[0002] In the current proliferation of network communication protocols, compatibility issues are prevalent between different networks, making interoperability difficult. For example, the addressing mechanism of independently developed communication protocols is not well compatible with the IPv4 and IPv6 protocols commonly used in large networks, making data transmission between large networks challenging. Current solutions generally involve dedicated network transmission, which involves complex gateway configurations or manual configurations, resulting in low communication efficiency.

[0051] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0052] The video stream transmission method provided in this application embodiment can be applied to, for example... Figure 1 The application environment is shown below. Source device 101 is the video source device for the video to be transmitted. Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) is a terminal device provided by the network service provider to the user and installed at the user's premises (such as a home or business). It serves as the boundary device between the user's network and the operator's wide area network, acting as a bridge between the user's internal network and the external public network. Source CPE 102 is the customer-side client device installed at the source device. Target device 103 is the receiving device for the video to be transmitted, and target CPE 104 is the customer-side client device installed at the target device. Network control plane 105 is the core logic layer responsible for decision-making and control, and service gateway 106 is the video stream service anchor point responsible for scheduling video stream services. The customer-side CPE and service gateway are connected via the main network. The network control layer matches different PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) accounts and distributes them to the customer-side CPE and service gateway devices according to the different communication protocols used for user video stream transmission.

[0053] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a video streaming method is provided, which is applied to... Figure 1 The following steps are described using the source user-side CPE102:

[0054] S201, Receive the PPPoE account on the source Ethernet sent by the network control plane.

[0055] Among them, the source PPPoE account is the core identifier used for identity authentication, session establishment, and service billing when the source user-side CPE accesses the network via the PPPoE protocol.

[0056] It should be noted that the network control plane allocates a dedicated source PPPoE account to the source user-side CPE from the PPPoE account resource pool based on the CPE's registration information. Simultaneously, the network control plane updates its local mapping table, establishing a correspondence between the source PPPoE account, user equipment identifier, and service gateway address, laying the foundation for subsequent tunnel establishment and routing configuration. The user equipment identifier is the device identifier of the source user-side CPE. The network control plane encapsulates the allocated source PPPoE account and the basic configuration parameters required by the source user-side CPE into a unified configuration command. This command is transmitted using encryption to prevent the account from being stolen or tampered with during transmission.

[0057] S202, based on the source PPPoE account, dials to the service gateway so that the service gateway can create a PPPoE tunnel between the source user-side CPE and the target user-side CPE corresponding to the target end based on the obtained source PPPoE account, source user equipment identifier, and account matching information sent by the network control plane.

[0058] The account matching information includes the matching relationship between different PPPoE accounts and user device identifiers.

[0059] Optionally, the source user-side CPE reads the source PPPoE account and configuration parameters pre-issued by the network control plane from local storage, activates the PPPoE dialing module, and prepares to initiate a connection. Based on the source PPPoE account, the source user-side CPE dials into the service gateway. The service gateway forwards the source PPPoE account and source user device identifier submitted by the source user-side CPE to the authentication server. The server verifies the account matching information pre-synchronized with the network control plane; upon successful verification, it returns an authentication success response.

[0060] For example, a dial-up call is made to the service gateway based on the source PPPoE account, so that the service gateway verifies whether the source PPPoE account and the source user equipment identifier match based on the matching relationship between different PPPoE accounts and user equipment identifiers, and creates a PPPoE tunnel between the source user-side CPE and the target user-side CPE corresponding to the target end after the verification is successful.

[0061] After successful authentication, the service gateway negotiates network layer parameters with the source user-side CPE via IPCP (Internet Protocol Control Protocol), assigning an inner IPv4 / IPv6 address (for end-to-end data transmission) and an outer IPv6 address (for tunnel encapsulation) to the source user-side CPE, and generating a tunnel endpoint identifier. The service gateway then locates the corresponding target PPPoE account through the source PPPoE account, thereby obtaining the tunnel endpoint information of the target CPE. Based on the tunnel endpoint information of the source and target user-side CPEs, the service gateway establishes a bidirectional PPPoE tunnel locally.

[0062] S203, obtain the tunnel address of the PPPoE tunnel returned by the service gateway.

[0063] The tunnel address of a PPPoE tunnel is a set of addresses used to identify tunnel endpoints, locate transmission paths, and support data encapsulation and forwarding.

