Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The following description refers to the accompanying drawings in which the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the invention, as detailed in the appended claims.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for simulating communication of a terminal device, which is applied to a proxy server, according to an exemplary embodiment, and is shown in fig. 1, including the following steps:

step S101, receiving simulation configuration information sent by a test server;

step S102, configuring a virtual address of a proxy server according to simulation configuration information, wherein the virtual address is an address determined according to a target geographical position to be simulated by the proxy server;

and step S103, when the routing equipment connected with the terminal equipment communicates with the target server requested by the terminal equipment, forwarding communication data between the routing equipment and the target server by using the virtual address.

The proxy server is a server for simulating other geographical positions, and the functions of the proxy server can be realized by using a server device of an entity or simulation software configured on a routing device or other devices.

The testing server is used for configuring the proxy server, after the proxy server receives the simulation configuration information of the testing server, the virtual address can be determined according to the simulation configuration information, and the geographic position marked in the virtual address is the target geographic position to be simulated. The target geographic location is different from the actual geographic location of the proxy server. Because different geographical locations may use different network protocol standards, etc., when the proxy server establishes a connection with the routing device at an actual geographical location, and when the proxy server establishes a connection with the routing device at a virtual target geographical location, the communication environment of the terminal device may be different, and the transmission parameters of the communication data may also be different.

The geographic location and the communication address used for communication have a corresponding relationship, for example, different geographic locations are mapped with different communication addresses, and in this case, the target geographic location is different from the communication address mapped by the actual geographic location of the proxy server. In view of this, the virtual address obtained by the proxy server is a communication address having a corresponding relationship with the target geographic location, and the communication address includes, but is not limited to, an IP address.

That is, the virtual address may be configured for the proxy server by the test server regardless of the actual geographic location of the proxy server. The virtual address may include a communication address, such as an IP address, used by the terminal device to communicate. The virtual address includes location information of a simulated target geographic location, for example: country code, area code, etc. The above-mentioned country code, area code, etc. representing the location information may be located in different fields of the virtual address. For example, the information contained in the field a of the virtual address is country information, and the information contained in the field b is regional information of the country, and so on. Different countries or regions may correspond to different communication environments, use different network protocol standards, etc. In the field containing the location information in the virtual address, different country codes or area codes point to different geographical locations such as different countries or areas. Therefore, when the terminal device needs to perform data communication, the routing device can identify the target geographic location according to the relevant field in the virtual address, and configure a corresponding data forwarding policy.

Therefore, if the communication performance of the terminal device at different geographic positions needs to be tested, the geographic position of the proxy server connected with the terminal device can be simulated in advance, and then the data communication of the terminal device at the target geographic position is simulated, so that the communication performance of the terminal device at different geographic positions can be tested. For example, the geographic locations of the terminal device and the proxy server are both within country a, while the terminal device is ready for sale to country B. And country B uses a different network protocol standard from country a, and therefore, the terminal device has a difference in network environment between when performing data communication in country a and when performing data communication in country B.

Assuming that country a and country C use the same network protocol standard, if the terminal device needs to access the target server in country C, forwarding by other servers may not be needed, but the target server may be directly accessed. And if the terminal equipment is in the B country, forwarding is required to be carried out through a proxy server of the B country. Therefore, before shipping, the communication condition of the terminal device in the country B can be simulated by configuring the virtual address of the proxy server as the address located in the country B and then forwarding the data between the terminal device and the proxy server through the routing device. And setting a target server which the terminal equipment needs to access to in country C, forwarding data sent by the terminal equipment to the proxy server through the routing equipment, and forwarding the data to the target server through the proxy server.

Through the steps, the virtual address of the proxy server can be configured by the test server, and the simulation of different geographic positions of the terminal equipment is realized, so that the communication performance of the terminal equipment is tested under different simulated geographic position conditions, and the difference of the communication performance of the terminal equipment caused by the difference between the test environment and the environment in actual use is reduced.

In some embodiments, the forwarding, by the virtual address, communication data between the routing device and the target server includes:

receiving first communication data sent by the routing equipment by taking the virtual address as a destination address; and/or the presence of a gas in the gas,

Here, the first communication data refers to communication data that is sent by the terminal device, sent to the proxy server via the routing device, and forwarded to the destination server by the proxy server.

