Embodiment 1

[0061] Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a traffic identification method, wherein the application server can directly send a traffic information notification to the policy control network element. Embodiment 1 is applied to the application server side, such as image 3 As shown, it specifically includes the following steps:

[0062] S301. The application server receives an access request sent by a terminal.

[0063] S302. Generate a traffic information notification according to the traffic characteristics of traffic generated by the service targeted by the access request received in S301.

[0064] Further, in this step, the application server may provide multiple services corresponding to different traffic, for example, in an instant messaging application, text-based message interaction and video-based interaction are services corresponding to different traffic. Therefore, the traffic information notification can be generated according to the traffic characterist...

Embodiment 2

[0106] Corresponding to Embodiment 1, a traffic identification method provided by Embodiment 2 of the present invention is applied to the policy control network element side, such as Figure 4 As shown, it specifically includes the following steps:

[0107] S401. The policy control network element receives the traffic information notification sent by the application server,

[0108] Wherein, the traffic information notification is generated by the application server according to the traffic characteristics of the traffic generated when its designated service is accessed, and the traffic information notification carries traffic identification information identifying the notified traffic, traffic characteristic description information describing the notified traffic characteristics, and Policy requests for advertised traffic.

[0109] In this step, the policy server may be an independent network element device or a device integrated on other network element devices.

[0110] S...

Embodiment 3

[0146] Embodiment 3 of the present invention provides a traffic identification method, wherein the application server can send a traffic information notification to the policy control network element through the aggregation server. Embodiment 3 is applied to the application server side, the aggregation server side, and the policy control network element side, such as Figure 7 As shown, it specifically includes the following steps:

[0147] S701. The application server sends a traffic information notification to the aggregation server.

[0148] Furthermore, the following scenarios may exist in reality: the same service provider has multiple application servers. In order to facilitate the management of multiple application servers, multiple application servers may not directly communicate with policy control network elements, but serve as multiple The application server sets up an aggregation server, so that the application server first sends the traffic information notificati...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a traffic identification method, an application server, and network element equipment. The application server generates a traffic information notification according to the traffic characteristic of the traffic generated during the access to designated business; the traffic information notification is sent to a strategy control network element; the strategy control network element determines the strategy provided for the notified traffic according to the pre-configured strategy, the current network state, subscription information with a service provider which the application server belongs to, and a strategy request for the notified traffic carried by the traffic information notification after receiving the traffic information notification; and the determined related information is sent to the network element used for traffic identification and strategy implementation. According to the traffic identification method, the application server, and the network element equipment, the identification of the traffic is more flexible and accurate. The invention relates to the field of mobile communication.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to a traffic identification method, an application server and network element equipment. Background technique [0002] With the continuous popularization of broadband networks, broadband data services are developing rapidly, and various applications emerge in endlessly. Some applications that occupy a large amount of traffic (such as P2P applications) occupy most of the bandwidth. Said that the network quality cannot be guaranteed, and the service quality of the operator will also have problems. The main reason for this phenomenon is that the operator has not effectively controlled and differentiated the network traffic used by the user, that is to say, the operator If you don't know what users are doing online, and you can't provide different service quality for different users, then you can't charge a relatively reasonable fee according to different network traffic. ...
