Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a redirection method, a method, a device and equipment for acquiring terminal configuration data. Background Art

[0002] In the 5G messaging system, before the terminal uses the service, it is necessary to obtain the service-related configuration data from the platform side. After successfully obtaining the configuration, it can perform subsequent registration processes, use services, etc. In the 5G messaging system, it supports setting up multiple service configuration servers (main configuration server + additional configuration server), and the configuration data related to 5G messages can be provided by multiple configuration servers.

[0003] After the terminal sends a request to obtain configuration information to the network side, the main configuration server returns an HTTP200OK response to the terminal, and the message body carries the configuration data in XML format. If there are other additional configuration servers providing services, the XML message body can also carry relevant information of the additional configuration servers (including domain name, IP address, business ID corresponding to its configuration parameters, etc.), and the terminal then goes to each additional configuration server in turn to obtain configuration data.

[0004] In other message systems before the 5G message system, there was no need for multiple configuration servers to provide business configuration data. Therefore, the low-version terminals in the existing network do not support the configuration data acquisition method of carrying additional configuration servers in HTTP 200OK. The network side directly provides services by one configuration server.

[0005] In the prior art, high-version terminals in the 5G messaging system support 5G messaging service configuration data provided by multiple configuration servers, while existing low-version terminals do not support the configuration data acquisition method of carrying additional configuration servers in HTTP 200OK. After the 5G messaging network is built, it is necessary to migrate the original low-version terminal users to the newly built 5G messaging network. How to make the network compatible with low-version terminals is a problem that needs to be solved, and there is currently no solution. Summary of the invention

[0098] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages to be solved by the present invention more clear, a detailed description will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0099] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a redirection method, which is executed by a first configuration server and includes:

[0100] Step 101, receiving a configuration request sent by a terminal;

[0101] Step 102: Send a response message to the terminal according to the configuration request, where the response message is used to redirect the terminal to one or more additional configuration servers; wherein the response message carries relevant information of the one or more additional configuration servers.

[0102] The 5G message system is a full-network service, which is generally deployed in large regions. Several large regions are established, and each large region is responsible for providing services to users in several provinces. If the low-version terminal system is still used in which the default configuration server directly provides terminal configuration data, the business pressure on the configuration server of each regional node will be too great, which is not conducive to business disaster recovery. Therefore, an embodiment of the present invention provides a terminal configuration data acquisition method that supports both low-version terminals and high-version terminals. It can not only solve the drawbacks of the network side directly providing services by the default configuration server, but also be compatible with low-version terminals and high-version terminals at the same time. Moreover, the low-version terminal does not need to be modified (or only needs simple modification) to migrate to the new 5G message system, successfully obtain terminal configuration data and use services, which is conducive to a smooth transition of services.

[0103] In an embodiment of the present invention, two levels of configuration servers are deployed on the platform side, namely, a first-level configuration server (i.e., the first configuration server in this application) and a second-level configuration server (i.e., the additional configuration server in this application), wherein the first configuration server does not assume the function of issuing service-related configuration data, but is only responsible for directing the terminal to the additional configuration server adapted thereto, and it can also be understood that the first configuration server acts as a redirection configuration server.

[0104] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, step 102 includes:

[0105] Determining, according to the configuration request, a configuration version supported by the terminal;

[0106] In a case where the terminal supports the first configuration version, a first response message is sent to the terminal, where the first response message carries relevant information of an additional configuration server applicable to the terminal.

[0107] Among them, the terminal supporting the first configuration version can be understood as a low-version terminal, and the low-version terminal only supports services provided by one configuration server, so the first response message sent to the terminal carries relevant information of an additional configuration server. Optionally, the first response message is an HTTP 301 Moved Permanently message. In other words, when the first configuration server side redirects the terminal to the additional configuration server by returning an HTTP 301 Moved Permanently response, one configuration server provides configuration services for the terminal.

