As shown in Figure 1, the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of control method of direct tunnel, comprising:
101, obtain network topological information; This network topological information can react composition situation and the connection status of whole network;
Wherein, obtain network topological information and can adopt following any one mode:
(1) receives the RNC of operations support systems (OSS, Operations Support System) transmission and the connection state information between the GGSN;
Certainly, Internet protocol (the IP of the GGSN that surveys about need that can also receive before this that the OSS system sends, Internet Protocol) request of address, returning according to the request that receives then needs the IP address list of the GGSN that surveys to give the OSS system, so that connection state information between RNC and the GGSN is collected according to this tabulation by the OSS system.
(2) send the domain name mapping request that has direct Tunnel Identifier to domain name system (DNS, Domain Name System) system, receive the IP address result of the GGSN of the domain name correspondence of returning after the DNS system records by nslookup; It should be noted that wherein, this direct Tunnel Identifier refers to the sign that expression need be set up direct tunnel, and is not to identify the direct tunnel of setting up;
Certainly, before sending the domain name mapping request that has direct Tunnel Identifier to the DNS system, can also comprise:
The request of the IP address of the RNC that surveys about need that receives that the OSS system sends, return the IP address list of the RNC that needs detection to the OSS system according to the request that receives then, so that the OSS system upgrades the domain name record in the DNS system after collecting connection state information between RNC and the GGSN according to this tabulation.
(3) send wireless network resource to RNC and distribute request, wherein, this wireless network resource is distributed the IP address of carrying GGSN in the request, after this, receives RNC and carries out the wireless network resource assignment response that connection status judges that the back is returned according to the IP address of GGSN;

203, after the OSS system received the IP address list of the GGSN that needs that SGSN sends survey, the IP address list of the GGSN of Tan Ceing was to the IP address of RNC request detection GGSN as required.
Certainly, RNC also can adopt the mode that regularly reports, and report once the result of detection that is connected with the IP address of the GGSN that oneself set up the tunnel to the OSS system, so step 203 is optional step.
204, RNC sends GTPv1 message to the IP address of each GGSN, such as acknowledges requests (EchoRequest).
205, if being connected between GGSN and the RNC is normal, then GGSN can echo reply response (EchoResponse) give RNC, otherwise, if RNC do not receive the Echo Response message that GGSN returns, then RNC determine between this self (being RNC) and the GGSN be connected unusual.
206, RNC gathers the situation that is connected between the IP address of self (being RNC) and each GGSN, obtains the result of detection of the IP address of GGSN, and the result of detection of the IP address of this GGSN is reported the OSS system.
207, the OSS system upgrades the RNC that self preserves and the connection state information between the GGSN according to the result of detection of the IP address of the GGSN that receives, and the GGSN after will upgrading then and the connection state information between the RNC send to SGSN.
After SGSN receives connection state information between these GGSN and the RNC, when needs judge whether to enable direct tunnel for the user, then can judge according to these connection state informations, as follows:
If the connection state information that receives represents that the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is normal, then can enable direct tunnel for the user.
If the connection state information that receives represents that the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is unusual, then not for the user enables direct tunnel, but set up two sections common tunnels, namely set up the tunnel that arrives RNC and set up the tunnel that arrives GGSN.
As from the foregoing, the SGSN of present embodiment adopts the RNC of reception OSS system transmission and the connection state information between the GGSN, determine whether enabling direct tunnel according to this connection state information then, namely, if this connection state information represent between RNC and the GGSN connection status just often, then enable direct tunnel, otherwise, if this connection state information represents that the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is unusual, then set up two sections common tunnels, because this scheme will the factor relevant with setting up direct tunnel, be that connection status between RNC and the GGSN is as enabling the condition in direct tunnel, therefore in terms of existing technologies, can be more flexible control whether enabling direct tunnel effectively.
Embodiment three,
With implement two and identical be, in the present embodiment, also with the collecting network topology information unit of OSS system as the network topological information treatment facility, SGSN is used equipment as network topological information, with implement two and different be, in the present embodiment, with the network topological information performance element of GGSN as the network topological information treatment facility, with the network topological information Dispatching Unit of DNS system as the network topological information treatment facility.
Prerequisite is that configuration has the domain name record of direct Tunnel Identifier in the DNS system, except comprising direct Tunnel Identifier, also comprises in this domain name:
(1) APN (APN, Access Point Name) is used for sign GGSN
(2) (ID Identity) or route district sign indicating number (Routing Area Code), is used for sign RNC for RNC sign
The IP address of having recorded the GGSN of this domain name correspondence in the domain name record, SGSN can select GGSN for the user by sending the domain name mapping request message to DNS.
