[0043] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 4 The present invention describes a 5G network element management method based on proxy isolation.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a 5G network element management method based on proxy isolation, which is applied to a network management end, including:

[0046] Step 102, sending a management request message to the network management agent, and receiving a management response message returned by the network management agent, to establish a first link;

[0047] Step 104, managing the 5G network element based on the first link, the network management agent and the second link;

[0048] The management request information includes network management terminal connection information and management network element information; the management network element information corresponds to one or more 5G network elements; the management response information is generated based on the registration information of the 5G network element corresponding to the management network element information on the network management agent;

[0049] The first link refers to the link between the network management terminal and the network management agent terminal; the second link refers to the link between the network management agent terminal and the 5G network element corresponding to the managed network element information.

[0050] In this embodiment, the network management end is OMC (Operation and Maintenance Center), the managed object of the OMC (i.e., the object that needs access management) is NF (Network Functions, 5G network element), and a network management agent CP-Agent is arranged between the OMC and the NF.

[0051] The OMC system manages network elements (i.e., step 102) is equivalent to a data exchange process with the CP-Agent. The OMC system notifies the CP-Agent of two parts of information, namely, the OMC system connection information and the network element information to be managed, through a management request message (i.e., management request information).

[0052] The CP-Agent can be connected to one or more OMC systems, and the CP-Agent distinguishes multiple OMC systems according to the OMC system connection information.

[0053] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:

[0054] By introducing the network management agent, the direct communication between the 5G network elements and the network management end is isolated. On the basis of establishing a highly efficient network element management link, the reliability of management is guaranteed and the security risks in the network element management process are effectively reduced.

[0055] According to the above embodiment, in this embodiment:

[0056] The first link is a link based on a heartbeat mechanism; a communication protocol of the first link is different from a communication protocol of the second link.

[0057] In a preferred implementation, the CP-Agent actively initiates a heartbeat request.

[0058] In a preferred embodiment, the first link is a GRPC-based communication link, and the relevant management interface is defined as follows:

[0059] 1) Rpc interface definition (CP-Agent):

[0060] service ConfigCmdService{

[0061] / / omc send to nf config and connect nf

[0062] rpc sendOmcConfig(OmcConfigReq)returns(OmcConfigResp){}

[0063] }

[0064] 2) Rpc message definition:

[0065] Management request message:

[0066]

[0067]

[0068] Management response message:

[0069]

[0070] The relevant heartbeat southbound interface is defined as follows:

[0071] 1) Rpc interface definition (CP-Agent):

[0072] service HeartBeatReportService{

[0073] rpc HeartBeatReport(HeartReq)returns(HeartRsp){}

[0074] }

[0075] 2) Rpc message definition:

[0076] Request message:

[0077]

[0078]

[0079] Response message:

[0080] message HeartRsp

[0081] {

[0082] string result=1; / / 0succ,other fail

[0083] }

[0084] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:

[0085] Based on the previous embodiment, the management efficiency of the 5G network element is improved through the first link based on the heartbeat mechanism; through the first link and the second link with different communication protocols, the 5G network element and the network management terminal are better isolated, the communication risk is reduced, and the reliability of the management process is improved.

[0086] According to any of the above embodiments, in this embodiment:

[0087] The network management terminal connection information includes a first address for heartbeat detection, a second address for alarm reporting, and a third address for reporting signaling tracking information; the managed network element information includes a network element type and a network element ID.

[0088] In a preferred embodiment, the network element information that needs to be managed includes the network element type and the network element ID, and the OMC system connection information includes the GRPC server address (first address) used for functions such as heartbeat detection, the Kafka address (second address) used for alarm reporting, and the GRPC server address (third address) used for reporting signaling tracking information. The relationship between the managed network element information and the OMC system communication address information is a many-to-one relationship, that is, one OMC system will manage multiple network elements, and different OMC systems will manage different network elements. CP-Agent will distinguish whether it is the same OMC system based on whether the connection address (that is, the key is a combination of the three connection addresses described above) is the same. Therefore, CP-Agent manages the OMC system's management information in the following way: Figure 3 The relationships shown are managed.

[0089] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:

[0090] Based on the first address, the second address and the third address, the specific task communication address of the network element management is clarified, and the network element management efficiency is further improved.

