Specific embodiment
In order to solve the problems, such as terminal how access network when ANDSF strategies are with HS policy conflicts, the embodiment of the present invention
A kind of method for network access is provided.
Referring to Fig. 2, method for network access provided in an embodiment of the present invention is comprised the following steps:
Step 20:Terminal determines optional WLAN access networks according to the ANDSF strategies for obtaining, and accesses from optional WLAN
Available WLAN access networks are chosen in network;Here, available WLAN access networks for terminal can search its signal and
The WLAN access networks that terminal can access;
Step 21:The HS that terminal obtains each available WLAN access network is tactful, and determines that each available WLAN connects
Enter the HS strategies of network whether with the ANDSF policy conflicts;Here, the WLAN access networks for Hotspot2.0 specifications being defined
It is tactful that information is referred to as HS;
Step 22:When the HS not existed with the ANDSF strategies do not conflict is tactful, terminal obtains new from ANDSF servers
It is tactful with the HS ANDSF that do not conflict of strategy;
Step 23:Terminal is according to new ANDSF policy selection access networks, and accesses the access network of selection.
In step 20, terminal determines optional WLAN access networks according to the ANDSF strategies for obtaining, and implementing can be as
Under:
When ANDSF strategies do not provide the identification information of WLAN access networks, terminal determines optional WLAN access networks
For any one WLAN access network;
When ANDSF strategies provide the identification information of WLAN access networks, terminal determines optional WLAN access networks
For WLAN access networks corresponding to the identification information.
In step 21, determine the HS strategies of each available WLAN access network whether with ANDSF policy conflicts, it is concrete real
Now can be as follows:
For each available WLAN access network, terminal is tactful according to the HS of the available WLAN access networks, judges
The available WLAN access networks whether limit transmit the ANDSF it is tactful described in need be switched to WLAN access networks
IP flows, if, it is determined that HS strategies and ANDSF policy conflicts of the available WLAN access networks, otherwise, it determines this is available
WLAN access networks HS strategy not with the ANDSF policy conflicts.
Concatenation ability is an information of HS strategies, and it indicates the transmission which IP stream wlan network can prevent, for example
WLAN-1 prevents the transmission of IP flow1 and IP flow2, and ANDSF strategies may indicate that UE by IP flow1 and IP flow3
It is transferred to WLAN-1, therefore occurs in that the situation of policy conflict, concatenation ability and ANDSF plan of the policy conflict for wlan network
Slightly conflict, this is only possible to a kind of form of the policy conflict for occurring, other WLAN access networks of 2.0 specifications of Hotspot definition
The information of network is likely to and ANDSF policy conflicts, and the form of other policy conflicts is also within the scope of the present invention.
In step 22, it is determined whether the method that there is the HS strategies not conflicted with ANDSF strategies specifically can be as follows:
For each available WLAN access network, terminal if it is determined that the available WLAN access networks HS strategy with should
ANDSF policy conflicts, then by the identification information storage of the available WLAN access networks in first list, otherwise, can by this
The identification information storage of WLAN access networks is in second list;
If second list is sky, it is determined that it is tactful to there is no the HS not conflicted with ANDSF strategy, otherwise, it determines presence
It is tactful with the ANDSF HS that do not conflict of strategy, and WLAN access networks corresponding to the identification information that stores in second list
It is WLAN access networks corresponding with the HS strategies that the ANDSF strategies do not conflict.
Further, if existing, the HS not conflicted with ANDSF strategies is tactful, and terminal is tactful with the ANDSF not from each
A WLAN access network is selected in the corresponding WLAN access networks of HS strategies of conflict, and accesses the WLAN access networks of selection
Network.
Here, a WLAN is selected from each WLAN access network corresponding with the HS strategies that ANDSF strategies do not conflict
Access network, implementing can be as follows:Terminal is accessed according to each WLAN corresponding with the HS strategies that ANDSF strategies do not conflict
At least one of the precedence information of network, signal intensity, load state information, chooses according to access network set in advance
Rule, selects a WLAN access network from each WLAN access network corresponding with the HS strategies that ANDSF strategies do not conflict,
Most strong WLAN access networks of signal intensity etc. are chosen such as.
In step 22, terminal is tactful from the new ANDSF of ANDSF servers acquisition, and implementing can be as follows:
Terminal updates request message to ANDSF servers sending strategy, carries the terminal in the policy update request message
Identification information, the positional information of the terminal, the identification information of available WLAN access networks and corresponding HS strategies, and HS
Policy conflict information;
Terminal receives the policy update request of ANDSF server feedbacks and replies message, and the policy update request is replied message
It is middle to carry tactful according to the new ANDSF of the parameter information formulation in the policy update request message.
