Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although PPPoE has many commercial advantages, it has the following problems when it is applied to the specific IP set-top box business, that is, after the set-top box is restarted (shutdown restart or soft restart), it takes about three minutes to re-establish a connection with the server. The status of the connection can be detected through the TV terminal interface
The above problems have been confirmed by a large number of tests. Obviously, from the user's point of view, this is unacceptable

Embodiment 1

[0034] Please see Fig. 1, Fig. 1 is a flow chart of the soft restart of the IP set-top box in the method for quickly accessing the network when the IP set-top box restarts according to the present invention. It can be seen from the figure that the soft restart of the IP set-top box includes the following detailed steps:

[0035] ① The user triggers the restart operation of the IP set-top box through the operation interface on the client, and the user starts the IP set-top box through the restart mark on the user interface on the set-top box without disconnecting the power supply of the IP set-top box.

[0036] ②After the IP set-top box receives the restart command sent by the client, it first sends a disconnection PPPoE connection message to the remote server. If the sending is successful, it will execute step ③. If the sending fails, it will resend. If the server receives the PADT message, perform step ③, and if the remote server still does not receive the message after resen...

Embodiment 2

[0041] Please see Fig. 2, Fig. 2 is a flowchart of shutting down and restarting the IP set-top box in the method for fast accessing the network when the IP set-top box restarts according to the present invention. As can be seen from the figure, the method for quickly accessing the network when the IP set-top box is shut down and restarted includes the following steps:

[0042] ①Firstly, the user presses the power button on the IP set-top box to perform shutdown operation;

[0043] ② Start the power interruption service program in the IP set-top box, and the operation of sending a message to the remote server is triggered by the power supply terminal service program;

[0044] ③The IP set-top box sends a message to the remote server to disconnect the PPPoE connection, and the remote server disconnects the connection with the PPPoE client after receiving the message;

[0045] ④The power of the IP set-top box is disconnected first, and then restarted;

[0046] ⑤ After the IP set...

Abstract

The invention relates to an IP set-top box(STB) opens again when fast turns on the network the method, its characteristic lies in by the customer end IP set-top box (STB) terminated PPPoE before heavy start pass machine-hour to the long-distance server transmission the connection the PADT text of a telegram, after the long-distance server receives the PADT text of a telegram first to release and the customer end network level connection, takes back originally assigns for the customer end IP address, then the link controlling agreement release data link layer connection, finally releases the physical connection, after the IP set-top box(STB) starts again, again between fast establishment customer end and long-distance server connection. This invention, an IP set-top box (STB), opens again when fast turns on the network the method, after the massive experiments proved this method has the feasibility and the stability, the connection long-distance server speed obvious improvement, greatly saved the user to connect the server the time and has promoted the IP set-top box (STB) performance in the certain degree.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method for fast accessing a network when an IP set-top box is restarted. Background technique [0002] IP set-top box is a brand-new technology that utilizes broadband cable TV network, integrates various technologies such as Internet, multimedia, and communication, and provides home users with various interactive services including digital TV. One of the biggest advantages of an IP set-top box is that it is connected to the network. With an ordinary TV or computer as the terminal and the network as the transmission medium, it can enjoy network services to the maximum extent. As we all know, there are multiple ways for an IP set-top box to connect to a remote server, such as DHCP, PPPoE, LAN, wireless, etc., but the present invention only relates to the PPPoE way. [0003] In recent years, network data services have developed rapidly, and broadband users have grown explosively. In or...
