Virtual home gateway and its implementation method, home network center and data processing method

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for realizing a virtual home gateway, which relates to the field of communication technology. The messages sent by a plurality of physical home gateways to the virtual home gateway in the present invention respectively carry different VXLAN information or VLAN information; The VXLAN interface or VLAN interface corresponding to each physical home gateway receives the message sent by the corresponding physical home gateway according to the VXLAN information or VLAN information in the message; each VXLAN interface or VLAN interface is connected to the DHCP / DNS module through a network bridge , providing IP address allocation and DNS resolution services for the corresponding physical home gateway. Realize the N:1 migration of physical home gateways to virtual home gateways, reduce the consumption of virtual machine resources, make more intensive use of computing, network, and storage resources, and improve usage efficiency. The invention also provides a virtual home gateway supporting multiple tenants, a home network center, and a data processing method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a virtual home gateway and its implementation method, a home network center and a data processing method. Background technique [0002] Home access gateways have experienced SFU focusing on simple broadband services, HGU focusing on home connection centers, smart gateways focusing on value-added service centers, and are developing into virtual gateways focusing on complex cloud services. [0003] Traditional PG (Physical Gateway, entity home gateway) has many problems in the application of customized home gateway, such as poor ability to provide new services, long upgrade cycle, complex three-layer configuration and high failure rate, and difficult network evolution. VG (Virtual Gateway, virtual home gateway) is to move the traditional physical home gateway's three-layer routing, NAT (Network Address Translator, network address translation), user authentication, value-adde...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Although this method is clear and intuitive, the large-capacity characteristics of the home access network environment determine that with the continuous increase in the number of homes, thousands of virtual machines or containers are required to provide services for the corresponding homes, which consumes a huge amount of resources. Computing resources, where virtual machines consume much more resources than containers
