Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the prior art, only one PCRF signaling processing subsystem (pcrf sub process system, pcsps) signaling processing node is supported in a set of PCRF servers. In this way, the number of simultaneous online users supported by a set of PCRF servers can only be fully configured. It can reach 100,000, but it is far from enough in the actual on-site network deployment. The site often requires a set of PCRF equipment to support millions or even tens of millions of users online at the same time.
[0006] To sum up, in the prior art, only one signaling processing node is supported in a set of PCRF servers, and the number of supported users cannot meet the requirements of network deployment

Embodiment Construction

[0026] The specific implementation manners of the method and device for allocating and acquiring spectrum resources provided by the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] An embodiment of the present invention provides a message forwarding method for a PCRF server with a policy control rule function. The PCRF server includes a plurality of message processing nodes, such as figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0028] Step 202, receiving a credit control request CCR message sent by a packet data network PDN gateway device;

[0029] Step 204, obtaining the network address information of the PDN gateway device from the CCR message;

[0030] Step 206, determining the message processing node corresponding to the network address information by searching a pre-stored first forwarding table according to the network address information, wherein the first forwarding table includes the corresponde...

Abstract

The invention discloses a policy and charging enforcement rules function (PCRF) server and a message forwarding method thereof. A plurality of message processing nodes are arranged in a PCRF server, so that a supported user number can meet the demand of network deployment. The message forwarding method is provided by the PCRF server; the PCRF server comprises a plurality of message processing nodes. The method comprises the following steps: receiving a CCR (credit control resuest) message sent by PDN gateway equipment of a packet data network; getting network address information of the PDN gateway equipment from the CCR message; determining the message processing nodes corresponding to the network address information by looking up a first forwarding table stored in advance according to the network address information, wherein the first forwarding table comprises a corresponding relation between the network address information of the PDN gateway equipment and the message processing node; forwarding the CCR message to the message processing node corresponding to the network address information.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a policy control rule function PCRF server and a message forwarding method thereof. Background technique [0002] Under the long term evolution (Long Term Evolve, LTE) network architecture, the wireless communication system consists of a radio access network and a core network. The radio access network is realized by an evolved base station (Evolved NodeB, eNB), and the core network is realized by an evolved packet core network (Evolved Packet Core, EPC). EPC consists of Mobility Management Entity (MME) network elements, Serving Gateway (SGW) network elements, Packet Data Network Gateway (PGW) network elements, policy control rule function (Policy and Charging Rules Function, PCRF) network elements to achieve. The PCRF network element provides relevant policy control and charging rules for the PGW network element through the Gx interface. [0003] Under the LTE non-roam...
