Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, although the call control server providing Internet telephony service has functions such as user authentication function, session control function, and billing control that can be used in other application servers essentially, the call control server only performs call control function operations for telephony services, This leads to the problem of not providing any user authentication, session control and accounting control for other application servers
[0007] In addition, companies that provide online shops need to perform user information control and billing for each user individually, and users also need to have user IDs and passwords registered with individual online shops and be charged by each online shop, which leads to troublesome processing The problem
Patent Document 1 describes a technique of collecting information from other servers, but this technique cannot solve the above-mentioned problems in the case where a plurality of companies conduct their own billing services

Embodiment 1

[0026] figure 1 An example of the structure of the system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention has been described. figure 1 In , the client 100 , the relay server 101 and the application server 103 are connected to each other through the network 102 . Not only a personal computer (PC, Personal Computer), but also various types of terminals, such as ordinary telephones and cellular phones, can be connected as clients.

[0027] When the client computer 100 received the service sent by the application server 103, an application session was usually set directly between the client computer 100 and the application server 103, and data was sent / received through this session. 103 Receive service. For example, a user operating the client computer 100 activates a web browser, accesses a web server provided by the application server 103, and purchases a product. In the present invention, when the user operating the client 100 receives the service of the application serve...

Embodiment 2

[0049] Figure 4 An example of the session disconnection processing program of the client 100, the relay server 101, and the application server 103 according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention has been described.

[0050] When the use of the service provided by the application server 103 is completed, the client 100 can disconnect not only the application session but also the SIP session. More specifically, the client 100 sends a "bye (BYE)" message to the relay server 101 using the client disconnection request sending section 121 . The relay server 101 receives the “goodbye” message through the relay server disconnection request relay component 122 and relays it to the application server 103 . The application server 103 receives the "goodbye" message through the application server disconnection request receiving part 123, sends a "200 response" through the application server disconnection response sending part 124, and disconnects the SIP session. The relay server 101...

Embodiment 3

[0059] Figure 5 An example of the billing processing program of the client 100, the relay server 101, and the application server 103 according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention is described.

[0060] exist Figure 5 Among them, the application server 103 has an application server billing component 129 . The application server service component 120 provides services to the client 100, but when a need for accounting arises from the provided service, it notifies the application server accounting component 129 of it. The application server accounting section 129 receives the accounting information and notifies it to the relay server 101 using the accounting information notification section 130 .

[0061]Relay server 101 receives billing information using application billing section 131, and performs billing for the user notified from application server 103 for the application server. For example, when the application server 103 was providing online shopping website serv...

Abstract

An application service delivery method capable of making use of an existing SIP server function and easily carrying out authentication and billing. When a user who operates a client requests a service delivered by an application server, the present method establishes an SIP session between a client and application server using a standard SIP procedure via a relay server, and provides a direct service between the client and application server after establishment of the SIP session. The relay server carries out user authentication in the stage of establishment of the SIP session, which eliminates the necessity for the authentication function of the application server and makes it possible to easily construct the application server.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a service provision scheme in which a plurality of servers cooperate with each other by using a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP, Session Initiation Protocol) to provide services to users. Background technique [0002] Due to the spread of the Internet in recent years and the increase in the number of so-called broadband users accessing the Internet using a bandwidth of several megabits per second or higher, demand for services utilizing broadband networks is growing. [0003] One of these broadband services is Internet telephony service. Through Internet telephony, the sender's terminal sends a sending request message directed to the receiver's terminal to a call control server provided by a network using a call control protocol. The SIP specified by RFC3261 (Request For Comments) of ITEF (Internet Engineering Task Force, Internet Engineering Task Force) Recommendation H.323. The call control server performs authentication o...
