Method and system for mapping HTTP service to information center network

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a system for mapping HTTP service to an information center network. The method comprises steps that: a user and a server are respectively connected with an inlet end and an outlet end of the information center network, an HTTP request sent by the user is parsed at the inlet end, and the HTTP request is assembled into an information center network request message which is then sent to the outlet end through a router in the information center network; the request message is assembled by the outlet end into HTTP information, and data is requested from the server; the HTTP response information and TCP data information which are returned from the server are received by the outlet end, after the information is assembled into the information center network data message, and the information center network data message is returned to the inlet end through the router of the information center network; the information center network data message returned from the outlet end is received by the inlet end, and the information center network data message is assembled into HTTP response data or HTTP data which are returned to the user. The method solves a problem of compatibility between a network in the prior art and the information center network, and increment type disposition of the information center network can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer networks, in particular to a method and system for mapping HTTP services to an information center network. Background technique [0002] In the current network architecture, basic design problems and limitations hinder the further innovation and development of the network. Many researchers have proposed methods from scratch, such as Information-centric networking (ICN, Information centric networking) and so on. This kind of ab-initio approach discards all assumptions, design principles, and constraints of existing network architectures, and does not consider compatibility issues with existing networks. Such approaches have the potential to build a completely novel and robust network, but few are compatible with existing networks and thus cannot take advantage of the vast array of software and services already in use. However, it is obviously not feasible to rewrite a large amount of software so that it ca...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, traditional network software or services are designed and implemented based on 5-tuples (src-IP, src-port, dst-IP, dst-port, proto), so traditional network software or services cannot be directly used in information center networks