When the simulated communication test of the terminal device is performed, the routing device will forward the first communication data sent by the terminal device to the proxy server, that is, the virtual address of the proxy server will be used as the destination address of the forwarding data of the routing device, and receive the first communication data sent by the routing device.

When the proxy server receives the first communication data sent by the routing device, the address of the target server of the first communication data can be determined through the address information carried in the first communication data. And then forwarding the first communication data to the target server by taking the virtual address of the proxy server as a source address and the address of the target server as a destination address.

Therefore, the simulated communication process of forwarding the first communication data sent by the terminal device to the target server under the communication environment of the simulated geographical position is realized.

In some embodiments, the sending the first communication data to the destination server of the terminal device with the virtual address as the source address includes:

The first communication data is data transmitted by the terminal device to the target server, and the first communication data includes address information of the target server. Therefore, when the proxy server forwards the first communication data, the destination address of the destination server needs to be determined according to the address information in the first communication data. The first communication data is then sent from the virtual address of the proxy server to the target address of the target server. That is, in this process of transmitting data, the virtual address serves as the source address of the communication, and the destination address of the destination server serves as the destination address of the communication.

For example, region a and region B use different network communication protocols. When the terminal equipment is in the area A, if the target server of the area A is to be accessed, the terminal equipment can be directly accessed without forwarding other servers. When the terminal device is in the B area, the data transfer needs to be performed through the proxy server in the B area, and the target server in the a area can be accessed. Therefore, the virtual address carrying the information of the area B is used as the address of the proxy server, and the virtual address is used as the source address or the destination address when the routing equipment performs data forwarding, so that the simulation of the communication process of the terminal equipment accessing the target server of the area A when the terminal equipment is in the area B is realized.

Therefore, the process that when the terminal device carries out data communication at the target geographic position, the local proxy server of the target geographic position forwards the data to the target server can be simulated. The simulation detection of the actual communication process is facilitated.

In some embodiments, forwarding the communication data between the routing device and the destination server by using the virtual address includes:

receiving second communication data sent by the target server by taking the virtual address as a destination address; and/or the presence of a gas in the atmosphere,

For communication data sent by a remote target server to a terminal device, under a target geographic position, a local proxy server of the target geographic position is required to forward the communication data from the remote target server to a routing device connected with the terminal device. Therefore, the proxy server simulates the target geographic position, and forwards the communication data sent to the terminal device by the target server by using the virtual address, thereby simulating the process of receiving the data by the terminal device. The data receiving capacity of the terminal equipment is simulated and tested by analyzing the data receiving process of the terminal equipment. For example, in a network environment where a geographical location is simulated, requirements such as a communication test and a communication abnormality analysis under a limited network parameter when data communication is performed on a terminal device are satisfied.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating an analog communication method of a terminal device, which is applied to a routing device, according to an exemplary embodiment, and includes the following steps, as shown in fig. 2:

step S201, acquiring simulation configuration information sent by a test server, where the simulation configuration information includes: the virtual address of the proxy server is determined according to the target geographic position to be simulated by the proxy server;

and S202, forwarding communication data between the terminal equipment and the proxy server by taking the virtual address as the address of the proxy server.

The routing equipment is connected with the terminal equipment, provides routing service for the terminal equipment and enables the terminal equipment to carry out normal data communication in the Internet. When a communication process of simulating the target geographic position is needed, simulation configuration information of the proxy server can be obtained from the test server. The simulation configuration information contains the virtual address of the proxy server, and in the communication process, the physical terminal device receives and transmits the address of the target server of the communication data. The routing equipment only carries out data forwarding between the virtual address of the proxy server and the address of the terminal equipment. Therefore, the communication process that the local proxy server forwards data when the terminal equipment communicates at the target geographic position is simulated.

In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

configuring a virtual address and a flow forwarding rule according to the simulation configuration information;

the forwarding of communication data between the terminal device and the proxy server by using the virtual address as the address of the proxy server includes:

After the routing device obtains the simulation configuration information, it needs to configure a virtual address as a destination address when forwarding data sent by the terminal device, and sets a traffic forwarding rule. The traffic forwarding rule includes parameters such as bandwidth and speed allocated when the traffic is forwarded, and a rule for processing and forwarding the communication data after the communication data is received.

