Method and device for automatically classifying IP service data streams in access network

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a device for automatically classifying internet protocol (IP) service data streams in network access equipment. An access control protocol message (such as a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) message) between a user terminal and network resource management equipment is monitored, a service type and network access resource configuration of the user terminal are identified according to the access control protocol message, and the IP data streams of a user are automatically classified. Therefore, a complete service development and service data steam classification scheme can be established in an access network system, so the configuration workload of an operator during service deployment is reduced and the operating flexibility is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a method and device for automatically classifying IP service data streams in the field of access networks. Background technique [0002] Packet switching technology represented by IP data and Ethernet first entered the field of telecommunications core switching from the field of access network. However, there are inherent deficiencies in the quality of service management of packet switching technology, and it is difficult to meet the mainstream telecom operation mode of price according to quality, high quality and high price. Therefore, the IP bearer layer must provide different QoS to meet differentiated data service requirements. The Internet Engineering Task Force IETF has proposed two proposal models for IP service quality solutions: Integrated Services model (Integrated Services) and Differentiated Services model (Differentiated Services), and proposed IP data flow c...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, its business classification processing relies on the operator's operation and maintenance personnel to manually configure and intervene, and involves the overall planning of the network. The technical quality requirements for policy formulation and network planning personnel are relatively high. The IP address information of the host and workstation and the IP subnet where they are located and confirm the access relationship between them to configure policy rules

For large-scale networks, in order to complete differentiated control of services, even a lot of network resources have to be spent, such as adding monitoring and in-depth detection equipment, etc.; at the same time, the huge number of network terminals, and the replacement and movement of equipment will also increase management. Complexity and Difficulty and Effort

[0006] For example, if an operator wants to classify different services of users, it usually needs to configure user IP addresses one by one under each type of service. Under the current application background of a large number of broadband users, it will cause a huge workload for operation and maintenance; When end users move or replace devices, they also need to adjust the corresponding configuration
