Multi-circuit circuit selection method and device

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-circuit circuit selection method. The multi-circuit circuit selection method comprises receiving a data packet sent from an access user and determining whether the access user is successfully authenticated or not; extracting a corresponding IP (Internet Protocol) address from the data packet and obtaining an authentication method and user attributes corresponding to the IP address when the access user is successfully authenticated; matching a circuit corresponding to the access user according to the authentication method and the user attributes and sending the data packet through a network exit corresponding to the circuit. The invention also discloses a multi-circuit circuit selection device. According to the multi-circuit circuit selection method and device, the circuit corresponding to the access user is matched through the IP address of the access user and the corresponding authentication method and user attributes and accordingly the limitations of multi-circuit circuit selection are reduced and the circuit selection can be flexible in comparison with a method that the circuit selection is performed on the access user through the IP address simply.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a multi-line route selection method and device. Background technique [0002] Multi-line routing refers to the method of selecting the most suitable physical line for the visiting users when there are multiple physical lines. The traditional route selection method is mainly based on information such as IP addresses and ports. However, as the organizational structure of enterprises becomes more and more complex, route selection based solely on IP addresses and port information cannot meet customer needs. For example, members managed by the same group on the domain may change, and since the IP addresses of member users are automatically assigned by DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), when members change, the IP addresses will also change. In this case, it is impossible to select routes for accessing users through IP address informa...

Problems solved by technology

The traditional route selection method is mainly based on IP address, port and other information. However, as the organizational structure of enterprises becomes more and more complex, route selection based solely on IP address and port information cannot meet customer needs.

For example, members managed by the same group on the domain may change, and since the IP addresses of member users are automatically assigned by DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), when members change, the IP addresses will also change. In this case, it is impossible to select routes for access users through IP address information

Therefore, adopting the existing method of routing based on IP address and port information increases the limitation of multi-line routing and makes routing not flexible enough