After the configuration is completed, the routing device can be used as an intermediate node between the terminal device and the proxy server, and forwards data between the terminal device and the proxy server according to the traffic forwarding rule.

receiving first communication data sent by terminal equipment;

And in the process of forwarding data by the routing equipment, when first communication data sent by the terminal equipment is received, the virtual address of the proxy server is used as a destination address, and the first communication data is sent to the proxy server.

No matter the final destination address of the first communication data, the first communication data are forwarded to the proxy server through the routing device, and then forwarded to the target server by the proxy server. In this way, it is possible to simulate a communication process in which the terminal device transmits the first communication data to the remote target server, thereby facilitating detection of a communication state of the communication process, data transceiving capability of the terminal device, and the like.

receiving second communication data sent by the proxy server by using the virtual address as a source address;

the second communication data is transmitted to the terminal device.

When a target server communicating with the terminal device sends the second communication data to the terminal device, the second communication data is forwarded to the proxy server. And the proxy server sends the second communication data to the routing equipment. Therefore, the virtual address of the proxy server is used as the source address and the address of the routing device is used as the destination address in the communication process.

And after receiving the second communication data sent by the proxy server, the routing equipment sends the second communication data to the terminal equipment. Thus, the simulated communication process of the terminal device receiving the second communication data sent by the target server is completed.

acquiring a simulation test instruction;

sending an address acquisition request to a test server according to the simulation test instruction;

The simulation test instruction is used for triggering the routing equipment to initiatively initiate a request, and acquiring simulation configuration information and the like provided by the test server. When the simulation communication test of the geographic position needs to be carried out, an address acquisition request is actively sent to acquire the address of the proxy server, and then the simulation test communication is carried out.

The simulated test instructions may be provided by other devices connected to the routing device, such as a test terminal of a tester. Or, the related information of the simulation test instruction may be preset on the routing device directly, and the simulation test instruction may be triggered and obtained by setting time, period, event, or the like.

Because the routing equipment can be connected with a plurality of terminals, the mode of acquiring the simulation test instruction through the routing equipment supports respective operation of a plurality of persons, and the control of one test terminal by one tester is not limited. Moreover, if the relevant information of the simulation test instruction is preset on the routing equipment, the test is automatically triggered according to the triggering condition without repeated setting or manual triggering. Therefore, by the method, the testing efficiency can be effectively improved, and the application scene of the test is enlarged.

In some embodiments, the obtaining the simulation test instruction includes:

receiving a simulation test instruction sent by any electronic equipment connected with the routing equipment; or the like, or a combination thereof,

and acquiring a simulation test instruction generated by the routing equipment according to preset detection time.

Here, any of the electronic devices may be various devices connected to the routing device, including: a computer, a cell phone, a server, or other type of device. Through the electronic devices, a simulation test instruction can be sent to the routing device, and the routing device is triggered to actively send an address acquisition request. The method is not limited by a test terminal corresponding to one tester, and can realize respective tests of multiple persons.

Alternatively, the routing device may preset relevant policies for testing, at specified testing time or other penalty conditions, such as: for example: the method has the advantages that the routing equipment is triggered to automatically generate the simulation test instruction under the trigger conditions that the idle time of the routing equipment is larger than the preset threshold value or new terminal equipment is accessed into the routing equipment, and the like, so that manual operation is not needed, testers and test time are not limited, and the test can be carried out at any time.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for simulating communication of a terminal device, which is applied to a test server, according to an exemplary embodiment, and as shown in fig. 3, the method includes the following steps:

s301, acquiring a target geographical position to be simulated;

step S302, determining simulation configuration information of a configuration proxy server according to the target geographic position;

step S303, sending simulation configuration information to the proxy server, and configuring a virtual address of the proxy server;

and step S304, sending the virtual address to the routing equipment connected with the terminal equipment.