Referring to Fig. 3, idiographic flow can be as follows:
301, the OSS system sends the request of the IP address of the RNC that surveys about need to SGSN.
It should be noted that, because the OSS system has preserved RNC under some scenes IP address, so this step, namely step 301 is optional step.
302, after the request of the IP address of the SGSN RNC that surveys about need that receives that the OSS system sends, report the IP address list of the RNC that needs survey to the OSS system according to the request that receives.
Certainly, SGSN also can adopt the mode that regularly reports the IP address list of RNC, so step 302 is optional step.
303, after the OSS system received the IP address list of the RNC that needs that SGSN sends survey, the IP address list of the RNC of Tan Ceing was to the IP address of GGSN request detection RNC as required.
Certainly, GGSN can adopt the mode that regularly reports, and report once the result of detection that is connected with the IP address of the RNC that oneself set up the tunnel to the OSS system, so step 303 is optional step.
304, GGSN sends GTPv1 message to the IP address of each RNC, such as Echo Request message.
305, if being connected between GGSN and the RNC is normal, then RNC can return Echo Response message.Otherwise, if GGSN do not receive the Echo Response message that RNC returns, then GGSN determine between self (being GGSN) and this RNC be connected unusual.
306, GGSN gathers the situation that is connected between the IP address of self (being GGSN) and each RNC, obtain the connection state information between GGSN and each RNC, the connection state information between GGSN and each RNC is reported the OSS system as result of detection.
307, the OSS system receives the GGSN and the connection state information between each RNC that GGSN reports, according to the domain name record in the renewal of the connection state information between the GGSN that receives and the RNC DNS system:
(1) if the connection state information that receives represents that the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is normal, then keep the domain name record constant.
(2) if the connection state information that receives represents that the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is unusual, then remove the IP address of the GGSN in the corresponding domain name record.
308, set up in the process at user conversation, when SGSN selects GGSN for the user, send the domain name mapping request that has direct Tunnel Identifier to the DNS system, except comprising direct Tunnel Identifier, also comprise in this domain name:
(1) APN is used for sign GGSN
(2) RNC ID or Routing Area Code are used for sign RNC
309, the DNS system is according to the domain name mapping request nslookup record that has direct Tunnel Identifier that receives, and the IP address result who returns the GGSN corresponding with domain name then gives SGSN, and is as follows:
(1) if the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is unusual, then the IP address result that returns of DNS system is for empty, and then this moment can execution in step 310;
(2) if the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is normal, then the IP address result that returns of DNS system is for empty, namely return the IP address result of the GGSN corresponding with domain name, SGSN receive this for empty IP address result after, set up direct tunnel according to this IP address result;
310, SGSN sends not domain name mapping request with direct Tunnel Identifier to the DNS system.
311, the DNS system receives this not after the domain name mapping request with direct Tunnel Identifier, and not with the domain name mapping request nslookup record of direct Tunnel Identifier, the IP address result who returns the GGSN of domain name correspondence gives SGSN according to this;
SGSN does not enable direct tunnel after receiving IP address result, but for the user sets up two sections common tunnels, namely sets up the tunnel that arrives RNC and set up the tunnel that arrives GGSN according to this IP address result.
As from the foregoing, the SGSN of present embodiment adopts to the DNS system and sends the domain name mapping request that has direct Tunnel Identifier, behind the IP address result of the GGSN that receives the domain name correspondence that the DNS system returns, determine whether enabling direct tunnel according to this IP address result then, namely, if this IP address result is not empty, then represent between RNC and the GGSN connection status just often, can enable direct tunnel, otherwise, if this IP address result is empty, represent that then the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is unusual, so determine to set up two sections common tunnels, because this scheme will the factor relevant with setting up direct tunnel, be connection status between RNC and the GGSN as enabling the condition in direct tunnel, therefore in terms of existing technologies, can be more flexible control whether enabling direct tunnel effectively.
Embodiment four,
With implement two and identical be, in the present embodiment, also with the network topological information performance element of RNC as the network topological information treatment facility, with implement two and three and different be, in the present embodiment, SGSN is integrated network topological information use equipment, the collecting network topology information unit of network topological information treatment facility and the function of network topological information Dispatching Unit.
As shown in Figure 4, idiographic flow can be as follows:
401, SGSN sends wireless network resource distribution request to RNC, and wherein, this wireless network resource is distributed the IP address of carrying GGSN in the request.
It should be noted that, sending to RNC before wireless network resource distributes request that communicate by letter between SGSN and the GGSN, just this moment, SGSN did not determine whether to set up direct tunnel as yet, therefore, SGSN can be known the IP address of GGSN.
402, after RNC receives this wireless network resource distribution request, carry out connection status according to the IP address of GGSN and judge, namely carry out the GTP path and survey, for example, corresponding GGSN sends GTPv1 message to RNC to the IP address of GGSN, such as Echo Request message.
