The character "/" herein generally indicates that the associated object is an "or" relationship unless otherwise specified.
For easy understanding, the technical background of the embodiments of the present invention will be described first.
As mentioned above, how to reasonably manage the resources of accessing to the video conference is a technical problem to be solved at present. At present, one scheme is that a video networking terminal is accessed to a video networking server, the video networking server and a video networking gateway are accessed to a video networking gateway management platform, an internet terminal is connected to the video networking gateway, when the video networking terminal and the internet terminal communicate, the video networking gateway management platform applies for a first virtual terminal positioned in the video networking and a second virtual terminal positioned in the internet to the video networking gateway, the video networking gateway management platform mobilizes the first virtual terminal and the internet terminal to establish call connection, and mobilizes the second virtual terminal and the video networking terminal to establish call connection, so that the video networking terminal and the internet terminal communicate media data. That is, in the current scheme, a set of gateway management system needs to be additionally built to perform gateway cluster management, and the gateway cluster management system runs in parallel with the original video conference system cluster, so that the operation and maintenance management complexity is higher and the hardware resource cost is high.
In view of this, the embodiment of the present application provides a video conference method, when a video conference server receives access conference request information sent by a terminal, a type tag of the terminal is obtained, a type of the terminal (whether an intranet terminal or an extranet terminal) is determined according to the type tag, and after the type of the terminal is determined, an accessible media node is allocated to the terminal according to a service range of the media node. The media nodes allocated to the intranet terminal can be media nodes with service ranges of intranet and general purpose, and the media nodes allocated to the extranet terminal can be media nodes with service ranges of extranet and general purpose. And finally, the media node information distributed for the terminal is sent to the terminal, so that the terminal accesses the video conference through the media node. The media nodes are used for fusing images sent by the terminals in the video conference server, mixing sounds sent by the terminals and the like, and the terminals which need to be accessed to the video conference are accessed to the media nodes in the video conference server, so that the video conference server performs unified scheduling on media node cluster resources, terminal access and conference media stream processing multiplexing are achieved, and therefore overall hardware server resources are saved. In addition, because the terminal is accessed based on the original video conference server media node cluster, additional gateways and gateway management systems are not required to be developed and deployed, so that the variety of the server is reduced, and the complexity of deployment and operation and maintenance management is greatly simplified.
After the design concept of the embodiment of the present application is introduced, some simple descriptions are made below for application scenarios applicable to the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, and it should be noted that the application scenarios described below are only used to illustrate the embodiment of the present application and are not limiting. In specific implementation, the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application can be flexibly applied according to actual needs.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is an application scenario to which the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application may be applied. In this application scenario, a video conference server (e.g. also referred to as a multipoint control unit MCU), a router, an intranet terminal and an extranet terminal are included, wherein the video conference server comprises a signaling service node and a media node. The signaling service node in MCU is directly connected with the intranet terminal and mapped to the external network through the router, the external network terminal is connected with the signaling service node through the router, so that the terminal sends a meeting information access request to the signaling service node through the router. The media node used for connecting the intranet terminal in the MCU is directly connected with the intranet terminal, the media node used for connecting the extranet terminal is mapped to the extranet through the router, and the extranet terminal is connected with the media node through the router, so that the terminal is accessed to the video conference through the media node. Each media node for connecting with the external network terminal is connected with an independent router and has an independent external network IP, and each media node can be connected with a plurality of terminals at the same time. It should be noted that, the video conference method provided in the embodiment of the present application is performed by a video conference server, specifically, by a signaling service node in the video conference server.
For example, as can be seen from fig. 1, the intranet terminal 1 is directly connected with the signaling service node, and the signaling service node is mapped to the external network through the router a, and the external network terminal 2 and the external network terminal 3 are connected with the signaling service node through the router a; the media node 1 is a media node for accessing the intranet terminal, so the intranet terminal 1 is directly connected with the media node 1, the media node 3 and the media node 4 are media nodes for accessing the extranet terminal, the media node 3 is mapped to the extranet through the router B, the extranet terminal 2 is connected with the media node 3 through the router 3, and the media node 4 is mapped to the extranet through the router C, and the extranet terminal 3 is connected with the media node 4 through the router C.
The following describes the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application with reference to the attached drawings.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart of a video conference method according to an embodiment of the present application. The flow chart of the method shown in fig. 2 is described as follows:
step 201: and receiving an access conference request sent by the terminal.
Step 202: and when receiving a conference request sent by the terminal, acquiring the type mark of the terminal.