[0091] like Figure 2As shown, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a 5G network element management method based on agent isolation, which is applied to a 5G network element, wherein the 5G network element is configured with the address and port information of the network management agent, including:

[0092] Step 202, sending a registration request message to the network management agent, and receiving a registration response message returned by the network management agent, and establishing a second link;

[0093] Step 204, receiving management information of the network management terminal based on the second link, the network management agent terminal and the first link;

[0094] Among them, the registration request information is sent to the network management agent according to the address and port information of the network management agent; the second link refers to the link between the network management agent and the 5G network element; the first link refers to the link between the network management agent and the network management terminal formed according to the registration information of the 5G network element.

[0095] In this embodiment, the network management end is OMC (Operation and Maintenance Center), the managed object of the OMC (i.e., the object that needs access management) is NF (Network Functions, 5G network element), and a network management agent CP-Agent is arranged between the OMC and the NF.

[0096] In a preferred embodiment, the 5G network element repeatedly sends registration request information to the network management agent (i.e., the first half of step 202) until receiving the registration response information returned by the network management agent, and the second link is successfully established.

[0097] That is to say, during the NE startup process (CP-Agent configuration), if CP-Agent is not started, registration is initiated every 5 seconds until the registration is successful.

[0098] Regardless of whether the NE is successfully registered, the NE can be started to complete the service function.

[0099] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:

[0100] By introducing the network management agent, the direct communication between the 5G network elements and the network management end is isolated. On the basis of establishing a highly efficient network element management link, the reliability of management is guaranteed and the security risks in the network element management process are effectively reduced.

[0101] According to the above embodiment, in this embodiment:

[0102] The second link is a link based on a heartbeat mechanism; the communication protocol of the first link is different from the communication protocol of the second link; the registration request information includes a network element service IP address, a service port, a network element type, and a network element identifier.

[0103] In a preferred implementation, after successful registration, the network element actively initiates a heartbeat request once every 5 seconds.

[0104] In a preferred embodiment, the second link is a GRPC-based communication link. The network element configures the CP-Agent GRPC service IP address and port information. When the network element is started, if the configuration information is obtained according to the configuration, a registration message is actively initiated to carry the network element GRPC service IP address, GRPC service port, network element type, and network element identifier. Receiving a response indicates that the registration is successful.

[0105] Correspondingly, the interface related to 5G network elements, namely the heartbeat northbound interface, is defined as follows:

[0106] 1) Rpc interface definition

[0107] service HeartBeatService{

[0108] rpc heartBeat(HeartBeatReq)returns(HeartBeatRsp){}

[0109] }

[0110] 2) Rpc message definition:

[0111] Request message:

[0112]

[0113] Response message:

[0114] message HeartBeatRsp

[0115] {

[0116] string result=1; / / 0succ,other fail

[0117] }

[0118] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:

[0119] Based on the previous embodiment, the management efficiency of the 5G network element is improved through the second link based on the heartbeat mechanism; through the first link and the second link with different communication protocols, the 5G network element and the network management terminal are better isolated, the communication risk is reduced, and the reliability of the management process is improved.

[0120] The following provides a complete implementation example from the perspective of signal interaction between the network management end, the network management agent end, and the 5G network element end. In this implementation example:

[0121] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the management process is divided into two parts. The first part is the registration of NF to CP-Agent. The second part is the active request from OMC system to establish NF connection management, which includes:

[0122] 1. The network element registers with CP-Agent by calling the GRPC interface;

[0123] 2. The network element actively initiates a heartbeat request to keep the link normal;

[0124] 3. The OMC system configures the CP-Agent information (IP, PORT, NE type) to manage related NEs, and the CP-Agent replies that the establishment is successful;

[0125] 4. CP-Agent actively initiates a heartbeat request.

[0126] The purpose of this embodiment is to:

[0127] In order to realize the effective management of 5G network elements by the OMC system, a management process method is provided. Through this management process method, the OMC network management and 5G network elements can exchange connection information with each other, establish heartbeat notification connections with each other through the connection information, and realize the efficient management of 5G network elements by the OMC network management.

[0128] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:

[0129] The method of efficiently completing network management is realized under the management of the OMC system through the grpc interface protocol and in the collaborative work of the agent and the 5G network element. The recorded network element management process of this embodiment has a high reference value for the function realization in similar scenarios.
