Problems solved by technology

[0002] The existing communication flow control and billing based on the Internet of Things platform only supports traffic control and billing with a single access point name (APN, Access Point Name), and does not support flexible traffic control and billing of multiple APNs, nor does it support Flexible flow control and billing for multiple target areas (that is, the target address of the visit)
In practical applications, there are often flexible flow control and billing requirements based on multiple APNs and / or multiple target areas; therefore, because the existing communication flow control and billing based on the Internet of Things platform does not support multiple APNs, and / or or flexible flow control and billing for multi-target areas, which cannot meet some current practical application requirements, causing inconvenience

Embodiment 1

[0037] First introduce the communication service system architecture applicable to the communication flow control of the embodiment of the present invention, such as figure 1 As shown, the communication service system includes a forwarding layer device and a control layer device. The forwarding layer is mainly used to provide a transmission channel for user traffic and build a highly reliable data transmission channel between the user and the destination node. The topology design of the forwarding layer minimizes The network device node at the forwarding level is the criterion to provide a better data transmission experience; the control layer mainly provides the management and control function for user traffic, through which the control layer can flexibly control the online behavior of user equipment. The control includes: blocking, allowing, Redirection, etc. In addition, the control layer is also used to implement the charging function for the user equipment to access the In...

Embodiment 2

[0055] Attached below figure 2 Introduce the IP allocation process for new users who apply for network access under the communication service system of the embodiment of the present invention, mainly including:

[0056] Step 201, a new user applies for network access, and completes the new user registration through the CRM server.

[0057] In step 202, the CRM server assigns APN information and source IP information to new users who apply for network access, wherein the APN information includes APN user name and password, and the source IP is the source address information of the user equipment's online behavior.

[0058] In steps 203-204, the CRM server sends the APN information and source IP information of the user equipment newly applying for network access to the AAA server, and the AAA server saves them. It should be noted that, after the CRM server assigns source IP information to a new user applying for network access, it does not directly provide the source IP inform...

Embodiment 3

[0065] Combine below image 3 Introduce the general process of communication flow control under the communication service system of the embodiment of the present invention, mainly including:

[0066] In steps 301-302, the CRM server configures a control policy for the user equipment newly applying for network access, and sends the control policy to the policy server.

[0067] In step 303, the policy server synchronizes the control policy of the user equipment newly applying for network access to the PCRF.

[0068] Step 304, the user equipment accesses the network, and sends a network access request to the LNS, and the request carries the APN information, source IP information, and destination IP information of the user equipment.

[0069] Step 305, after receiving the network access request sent by the user equipment, the LNS needs to initiate an authentication request to the AAA server to determine whether the user equipment has the identity and authority to access the netwo...

Abstract

The invention discloses a communication flow control method and system. The method includes: pre-configuring a control strategy based on at least one communication service in PCRF, each communication service including communication service identifier, APN information and target area information; PCRF based on the pre-configured The control strategy controls the network access behavior of the user equipment, and generates a network bill with the corresponding communication service identifier according to the APN information and target area information of the user equipment to access the network and sends it to the billing server; the billing server Call bills and communication service identifiers accumulate corresponding communication traffic, and send the obtained accumulated traffic bills to the CRM server; the CRM server triggers traffic control execution actions for communication services based on the obtained accumulated traffic bills and pre-configured control strategies The instruction is sent to the PCRF; the PCRF executes the flow control operation on the corresponding communication service according to the instruction received.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to a communication flow control method and system. Background technique [0002] The existing communication flow control and billing based on the Internet of Things platform only supports traffic control and billing with a single access point name (APN, Access Point Name), and does not support flexible traffic control and billing of multiple APNs, nor does it support Flexible traffic control and billing for multiple target areas (that is, the target addresses of visits). In practical applications, there are often flexible flow control and billing requirements based on multiple APNs and / or multiple target areas; therefore, because the existing communication flow control and billing based on the Internet of Things platform does not support multiple APNs, and / or Or flexible flow control and billing in multiple target areas, which cannot meet some current practical...