[0064] Optionally, after the service gateway constructs the PPPoE tunnel, it sends a tunnel establishment success response to the source user-side CPE, including the inner / outer address of the source user-side CPE, the tunnel identifier, and the inner address of the target end (for the CPE to encapsulate data). At the same time, the service gateway pushes the source tunnel association information to the target CPE, informing the target user-side CPE that it needs to receive tunnel data from the source user-side CPE. The target user-side CPE returns a response after confirmation.

[0065] S204. Based on the tunnel address, the video to be transmitted from the source end is transmitted to the service gateway through the PPPoE tunnel, so that the service gateway can send the video to be transmitted to the target end through the target user-side CPE.

[0066] Optionally, the PPPoE tunnel module of the source user-side CPE calls the encapsulation logic to perform layered encapsulation of the video to be transmitted. The inner encapsulation retains the original IP header of the video stream (using the inner IPv4 / IPv6 address assigned by the service gateway; the source address is the inner address of the source user-side CPE, and the destination address is the inner address of the target user-side CPE), ensuring end-to-end address recognition. The outer encapsulation adds a PPPoE frame header (containing the previously established PPPoE session identifier) ​​and an IPv6 header (using the outer IPv6 address; the source address is the outer address of the source user-side CPE, and the destination address is the outer address of the service gateway), used to locate the service gateway in the access network. Based on the obtained tunnel address (outer IPv6 address + session identifier), the source user-side CPE sends the encapsulated video to be transmitted to the access network. The video follows a preset routing policy and is directed to the service gateway. The entire process achieves isolated transmission through the PPPoE tunnel, preventing data from being illegally intercepted or tampered with.

[0067] The PPPoE session module of the service gateway listens on a designated port and receives data to be transmitted from the source user-side CPE. First, it parses the outer IPv6 header and PPPoE frame header, confirms the corresponding PPPoE tunnel through the session identifier, and verifies the integrity of the video to be transmitted. If the verification passes, it strips the outer encapsulation to obtain the inner video data stream and the inner address of the target user-side CPE. The service gateway queries its locally stored PPPoE account-device-address mapping table, and locates the corresponding target PPPoE account, the outer address of the target user-side CPE, and the session identifier based on the inner address of the target user-side CPE in the inner video data stream. Subsequently, the service gateway re-encapsulates the video data stream (the outer IPv6 address source is the service gateway, the destination is the outer address of the target user-side CPE, and the PPPoE frame header carries the target session identifier), and sends the encapsulated data packet to the access network where the target user-side CPE resides according to a preset routing policy.

[0068] The target user-side CPE listens for data packets on the access network. When it receives a data packet from the service gateway, it identifies the packet as belonging to an established PPPoE tunnel through the outer PPPoE session identifier and outer address, and forwards it to the local tunnel module. The tunnel module of the target user-side CPE strips the outer encapsulation of the data packet (IPv6 header and PPPoE frame header) and extracts the inner video data stream. Subsequently, according to the locally configured routing rules, it forwards the raw video data stream to the LAN (Local Area Network) port accessed by the target device, and finally delivers it to the target device (such as a monitor, storage server, video player, etc.).

[0069] In the aforementioned video stream transmission method, the following steps are taken: First, a PPPoE account from the source Ethernet network is received from the network control plane. Second, based on the source PPPoE account, a dial-up connection is established with the service gateway. This allows the service gateway to create a PPPoE tunnel between the source user-side CPE and the target user-side CPE, based on the obtained source PPPoE account, source user equipment identifier, and account matching information sent by the network control plane. The account matching information includes the matching relationships between different PPPoE accounts and user equipment identifiers. Third, the tunnel address of the PPPoE tunnel is obtained from the service gateway. Fourth, based on the tunnel address, the video to be transmitted from the source end is transmitted to the service gateway via the PPPoE tunnel, enabling the service gateway to transmit the video to the target end via the target user-side CPE. The above solution deploys CPEs at both the source and target ends, leveraging existing mature PPPoE technology and network control plane management capabilities to achieve network interoperability between different communication protocols. It establishes network matching relationships between multiple users through the network control plane and distributes the configurations to the service gateway, simplifying the amount and difficulty of dynamic configuration. By encapsulating video traffic in a dedicated link through PPPoE tunnels, it avoids mixing with other network traffic, reduces network congestion, and achieves efficient transmission of traffic between different communication protocols.

[0070] Optionally, in an exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, a method for transmitting video to a service gateway is provided, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0071] S301, determine the source LAN port used by the source user-side CPE to transmit the video to be transmitted.

