[0002] More and more applications, such as AR (Augmented Reality) / VR (Virtual Reality) and precise industrial control, have put forward strict and clear requirements for the upper and lower bounds, or the upper and lower bounds (i.e. jitter) of network latency, which the "best-effort" service capability provided by traditional networks can no longer meet.

[0003] To meet the requirements of applications for deterministic metrics, existing technologies have proposed APN (Application-aware Networking). In APN technology, network requirements are defined based on different applications.

[0148] In the embodiments of this application, the term "and / or" describes the relationship between associated objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent three cases: A alone, A and B simultaneously, and B alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following associated objects have an "or" relationship.

[0149] In the embodiments of this application, the term "multiple" refers to two or more, and other quantifiers are similar.

[0150] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0151] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the information processing method provided in the embodiments of this application, applied to the APN entry node, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:

[0152] Step 101: Obtain the control policy, wherein the control policy is generated based on the application and the business flows included in the application.

[0153] In this embodiment, the APN ingress node can obtain the control policy from the APN controller. The control policy includes the priority of one or more service flows included in different applications. These service flows may include video streams, audio streams, text streams, control flows, etc.

[0154] For example, as shown in Table 1, the priorities of different business flows for each app can be set. The priorities in Table 1 can be in descending order or ascending order.

[0155] Table 1

[0156]

[0157]

[0158] As can be seen from the table above, in this embodiment of the application, the priority setting not only incorporates the application information, but also the specific business flow information of the application.

[0159] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the application, the control strategy further includes:

[0160] Information about the second application and / or the second service flow of the second application. Specifically, when the network is overloaded, traffic from either the second application or the second service flow must be discarded.

[0161] Information about the second application or the second business flow, such as the name or identifier of the second application, or the name or identifier of the second business flow.

[0162] In this way, the quality of network service can be guaranteed, and the problem of business processing failures when the network is overloaded can be avoided.

[0163] Step 102: Obtain the user's first request, wherein the first request carries information about a first application and information about a first business flow of the first application. The first application can be any application.

[0164] The user can be one or more. If there are multiple users, this is equivalent to receiving requests from multiple users for the same application. The information of the first application or the first service flow can be, for example, the name or identifier of the first application, or the name or identifier of the first service flow.

[0165] Step 103: Determine the processing path of the first service flow based on the first request and the control policy.

[0166] In this step, the APN ingress node can determine the processing path of the first service flow in conjunction with the control policy.

[0167] If the control strategy includes the priority of one or more service flows included in different applications, then in this step, the first priority of the first service flow can be determined based on the information of the first application, the information of the first service flow of the first application, and the control strategy. Then, the processing path of the first service flow is determined based on the first priority. For example, when the first service flow has a higher priority, a processing path is preferentially selected for it. Similarly, when the first service flow has a higher priority, a path with lower latency is preferentially selected for it.

[0168] In this embodiment, the APN ingress node can determine the processing path of the first service flow carried in the user's first request based on the control policy and the user's first request. Therefore, this embodiment can achieve differentiated network service guarantees based on service flows, thereby ensuring network performance.

[0169] In practical applications, for business flows of the same application with multiple users accessing it, since the users matched each time are different, there are different requirements for overall user experience, latency, etc., so it is necessary to make the service to each user basically consistent.

[0170] To solve the above problems, in the embodiments of this application, the following method can be used:

[0171] In this embodiment of the application, the first request further includes: the user's first service requirement information for the first application, such as bandwidth, latency, jitter, packet loss rate, etc.

[0172] When there are multiple users, the APN ingress node can obtain the average service demand of the multiple users when determining the processing path of the first service flow. Then, based on the average service demand, the current network status of the target user, and the first service demand information corresponding to the target user, the processing path of the first service flow for the target user is determined. Here, the target user can be any one of the multiple users.

[0173] Specifically, the APN ingress node can obtain the average value of the service demand itself, or it can obtain the average value of the service demand from the APN controller.

[0174] For example, taking latency as an example, the APN ingress node can obtain the latency requirements of multiple users, and then use the average of these requirements as the average latency. Next, based on this average latency, the current latency for a specific user, and that user's latency requirement, the path for the first service flow is determined. For instance, if the current latency for a user is greater than the average latency, and that user has a high latency requirement, then the path with lower latency can be selected for the first service flow.

[0175] In this way, the quality of service provided by the network to each user can be dynamically adjusted according to their different business needs and the current network conditions, thereby ensuring that each user receives a relatively similar network service.

[0176] When there are multiple users, the APN ingress node can obtain the average service demand of multiple users when determining the processing path of the first service flow. Then, based on the target user's first application information, the target user's first application's first service flow information, and the control policy, the first priority of the target user's first service flow is determined. Next, based on the first priority, the average service demand, the target user's current network status, and the target user's corresponding first service demand information, the processing path of the target user's first service flow is determined. Here, the target user can be any one of the multiple users.

[0177] In this approach, the method by which users obtain the average value of their service requirements can be referred to the description in the preceding embodiments. For example, taking latency as an example, the APN ingress node can obtain the latency requirements of multiple users, and then use the average value of the latency requirements of multiple users as the average latency value. Subsequently, based on this average latency value, the current latency of a particular user, the priority, and the user's latency requirements, the path for the user's first service flow is determined. For example, if the current latency of a user corresponding to the first application is greater than the average latency value, and the user has a high latency requirement and a high priority, then the path with lower latency can be preferentially selected for the first service flow.

[0178] In this way, the quality of service (QoS) for each user can be dynamically adjusted based on their different business needs and the current network conditions, ensuring that all users receive relatively consistent network services. Furthermore, the priority of different service flows is considered during the path determination process, thus better meeting the network's requirements for those flows.

