Generally, embodiment of the invention method may further comprise the steps:
1, distributes at least two parts of different Tunnel Identifiers for the packet data protocol PDP Context;
2, utilize described Tunnel Identifier, between source GTP network element and purpose GTP network element, set up main with GTP tunnel and at least one standby GTP tunnel;
3, when described master uses the GTP tunnel fault, the GTP business is switched on the standby GTP tunnel with GTP tunnel from main.
Wherein, source GTP network element can be set up at least two GTP tunnels by same purpose GTP network element, also can set up at least two GTP tunnels with a plurality of purpose GTP network elements, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the embodiment of the invention is described in detail.
At first introduce the embodiment of the invention one.
Referring to Fig. 3, be that two GTP net element communications illustrate intention, wherein, network element 1 is a source GTP network element, network element 2 is a purpose GTP network element.By between network element 1 and network element 2, setting up continuity and the fail safe that two active and standby each other GTP tunnels improve the GTP business.
Referring to Fig. 4, be active and standby GTP tunnel schematic diagram, wherein, " GTP tunnel " is meant " GTP tunnel end points " and " GTP path " two parts between network element in the network element of both sides, wherein, the GTP tunnel end points is by " GTP tunnel Endpoint ID " (Tunnel Edge ID, TEID) expression, (Path ID PID) represents by " GTP ID of trace route path " in the GTP path.Wherein, network element provides the management function to the primary, spare tunnel of GTP, comprises establishment, modification and the dismounting in tunnel, and quick detection mechanism and professional the switching.
Referring to Fig. 5, be embodiment one flow chart, comprising:
Step 501: be two parts of different Tunnel Identifiers of each PDP Context configuration;
Wherein, these two parts of Tunnel Identifiers are used " master uses PID with TEID+ master " and " the standby PID of standby TEID+ " expression respectively.The primary and backup GTP tunnel end points of same PDP Context must use different TEID, and is mapped to respectively on the different GTP paths; In like manner, the different GTP path should have relatively independent Network Transmission path, when guaranteeing a certain paths fault, is unlikely to influence the business in other path.
It is separate that different PDP Contexts active and standby is identified at the branch timing with GTP tunnel, the master of different PDP Contexts can be used and back up the GTP tunnel end points and be mapped on the identical or different GTP path, referring to Fig. 6, network element should consider to make the GTP path load balancing of trying one's best when distributing the GTP tunnel endpoint resources.
Step 502: create active and standby GTP tunnel;
Referring to Fig. 7, be to be network element shown in Figure 31 and the active and standby GTP tunnel flow chart of network element 2 establishments.Wherein, network element 1 is primary and backup GTP tunnel sign for this side PDP Context distributes, the master of this PDP Context between network element identified with PID with TEID and master corresponding to the main of this PDP Context by both sides with GTP tunnel, and the standby GTP tunnel of this PDP Context between network element identified by the standby TEID and the standby PID of both sides corresponding to this PDP Context.Network element 1 is created message by PDP Context active and standby GTP tunnel sign is sent to network element 2 in step 502-1 then; Network element 2 also distributes primary and backup GTP tunnel sign for this side PDP Context, creates response message at step 502-2 by PDP Context then and sends to network element 1.
Step 503: detect the GTP tunnel connectedness, under the normal condition, execution in step 504, when the master uses the GTP tunnel fault, execution in step 505;
In order to guarantee that path failure is detected rapidly, and avoid influencing business continuance, preferential adopt detection sensitivity at 50ms with interior detection agreement, for example two-way forwarding detects (BFD), BFD is a kind of independent HELLO agreement of high speed, it detects based on the Hello fault-detection data bag of UDP layer by regular transmission and judges transmission tunnel and lower floor's fault, and can also detect and judge transport layer, tunnel layer, the error code that IP layer and application layer exist, soft faults such as packet loss, at present the default assay intervals of BFD is 10ms, detects fault 3 times and just reports tunnel failure continuously.This BFD surveys the more existing Echo of mechanism, and to survey machine-processed response speed fast, and it is long that existing Echo surveys the mechanism cycle, generally needed tens seconds could confirm fault to a few minutes.
Step 504: transmit the GTP business with GTP tunnel by main;
Step 505: the GTP business is switched on the standby GTP tunnel with GTP tunnel from main.
