Problems solved by technology

In addition, since PREF reports the online traffic information of users to OCS and PCRF in real time, if PCEF discards the reported message abnormally, the accumulated user traffic values ​​of OCS and PCRF will be inconsistent. The results will also be inconsistent

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method for reporting flow and a device thereof. The method comprises a step of receiving the first flow information of a user by a policy and charging enforcement and function (PCEF), and a step of sending second flow information to an online charging system (OCS) according to the first flow information such that the OCS carries out online flow charging on the user according to the second flow information. According to the method for reporting flow and the device of the embodiment of the invention, through a policy and charging rules and function (PCRF), according to the user first flow information sent by the PCEF, the sending second flow information is sent to the OCS, the OCS carries out online flow charging on the user according to the second flow information, the processing burden of the interface of the OCS for direct information exchange with the PCEF can be reduced effectively, and the problem of OCS and PCRF flow accumulation inconsistency caused by that the PCEF sends the user flow information to the OCS and the PCRF at the same time can be effectively avoided at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the communication field, and more specifically, relate to a method and device for reporting traffic. Background technique [0002] When a user accesses the network to use data services, the generated data traffic is charged by the Online Charging System (OCS for short), and is charged by the Policy and Charging Rules Function (Policy and Charging Rules Function, referred to as "PCRF") is responsible for policy and charging control. When a user triggers a data service, the online data traffic is generated on the policy and charging enforcement function (Policy and Charging Enforcement Function, referred to as "PCEF"). [0003] Currently, operators can formulate a monthly subscription package with limited traffic through a Fair Usage Policy (FUP for short). Specifically, for example, by limiting the user's traffic within a certain period (such as 1 month), the network rate is reduced when the data traffic g...
