Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of communication, in particular to a method and a system for zero APN configuration.
Background
The present invention relates to an invention patent application CN 201610978850.8 in 2016, which discloses an APN adaptive configuration device, comprising: the mobile terminal comprises a category module, a service module and a service module, wherein the category module is used for acquiring the category of a user identification card in the mobile terminal when an effective network service access event of the mobile terminal is detected; a group module, configured to search, in a pre-configured mapping table, an APN parameter group corresponding to the category of the subscriber identity card; and the configuration module is used for configuring the APN parameters of the mobile terminal according to the searched APN parameters in the APN parameter group. The invention also discloses an APN self-adaptive configuration method. The invention does not need manual configuration of a user, can effectively and timely adapt to the requirements of the user identification card and configure the APN parameter of the mobile terminal.
The disadvantages of this solution are: the scheme needs to store apn configuration information corresponding to all cards in a pre-configured mapping table, for network operators in some regions, the configuration information apn is not public and only known by users, so that the configuration information cannot be stored in the mapping table in advance, and the scheme fails.
In the actual use process, the APN is configured on site through a notebook by operation and maintenance personnel. Most routers in the market at present need to have a networking function using a SIM card, and need to embed an APN corresponding to the area. In most cases, a lot of manufacturers can embed APNs known in most regions, and after the router equipment leaves a factory, the router can almost work in a normal networking mode without additional configuration actions of users. But there are some areas where APNs are specific and routers are not built in, resulting in the inability of the user to use the device directly. In order to solve the problem, the existing solution is that a client connects to a computer terminal for each router device, logs in a setup webpage of the router, adds a new APN again, saves the APN, then restarts the APN, and then arranges the APN on an industrial site.
The method for configuring the APN has poor flexibility, and if the router is already arranged in an industrial field, the router is also configured on the field with a notebook computer, and the equipment can be normally used after the configuration is effective. And the configuration cost is high, and the configuration process needs to refer to the use document in detail to be configured well. Overall, the cost of use is relatively high.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the structures of embodiments 1 and 2 of the present invention;
fig. 2 is a flowchart of embodiment 1 of the present invention.
Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Example 1
Referring to fig. 1-2, a method for zero APN configuration relates to a server 1, a mobile terminal 2, and a plurality of device terminals 3, wherein the server 1 is configured to store and modify APN configuration information of the device terminals 3; the equipment end 3 is provided with identification information with a unique identity;
the APN determines which access mode the terminal accesses to the network and is used for identifying the service type of the GPRS.
APNs are divided into two main categories:
WAP services.
Services other than WAP, such as: the internet is connected.
From the perspective of an operator, an APN is a logical name, and generally, the APN is deployed on GGSN equipment or logically connected to GGSN, and when a user uses GPRS to surf the internet, the APN is proxied to an external network through GGSN, so that APN setting, filtering, statistics, and the like become one of parameters having important reference values for GPRS charging and GPRS charges (because the APN can distinguish a service or an external network). A complete description of APN is defined in detail in the 3GPP specification ts23.003class 9.
The method of the invention comprises the following steps:
step 1: the mobile terminal 2 acquires the identification information of the equipment terminal 3 on the equipment site;
the identification information is generally an SN code, but may also be a MAC address, or an SN code and a MAC address.
The most convenient way is: the mobile terminal 2 attaches the bar code for identifying the SN code and the MAC address of the device to the conspicuous position of the device, and the mobile terminal 2, such as a mobile phone and a tablet computer, obtains the identification information of the device terminal 3 by scanning the bar code.
In time application, the mobile terminal 2 is internally provided with an APP for implementing the method of the present invention, and the APP is started before scanning.
Certainly, other ways are not excluded, such as a radio frequency receiving module is built in the mobile terminal 2, the device terminal 3 is provided with a radio frequency transmitting module, and it is also feasible to obtain the corresponding identification information by obtaining the radio frequency signal containing the identification information of the device terminal 3 sent by the device terminal 3 close to the device terminal 3.
