Regional Access Device QoS Update via Embedded Identifier Matching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current data transmission methods require manual configuration of Quality of Service (QoS) values at each network border device, leading to increased workload and inefficiency as data messages traverse different network areas with varying QoS values.
Innovation Solution
A method where regional access devices automatically update QoS values by including M pieces of QoS information in the data message, matching the device identifier with the regional access device to apply the corresponding QoS value, thereby eliminating the need for manual configuration at each border device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If manual configuration of QoS values at each border network device is used, then QoS values can be customized for different network areas, but the workload increases and efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The data message automatically carries QoS information through M pieces of QoS information embedded in its header. Each regional access device can autonomously identify its own device identifier, match it with the corresponding QoS information, and update the QoS value without requiring manual configuration or external assistance from network administrators.
Solution Approach 2:
QoS information for multiple network areas is pre-embedded in the data message header before transmission. The M pieces of QoS information are prepared in advance with device identifiers and corresponding QoS values, so that regional access devices can directly use them during transmission without real-time manual configuration.
2Extent of automation
If M pieces of QoS information are embedded in the data message, then automatic QoS update is achieved, but the message structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The data message header is designed with a universal structure that can accommodate M pieces of QoS information for multiple network areas. This extended header format serves multiple functions: carrying routing information, QoS parameters, and device identifiers, thereby managing complexity through standardized multi-functional design.
3Reliability
If border network devices modify QoS values manually, then QoS values can be updated, but the process becomes time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
Regional access devices automatically perform QoS value updates by matching their device identifiers with the embedded QoS information in the data message. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for time-consuming manual intervention while maintaining accurate QoS value application through automated identifier matching.
Solution Approach 2:
The data message carries feedback information in the form of M pieces of QoS information that include device identifiers. Each regional access device receives feedback about which QoS value applies to it through the identifier matching process, enabling rapid and accurate automatic updates without manual configuration delays.

AI summary
A data transmission method includes: determining, by a regional access device, a message that needs to be transmitted includes M pieces of QoS information; and after the regional access device determines that a device identifier in a first piece of QoS information is consistent with a device identifier of the regional access device, updating a QoS value of the message that needs to be transmitted with a first QoS value in the first piece of QoS information, and forwarding the updated message that needs to be transmitted. The first piece of QoS information is any one of the M pieces of QoS information.