If the connection status between 403 RNC and the GGSN IP address is normal, after then GGSN receives the Echo Request message of RNC transmission, will return Echo Response message; Otherwise, if the connection status between RNC and the GGSN IP address is unusual, then GGSN can't receive the EchoRequest message that RNC sends, thereby GGSN can not return Echo Response message yet and give RNC, so, if RNC does not receive GGSN and returns Echo Response message, then RNC can determine the interruption that is connected between self (being RNC) and this GGSN IP address.
Certainly, also can carry out the path to each GGSN that is connected with oneself in advance on the RNC surveys, and connection status preserved as result of detection, after receiving this wireless network resource distribution request, directly distribute the corresponding result of detection record of request inquiry according to this wireless network resource, survey and need not to distribute request to carry out the path according to this wireless network resource, therefore, step 402 and 403 is optional step.
If 404 RNC determine that the connection status between the IP address of self (being RNC) and GGSN is normal, then RNC returns the successful wireless network resource assignment response of expression to SGSN, after SGSN receives this wireless network resource assignment response, direct tunnel between RNC and the GGSN is set up successfully, and flow process finishes.
Otherwise, if RNC determines that the connection status between the IP address of self (being RNC) and GGSN is unusual, then RNC returns the wireless network resource assignment response message that expression is failed to SGSN, and the path between the IP address of indication SGSNRNC and this GGSN is obstructed, can execution in step 405.
405, SGSN can send wireless network resource distribution request to RNC again, and wherein, this wireless network resource is distributed the IP address of carrying SGSN in the request.
406, after RNC receives the wireless network resource distribution request of the IP address of carrying SGSN, return the wireless network resource assignment response according to the IP address of SGSN to SGSN; SGSN sets up between RNC and the SGSN after receiving this wireless network resource assignment response, and common two sections tunnels between SGSN and the GGSN.
At this moment, SGSN can also record the unusual information of connection status between the IP address of representing this RNC and GGSN, and starts timer, in the time that timer presets, does not start direct tunnel between this RNC and GGSN.Certainly, prerequisite is that SGSN inside need arrange a timer.
Certainly, in order to discharge memory space, overtime in the time that timer presets after, SGSN can also directly remove the unusual information of the expression RNC that records and the connection status between the GGSN.
407, optional, overtime in the time that timer presets after, SGSN also can continue to ask RNC to survey the IP address of GGSN, namely SGSN also can send request about the IP address of surveying GGSN to RNC.
408, after RNC receives this request about the IP address of detection GGSN, carry out the GTP path according to the IP address of GGSN and survey, for example, RNC sends GTPv1 message to the GGSN of the IP address correspondence of GGSN, such as Echo Request message.
If the connection status between 409 RNC and the GGSN IP address is normal, then GGSN can return Echo Response and give RNC; Otherwise the non-return Echo Response of GGSN gives RNC;
So if RNC receives the Echo Response that GGSN returns, then RNC determines that the connection status between self (being RNC) and GGSN IP address is normal; If RNC do not receive the EchoResponse that GGSN returns, then RNC determines to take place unusually being connected between the IP address of self (being RNC) and this GGSN.
410, RNC is with result of detection, and namely the connection state information between RNC and the GGSN reports SGSN;
After SGSN receives connection state information between these GGSN and the RNC, when needs judge whether to enable direct tunnel for the user, then can judge according to these connection state informations, as follows:
The connection state information that receives represents that the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is normal, then allows the follow-up direct tunnel of enabling, and namely in follow-up flow process, if desired for the user enables direct tunnel, then SGSN can enable direct tunnel for the user.
The connection state information that receives represents that the connection status between RNC and the GGSN is unusual, then continue to start this timer, namely in follow-up flow process, when determining whether to enable direct tunnel for the user if desired, SGSN does not enable direct tunnel for the user, but set up two sections common tunnels, namely then set up two sections tunnels that arrive RNC and GGSN respectively.
As from the foregoing, the SGSN of present embodiment adopts the wireless network resource distribution request that sends the IP address of carrying GGSN to RNC, receive RNC then and carry out the wireless network resource assignment response that connection status judges that the back is returned according to the IP address of GGSN, determine whether enabling direct tunnel according to this wireless network resource assignment response, namely, receive the successful wireless network resource assignment response of expression, then enable direct tunnel, otherwise, if receive the wireless network resource assignment response of expression failure, then set up two sections common tunnels, because this scheme will the factor relevant with setting up direct tunnel, be connection status between RNC and the GGSN as enabling the condition in direct tunnel, therefore in terms of existing technologies, can be more flexible control whether enabling direct tunnel effectively.
