Embodiment Construction

[0025] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0026] When the AAA (Authentication-Authorization-Accounting, authentication-authorization-accounting) server cannot provide accounting services (for example, the AAA server is unreachable), in order to ensure that the bill is not lost or wrong, BRAS (Broadband Remote Access Server, broadband remote access Server) will generate a bill for the traffic / time used before the user goes offline during the period when the AAA server cannot provide billing services whe...

Abstract

The invention provides an accounting billing method and device. The method includes the following steps that: after the authentication of a user succeeds, a broadband remote access server (BRAS) obtains locally-stored bill information for the user, wherein the bill information contains consumed traffic or online duration of offline users which is calculated by the BRAS in an AAA (authentication-authorization-accounting server) inaccessible period; and an accounting message carrying the bill information is sent to the AAA server, so that the AAA server can perform deduction for the user according to the bill information. According to the accounting method and device provided by the embodiments of the invention, after online authentication of the user succeeds, the accounting message carrying the bill information is sent to the AAA server immediately, and therefore, the times sequence problem of the uploading and analysis of the bill information, and the going online again of the user can be avoided, and the AAA server can immediately perform deduction according to the bill information.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a charging method and device. Background technique [0002] BRAS (Broadband Remote Access Server, Broadband Remote Access Server) is an access gateway for broadband network applications. It is a bridge between the broadband access network and the backbone network, providing basic access means and management functions. The BRAS sends an authentication authorization request to the AAA (Authentication-Authorization-Accounting) server according to the relevant information of the user accessing the network, and the AAA server authenticates and authorizes the user according to the received authentication authorization request . Further, the AAA server charges for the usage traffic or online duration of the users who pass the authentication and authorization. However, when the AAA server is unreachable, because the AAA server cannot receive the accounting packets sent by the BRA...
