Embodiment
With reference to the accompanying drawings the present invention is described in more detail, exemplary embodiment of the present invention is wherein described.In the accompanying drawings, identical label represents identical or similar assembly or element.
Fig. 1 is according to the schematic diagram of the application scenarios 100 of the embodiment of the present invention.Application scenarios 100 comprises: AAA102, NAS104, PDSN (Packet Data Serving Node, packet data serving node) 106 and subscriber equipment 108.
NAS104 is a kind of remote access access device, between communication network and IP network, can realize remote dial access function, by remote dial user (as subscriber equipment 108) access IP network.NAS104 can send charging message to AAA102, and AAA102 can generate according to charging message user's ticket.
AAA102 provides authentication，authorization，accounting function to packet data network.AAA102 communicates by letter with PSDN106 by IP, and in communication network (as cdma network), complete the authentication carrying out being connected with subscriber equipment 108 about PPP (Point to Point Protocol, point to point protocol), mandate (distribution of service profile, key and management), charging etc.The user that AAA102 can select potential abuse network according to user's ticket is in the past (such as potential P2P user, the user of form when the very high and set meal of Mean Speed is bag in cycle front-month), and by traffic monitoring service contracting in the user of abuse network.The charging message sending according to NAS, AAA102 can add up the user's of the traffic monitoring business of having contracted flow, when flow reaches default thresholding, by NAS104, user's (as subscriber equipment 108) is implemented to certain Service control strategy, for example, user demoted or carry out the restriction of flank speed.When the flow of subscriber equipment 108 reaches thresholding, AAA102 can change user's authorization attribute, and notifies NAS104.NAS104 carries out flow control by losing the modes such as table and/or buffer memory to subscriber equipment 108.
PDSN106 can set up, safeguards and stop the link layer speech channel of subscriber equipment 108.For example, in cdma network, PDSN106 and NAS104 can realize the control to customer flow when customer flow reaches thresholding.
Fig. 2 is according to the flow chart of the flux monitoring method 200 of the embodiment of the present invention.
In step 202, AAA receives the charging message that NAS sends.
In step 204, AAA according to charging message predetermined flux cumulating in the cycle flow to user add up.
In step 206, when flux cumulating reaches thresholding, AAA change user's authorization attribute, and by the new authorization attribute notice NAS after change.
In step 208, NAS controls user's service traffics according to new authorization attribute.
Fig. 3 is the flow chart of flux monitoring method 300 according to another embodiment of the present invention.
In step 302, AAA selects the user of potential abuse network according to user's ticket in the past.For example, AAA can first select the user of N name before flow in predetermined period, and calculates their telephone expenses and the ratio of flow (i.e. every GB income of this user), then selects certain customers that wherein ratio is low as the user who abuses network.
In step 304, AAA by traffic monitoring service contracting in abuse network user, to realize the follow-up traffic monitoring to this part user.For example, AAA can give by traffic monitoring service contracting the user who picks out automatically.Every GB income that AAA can accept according to user's set meal and operator arranges suitable traffic threshold.
In step 306, AAA receives the charging message that NAS sends.
In step 308, AAA according to charging message predetermined flux cumulating in the cycle flow to user add up.The flux cumulating cycle can according to circumstances be set, such as being set as one month, identical with metering period.AAA can carry out flux cumulating to the user of the traffic monitoring business of having contracted.
In step 310, when flux cumulating reaches thresholding, AAA change user's authorization attribute, and by the new authorization attribute notice NAS after change.In one embodiment, when flow reaches thresholding in user uses the process of business, AAA change user's authorization attribute, and by CoA message by the new authorization attribute notice NAS after change.Such as BE (Best Effort, the business of doing one's best) has two kinds of authorization attributes: user gradation and maximum aggregate bandwidth (being user's maximum bandwidth).AAA can two parameter use all, also can only use one of them.In another embodiment, when flow reaches thresholding during at user offline, AAA change user's authorization attribute.AAA can again reach the standard grade and the new authorization attribute after change is handed down to NAS while carrying out access authentication user.
In step 312, NAS controls user's service traffics according to new authorization attribute.For example, for the user gradation attribute of BE business, NAS can, after CoA message obtains this parameter, send to wireless side by A interface.Maximum aggregate bandwidth can be carried out in wireless side, also can carry out in NAS side.NAS can carry out flow control to user by losing the modes such as table and/or buffer memory.
In step 314, when the next flux cumulating cycle starts, AAA removes user's flux cumulating volume, and new authorization attribute is reverted to the authorization attribute before change.
Fig. 4 is according to the structural representation of the flow-monitoring device 400 of the embodiment of the present invention.Flow-monitoring device 400 comprises receiver module 402, flux cumulating module 404, attribute changes module 406 and sending module 408.
Sending module 408, for notifying NAS by the new authorization attribute after change, NAS controls user's service traffics according to new authorization attribute.
Fig. 5 is the structural representation of flow-monitoring device according to another embodiment of the present invention.Flow-monitoring device 500 comprises that receiver module 502, flux cumulating module 504, attribute changes module 506, sending module 508, recovery module 510, user select module 512 and service contracting module 514.
User selects module 512, for select the user of potential abuse network according to user's ticket in the past.
Sending module 508, for notifying NAS by the new authorization attribute after change, NAS controls user's service traffics according to new authorization attribute.
Wherein, in one embodiment, when flow reaches thresholding in user uses the process of business, attribute changes module 506 change users' authorization attribute, sending module 508 by CoA message by the new authorization attribute notice NAS after change.In another embodiment, when flow reaches thresholding during at user offline, attribute changes module 506 change users' authorization attribute, sending module 508 is handed down to NAS by the new authorization attribute after change when user reaches the standard grade again.
The present invention is by the upgrading to AAA, the charging message that increase sends according to NAS equipment carries out the flux cumulating of the some cycles based on user, when user's flux cumulating reaches predetermined thresholding, user is issued to certain Service control strategy, thereby realize Fair Use Policy.The present invention only need upgrade to AAA, has advantages of that enforcement is fast, cost is little and influence surface is little, and can meet the requirement of in current existing network, user being carried out FUP policy control.
Description of the invention provides for example with for the purpose of describing, and is not exhaustively or limit the invention to disclosed form.Many modifications and variations are obvious for the ordinary skill in the art.Selecting and describing embodiment is for better explanation principle of the present invention and practical application, thereby and makes those of ordinary skill in the art can understand the various embodiment with various modifications that the present invention's design is suitable for special-purpose.
