Problems solved by technology

[0007] Disadvantages of Solution 1: 1) This solution does not provide any interface for application developers, and must be applied and configured manually. The configuration efficiency is low, it is difficult for application developers to use, and the threshold is too high
2) As more and more application developers apply for content billing capabilities, the white list of content billing (especially in the form of URL) will also become longer and longer. In the content billing network system, such as GGSN (Gateway GPRS Support Node, GPRS support node gateway) performance will decline rapidly
[0008] Disadvantages of solution 2: 1) The traffic generated by the first message cannot be picked out; 2) AS must be a service provider trusted by the operator, otherwise there will be security problems; 3) As application developers who apply for content billing capabilities become more and more The white list of content billing (especially in the form of URL) will become longer and longer, and the dynamically generated white list has higher requirements for the content billing system, and the performance of the GGSN in the content billing network system will decrease. drop with it
[0009] To sum up, the disadvantages of the current solution are: 1) poor usability, and no easy-to-use interface for application developers; 2) system performance declines rapidly with the increase of applications applying for content billing; 3) poor security

specific Embodiment 1

[0064] image 3 is a schematic flowchart of the method for implementing application content charging in the present invention, as shown in image 3 As shown, the method for implementing application content charging in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0065] Step 301: The gateway node obtains the user's access information on the application on the cloud application hosting platform, specifically including: when the user initiates access to the application on the cloud application hosting platform, the gateway node (usually GGSN) extracts the corresponding information from the access data packet Application access information, such as application IP address, port information and corresponding access traffic;

[0066] Step 302: Generate a content billing bill for the corresponding application according to the application access information and the locally stored content charging rules, where the content charging rules are the IP address and port information of the...

specific Embodiment 2

[0103] This embodiment is further improved on the above-mentioned specific embodiment 1, that is, the port section of the cloud application platform still increases with the increase of applications. performance pressure, for this reason, this embodiment adopts the following technical solutions, such as Figure 5 shown, including the following steps:

[0104] Step 501: the cloud application hosting platform obtains the user's access information on the application on the platform;

[0105] Step 502: Generate a content billing bill for the corresponding application according to the application access information and the locally stored content charging rules, where the content charging rules are the IP address, port and URL information of the application;

[0106] Step 503: The billing system obtains the content billing bill, and generates specific billing related to specific applications.

[0107] Wherein, before step 501, it also includes:

[0108] The cloud application hostin...

specific Embodiment 3

[0135] From the detailed steps of the above-mentioned embodiment 2, it can be found that there will be corresponding bills for content billing traffic on both the GGSN and the cloud application hosting platform, that is, in this embodiment, there will be two billing points, although in the embodiment , the billing is generated according to the cloud application hosting platform, but, inevitably, the billing information will be out of sync in the above situation.

[0136] For this reason, this embodiment adds a new complex processing gateway node in order to overcome the above-mentioned shortcoming, and this gateway node adopts the setting of offline server, such as Figure 7 As shown, the following main steps are included:

[0137] Step 701: the online gateway node obtains the user's access to the cloud application hosting platform;

[0138] Obtain the corresponding access data packets to the cloud application hosting platform according to the data packet filtering rules stor...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for realizing application content charging. The method comprises the following steps: a gateway node obtains application access information of a user on a cloud application hosting platform; a content charging bill of a corresponding application is generated according to the application access information and a locally saved content charging rule, wherein the content charging rule includes the IP address and port information; the charging system obtains the content charging bill to generate specific charging related to a specific application. By the method and the system for realizing the application content charging, disclosed by the invention, the applications are hosted to the cloud application hosting platform and allocated with corresponding IP addresses and port information, so that the gateway node carries out content charging according to the IP address and port information of the applications saved on the cloud application hosting platform. The IP addresses belong to the IP address field of the cloud application hosting platform, so IP address rules managed by the gateway node are reduced. Therefore, the processing performance is enhanced. In addition, the invention also discloses a system realizing application charging.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of network charging, and in particular relates to a method and system for realizing application content charging. Background technique [0002] Traffic management is the future development trend of mobile operators. The ability of the network to differentiate content billing is an important feature of mobile networks. Currently, the following two solutions are mainly adopted: [0003] Option 1: If figure 1 As shown, the existing content billing is mainly to provide content billing capabilities for the operator's own business, including: the operator's network maintenance personnel manually configure the corresponding Uniform Resource Locator (URL, English Uniform / Universal Resource The abbreviation of Locator), IP address and other address whitelists, special traffic billing is performed for the addresses whose target addresses are in the whitelist (such as the address of the audited third-party business server). ...
