Problems solved by technology

[0004] (1) There is no function of directly judging the quality of the home network on the existing home gateway and set-top box equipment;
[0005] (2) The home network and the set-top box in the current network are on different network segments, and the existing three-layer protocol technology (such as ping test) cannot be used for network quality testing;
[0006] (3) At present, there is no defined Layer 2 protocol for detecting the quality of the home network in the communication technology

Embodiment 1

[0055] A method for judging the quality of a home network based on a custom Layer 2 protocol, such as figure 1As shown, the home network includes a set-top box and a home gateway, and the home gateway communicates with the terminal integrated management system through the Internet. The method for judging the quality of the home network includes the following steps:

[0056] (1) Set up a custom Layer 2 frame loss detection protocol in the set-top box and the home gateway. For the message format of the protocol, see figure 2 As shown, it includes destination MAC address field, source address field, Length / Type field and Option field, where Length / Type is 0x980B / 0x980A; Option is the payload part, including each byte of the following contents:

[0057] The 0th and 1st bytes are the payload length, according to the decimal system, the range is 46-1500, and the payload length is 46;

[0058] The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th bytes are reserved and filled with 00;

[0059] The fifth byte is ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a household network quality determination method based on a customized Layer 2 protocol. The method includes following steps: a customized Layer 2 frame-loss detection protocol is arranged in a set top box and a household gateway; the set top box conducts a Layer 2 broadcasting detection of the household gateway; if the set top box and the household gateway both have the Layer 2 frame-loss test ability, the set top box conducts a Layer 2 frame-loss test of the household gateway at intervals, and the Layer 2 frame-loss tests are conducted according to the protocol; the set top box regularly sends acquired Layer 2 frame-loss test data to a terminal comprehensive management system; and the terminal comprehensive management system diagnoses the network quality condition of the household network according to the Layer 2 frame-loss test data. According to the method, the customized Layer 2 frame-loss detection protocol is arranged in the set top box and the household gateway, the network quality of the household network can be directly and accurately determined, network management and fault positioning are easy, end-to-end guarantee is realized, the service quality is improved, and the method is especially helpful to smooth development of iTV service.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for judging network quality, in particular to a method for judging home network quality based on a self-defined layer-2 protocol. Background technique [0002] Broadband Internet audio-visual service, also known as iTV, is a new generation of interactive broadband video service launched by China Telecom. It connects to broadband network through TV, enjoys live broadcast, on-demand broadcast, rewatching programs, and uses value-added applications. [0003] With the vigorous promotion and development of iTV business, the number of users using iTV business has increased a lot. The pressure is enormous. Especially in terms of checking the quality of the home network, there is no effective technical means to accurately judge the network quality of the home network, which is specifically reflected in the following aspects: [0004] (1) The existing home gateways and set-top boxes do not have the function of directly judgin...
