A method to solve pppoe dial-up failure of iptv set-top box

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of IPTV set top boxes, and particularly relates to a method for overcoming PPPOE dialing failure of an IPTV set top box. An optical modem is connected with a centraloffice device and an IPTV set top box separately, the optical modem is provided with a session detection module, a session recording module, a link sate sensing module, and a session clearing module,which are used for completing an information processing procedure and a troubleshooting procedure, the information processing procedure and the troubleshooting procedure are performed at the same time, the session detection module monitors a message received and transmitted by the optimal modem at any time, the link sate sensing module monitors an optimal modem LAN port, and determines whether dialing failure occurs, the session recording module creates a session recording file, the session clearing module reads the session recording file established by the session recording module, fills a PADT message with the session recording file, sends the PADT message, and terminates a PPPOE session between the IPTV set top box and the central office device. All modules perform respective functionsand run synchronously, thereby discovering and solving the dialing failure problem at fastest speed, improving efficiency and improving user favorability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of IPTV set-top boxes, in particular to a method for solving PPPOE dialing failure of the IPTV set-top box. Background technique [0002] In the broadband operator's existing network, the IPTV set-top box is connected to the LAN port of the optical modem, and communicates with the operator's central office equipment through the optical modem. When the IPTV set-top box is powered on, the problem of PPPOE dial-up failure occurs probabilistically, resulting in the IPTV set-top box being unable to obtain IP and unable to perform network communication, and users cannot watch IPTV programs through the IPTV set-top box. [0003] In the prior art, a Chinese invention patent document whose authorization announcement is CN100358336C and whose authorization publication date is December 26, 2007 has been proposed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. The technical solution disclosed in this patent document is as follow...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] (1) This technical solution sends a PADT message to notify the PPPOE server to end the session when the set-top box is powered on or the connection is abnormal. The technical solution is deployed on the operator's set-top box, which can only be the operator's set-top box or the The set-top box authorized by the operator can only solve the problem of dialing failure when used in conjunction with the optical modem. It cannot be adapted to all set-top boxes of the operator, and the scope of use is too narrow.

[0006] (2) This technical solution is only for a single set-top box, and cannot support multiple set-top boxes at the same time, and the scope of application is narrow

[0007] (3) Re-dial after an abnormal situation occurs, check the file SaveInfo.txt, and finally enter the stage of redialing. It is not possible to judge whether there is an abnormal situation in advance, and then deal with the abnormal situation. This method is not efficient and cannot improve the user's efficiency.