When detecting the GTP path failure, find all PDP Contexts on this GTP path, if this PDP Context will be led with GTP tunnel and be mapped on the failure path, then carry out handoff functionality, these PDP Context business of being about to switch on the standby GTP tunnel to be proceeded.
Referring to Fig. 8, switch schematic diagram with GTP tunnel for active and standby.
Thus, different PDP Contexts are sent to purpose GTP network element by standby GTP tunnel (standby GTP tunnel end points and standby GTP path) separately with business, purpose GTP network element receives data and submits to the GTP Business treatment from standby GTP tunnel, and the operation layer perception is less than the generation of tunnel switching and service disconnection.
In addition, can also carry out dynamic management, that is, GTP tunnel be made amendment or removed active and standby GTP tunnel.
If variation has taken place for TEID or PID, can change by the PDP context modification flow process.Referring to Fig. 9, be the embodiment of the invention one active and standby GTP tunnel modification process figure that uses.Network element 1 sends to network element 2 with the active and standby GTP tunnel sign after the renewal of this side PDP Context by PDP context modification message in step 901, network element 2 also sends to network element 1 with the active and standby GTP tunnel sign of the PDP Context after the renewal of this side by the PDP context modification response message in step 902.
Referring to Figure 10, remove flow chart with GTP tunnel for the embodiment of the invention one is active and standby.Network element 1 passes through network element 2 by PDP Context deletion message in step 1001, network element 2 discharges the active and standby GTP tunnel sign that this side is distributed for this PDP Context, in step 1002, return PDP Context deletion response message then to network element 1, after this, network element 1 discharges the active and standby GTP tunnel sign of PDP Context in this side again.
Introduce the embodiment of the invention two below.
To set up active and standby GTP tunnel different with GTP network element in source among the embodiment one and purpose GTP network element, embodiment two be on different purpose GTP network elements, set up main with GTP tunnel and standby GTP tunnel.
Referring to Figure 11, be embodiment two schematic diagrames, wherein, network element 1 is a source GTP network element, network element 2 and network element 3 are two purpose GTP network elements.When distributing the GTP tunnel sign, for network element 1, need identify and standby GTP tunnel sign with GTP tunnel for the PDP Context distribution is main, for network element 2 and network element 3, then distribute the master to identify respectively with GTP tunnel sign and standby GTP tunnel.Referring to Figure 12, be the active and standby tunnel schematic diagram of using of the embodiment of the invention two GTP.
Similar with embodiment one, it is separate that different PDP Contexts active and standby is identified at the branch timing with GTP tunnel, main the using with backup GTP tunnel end points of different PDP Contexts can be mapped on the different GTP paths, still see also Fig. 6, network element should consider to make the GTP path load balancing of trying one's best when distributing the GTP tunnel endpoint resources.
Referring to Figure 13, be the embodiment of the invention two active and standby GTP tunnel visioning procedure figure that use.Wherein, network element 1 is primary and backup GTP tunnel sign for this side PDP Context distributes, main the use GTP tunnel of this PDP Context between network element identified with PID with main with TEID corresponding to the main of this PDP Context by both sides, and the standby GTP tunnel of this PDP Context between network element is by standby TEID and the standby PID sign of both sides corresponding to this PDP Context.Network element 1 will be led with the GTP tunnel sign by PDP Context establishment message and send to network element 2 in step 1301 then; Network element 2 is that this side PDP Context distributes the main Tunnel Identifier of using, and creates response message in step 1302 by PDP Context then and sends to network element 1; Similarly, network element 1 is created message by PDP Context standby GTP tunnel sign is sent to network element 3 in step 1303; Network element 3 is that this side PDP Context distributes the over run tunnel sign, creates response message in step 1304 by PDP Context then and sends to network element 1.
If network element 2 and network element 3 have all successfully been replied response message to network element 1, then network element 1 has successfully been set up the active and standby GTP tunnel of this PDP Context.If the master sets up successfully with GTP tunnel, and standby GTP tunnel is set up failure, and then network element 1 is selected other network element, and for example network element 4, attempts setting up standby GTP tunnel once more.If main foundation with GTP tunnel failed, and standby GTP tunnel is set up successfully, then network element 1 selects other network elements to set up the main GTP tunnel of using.If there is not other purpose GTP network element to select, then source GTP network element and purpose GTP network element use and to have set up a successful GTP tunnel and transmit as unique GTP tunnel, and described active and standby GTP tunnel method does not re-use.