[0179] Based on the above embodiments, in order for the APN ingress node to adjust the processing path of the first service flow according to the current network conditions and / or the user's current service needs, thereby providing network services that better meet actual needs, the APN ingress node can also add the first priority information and / or the first service flow information to the APN packet of the first service flow to facilitate subsequent packet processing. Furthermore, the APN ingress node can also add the user's service requirements, etc., to the APN packet.

[0180] Optionally, after step 101, if the control policy further includes information about the second application and / or information about the second service flow of the second application, then the APN ingress node may perform the following processing:

[0181] When the network is overloaded, if the information of the first application matches the information of the second application, the traffic of the first application is discarded; and / or, when the network is overloaded, if the information of the first service flow matches the information of the second service flow, the traffic of the first service flow is discarded.

[0182] That is, after receiving the first request, the APN ingress node determines whether the information of the first application matches the information of the second application, and performs corresponding processing based on the matching result. If they match, the corresponding traffic is discarded. Otherwise, step 103 can be executed. In this way, processing efficiency can be further improved and the impact on the network can be reduced. Alternatively, the above process can also be executed after step 103.

[0183] See Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart of the information processing method provided in the embodiments of this application, applied to an APN controller, such as... Figure 2 As shown, it includes the following steps:

[0184] Step 201: Obtain the control policy, wherein the control policy is generated based on the application and the business flows included in the application.

[0185] Specifically, in this step, the APN service can be enabled when the application registers with the APN controller. Through this registration process, the application can send information about its included service flows to the APN controller. Accordingly, the APN controller assigns an identifier to each service flow and sends the assigned identifier to the application.

[0186] Simultaneously, the APN controller generates a control policy based on the acquired information. Specifically, the APN controller can acquire information about the service flows included in the third application sent by the third application, and generate a control policy based on the information of the third application and the service flows. The third application can be any application.

[0187] The generated control policy may include the priority of one or more service flows included in different applications. For example, as shown in Table 1. Furthermore, the control policy may also include information about a second application and / or information about a second service flow of the second application; wherein, when the network is overloaded, traffic of the second application or traffic of the second service flow must be dropped.

[0188] Step 202: Send the control policy to the APN entry node.

[0189] After obtaining the user's request, the APN entry node determines the processing path of the business flow based on the request and control policy.

[0190] In this embodiment, the APN ingress node can determine the processing path of the first service flow carried in the user's first request based on the control policy and the user's first request. Therefore, this embodiment can achieve differentiated network service guarantees based on service flows, thereby ensuring network performance.

[0191] Building upon the above embodiments, the APN controller can further associate user information with user service requirement information upon receiving a user's request. User information may include, for example, a name, identifier, and network address. Service requirement information may include, for example, latency, jitter, and packet loss rate.

[0192] Based on the above embodiments, the APN controller can also determine the average service demand of multiple users according to their service needs, and send the average service demand to the APN ingress node. This facilitates the APN ingress node in adjusting the consistency of network services for each user.

[0193] like Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of an information processing system according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 As shown, the system may include clients, APN controllers, APN ingress nodes, APN egress nodes, etc.

[0194] In this embodiment of the application, by enhancing the APN controller, the service flow requirements of each user and application, as well as the latency of users arriving at the service node, can be collected to differentiate the transmission of different types of service flows and ensure the consistency of network services.

[0195] Among them, Figure 3 In this context, the APN controller may include:

[0196] Business Requirements Module: Used to identify business flows and assign identifiers to each business flow;

[0197] User identification module: Identifies user information, such as location, and associates user information with business requirement information;

[0198] Path detection module: Instructs the APN ingress node to perform path detection;

[0199] Demand Adjustment Module: Calculates the average business demand; distributes the average business demand to the APN entry node; rearranges priorities and formulates control strategies based on the attributes of different business flows of different applications.

[0200] Combination Figure 4 The implementation process of the information processing method in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below.

[0201] Step 401: The application registers with the APN controller and enables the APN service. During this process, the application reports information about its corresponding service flows, such as video streams, text streams, control streams, and audio streams, to the APN controller.

[0202] Step 402: The APN controller assigns an identifier to the service flow and sends the identifier to the application.

[0203] Step 403: The APN controller generates a control policy based on the current application and the application's business flow information.

[0204] The control strategy includes:

[0205] The priority of one or more business flows included in different applications;

[0206] When the network is overloaded, information about applications or business flows that need to discard traffic should be discarded.

[0207] Step 404: The APN controller sends the control policy to the APN ingress node.

[0208] Step 405: The user sends a request to the APN controller, which may carry service flow information and service requirement information. The APN controller forwards the request to the APN ingress node and instructs the APN ingress node to probe the information of each path.

[0209] Step 406: The APN entry node determines the application information based on the user's request and selects a path for the service flow based on the control policy, detection results, etc.

[0210] Step 407: When multiple users send requests for the same application to the APN controller, each request carries business requirement information.

[0211] The business needs of each user may be the same or different.

[0212] The APN controller sends instructions to the APN ingress node to probe the network latency of multiple users and obtain the average latency based on the users' requests.

[0213] Step 408: The APN entry node adjusts the user's actual latency requirements and selects a path based on information such as average latency, user needs, and current network conditions.

[0214] Step 409: When network load changes and user load changes, the APN entry node readjusts its requirements and network transmission strategy.

[0215] As can be seen from the above embodiments, in this application embodiment, based on the APN enhanced control plane, for multiple requests of the same application, the processing path is selected according to the multi-user path latency, thereby ensuring the consistency of network services; by carrying user and service traffic identifiers through the APN data plane, differentiated forwarding is adopted for different service flows of the same application to ensure network performance.
