the system comprises an address information insertion module, a domain name system module and a domain name system module, wherein the address information insertion module is used for replacing an IP packet source address or inserting the position domain information of an edge user plane functional entity in a hypertext transfer protocol request under the condition of inserting address information in the hypertext transfer protocol request, and the hypertext transfer protocol request is a hypertext transfer protocol domain name system request;
the device comprises an address information insertion module, a multi-access edge calculation public network address calculation module and a network address generation module, wherein the address information insertion module is used for replacing a hypertext transfer protocol domain name system request source address with a multi-access edge calculation public network address under the condition of performing IP packet source address replacement or edge user plane functional entity position domain information insertion in a hypertext transfer protocol request; or, inserting the position domain information of the edge user plane functional entity into the message header requested by the domain name system of the hypertext transfer protocol.
6. The edge user plane functional entity of claim 5, wherein the edge user plane functional entity is configured to perform operations for implementing the content distribution network implementation method according to claim 2.
7. An edge user plane functional entity, comprising:
a memory to store instructions;
a processor configured to execute the instructions to cause the edge user plane functional entity to perform operations to implement the content distribution network implementing method of any one of claims 1-2.
8. A content distribution network implementation system, characterized in that it comprises an edge user plane functionality according to any of claims 5-7.
9. The content distribution network implementing system according to claim 8, further comprising:
a content distribution network center dispatching system used for identifying a multi-access edge computing service area where a user terminal is located by multi-access edge computing public network address or/user plane function entity position domain information under the condition of receiving a hypertext transmission protocol request processed by a position information inserting strategy; replying a content distribution network edge node server address of a multi-access edge computing node of a user terminal;
and the user terminal is used for requesting the content service to the edge node of the content distribution network.
10. A computer-readable storage medium, wherein the computer-readable storage medium stores computer instructions that, when executed by a processor, implement the content distribution network-implemented method of any one of claims 1-4.