In order that ANDSF servers can to provide the terminal with the new ANDSF not conflicted with HS strategies tactful, so as to solve
Certainly terminal how problem of access network when ANDSF strategies are with HS policy conflicts, the embodiment of the present invention provide a kind of ANDSF plans
Omit sending method.
Referring to Fig. 3, ANDSF strategies sending method provided in an embodiment of the present invention is comprised the following steps:
Step 30:The policy update request message that ANDSF servers receiving terminal sends;
Step 31:It is tactful that ANDSF servers make new ANDSF according to policy update request message;
Step 32:ANDSF servers return policy update request to terminal and reply message, and the policy update request reply disappears
The new ANDSF is carried in breath tactful.
Specifically, following information is carried in policy update request message:The identification information of the terminal, the position letter of the terminal
Breath, the identification information of available WLAN access networks and corresponding HS strategy, and HS policy conflict informations;
Now, in step 31 ANDSF servers to make new ANDSF according to policy update request message tactful, specifically
Implementation method can be as follows:
ANDSF servers are other access networks that terminal selects access technology not to be WLAN, formulate new ANDSF plans
Slightly, it is used to route the stream description letter of the ANDSF strategies for conflicting comprising selected other access networks during the new ANDSF is tactful
The limited IP streams of breath;Or,
ANDSF servers are that to select access technology be WLAN to terminal, and formulate that new ANDSF is tactful, the new ANDSF plans
Do not include in the slightly IP streams limited by the stream description information of the mark comprising WLAN access networks and the new ANDSF strategies
The IP streams of the WLAN access networks route that the new ANDSF strategies are provided can not be passed through, i.e., all IP streams in stream description information
The WLAN access networks route that the new ANDSF strategies are provided can be passed through;Or, do not include during the new ANDSF is tactful
The mark of WLAN access networks only shows the stream description that the access technology for routeing IP streams is WLAN and the new ANDSF strategies
The IP streams limited by information can pass through any one optional WLAN access networks transmission of terminal surrounding.
Here, ANDSF servers determine the available access network of terminal surrounding according to the positional information of terminal, then true again
Determine other access networks whether terminal surrounding has access technology not to be WLAN.
With reference to specific embodiment, the present invention will be described:
Embodiment one:
When UE is according to ANDSF strategies and local policy(Such as user preferences, access history etc.)Determine some are specific
When IP streams are switched to WLAN access networks, UE draws the information of optional WLAN access networks according to ANDSF strategies.Due to
The granularity of ANDSF strategies is different, so UE is different according to the information that ANDSF strategies are obtained:
ANDSF strategies only limit destination access technologies and access for WLAN, then UE understands that optional WLAN access networks are
Any one WLAN access network;
ANDSF strategies not only limit destination access technologies and access for WLAN, and provide one or more to UE
The precedence information of the mark of WLAN access networks and these WLAN access networks, then UE can obtain a WLAN access network
Priority list, the list include the identification information and precedence information of the WLAN access networks that ANDSF strategies are provided, these marks
WLAN access networks representated by knowledge information are optional WLAN access networks.
Will be in optional WLAN access networks around the UE and the WLAN access networks that can access of UE are used as available
WLAN access networks, UE can determine available WLAN access networks using existing method.If do not existed around UE available
WLAN access networks, then the processing method of UE compared with processing method.
After UE obtains the information of available WLAN access networks, the processing procedure of UE is as shown in fig. 4 a:
Step 1:The HS that UE obtains each available WLAN access network is tactful;
Step 2:The HS strategies and ANDSF for contrasting each available WLAN access network is tactful, according to HS strategies and ANDSF
The content of strategy judges whether conflict therebetween;
Step 3:According to comparing result, the WLAN access networks that HS strategies and ANDSF strategies do not conflict are judged whether,
If so, step 6 is then arrived, otherwise, to step 4;
Step 4:UE is tactful to obtain new ANDSF with ANDSF server interactions;
Step 5:According to new ANDSF policy selection access networks, and the access network of selection is accessed, this flow process terminates;
Step 6:The access network of optimum is selected in the WLAN access networks that UE does not conflict from HS strategies and ANDSF strategies,
Specific selection mechanism is depending on the algorithm realization inside UE, such as signal intensity, load shape of the UE according to WLAN access networks
