Description

RCS protocol testing method, testing platform and computer readable storage medium

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of data service technologies, and in particular, to a RCS protocol testing method, a testing platform, and a computer-readable storage medium.

Background

The RCS (Rich Communication Suite, converged Communication) is a basic Communication service provided for the chinese mobile phone user based on the 4G network and the four-network collaborative environment, and is an upgrade of basic Communication services such as voice, message, and address book under 4G. The converged communication comprises three functions of new conversation, new message and new contact. The new call takes the Voice over Long Term Evolution (Voice over Long Term Evolution) as the core and the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) as the supplement, so as to enhance the call quality and experience of the user; the new message is based on RCS, seamlessly integrates various media and message formats, and seamlessly communicates with the traditional short/multimedia message; the 'new contact' is based on the real mobile phone number, and a brand-new social and public information service entrance is constructed.

At present, when the convergence communication industry and related international standards are not completely mature, the technical details are frequently optimized and updated, testing is an important means for assisting manufacturers to research and develop and improve the quality of client products, traditional test instrument manufacturers cannot timely update corresponding test instruments for updating the convergence communication system, and a cloud-based RCS protocol test platform capable of simulating an RCS service server is required to be provided for promoting the maturation of an industrial chain. Compared with an instrument, the cloud-side RCS protocol test platform can better provide test service for integrating the consistency of the communication protocols for terminal manufacturers, can quickly support the latest standard of the RCS, and is low in cost.

In the technical principle, the cloud-based RCS protocol test platform can directly construct a request or response message by simulating the signaling flow and message format of a UNI (User network interface) of the RCS service server, but the platform does not need to have complete RCS service logic and functions and does not need to perform real RCS service processing.

During testing, the terminal to be tested and an RCS protocol testing platform simulated as an RCS service server perform RCS service registration and service interaction, and the RCS protocol testing platform analyzes and checks the captured message to judge whether the terminal to be tested meets the RCS protocol standard.

However, in the RCS service registration process, in which an AKA (Authentication and Key Agreement) Authentication link between a local terminal and a Home Subscriber Server (Home Subscriber Server) is very critical, since real SIM (Subscriber identity Module) card data stored in the HSS and functions such as an Authentication algorithm depending on the HSS need to be used, a cloud-based RCS protocol test platform does not have real SIM card data, and thus, at present, the RCS protocol test platform can only be implemented in the following manner:

the RCS protocol test platform simulates and realizes the AKA authentication algorithm of the HSS and other functions related to the authentication of the HSS and the card;

2. before testing, coordinating a network department of a provincial company to apply for a batch of existing network test cards, uniformly acquiring SIM card information and storing the SIM card information in an RCS protocol test platform in advance;

3. and when the terminal to be tested registers the RCS service, the RCS protocol test platform performs AKA authentication check according to the pre-acquired SIM card information.

The above solution mainly has the following disadvantages:

the RCS protocol testing platform needs to develop RCS related protocols, and also needs to realize related functions (including AKA authentication and related functions) of HSS which are not directly related to the RCS protocols, and the functions are tightly coupled and do not accord with the basic principle that modules of software design are independent and mutually decoupled.

The HSS is used as core capability equipment of the telecommunication network, service logic is complex, development technology threshold is high, and follow-up operation and maintenance difficulty is high.

3. Before testing, a provincial company network department needs to be coordinated to obtain the SIM card and card information for testing, communication with a provincial company is also needed in the using process, the coordination difficulty of cross-department is large, the application and approval process is complex and long, and the testing progress is possibly influenced;

the SIM card is actually used by each tester, and relates to the work of card demand statistics, card issuing, invalidation and reissue after card damage or loss, card recovery and the like, and the management difficulty is high.

The RCS protocol testing method according to the embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to an interaction flow among the terminal to be tested, the RCS protocol testing platform, and the RCS service server.

