A charging method of switch-in network

Abstract

The invention provides a network access charging method, where the network has at least an access device, a user accesses to the network by the access device and it includes the steps: on the access device, dividing the network resources possible to be accessed by users into different charging-type fee rates; as the user accesses the network, charging him according the configured fee rates. It can effectively divide the network resources, differentiates charged and uncharged resources and adopts different fee rates for different network resources to charge according to user access time or flow sum, thus making charging mode flexible and various and better meeting the charging requirements of different content providers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to network access technology, in particular to a charging method for network access. Background technique [0002] At present, broadband network technology is developing rapidly, but the billing model is stagnant. Traditional billing models such as figure 1 As shown, the billing information of different network services is not differentiated and lacks fairness, which greatly limits the popularization and application of broadband, and also limits the return on investment of operators; and the rigid billing strategy also affects operations. The implementation of flexible market expansion behaviors of suppliers. With the diversity of network services, operators hope to provide powerful, flexible, and complex commercial charging methods, such as implementing different rates for different services. The so-called rate refers to the corresponding relationship between specific fees and usage. , such as Monday to Friday 1.00 yuan / hour....

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

like figure 1 As shown, that is to say, no matter which type of website the user visits, their billing information is unified, and different billing information cannot be formed according to different types of visits, and it is impossible to distinguish which type of website is free to visit, and it is impossible to implement access Different types of websites charge different fees

In short, no matter it is billed by traffic or billed by time, there are obvious deficiencies because the statistics are based on the online time of users or the traffic of packets. Distinguish between billing and non-billing resources, and cannot use different rates for different resources. Furthermore, it cannot adapt to different content providers to implement a unified charging strategy for all traffic passing through the device
