Abstract

The invention, which relates to the IPTV field, discloses an automatic configuration method of an IPTV terminal, a DNS-SD server, and an IPTV system. The method comprises: receiving a query message, sent by an IPTV terminal, of a DNS-SD protocol; determining whether the IPTV terminal is a new IPTV user based on the query message; if so, requesting an authentication code to the IPTV terminal; after determination of effectiveness of an authentication code sent by the IPTV terminal, sending configuration information to the IPTV terminal; and carrying out configuration by the IPTV terminal according to the configuration information. According to the invention, a built-in customized software module is not need by the IPTV terminal; automatic configuration of the IPTV terminal is realized by using a standard DNS service discovery protocol, so that the IPTV terminal can download the corresponding software module and configuration automatically. The requirement on the IPTV terminal is low. The method and equipment can be popularized and applied widely. And the user can select an IPTV terminal freely on the market.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of IPTV, in particular to an automatic configuration method of an IPTV terminal, a DNS-SD server and an IPTV system. Background technique

[0002] Before using the IPTV service, an IPTV user needs to configure relevant service parameters on the IPTV terminal, such as EPG address, authentication server address, network authentication method, account number, password and other information. Due to the large amount of information, the configuration steps are complicated and error-prone, so the general operator needs to send a special person to install and configure on-site, which greatly increases the operating cost. At present, with the development of terminal intelligence, due to the improvement of terminal computing capabilities, the terminal software system can cooperate with the server to realize simplified configuration. However, in the existing configuration method, it is necessary to pre-install the spe...