In the embodiment of the invention, the method is an application scene that a Native terminal authenticates SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) services.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart of a fifth RCS protocol testing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the RCS protocol testing method includes the following steps:

step 501: the terminal to be tested configures the address of the RCS service platform into the address of the RCS protocol test platform simulated as the RCS service server, and initiates an RCS service registration request message (SIP REGISTER) to the RCS protocol test platform by using a common existing network SIM card, wherein the RCS service registration request message carries the IMPI of the terminal to be tested;

the terminal to be tested is a Native terminal.

Step 502: the RCS protocol test platform modifies relevant fields such as IP address, port and the like in the RCS service registration request message, and then forwards the modified RCS service registration request message (SIP REGISTER) to the RCS service server;

step 503: after receiving the RCS service registration request message, the RCS service server considers that the RCS service registration request message is a real RCS service registration request message, and interacts with the current network HSS to perform AKA authentication and authorization on the terminal to be tested. The RCS service server replies a SIP 401 Unauuthorized (nonce) message to the RCS protocol test platform, wherein the SIP 401 Unauuthorized message carries parameters such as RAND and AUTN required by authentication;

step 504: the RCS protocol test platform forwards the SIP 401 Unauuthorized message to a terminal to be tested;

step 505: and after receiving the SIP 401 Unauuthorized message, the terminal to be tested authenticates the network according to the AUTN and RAND carried in the SIP 401 Unauuthorized message. After the authentication is passed, calculating an authentication response RES (namely authentication response data in the embodiment) by using the RAND, and sending a registration message (SIP REGISTER) to the RCS protocol test platform, wherein the registration message carries the authentication response RES;

step 506: the RCS protocol test platform forwards the registration message to the RCS service server;

step 507: after receiving the registration message carrying the authentication response RES, the RCS service server checks whether the actually received authentication response RES is matched with the expected received authentication response XRES, if the actually received authentication response RES is not matched with the expected authentication response XRES, the terminal to be tested is considered to be incapable of passing through network authentication, if the actually received authentication response RES is matched with the expected authentication response XRES, the terminal to be tested is considered to pass through network authentication, after the actually received authentication response RES is matched with the expected authentication response XRES successfully, the terminal to be tested is interacted with the HSS, the registration information of the terminal to be tested in the HSS is updated, and an authentication success response (SIP 200OK) message is sent to the RCS protocol test platform.

In the embodiment of the present invention, it is assumed that the actually received authentication response RES and the expected received authentication response XRES are successfully matched.

Step 508: and the RCS protocol test platform forwards the SIP 200OK message to the terminal to be tested.

Step 509: after the authentication is completed, the RCS protocol test platform does not forward the interactive message of the service (such as subscription service, message service or other services), but automatically processes the service corresponding to the interactive message of the service, and replies the terminal to be tested according to the processing result.

The RCS protocol testing method according to the embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to a specific network scenario.

In the embodiment of the invention, the method is an application scene that a Native terminal authenticates SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) services. The SIP-class service authentication of the Native terminal is based on IMS AKA, HTTP Digest AKAv1(RFC 3310) is used, and the user subscription data is stored in the provincial HSS.

The P-CSCF in the embodiment of the present invention is used to implement the function of the RCS protocol test platform in the above embodiment, and the I-CSCF and the S-CSCF in the embodiment of the present invention are used to implement the function of the RCS service server in the above embodiment.

Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic flowchart of an RCS protocol testing method according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention, where the RCS protocol testing method includes the following steps:

step 601: the user initiates SIP service operation, such as new message operation, on the terminal to be tested.

Step 602: the method comprises the following steps that a terminal to be tested and a corresponding access control function module (provided with a SBC (Session Border Controller) and a P-CSCF function, and expressed by P-CSCF in the following), a TLS (Transport Layer Security) tunnel is established, namely TLS handshake (TLS handshake) is carried out, and the specific process is as follows:

1) the terminal uses TLS to create TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) handshake to the P-CSCF encryption port;

2) because the terminal accesses the encrypted port, the P-CSCF firstly issues a certificate and a public key of the P-CSCF;

3) the terminal verifies the credibility of the P-CSCF according to the certificate, whether the identity in the certificate is consistent with the domain name of the P-CSCF needs to be verified, and if the certificate is verified successfully, the terminal negotiates a TLS key with the P-CSCF and establishes a TLS encryption channel;

4) the P-CSCF sets a timer for the TLS link, and if the P-CSCF receives a message within the time threshold of the timer, the TLS link is maintained; otherwise, the TLS link is torn down.