Referring to Figure 14, for the embodiment of the invention two active and standby GTP tunnels switch schematic diagram.When detecting the GTP path failure, send signalling trouble, find all PDP Contexts on this GTP path, be mapped on the failure path, then these PDP Context business are switched on the standby GTP tunnel and proceed if this PDP Context will be led with GTP tunnel.Need to prove, in embodiment two, only be by the professional handoff functionality of the execution of network element 1.After the switching, network element 2 notice upstream nodes are the new business route more, informs the current disabled status that is, network element 3 notice upstream nodes are the new business route more, informs the current initiate mode that is.
In addition, can also carry out dynamic management, that is, GTP tunnel be made amendment or removed active and standby GTP tunnel.
If variation has taken place for TEID or PID, can change by the PDP context modification flow process.Referring to Figure 15, be the embodiment of the invention two active and standby GTP tunnel modification process figure that use.Network element 1 sends to network element 2 with the GTP tunnel sign by PDP context modification message with the master after the renewal of this side PDP Context in step 1501, network element 2 sends to network element 1 with the GTP tunnel sign by the PDP context modification response message with the PDP Context master after the renewal of this side in step 1502; Similarly, network element 1 sends to network element 3 with the standby GTP tunnel sign after the renewal of this side PDP Context by PDP context modification message in step 1503, network element 3 sends to network element 1 with the standby GTP tunnel sign of the PDP Context after the renewal of this side by the PDP context modification response message in step 1504.
Referring to Figure 16, remove flow chart with GTP tunnel for the embodiment of the invention two is active and standby.Network element 1 passes through network element 2 by PDP Context deletion message in step 1601, network element 2 discharges this side and identifies with GTP tunnel for the master that this PDP Context distributes, in step 1602, return PDP Context deletion response message then to network element 1, after this, network element 1 discharges PDP Context again and identifies with GTP tunnel the master of this side; Similarly, in step 1603, pass through network element 3 if delete standby GTP tunnel network element 1 by PDP Context deletion message, network element 3 discharges the standby GTP tunnel sign that this side is distributed for this PDP Context, in step 1604, return PDP Context deletion response message then to network element 1, after this, network element 1 discharges the standby GTP tunnel sign of PDP Context in this side again.
With respect to embodiment one, the advantage of embodiment two is conspicuous, promptly, not only when the master uses the GTP tunnel fault, can switch to fast on the backup GTP tunnel, and, when purpose GTP network element failure, also can switch to fast on other the purpose GTP network element, thereby further guarantee the continuity and the reliability of GTP business.
Introduce the embodiment of the invention three at last.

Referring to Figure 17, be embodiment three schematic diagrames.Wherein, network element 1 is a source GTP network element, it is main with purpose GTP network element and standby purpose GTP network element that network element 2 and network element 3 are respectively, and sets up main GTP tunnel and the standby GTP tunnel used between network element 1 and network element 2, also sets up main with GTP tunnel and standby GTP tunnel between network element 1 and network element 3.
When distributing the GTP tunnel sign, for network element 1, need be for first master between PDP Context distribution and the network element 2 identify with the GTP tunnel sign and the first standby GTP tunnel, second master between distribution and the network element 3 identifies with GTP tunnel and the second standby GTP tunnel sign simultaneously; For network element 2, then first master between distribution and the network element 1 identifies with the GTP tunnel sign and the first standby GTP tunnel, and in like manner, for network element 3, then second master between distribution and the network element 1 identifies with GTP tunnel and the second standby GTP tunnel sign.
Under the normal condition, source GTP network element by and main with the master between purpose GTP network element with GTP tunnel transmission GTP business, promptly transmit the GTP business with GTP tunnel by first master between network element 1 and the network element 2, when first master uses the GTP tunnel fault, business is switched on the first standby GTP tunnel, when the first main all faults of the GTP tunnel and the first standby GTP tunnel of using, perhaps, when the master uses purpose GTP network element (network element 2) fault, business is switched to second master with on the GTP tunnel, when second leads with GTP tunnel also fault, business is switched on the second standby GTP tunnel.
Thus, the backup of GTP tunnel has further improved the GTP service security between the backup of the GTP network element that the embodiment threeway is looked over so as to check, each purpose GTP network element and the source GTP network element.