Or through automatic bluetooth connection, the mobile terminal 2 sends identification information request information to the device terminal 3 through the bluetooth module, and the device terminal 3 feeds back identification information to the mobile terminal 2.
Step 2: the mobile terminal 2 sends the identification information to the server; the server stores identification information of each equipment terminal 3 and APN configuration information corresponding to the identification information in advance; the server is used for feeding back corresponding APN configuration information to the mobile terminal 2 after receiving the identification information;
in step 2, there are two cases, one is a batch configuration and the other is a targeted configuration.
For a batched APN configuration process, a batched configuration is performed by using a common point of SN codes of batched devices.
For example, a customer purchases 100 devices, the devices are manufactured in the same manufacturer, an MES system of the manufacturer generally performs centralized production on the batch of devices according to a customer order, and at this time, the MES system of the manufacturer allocates 100 SN codes of the 100 devices, for example, 15 digits, where the first 12 digits are the same, for example, 201909270000, and at this time, when the server performs APN configuration on each SN code, a rule is set, that is, the same APN configuration is set for a device with 201909270000 as the first 12 digits of the SN codes, so that only one APN configuration needs to be configured for one device at the time of setting, and then other devices automatically adopt the same APN configuration, which can significantly save workload.
In another case, the APN configuration needs to be performed separately for the SN code and the MAC address on the server by an operator and then stored.
And step 3: the mobile terminal 2 receives APN configuration information sent by the server and sends the APN configuration information to the equipment terminal 3; and the equipment terminal 3 finishes APN dial-up networking according to the APN configuration information.
Generally, the server in this embodiment is a cloud server, and the mobile terminal 2 and the cloud server perform information interaction through 3G, 4G or 5G communication. After acquiring the APN configuration information, the mobile terminal 2 preferably sends the information to the device terminal 3 through bluetooth.
When the device side 3 obtains the APN configuration information, it will copy the APN configuration file to the default read position of the system dial-up networking. After the device is restarted, the device end 3 can normally dial up through the APN.
In this embodiment, the device side 3 refers to a device, preferably a router, that performs network communication through the SIM card.
The method of the invention can realize the non-inductive configuration of the APN of the equipment, and as long as the operation and maintenance personnel can obtain the identification information by means of scanning, radio frequency, Bluetooth and the like, the equipment terminal 3 can automatically configure the APN equipment terminal 3 without manual participation, thereby effectively reducing the labor intensity and improving the installation speed.
Example 2
Referring to fig. 2, a zero APN configuration system for implementing embodiment 1 includes a service end 1, one or more mobile ends 2;
in order to implement the method of embodiment 1, the server 1 is preferably a cloud server, and a software-remote cloud platform control management system (RCMS) is built in the server 1, and works in cooperation with a mobile terminal 2, such as an app built in a mobile phone.
The main functional roles of the server 1 are as follows: storing the identification information and APN configuration information of the peripheral equipment terminal 3, modifying the APN configuration information of the equipment terminal 3 and realizing the correspondence of the request of the mobile terminal 2 by communicating with the mobile terminal 2.
In some application scenarios, the remote cloud platform control management system further has a function of configuring the same APN configuration information for a plurality of device terminals 3 with the same position before the SN code in an automatic batch manner.
The mobile terminal 2 is generally a mobile phone or a tablet, and an app is built in the mobile terminal 2, and the main function of the app is to acquire identification information of the device terminal 3, send the identification information to the server terminal 1, and send APN configuration information sent by the server terminal 1 to the device terminal 3.
The mobile terminal 2 is provided with Bluetooth, and a camera, a radio frequency receiving module and the like can be configured according to needs.
It will be evident to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the foregoing illustrative embodiments, and that the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential attributes thereof. The present embodiments are therefore to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim concerned.