In the embodiment of the application, when a user needs to access a video conference, an access conference request is sent through a terminal, and when the video conference server receives the access conference request sent by the terminal, the type mark of the terminal is obtained. The video conference server adds a mark for the terminal when the terminal registers with the video conference server, so that the video conference server can determine whether the type of the terminal belongs to an intranet terminal or an extranet terminal according to the type mark. For example, the type of the terminal is marked by a from wan value, when the terminal registers with the video conference server, if the from wan value added by the video conference server is False, the terminal is indicated to be an intranet terminal, and if the from wan value added by the video conference server is True, the terminal is indicated to be an extranet terminal. Accordingly, the videoconference server can determine the type of terminal by acquiring the from wan value of the terminal.
In one possible implementation, the terminal also needs to register with the videoconference server before sending an access conference request to the videoconference server. When registering a terminal, firstly, a registration signaling request is sent To a video conference server, wherein the registration signaling request comprises a To field, and the To field comprises an IP address of the terminal. When receiving a registration signaling request of a terminal, a signaling service node in a video conference server analyzes an IP address in a To field of the registration signaling request To obtain an IP address of the terminal, matches the IP address of the terminal with a local IP address list, marks the terminal as an intranet terminal (for example, a from wan value is set as False) if the IP address of the terminal exists in the local IP address list, and marks the terminal as an extranet terminal (for example, a from wan value is set as True) if the IP address of the terminal does not exist in the local IP address list. When the video conference server is started, the signaling service node acquires all network port IPs of the signaling service node as a local IP address list, and stores the local IP address list.
In a specific implementation process, in order to have the authority of accessing the video conference server, the terminal needs to register in the video conference server before accessing the video conference server, and when registering, the signaling service node in the video conference server only marks the type of the terminal (whether the terminal belongs to an intranet terminal or an extranet terminal) and does not store the terminal. When a terminal needs to be accessed to a video conference, the video conference server can determine the type of the terminal by acquiring the type mark of the terminal, so that the operation efficiency of the video conference server can be effectively improved.
Step 203: and determining the terminal type according to the mark.
As described above, when the terminal registers, the videoconference server determines the IP address of the terminal according To the To field in the registration signaling request sent by the terminal, and then matches the IP address with the local IP address list of the signaling service node, and adds different flags for different terminal types (for example, setting the from wan value of the intranet terminal To False, and setting the from wan value of the extranet terminal To True). In this embodiment of the present application, if the from wan value of the terminal acquired by the video conference server is False, the terminal is determined to be an intranet terminal, and if the from wan value of the terminal acquired by the video conference server is True, the terminal is determined to be an extranet terminal.
Step 204: and distributing the accessible media nodes to the terminal according to the terminal type and the service range of the media nodes.
In the embodiment of the application, after determining the type of the terminal, the video conference server may allocate an accessible media node to the terminal according to the service range of the media node. The service range of the media node comprises an intranet, an extranet and a general purpose, the media node with the service range being the intranet is used for accessing the intranet terminal, the media node with the service range being the extranet is used for accessing the extranet terminal, and the media node with the service range being the general purpose can be accessed to the intranet terminal or the extranet terminal. Therefore, after the type of the terminal is determined, the intranet terminal can be allocated with media nodes with service ranges of intranet and general purpose, and the extranet terminal can be allocated with media nodes with service ranges of extranet and general purpose.
In one possible implementation, before the terminal is allocated with the accessible media nodes according to the type of the terminal and the service range of the media nodes, it is further required to configure the service range for each media node according to the video conference requirement, i.e. determine which media nodes are used for accessing the intranet terminal and which media nodes are used for accessing the extranet terminal. The video conference requirement is a requirement that a client puts forward to a video conference system developer according to the requirement of the client, and the video conference requirement comprises the number of intranet terminals and the number of extranet terminals which need to be accessed into the video conference during the video conference.
Specifically, the method for setting the service scope for each media node is that a configuration item "service scope" is newly added to the configuration pages of all media nodes, options set in the service scope include intranet, extranet and general, and when a service object (for example, an intranet terminal or an extranet terminal) of the media node is determined, the corresponding option is checked.
In the embodiment of the present application, when the environments in which the MCUs are located are different, the manner of setting the service range for the media node is also different, and specifically, the following cases are provided:
first kind: in the local area network environment, the MCU can only access an intranet terminal and can not access an extranet terminal, and at the moment, the service range of the media node can be set as intranet or universal; all media nodes are scheduled in a unified resource pool;
Second kind: the MCU is in a cloud host environment, all media nodes can be accessed to an intranet terminal and an extranet terminal, and the service range of the media nodes can be set to be 'extranet' or 'universal', wherein the media nodes of the 'extranet' are only used for accessing the extranet terminal, and the media nodes of the 'universal' are used for accessing the intranet terminal and/or the extranet terminal; all media nodes are scheduled in a unified resource pool;
third kind: in the single mapping environment, only MCU hosts in an MCU cluster are mapped to an external network, other MCU slaves are all in the internal network, only the external network IP is needed to be configured for the MCU hosts at the moment, meanwhile, in order to distinguish the single mapping from the multi-node mapping, a single mapping mark (for example, marked as true) is configured, the service range of a media node is set as 'internal network' or 'universal', and at the moment, an external network terminal accesses a conference through an MCU host agent; all media nodes are scheduled in a unified resource pool;
fourth kind: the MCU is in a local area network and multi-node internal and external network mapping environment, at the moment, N media nodes are determined to be used for accessing an external network terminal according to the access requirement of the external network terminal in the video conference requirement, independent exit route bandwidths are respectively allocated for the N media nodes, and a service range is configured as an external network for the N media nodes; and the other media nodes are configured as an intranet in the opposite way, so that the 'partial and complete treatment' of the access resources of the internal and external network terminals is realized, and two independent access resource pools which are not mutually interfered are formed. In this scenario, none of the media nodes can be configured as "generic".