The test server provides relevant configuration of the test for the proxy server and the routing equipment, and the logic code of the test and the simulated target geographical position required by the test can be deployed on the test server. The test server acquires a simulated target geographical position set according to actual test requirements, and then determines simulated configuration information for configuring the proxy server according to the target geographical position.

For different test requirements, different simulation configuration information can be determined according to different target geographic positions, and then different virtual addresses are configured for the proxy server. And sending the configured simulation configuration information corresponding to the proxy server to the routing equipment so that the routing equipment performs related configuration of traffic forwarding.

Therefore, related information or logic codes of the simulation test do not need to be deployed on routing equipment with poor safety and processing capacity, and terminal equipment limited to testing personnel is not needed. Therefore, the maintenance and the updating of the test related information are convenient, and the operation is convenient.

In some embodiments, the sending the virtual address to the routing device connected to the terminal device includes:

receiving an address acquisition request sent by routing equipment;

When the simulation test is needed, the routing device actively sends an address acquisition request from the test server to acquire the configured virtual address of the proxy server. When the routing equipment confirms that the test can be carried out, the simulation test is initiated at any time, and the operation and the control are convenient. In addition, the routing equipment can be connected with a plurality of different terminal equipment, so that the plurality of terminal equipment can respectively control the routing equipment to initiate the simulation test. Through the cooperation of the test server and the routing equipment, a convenient and safe simulation test environment is provided.

Embodiments of the present disclosure also provide the following examples:

the method can be applied to the simulation test of terminal equipment such as Internet of things equipment. For example, the terminal device is an internet of things device sold in country a, and the current geographic location of the internet of things device is country B. At this time, the internet of things device transmits data to the server in country B, so that it cannot be determined whether the internet of things device requests the server in country B or selects different servers according to the country and region automatically. Therefore, by using the method of the embodiment of the disclosure, no matter where the geographical position of the internet of things device is, the internet of things device can be regarded as being in country a, and then the communication process of the internet of things device is detected.

In some embodiments, a test terminal of a tester has a wireless communication function, and a hotspot is opened to connect the internet of things devices. And finally, communication data of the equipment of the Internet of things is forwarded to the proxy server on the test terminal of a tester, and the flow of the equipment of the Internet of things is forwarded to a remote target server by the proxy server.

The above method can only forward data within the time when the test terminal of the tester is turned on, and the test terminal of the tester has the configuration requirement. And the operation and test operation is limited by the test terminal of the tester, so that the mode inversion test of different terminal equipment at any time is difficult to realize.

Therefore, by means of the method in the embodiment of the disclosure, testing terminals of testers are not required, and simulation testing of the internet of things equipment by multiple people and multiple terminals can be supported.

Firstly, an address of a geographical position which is required to be used by the terminal equipment is configured to be used as a virtual address, and the proxy server is configured by the virtual address. The terminal equipment is networked through the routing equipment, the routing equipment acquires simulation configuration information from the test cloud, and the configuration comprises a proxy server address, a terminal equipment flow forwarding rule and the like. When the terminal device sends a request to a remote target server, the request passes through the routing device, and the routing device forwards the data traffic by using the configured proxy server.

In the following, a DNS (Domain Name System, Domain Name resolution service) request is taken as an example for explanation, and as shown in fig. 4, the method includes the following steps:

step S401, the routing equipment acquires simulation configuration information from a test server; wherein the simulated configuration information comprises simulated geographical location information;

s402, the test server returns simulation configuration information to the routing equipment;

step S403, the terminal device sends a DNS request to the target server and forwards the request through the routing device;

step S404, the routing equipment forwards the DNS request to a corresponding proxy server according to the simulation configuration information;

step S405, the proxy server forwards the DNS request of the terminal equipment to a target server;

step S406, the target server returns a DNS response to the proxy server;

step S407, the proxy server returns a DNS response to the routing equipment;

and step S408, the routing equipment returns a DNS response to the terminal equipment.

The communication data is forwarded through the proxy server, and no matter the terminal equipment or the target server judges the geographic position of the terminal equipment, the terminal equipment is considered to be located at the geographic position indicated by the virtual address of the proxy server. Therefore, the simulation of the geographic position in the communication process of the terminal equipment is realized.