[0072] Optionally, the source video device (such as a camera or video server) connects the video stream to be transmitted to a LAN port of the source user-side CPE via a network cable. The interface module of the LAN port of the source user-side CPE monitors the traffic input status of each port in real time. When a video data stream is detected, it records the physical LAN port number corresponding to the traffic (such as LAN1, LAN2, or based on the port MAC (Media Access Control) address). This port is the source LAN port.

[0073] S302: From the tunnel binding relationship sent by the network control plane, find the target WAN port corresponding to the source LAN port.

[0074] The tunnel binding relationship includes the binding relationship between the WAN port on the network side and the LAN port of the CPE on the source user side.

[0075] Optionally, the source user-side CPE reads the tunnel binding relationship pre-issued by the network control plane from its local non-volatile memory. The tunnel binding relationship is generated by the network control plane according to service requirements, and its core content is a one-to-one or many-to-one mapping relationship between the CPE's LAN port number and WAN port number (e.g., LAN1 bound to WAN2, LAN3 bound to WAN2), explicitly specifying which WAN port traffic should be forwarded through for different LAN ports.

[0076] The source user-side CPE uses the identified source LAN port as an index to perform a matching query in the tunnel binding relationship table. For example, if the source LAN port is LAN1, and the query finds its corresponding WAN port to be WAN2, then WAN2 is the target WAN port, which is pre-configured to carry video traffic for the PPPoE tunnel. After the query is complete, the source user-side CPE verifies the status of the target WAN port (e.g., whether it is started normally, whether PPPoE dialing has been completed and the tunnel has been established). If the port status is normal and the tunnel has been established, the subsequent transmission process begins; if the port is abnormal (e.g., not enabled) or the tunnel has not been established, the source user-side CPE records an error log and reports it to the network control plane for fault handling.

[0077] S303 transmits the video to be transmitted from the source to the service gateway via a PPPoE tunnel through the target WAN port, based on the tunnel address.

[0078] Optionally, the traffic forwarding module of the source user-side CPE forwards the video data stream from the source LAN port to the processing module corresponding to the target WAN port according to the binding relationship. This establishes an internal path for video traffic from the source LAN port to the target WAN port, avoiding confusion with ordinary data traffic carried by other WAN ports. After receiving the video data stream, the PPPoE tunnel module of the target WAN port performs layered processing on the data according to preset encapsulation rules. During the encapsulation process, the source user-side CPE binds the tunnel address (inner layer + outer layer address, session identifier) ​​to the target WAN port, ensuring that data is transmitted only through the PPPoE tunnel corresponding to that WAN port.

[0079] After encapsulation, the source user-side CPE sends the video data packets to the access network through the target WAN port. Based on the outer tunnel address and preset routing policy, the data packets are directed to the corresponding service gateway, completing the end-to-end data forwarding.

[0080] In this embodiment, by binding the LAN port to the WAN port, video traffic is strictly separated from other ordinary data, preventing non-video traffic from occupying bandwidth resources for video transmission and reducing video stuttering and latency issues caused by network congestion. The binding relationship between the source LAN port and the target WAN port is uniformly configured by the network control plane, avoiding randomness in traffic forwarding within the CPE and ensuring that the video stream is always transmitted through a preset PPPoE tunnel. The path is predictable and monitorable, reducing the risk of transmission interruption due to routing fluctuations.

[0081] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a video streaming method is provided, which is applied to... Figure 1 The following steps are explained regarding the business gateway in the process:

[0082] S401: After receiving a dial-up call made by the source user-side CPE based on the source PPPoE account, the system creates a PPPoE tunnel between the source user-side CPE and the target user-side CPE based on the obtained source PPPoE account, source user equipment identifier, and account matching information sent by the network control plane.

[0083] The account matching information includes the matching relationship between different PPPoE accounts and user device identifiers.

[0084] Optionally, the service gateway listens on a designated port to receive PPPoE dialing requests initiated by the source user-side CPE. It extracts core identification information from the request message, including the source PPPoE account and the source user equipment identifier. The service gateway then calls locally stored account matching information pre-issued by the network control plane (this information includes the mapping relationship between PPPoE accounts and user equipment identifiers, as well as the communication mapping relationship between the source PPPoE account and the target PPPoE account). Using the source PPPoE account and the source user equipment identifier as indexes, it first verifies the legality of their binding (to prevent account theft), then locates the target PPPoE account corresponding to the target end through the mapping relationship, and subsequently associates it with the target user equipment identifier and the network access information of the target user-side CPE.

[0085] The service gateway creates a bidirectional PPPoE tunnel based on the identification information and access parameters of the source user-side CPE and the target user-side CPE.