For example, in the environment of mapping between local area network and multi-node internal and external networks, according to the video conference requirement set forth by a client, the MCU of the application knows that 187 intranet terminals need to join the video conference, 105 external network terminals can be accessed to 40 external network terminals, each media node used for accessing the intranet terminal can be accessed to 50 intranet terminals, at this time, according to the video conference requirement, it is determined that 7 media nodes are required in total in the video conference, wherein 4 media nodes are required for accessing 187 intranet terminals (for example, media node a, media node b, media node c and media node d), and 3 media nodes are required for accessing the external network terminals (for example, media node e, media node f and media node g). When the media node a, the media node b, the media node c and the media node d are determined to be used for accessing the intranet terminal, and the media node e, the media node f and the media node g are determined to be used for accessing the extranet terminal, setting the service ranges for the media node a, the media node b, the media node c and the media node d as the intranet, and setting the service ranges for the media node e, the media node f and the media node g as the extranet.
In a possible implementation manner, if the scale of the later video conference is enlarged, when the number of intranet terminals and the number of extranet terminals to be accessed are increased, a media node can be added in the video conference server for accessing the increased terminals, so that high concurrency access of the terminals is realized.
Continuing the above example, in the MCU of the present application in the local area network plus multi-node internal and external network mapping environment, after the scale of the late video conference is enlarged, the number of internal network terminals to be accessed is 233, the number of external network terminals to be accessed is 176, it can be found that the number of internal network terminals to be accessed is greater than 200, the number of external network terminals is greater than 120, at this time, the existing media nodes are insufficient to access all internal network terminals and external network terminals, at this time, 1 media node is determined to be used to access the internal network terminals exceeding 200 parts according to the number of internal network terminals to be accessed, and 2 media nodes are determined to be used to access the external network terminals exceeding 120 parts according to the number of external network terminals to be accessed, at this time, 3 media nodes are added in the video conference server, the service range of 1 media node is set as "internal network", and the service range of the remaining 2 media nodes is set as "external network".
After the service ranges of the media nodes are configured, each media node needs to be mapped to an external network through a router for the media node allocated to the terminal of the external network, a configuration item of "media service IP list" is newly added to each media node configuration page allocated to the terminal of the external network, and the IP address of the media node and the corresponding external network IP address after being mapped to the external network through the router are added in the media service list (for example, the external network IP address may be referred to as rtpIPs). The video conference server may acquire service range and media service IP list information of each media node from the media node when distributing the media node and transmitting the media node information to the terminal.
In one possible implementation, when the service range of the media node is universal, the media node can be simultaneously accessed to the intranet terminal and the extranet terminal. The intranet terminal is directly connected to the media node, and the extranet terminal is connected to the media node through the router. For example, a media node may access 50 terminals, and if 30 intranet terminals have access to the media node, the media node may also access 20 extranet terminals through a router.
In a specific implementation process, network loads accessed by the external network terminal are distributed to a plurality of bandwidths of a plurality of media nodes, so that the broadband characteristic of high cost performance of the broadband of the internet within 500M is fully utilized, and a special line broadband above 500M is not required to be applied, thereby effectively saving the bandwidth cost accessed by the external network terminal.
Step 205: and sending the media node information to the terminal so as to enable the terminal to access the video conference.
In the embodiment of the application, after the video conference server distributes the accessible media nodes for the terminal, the media node information distributed to the terminal is sent to the terminal. And when the accessed terminal is determined to be an external network terminal, the media node information comprises the IP address of the media node and the corresponding IP address after the media node is mapped to the external network through the router, so that the external network terminal is accessed to the video conference through the IP address of the media node and the corresponding IP address after the media node is mapped to the external network through the router.
In a specific implementation process, the media nodes are used as processing nodes of the conference media stream and access nodes of the terminal, so that multiplexing of the media nodes is realized, and the resources of the whole hardware server are effectively saved. Meanwhile, because the terminal is accessed based on the original video conference server media node cluster, additional gateways and gateway management systems are not required to be developed and deployed, so that the variety of the server is reduced, and the complexity of deployment and operation and maintenance management is greatly simplified.
