Abstract

This invention discloses a method for describing data function entities in NASS including: UAAF of a domain ownership is connected with at least one new added UPLF via an interface and said UPLF stores the ID information of the PDBF and the information describing the corresponding relation of the user descriptor and PDBF ID information, after the UAAF of the domain ownership receives the request for inquiring network configuration authentication of a user and authority authentication request sent by a request party, it sends the request for obtaining corresponding PDBF ID information to said UPLF via an interface, which looks up the corresponding PDBF ID information and responds said information to the UAAF to realize location to PDBF.

Description

The method of positioning describing data function entity among the NASS
Technical field
The present invention relates to next generation network (NGN, Next Generation Network) mobile communication technology field, relate in particular in the NGN architectural framework, user access authorization function entity (UAAF, User AccessAuthorization Function) method of identification data of description functional entity (PDBF, Profile Data Base Function).
Background technology
At present, with the Internet new technology of representative just conventional telecommunication network in profound influence notion and system, next generation network is one of wherein the most noticeable bright spot.In current a kind of NGN architectural framework, the major function of Network Attachment Subsystem as shown in Figure 1 (NASS, Network Attachment Subsystem) be dynamic assignment Internet protocol (IP) address and other-end configuration parameter, during the IP address assignment program or before occur in IP layer user's authentication and authentication, according to the network insertion mandate of customer service inventory (Profile), according to the Access Network configuration of customer service inventory (Profile), occur in the location management of IP layer etc.
In numerous functional entitys that NASS comprises, comprising network access configuration function entity (NACF, Network Access Configuration Function), access management function entity (AMF, AccessManagement Function), connection session location and memory function entity (CLF, Connectivity SessionLocation and Repository Function), UAAF, PDBF, user's configuration feature entity (CPECF, CPE Configuration Function).Described PDBF is used for storing with user network and inserts configuration relevant authentication and authentication information, comprise user identifier (User Identity), support mandate approach inventory (List of SupportedAuthentication Methods), key material authorization data information such as (Key Material).
UAAF obtains from PDBF with interface between the PDBF by UAAF and user network inserts configuration relevant authentication and authentication information.PDBF can be positioned in user's service describing functional entity (UPSF, User ProfileServer Function), also can occur as a functional entity separately.Usually UPSF has a plurality ofly in an area, so UAAF is difficult for knowing which PDBF from which UPSF be, obtains and user network inserts configuration relevant authentication and authentication information.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to solve UAAF and be difficult for the data of description functional entity of user's correspondence is positioned existing problem and shortage, a kind of convenience, the method for positioning describing data function entity among the NASS efficiently are provided.
For addressing the above problem, the present invention adopts following technical scheme: the method for positioning describing data function entity among this NASS, be specially, in Network Attachment Subsystem, the user access authorization function entity of home domain is described the positioning function entity by interface with one or more users that newly establish and is linked to each other, and described user describe the positioning function physical memory contain the identifier information of data of description functional entity and user descriptors is described and data of description functional entity identifier information between the information of corresponding relation; The user access authorization function entity of described home domain is after the network configuration authentication and authentication information request of the inquiring user that receives requesting party's transmission, to described user the request that the positioning function entity sends the identifier information of the data of description functional entity that obtains user's correspondence is described by described interface, described user describes the identifier information that the positioning function entity is searched the corresponding data of description functional entity of this user according to corresponding relation between the user descriptors in this request and data of description functional entity identifier information, and with the user access authorization function entity of this identifier information response to described home domain, thereby realization is to the location of data of description functional entity.
According to the invention described above technical scheme, by user access authorization function entity and user the interface that the positioning function inter-entity is set up is described at home domain, and the identifier information of describing the data of description functional entity that to be visited and to obtain by the user access authorization function entity of home domain of positioning function physical memory storage described user, can make the user access authorization function entity of home domain convenient by the identifier information of this data of description functional entity, identify the data of description functional entity of user's correspondence efficiently, thereby obtain to insert configuration relevant authentication and authentication information with user network, as User Identity, List of Supported Authentication Methods, authorization data information such as Key Material.
