The method comprises the steps that according to the telephone number of a fault user, a media gateway and a terminal node identifier corresponding to the fault user are found out on core network equipment; a command aiming at the terminal node identifier is sent to the media gateway through using a gateway control protocol, so as to request the media gateway to execute the user line test function; and the media gateway executes the related user line test function after receiving the request. By adopting the method and the system provided by the invention, the NGN/IMS (IP (Internet protocol) multimedia subsystem) core network equipment can control the gateway to complete the user line test function through the gateway control protocol, so maintenance personnel of the NGN/IMS core network can position user line faults on the core network equipment, and therefore the maintenance is benefited.

Description

A kind of implementation method and system that in next generation network, supports line testing
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, especially, relate to a kind of method and system that in next generation network (NGN)/IP Multimedia System (IMS), realize user line testing.
Background technology
The subsystem of IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem, IP Multimedia System) the support IP multimedia service that to be 3GPP propose at Release 5 versions, its core characteristics be adopt Session Initiation Protocol and with the independence that inserts.Under the development trend of the network integration, 3GPP, ETSI and ITU-T in the network integration scheme of research based on IMS, realize the fusion of fixed network and mobile network.Therefore IMS is considered to the dreamboat framework that is next generation network.
Soft switch (SS) notion is on the basis of IP phone, progressively to grow up in the later stage nineties 20th century, be in communication network by the arrowband to the broadband transition, progressively perfect in the process of packet switching evolution by circuit switching.
Among NGN and the IMS; Through traditional switch being separated into MGC (Media Gateway Controller) and MG (WMG); Utilize the characteristics of IP/ATM transmission network, can realize on the one hand the mutual of voice, image, data, MGC can manyly more easily introduce professional on the other hand.MGC also can pass through MG and traditional P STN, PLMN network interworking.In next generation network; H.248 or MGCP (two protocol application scenes with the effect similar; Back literary composition is convenient for describing, as with concrete protocol-independent, only with H.248 explanation separately) as the main media gateway protocols between MGC and the MG; The main completion: 1) under MGC control, accomplish the foundation and the release of the media channel among the MG; 2) under MGC control, the media channel and being connected with removing of bearer path of accomplishing among the MG are connected; 3) the configuration among the completion MG in MGC control down, to the attribute of media channel and bearer path; 4) in MG, accomplish the operation of MGC, comprise playback, audit etc. media channel and bearer path; 5) event among the MG is sent to MGC; 6) realize some simple call signalings, like analog line signaling, channel associated signalling etc.H.248/MGCP be a kind of control protocol up and down, MGC controls the behavior of MG fully.
Along with the development of soft switch and IMS, a large amount of subscriber terminal equipment IAD controllers causes the IP address in short supply, and terminal user management is complicated, problems such as the fail safe of system.Edge access control equipment BAC (Border Access Control; Also has multiple different expression; As: broad access network gate BGW-Broad GateWay; Session border control appliance SBC-Session Border Control) can satisfy dissimilar user (comprising enterprise, individual, mobile subscriber) simultaneously, the access demand of multiple capacity, and support various protocols MGCP, agent functionality H.248 simultaneously.Realize the control and management of signaling, Media Stream address transition, the authentication that inserts the user, management, Business Stream, functions such as resource management.
In actual telecommunications Operation Network, MG can insert a large amount of analog lines as a kind of controlled entity of Access Layer.The user plate of these analog lines from the phone to MG; Middle can be through very long connection distance, if when the user finds to influence the fault of conversation, be that the fault of which part of subscribers feeder or phone causes in order to locate; MG is last can to provide one group of test function; Fault location origination point, these test functions mainly are that the multiple parameters of user's internal and external line is tested, like loop current test, the Feed Voltage Test of interior lines; The voltage of outside line, resistance, capacity measurement.Through analyzing the test result of these parameters, just can locate is where partly breaking down of circuit or phone.
From the angle of telecom operation, equipment of the core network can insert a lot of MG equipment as the controlled entity of MGC; Like home gateway, IAD (Integrated Access Device; Integrated access equipment), be placed on the telecommunications room diverse location with equipment of the core network is concentrated, these terminal equipment quantity are many; It is wide to distribute, and this makes core net attendant inconvenience manage.If the subscriber's line fault takes place, the attendant needs the user line testing of remote control terminal equipment, and this makes troubles to maintenance work.More serious is, if these terminal equipments are linked into core net through BAC, because BAC shielded terminal network, make can not long-rangely be connected to terminal equipment on the core net, thereby can't carry out user line testing.
