Strategy based family network service identifying system and method

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system and a method for family gateway service identification which are realized on the basis of a strategy. The identification information of a family terminal is certified by an automatic configuration server, and the identification information of the terminal is reported to the automatic configuration server. After accomplishing certification, the automatic configuration server inquires the service information of the terminal from a service application system by using the identification information of the terminal, and then makes a request for obtaining a strategy matched with the service from a strategy server by using the terminal service information obtained. The terminal service flow strategy obtained by the automatic configuration server from the strategy server is sent to the family gateway. The family gateway realizes the identification and the control to the service flow through the identification information and the control method contained in the strategy. The system and the method of the present invention have the advantages that the service flow identification is accurate, the realization is simple, the operation is nimble, and the system and the method are easy for deployment and implementation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a system and method for home network service identification, which is implemented based on policies. Background technique [0002] Home network service flow identification refers to identifying and distinguishing service flow types of different terminals in a home in a home network control device (also commonly referred to as a home gateway). Service traffic identification is the basis for home network to realize quality of service (QoS) control, and plays an important role in home network solutions. [0003] Currently, there are several different ways of identifying a home network service. One of the known service identification methods is a static port binding method. In this method, a specific port is fixedly set in the home gateway for use by a specific terminal, so that the terminal can be identified through the port, and then the service flow can be identified. Another way is to automatically identify business traffic b...

Problems solved by technology

The above three known service identification methods all have disadvantages: the first method does not support dynamic ports, which is not conducive to user use; the second method needs to analyze each packet, so it has higher requirements on the performance of the home gateway , and it is impossible to distinguish between legal business traffic and illegal business traffic (because they all use the same application layer protocol); the third method is more complicated to implement, and requires interactive signaling between the business system and the home gateway. For the system The cost of renovation is high