[0086] S402, feed back the tunnel address of the PPPoE tunnel to the source user-side CPE, so that the source user-side CPE can transmit the video to be transmitted from the source end to the service gateway through the PPPoE tunnel according to the tunnel address.

[0087] Optionally, after the PPPoE tunnel is created, the service gateway organizes the tunnel address set for the PPPoE tunnel, including the inner IPv4 / IPv6 address (used for end-to-end service identification) and outer IPv6 address (used for tunnel link routing) corresponding to the source user-side CPE, as well as key identifiers such as tunnel identifier and session identifier, and encapsulates it into a tunnel establishment success response message. The service gateway sends the encapsulated response message to the source user-side CPE through the PPPoE session channel. After receiving it, the source CPE completes the targeted encapsulation and tunnel transmission configuration of local video traffic based on this, preparing for subsequent video data transmission.

[0088] S403 routes the video to be transmitted to the target user-side CPE, so that the target user-side CPE can transmit the video to the target end.

[0089] Optionally, after the source user-side CPE completes the layered encapsulation of the video stream based on the tunnel address, it sends the video data packets to be transmitted to the service gateway. The service gateway identifies the corresponding tunnel through the tunnel identifier and session identifier, receives the data packets, and verifies their integrity. The service gateway strips the outer encapsulation of the data packets, extracts the target identifier from the inner address, and, in conjunction with local tunnel routing rules, re-encapsulates the video data packets into a tunnel format adapted to the target user-side CPE. Subsequently, it routes the data packets to the target user-side CPE through the access network where the target user-side CPE resides. After receiving the data packets, the target user-side CPE identifies the corresponding session through the tunnel identifier, strips the outer encapsulation to extract the original video stream, and then transmits the video stream to the target device (such as a monitor, storage server, or video player) according to the locally configured port forwarding rules.

[0090] The above method achieves accurate mapping between the source and target ends through account matching information, avoiding incorrect tunnel construction or chaotic data forwarding, ensuring that the video stream is transmitted only between the specified source and target ends, improving the accuracy of cross-network video transmission. Furthermore, the PPPoE tunnel provides a dedicated transmission channel for video traffic, and combined with dual-layer address encapsulation to hide the core address information on the end side, it not only isolates ordinary network traffic but also prevents video data from being illegally intercepted or tampered with, thus strengthening data transmission security.

[0091] Optionally, in one embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, a method for creating a PPPoE tunnel is provided, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0092] S501, find the user equipment identifier corresponding to the source PPPoE account from the account matching information.

[0093] Optionally, the service gateway can retrieve the user equipment identifier registered in the system for the source PPPoE account from the account matching information pre-issued by the network control plane. This identifier represents the official binding relationship between the account and the device, and is used to confirm the legitimate use of the PPPoE account by the device.

[0094] S502, if the user equipment identifier corresponding to the source PPPoE account is the same as the source user equipment identifier, create a PPPoE tunnel between the source user-side CPE and the target user-side CPE corresponding to the target end.

[0095] Optionally, the service gateway will compare the account registration device identifier found with the source user device identifier carried in the dialing request by the source user-side CPE. If they match, it will confirm that the source user-side CPE making the current dialing is the legitimate holder of the PPPoE account and has the authority to establish a tunnel, and then trigger the PPPoE tunnel creation process between the source user-side CPE and the target user-side CPE. If they do not match, it will be determined that the account is stolen or the device is illegally accessed, the tunnel establishment request will be rejected, the anomaly will be reported to the network control plane, and logs will be recorded for subsequent tracing.

[0096] In this embodiment, strong binding verification between account and device identifiers prevents PPPoE accounts from being stolen by unauthorized devices to establish tunnels for data transmission, avoids confusion in business ownership due to account sharing, and ensures that both ends of the subsequent video stream transmission are legitimate nodes authorized by the system, providing a preliminary guarantee for the integrity and confidentiality of cross-network video data.

[0097] Optionally, in one embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, a method for routing video to be transmitted to a target user-side CPE is provided, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0098] S601, obtains routing information and routing policies issued by the network control plane.

[0099] The routing information includes the source end identifier, the destination end identifier, the source PPPoE account of the source user-side CPE, the destination PPPoE account of the destination user-side CPE, the source LAN port of the source user-side CPE, and the destination LAN port of the destination user-side CPE; the routing policy includes the QoS (Quality of Service) identifier.

