side to the network / service side is taken as an example. Meanwhile, for the convenience of description, in this embodiment, it is assumed that the received message is a message code stream based on the Radius protocol.

[0079] Step S501: Configure the protocol processing strategy and conversion rules through the configuration module 50 on the AAA server;

[0080] Step S502: The access network side message arrives at the AAA;

[0081] Step S503: The protocol adaptation module 52 selects an applicable protocol stack to process the message code stream according to the static configuration data; or if there is no static data configuration strategy, the protocol adaptation module 52 automatically selects Radius or Diameter according to the format of the message code stream protocol processing;

[0082] Step S504: The Radius protocol stack module 54 performs enco...

example 2

[0090] In this embodiment, the structure of the AAA server is basically the same as that of Example 1.

[0091] Step S601: Configure the protocol processing strategy and conversion rules through the configuration module 50 on the AAA server;

[0092] Step S602: The access network side message arrives at the AAA;

[0093] Step S603: The protocol adaptation module 52 selects an applicable protocol stack to process the message code stream according to the static configuration data; or if there is no static data configuration strategy, the protocol adaptation module 52 automatically selects Radius or Diameter according to the format of the message code stream protocol for processing;

[0094] Step S604: The Diameter protocol stack module 54 performs encoding and decoding processing on the code stream, and the processed code stream is delivered to the service processing module 58;

[0095] Step S605: The business processing module 58 completes the business layer processing of the m...

Abstract

The invention provides a network element interworking method and an AAA (authentication, authorization and accounting) server. The method comprises the following steps: the AAA server receives and processes a message from a first network element group, wherein, the first network element group is positioned at one side of the AAA server; when the AAA server determines that a protocol type supported by the received message is inconsistent with that supported by a second network element group, the AAA server converts the processed message into a message with a format of the protocol type supported by the second network element group, wherein, the second network element group is positioned at the other side of the AAA server; and the AAA server processes the converted message and sends the processed message to the second network element group. By adopting the technical proposal in the invention, the problem that different network elements at two sides of the AAA server can not be interconnected based on different protocols in the related art is solved, thus achieving the purpose of interconnection between different network elements at the two sides of the AAA server based on different protocols.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular, to a method for network element intercommunication and an Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA for short) server. Background technique [0002] In a telecommunications network such as Packet Switch (PS) domain system equipment, the AAA server is used as the authentication, authorization, and billing center for users to perform PS services, and needs to be connected to various network element devices to perform business transactions. Treated differently. In the following, one side of the AAA server is an access network, and the other side is a network side or a service side for description. [0003] Such as figure 1 As shown, in the process of a service, the user needs to pass through the network elements of the access network equipment of the AAA server: PDSN, Gateway General Packet Radio Service Supporting Node (Gateway General Packet Radio Service Supporting Node,...
