Embodiment Construction

[0044] In this embodiment, the ALG is disabled on the CGN device, and the PCP protocol is used to replace the ALG on the home gateway for processing. The home gateway includes: PCP client unit and ALG proxy unit. The CGN equipment in the operator's network includes: a PCP server unit, an ALG unit and a NAT unit.

[0045] The ALG agent unit of the home gateway is used to listen to and analyze the protocol message sent by the application client that needs to be processed by ALG; apply for an external address and an external port on the PCP client unit of the home gateway according to the information resolved to the internal address and internal port ; Replace the information of the internal address and internal port in the protocol message with the applied external address and external port information; send the modified protocol message.

[0046] The PCP client unit of the home gateway is used to receive the external address and external port allocation request of the ALG prox...

Abstract

The invention discloses a protocol message transmission method, a home gateway and a CGN (carrier grade network switch) device. The method comprises steps as follows: the home gateway monitors a protocol message and parses the information of an internal address and an internal port in the load of the protocol message, and applies to the CGN device for an external address and an external port; and after receiving the information of the external address and the external port returned by the CGN device, the home gateway replaces the information of the internal address and the internal port in the load of the protocol message with the information of the external address and the external port, and forwards the protocol message through the CGN device. The invention realizes the ALG (application layer gateway)-like processing on the home gateway, generates the ALG type mapping entry on the CGN device based on PCP (peercast protocol), and closes the ALG function on the CGN device so as to relieve the processing burden of the CGN device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a protocol message transmission method, a home gateway and a carrier-level network conversion device. Background technique [0002] Network Address Translation (NAT) is a wide area network (WAN) access technology. It is a conversion technology that converts private (reserved) addresses into legal IP addresses. It is widely used in various types of Internet access methods and various types of networks. NAT can solve the problem of insufficient IP addresses. [0003] The home gateway was born with the concept of home network. It is an intelligent access gateway that gathers home network devices and interconnects with the Internet. [0004] Carrier Grade Network Address Translation (CGN) is a technology for converting address information in a carrier network. With the exhaustion of IPv4 address resources, operators urgently need to solve the problem of address resources. Operators use ...