[0100] Optionally, the service gateway receives routing configurations from the network control plane via a dedicated control channel. This configuration includes two core components. The routing information contains key identifiers for end-to-end transmission, such as the source / destination identifiers (e.g., unique device identifiers), the source / destination PPPoE accounts (associating the identities of the CPEs at both ends), the source LAN port (video stream access port) of the source user-side CPE, and the destination LAN port (video stream output port) of the destination user-side CPE. This information constitutes the complete path identifier from source to destination, clearly defining the start, end, and intermediate node relationships of the video stream. The core of the routing policy is the Quality of Service (QoS) identifier (e.g., priority level, bandwidth guarantee threshold, latency cap), used to define the transmission quality requirements of the video stream.

[0101] The service gateway stores routing information in its local end-to-end routing table, establishing a multi-dimensional mapping relationship. Simultaneously, it associates QoS identifiers with the underlying forwarding mechanism (such as binding queue priority and bandwidth scheduling algorithms) to provide a configuration basis for subsequent forwarding. When the service gateway receives a video stream to be transmitted from the PPPoE tunnel of the source user-side CPE, it first parses the source PPPoE account (extracted from the tunnel session information) and source LAN port identifier (associated through inner encapsulation or tunnel binding relationships) in the data packet. Combining this with the local routing table, it locates the source identifier and target information (target PPPoE account, target identifier, and target LAN port) corresponding to the video stream.

[0102] S602 routes the video to be transmitted to the target user-side CPE based on routing information and routing policies.

[0103] Optionally, the service gateway performs differentiated processing on the video stream based on the QoS identifier in the routing policy. The service gateway then re-encapsulates the QoS-processed video stream according to the tunnel information (outer address of the target CPE, session identifier) ​​corresponding to the target PPPoE account, and routes the data packets to the target user-side CPE through the access network where the target user-side CPE resides. Simultaneously, traffic statistics (such as byte count and forwarding latency) are recorded during the forwarding process for subsequent billing and quality analysis. After receiving the video stream, the target user-side CPE forwards it to the target device (such as a monitor or storage server) according to the target LAN port in the routing information, completing the end-to-end transmission.

[0104] It should be noted that the network control plane can dynamically adjust routing policies (such as modifying QoS flags) to adapt to the needs of different video services (such as temporarily increasing the priority of a certain emergency monitoring video), without modifying the underlying device hardware, thereby improving service response speed.

[0105] In this embodiment, based on multi-dimensional routing information (account, port, endpoint identifier), the service gateway can accurately locate the source and destination of the video stream, avoiding routing confusion in cross-network scenarios.

[0106] In one embodiment, for user-side device access, in a video transmission scenario, the currently used communication transmission method is as follows: Figure 7 As shown in the diagram, firstly, a CPE device with PPPoEov6 capability is provided to the user. Before video stream transmission is initiated, a PPPoEov6 dial-up connection is established to the service gateway, and the CPE device obtains an IPv4 / IPv6 address. The network control plane provides the CPE with engineering-mode configuration of the binding relationship between the video source and the LAN port directly connected to the CPE and the dial-up WAN port, ensuring that video source traffic can reach the service gateway through the CPE's LAN and WAN ports. At this point, the routing from the end device to the service gateway has been established.

[0107] For network-side configuration, the network control plane records the communication relationships between user-side devices, such as... Figure 8 As shown, this includes the video source identifier, target network identifier, dial-up accounts for both parties, and the CPE interconnection LAN port. The network control plane translates the communication relationship into routing information and distributes it to the service gateway, establishing routing between the two users. At this point, the video source and destination networks have completed network connectivity. If network bandwidth is sufficient, the network control plane can dynamically issue QoS identifiers to the CPE devices to improve transmission quality. First, user-side CPE devices are provided to both users requiring video transmission. The network control plane manages the CPEs and issues dial-up accounts and LAN / WAN port binding relationships. After dialing, the CPEs can obtain IPv4 / IPv6 addresses, completing routing between the user devices and the service gateway. Subsequently, the network control plane issues the communication relationship and routing configuration between the user-side devices to the service gateway, thus establishing routing between the two parties. The video stream is transmitted through a PPPoEov6 tunnel. Utilizing the characteristics of the PPPoEov6 protocol, dialing can obtain IPv4 / IPv6 addresses; therefore, there are outer and inner IPv4 / IPv6 addresses. The outer address only needs to establish a route to the service gateway, ensuring the security of video stream transmission. The inner address completes user account-level network configuration through the network control plane, which can establish end-to-end tunnel routing and monitor duration, traffic, and bandwidth to meet the billing requirements of operators.

[0108] It should be understood that although the steps in the flowcharts of the embodiments described above are shown sequentially according to the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders.