Step 603: the terminal to be tested initiates an RCS service registration request message (REGISTER), carries IMPI and is placed in an Authorization header field.

A sample of the RCS service registration request message may be as follows:

Content-Length:0

step 604: after receiving the RCS service registration request message, the P-CSCF forwards the RCS service registration request message to an I-CSCF (session control function module).

Step 605-606: the I-CSCF queries the HSS for the address (Selection-Info) of the S-CSCF and sends an RCS service registration request message to the S-CSCF (session control function module).

After receiving the registration request message, the S-CSCF performs the following processing:

judging whether an available authentication vector exists in the S-CSCF;

if there is no authentication vector available in the S-CSCF, step 407 is executed, and the S-CSCF sends an authentication vector set request (MAR) to the HSS, where the request carries the number m of the required authentication vectors (m is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 5).

If there is an authentication vector available in the S-CSCF, step 409 is performed directly.

Step 607-608: after receiving an Authentication vector set request of the S-CSCF, the province HSS judges that the Authentication mode of the terminal to be tested is IMS AKA according to the fact that the Authentication-Scheme parameter value in the message is 'Digest-AKAv 1-SHA 256', calculates a quintuple according to user subscription information and returns n Authentication vectors (each Authentication vector comprises RAND, AUTN, XRES, CK and IK) sorted based on sequence numbers to the S-CSCF, wherein n is equal to or less than m.

Step 609: the S-CSCF selects an authentication vector from the authentication vector set according to the principle of first-in first-out to send 401 Challenge messages (401_ Auth _ Challenge) to the I-CSCF, wherein the messages carry parameters IMPI, RAND, AUTN, CK and IK, and the authentication vector is contained in a WWW-authentication header field.

Step 610: the I-CSCF forwards the 401 challenge message to the P-CSCF.

Step 611: after receiving the 401 challenge message, the P-CSCF extracts and stores the IK and CK (cipher pair) from the 401 challenge message, and continues to send the remaining parameters RAND, AUTN, and IMPI in the 401 challenge message to the terminal to be tested.

The 401 challenge message sample is as follows:

step 612: after receiving the 401 challenge message, the terminal to be tested calculates XMAC according to AUTN and RAND in the 401 challenge message, compares the XMAC with the MAC value in the AUTN to determine whether the XMAC is consistent with the MAC value in the AUTN, and compares a sequence number SQN in the AUTN. After the authentication of the terminal to be tested to the network passes, the RAND is used for calculating an authentication response RES (authentication response), placing the response RES (authentication response) in an authentication header field, and sending the response RES (authentication response) to the P-CSCF through a registration message (register). The registration message carries the IMPI and Authentication response of the terminal to be tested.

A sample registration message is as follows:

step 613-615: the P-CSCF receives the register message and sends it to the I-CSCF, which queries (Query) the address to the S-CSCF from the HSS and sends the register message to the S-CSCF. And the S-CSCF receives the registration message, checks whether the authentication response RES in the registration message is matched with the expected received authentication response XRES, if the authentication response RES in the registration message is matched with the expected received authentication response XRES successfully, the terminal to be tested passes the network authentication, otherwise, the terminal cannot pass the network authentication.

Step 616-617: S-CSCF sends SAR (Server-Assignment-Request) message to HSS, updates the registration information of the terminal to be tested in HSS, HSS returns SAA (Server-Assignment-Answer) message to S-CSCF:

if the IMPU of the terminal to be tested is not registered currently, the HSS updates the registration information to be registered;

Step 618 to 620: and after the S-CSCF receives the SAA message, the S-CSCF sends an authentication success response (200_ Auth _ OK) message to the terminal to be tested through the I-CSCF and the P-CSCF, and the authentication of the user is completed.

Examples of the authentication success response message are as follows:
