Collection method of subscriber network use data

Abstract

Authentication and authorization are carried out for user by access equipment in network. AAA server recordes network resource information of users authenticated and authorized. In procedure of logging on network, information of using network recorded by route is sent to NSC in UDP format. NSC carries out aggregation processing for gathered information of using network. Real time associative analysis by an associative analysis server is carried out for aggregation treated information of using network and user's network resources information up loaded from AAA server so that detailed data of user using network is obtained. In the invention, detailed data of user using network can be obtained. Intension is compact. Final generated data of using network is directly positioned to a user so as to meet data requirement of multiple applications such as charging according to content, real time charging, destination IP charging, network monitoring and user behavioral analysis.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for collecting user network usage data, which belongs to the technical field of computer networks. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of the Internet, the number of enterprise networks, Internet service providers (hereinafter referred to as ISPs) and broadband Internet users is increasing rapidly, the types of network services are becoming more and more abundant, and the forms of network usage by users are becoming more and more diverse. In this case, network service operators and managers hope to know the detailed usage of network resources by users in a timely manner, so as to implement a more flexible billing method on this basis, plan rationally, and effectively manage and monitor network resources. [0003] How to efficiently, accurately, and real-time obtain user usage data on the network, the more common solution at present is to configure a monitoring server, and the monitoring server...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. This method requires an additional high-performance server. Since the amount of collected data is very large, it requires the support of massive storage devices, which increases the cost of networking

[0006] 2. The data collected by this method is only IP address, port number and other network resource occupancy data, but it is impossible to determine which user generated the network resource occupancy, and further processing is required before it can be used for content billing and other applications

[0007] 3. The real-time performance of this method is poor, and it cannot meet the real-time applications such as real-time billing and real-time monitoring.
