Embodiment 1

[0049] As shown in Figure 2, when the multipoint conference is not in progress, if MCU3 fails due to network reasons, the conference management station needs to switch MCU3 from active to standby. The specific steps are as follows:

[0050] Step 101: MCU3 regularly sends handshake information to the conference management station, if the conference management station does not receive the handshake information sent by MCU3 for a continuous period of time, the MCU3 is considered offline;

[0051] Step 102: After confirming that MCU3 is offline, the conference management station finds MCU3's backup MCUs are MCU4 and MCU5 according to the saved MCU backup relationship, and then selects the online backup MCU with sufficient resources and the closest one. In this example, MCU4 is selected as the new one. Main MCU;

[0052] Step 103: After the standby MCU4 for service switching is selected, the conference management sends the conference information on the MCU3 to the MCU4.

Embodiment 2

[0055] As shown in Figure 2, when the multipoint conference is not in progress, if MCU2 fails due to network reasons, the conference management station needs to switch MCU2 from active to standby. The specific steps are as follows:

[0056] Step 201: MCU2 regularly sends handshake information to the conference management station. If the conference management station does not receive the handshake information sent by MCU2 for a continuous period of time, it considers the MCU2 to be offline;

[0057] Step 202: After confirming that MCU2 is offline, the conference management station finds out that the standby MCU of MCU2 is MCU5 according to the saved MCU backup relationship. MCU5 can be selected as the new primary MCU.

[0058] Step 203: After selecting the standby MCU5 for service switching, the conference management sends the conference information on the MCU2 to the MCU5.

Embodiment 3

[0060] As shown in Figure 2, when the multi-point conference is in progress, if MCU3 fails due to network reasons, the conference management station needs to switch the MCU from active to standby, as shown in Figure 3, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0061] Step 301: MCU3 regularly sends handshake information to the conference management station, if the conference management station does not receive the handshake information sent by MCU3 for a continuous period of time, the MCU3 is considered offline;

[0062] Step 302: After confirming that MCU3 is offline, the conference management station finds MCU3's backup MCUs are MCU4 and MCU5 according to the saved MCU backup relationship, and then selects the closest online backup MCU with sufficient resources. In this example, MCU4 is selected as the new one. Main MCU;

[0063] Step 303: After selecting the standby MCU4 for service switching, the conference management station sends the conference information (including site ...

Abstract

This invention provides a system for backing up conference information in a multi-point conference including a terminal, a transmission network, a primary multi-point control unit MCU, a conference management stand and a standby MCU, in which, the stand is connected with the primary and the standby MCU via transmission networks to manage the MCU and store the conference information of the primary MCU and the backup relation of the primary and the standby MCU, said standby MCU is connected with the stand via network used as the backup of the primary MCU, when the network is faulty, the conference management stand sends the primary MCU information to the standby MCU so as to preserve the conference information.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of multimedia communication, in particular to a system and method for backing up conference information in a multipoint conference. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of modern network technology and broadband construction, multi-point conference systems have been widely used in the field of work and life. A multi-point conference system is a communication method that uses video conference technology and equipment to hold meetings between two or more locations through transmission channels. A typical multi-point conference system is shown in Figure 1, which includes terminal A, terminal B. Terminal C, terminal N and other terminals (including multi-point terminals and voice terminals), transmission network, multi-point control unit (also called MCU or multi-point switching platform) and other parts. [0003] As shown in FIG. 1 , when an MCU holds a multipoint conference, a node of...