[0108] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, step 102 includes:

[0109] Determining, according to the configuration request, a configuration version supported by the terminal;

[0110] In a case where the terminal supports the second configuration version, a second response message is sent to the terminal, where the second response message carries relevant information of one or more additional configuration servers applicable to the terminal.

[0111] Among them, the terminal supporting the second configuration version can be understood as a high-version terminal, and the high-version terminal supports the provision of services by multiple configuration servers, so the second response message sent to the terminal carries relevant information of multiple additional configuration servers. Optionally, the second response message is an HTTP 200OK message. In this example, the XML of the 200OK message returned by the first configuration server to the terminal does not carry specific configuration data, but only carries relevant information of the additional configuration server. In other words, when the first configuration server side redirects the terminal to the additional configuration server by returning an HTTP 200OK response, multiple configuration servers can provide configuration services for the terminal.

[0112] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, determining, according to the configuration request, a configuration version supported by the terminal includes:

[0113] If the configuration request does not carry a provisioning-version parameter, determining that the terminal supports a first configuration version;

[0114] or,

[0115] If the configuration request carries a provisioning-version parameter, and the value of the provisioning-version parameter is a first value, determining that the terminal supports the first configuration version;

[0116] or,

[0117] If the configuration request carries a provisioning-version parameter, and the value of the provisioning-version parameter is a second value, it is determined that the terminal supports the second configuration version.

[0118] The "provisioning-version" parameter indicates the configuration file version number supported by the terminal.

[0119] As an optional embodiment, the relevant information of the additional configuration server includes at least one of the following:

[0120] Additional configuration server domain name;

[0121] Additional configuration server IP address;

[0122] The service ID corresponding to the configuration parameters of the additional configuration server.

[0123] In other words, if the configuration request sent by the terminal does not carry the parameter "provisioning-version", the first configuration server determines that it does not support the configuration method of the high-version terminal, and returns an HTTP 301 MovedPermanently response to it, which carries the domain name of an additional configuration server, and redirects the terminal to the additional configuration server applicable to the low-version terminal. If the terminal's configuration request carries the parameter "provisioning-version", the first configuration server determines whether the client supports the configuration method of the high-version terminal according to the value of the parameter "provisioning-version" in the terminal configuration request. If it does, it adopts the high-version terminal method, sends the relevant information of the additional configuration server to the terminal through HTTP 200 OK, and redirects the terminal to the additional configuration server applicable to the high-version terminal; if it does not support, the first configuration server returns an HTTP 301 Moved Permanently response, which carries the domain name of an additional configuration server, and redirects the terminal to the additional configuration server.

[0124] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a terminal configuration data acquisition method that supports both low-version terminals and high-version terminals. It can not only solve the drawback that the network side directly provides services by the default configuration server, but also is compatible with both low-version terminals and high-version terminals. Moreover, the low-version terminals do not need to be modified (or only need simple modification) to migrate to the new 5G message system, and successfully obtain terminal configuration data to use the service, which is conducive to a smooth transition of the service.

[0125] like Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for acquiring terminal configuration data, which is executed by a terminal and includes:

[0126] Step 201, sending a configuration request to a first configuration server;

[0127] For example, the terminal sends a configuration request to the first configuration server through a configuration information server address preset in the application or a configuration server address derived from the IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) of the user's USIM card.

[0128] Step 202: receiving a response message sent by the first configuration server, where the response message carries relevant information of the one or more additional configuration servers;

[0129] Step 203: Acquire configuration data from the one or more additional configuration servers according to the response message.

[0130] In an embodiment of the present invention, two levels of configuration servers are deployed on the platform side, namely, a first-level configuration server (i.e., the first configuration server in this application) and a second-level configuration server (i.e., the additional configuration server in this application), wherein the first configuration server does not assume the function of issuing service-related configuration data, but is only responsible for directing the terminal to the additional configuration server adapted thereto, and it can also be understood that the first configuration server acts as a redirection configuration server.

[0131] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, step 201 includes:

[0132] Sending a configuration request to the first configuration server according to the configuration version supported by the terminal;

[0133] Wherein, when the terminal supports the first configuration version, the configuration request does not carry a configuration version (provisioning-version) parameter, or the value of the configuration version (provisioning-version) parameter carried by the configuration request is a first value;

[0134] Alternatively, when the first terminal supports a second configuration version, a value of a configuration version (provisioning-version) parameter carried in the configuration request is a second value.

[0135] Among them, the terminal supporting the first configuration version can be understood as a low-version terminal, which only supports services provided by one configuration server; the terminal supporting the second configuration version can be understood as a high-version terminal, which supports services provided by multiple configuration servers.

[0136] Optionally, the "provisioning-version" parameter indicates the configuration file version number supported by the terminal.

[0137] Optionally, if it is a low-version terminal, the configuration request may carry a "provisioning-version" parameter or may not carry the "provisioning-version" parameter; if the "provisioning-version" parameter is not carried, it implicitly indicates that the terminal is a low-version terminal; if the "provisioning-version" parameter is carried, the value of the parameter should be different from the parameter value carried by the high-version terminal; if it is a high-version terminal, the configuration request must carry the "provisioning-version" parameter.

[0138] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, when the terminal supports the first configuration version, the first response message carries relevant information of an additional configuration server applicable to the terminal; wherein the terminal supporting the first configuration version can be understood as a low-version terminal, which only supports services provided by one configuration server, so the first response message sent to the terminal carries relevant information of an additional configuration server. Optionally, the first response message is an HTTP 301 Moved Permanently message.

[0139] Alternatively, when the terminal supports the second configuration version, the second response message carries relevant information of one or more additional configuration servers applicable to the terminal. Among them, the terminal supporting the second configuration version can be understood as a high-version terminal, which supports services provided by multiple configuration servers, so the second response message sent to the terminal carries relevant information of multiple additional configuration servers. Optionally, the second response message is an HTTP 200OK message. In this example, the XML of the 200OK message returned by the first configuration server to the terminal does not carry specific configuration data, but only carries relevant information of the additional configuration server.

[0140] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, the relevant information of the additional configuration server includes at least one of the following:

[0141] Additional configuration server domain name;

[0142] Additional configuration server IP address;

[0143] The service ID corresponding to the configuration parameters of the additional configuration server.

[0144] As an optional embodiment, step 203 includes:

[0145] Sending a configuration information request to one or more additional configuration servers indicated by the response message;

[0146] Receive configuration data sent by the one or more additional configuration servers.

[0147] Optionally, after the terminal obtains relevant information of the additional configuration server, it will only go to the additional configuration server to obtain configuration data under normal circumstances. The request process to the first configuration server will be triggered again in scenarios such as terminal reset and disaster recovery, thereby solving the business pressure and disaster recovery problems of the configuration server.

[0148] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a terminal configuration data acquisition method that supports both low-version terminals and high-version terminals. It can not only solve the drawback that the network side directly provides services by the default configuration server, but also is compatible with both low-version terminals and high-version terminals. Moreover, the low-version terminals do not need to be modified (or only need simple modification) to migrate to the new 5G message system, and successfully obtain terminal configuration data to use the service, which is conducive to a smooth transition of the service.

[0152] As an optional embodiment, the first sending module includes:

[0153] A determination submodule, used to determine a configuration version supported by the terminal according to the configuration request;

[0154] The first sending submodule is used to send a first response message to the terminal if the terminal supports the first configuration version, wherein the first response message carries relevant information of an additional configuration server applicable to the terminal.

[0155] As an optional embodiment, the first sending module includes:

[0156] A determination submodule, used to determine a configuration version supported by the terminal according to the configuration request;

[0157] The second sending submodule is used to send a second response message to the terminal if the terminal supports the second configuration version, and the second response message carries relevant information of one or more additional configuration servers applicable to the terminal.

[0162] or,
