Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a 5G AP scenario in the prior art, where a base station (also referred to as a node, and denoted by a gNB in NR (New Radio, New air interface)) performs network coverage to form a Cell (Cell), and a PUG Cell can be obtained in the Cell through the 5G AP. In the 5G AP scenario, the following issues need to be considered to implement the configuration of the 5G AP: 1. the 5G AP may support different operator networks; 2. the 5G AP can have different working modes, different working modes and different configuration methods; 3. as public or private mobile communication network deployment, the 5G AP directly connects with public or private mobile communication network core network equipment (e.g., AMF); 4. as a public or private mobile communication network deployment, the 5G AP connects a macro station (Donor gNB) of the public or private mobile communication network; 5. the 5G AP accesses the internet, for example, the 5G AP integrates the core network function of the mobile communication network, and independently completes cell deployment and UE access control. It should be noted that, the above-mentioned "directly connect to the public or private mobile communication network core network device" or "directly connect to the public or private mobile communication network macro station" does not necessarily mean that there is no other device between the 5G AP and the "public or private mobile communication network core network device" or the "public or private mobile communication network macro station", and the two may be connected together through multiple routes through IP.

The HNB presets address information of an initial (initial) HNB Management System (HMS) and an initial Security Gateway (SeGW), and root CA certificate (root CA certificate) trusted by the operator. The HNB performs the HNB-GW discovery procedure based on the preset information, discovers the HNB-GW, and obtains configuration information of Security Gateway (serving), hms (serving), and HNB-GW (optional, because the information may be configured by hms (serving)) from hms (initial).
According to the 32.583 and 25.467 protocols, the process of HNB initialization includes:
step 1, establishing Local Area Network (LAN) network connection between HNB and outer layer DNS; the LAN network connection is used for communication between the HNB and the outer DNS.
Step 2.1 and step 2.2, the HNB sends a DNS request to the outer layer DNS and receives a DNS response returned by the outer layer DNS;
step 2.3, the HNB establishes a secure communication link between the HNB and an initial security gateway (SeGW) according to the DNS response returned by the outer layer DNS; the secure communication link is used for communication between the HNB and the initial secure gateway.

As a background, there is no method for configuring an access device such as an AP in the prior art.
To solve the problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a configuration method for an access device, including: sending a configuration request to a configuration server; and receiving a configuration response sent by the configuration server, wherein the configuration response comprises the configuration information of the access equipment. By the method, the access device (such as an AP and the like) can send a configuration request to the configuration server so that the configuration server returns a configuration response, and the access device acquires the corresponding configuration information thereof to perform configuration.
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a configuration method of an access device according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the configuration method of the access device described in fig. 4 is executed by the access device, and the access device may be an AP or other access devices for deploying a private network, where the method includes:
step S401, sending a configuration request to a configuration server;
step S402, receiving a configuration response sent by the configuration server, where the configuration response includes configuration information of the access device.
The configuration request is a request which is sent to a configuration server by the access equipment and is used for acquiring the configuration information corresponding to the access equipment.
The configuration server, which can be a third party entity (e.g., a 5G AP alliance server), is capable of communicating with the access devices, and is configured to obtain configuration information corresponding to each access device according to a configuration request of each access device, and feed back the obtained configuration information to the corresponding access device through a configuration response. The access device receiving the configuration response may be configured according to the configuration information.
The configuration information sent by the configuration server to the access device may include information for performing initial configuration on the access device, and specifically may include: such as Core Network level parameters (CN level parameters for short), radio access Network level parameters (RAN level parameters), and radio frequency level parameters (RF level parameters). For example, Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) Type (Type), Mobile city (or Country) Code (MCC), Mobile Network Code (MNC), Routing Area Code (RAC), Service Area Code (SAC), and the like. The configuration information may also include security related parameters, such as information including credentials needed to access the network. For example, if the 5G AP needs to connect to the core network device of the mobile communication network, the configuration information further needs to include a certificate trusted by the core network device of the mobile communication network, so that authentication and access control can be completed with the core network device of the mobile communication network. For another example, if the 5G AP needs to connect to a macro station of a core network of the mobile communication network, the configuration information also needs to include a certificate trusted by the macro station of the mobile communication network, so that authentication and access control can be performed with the macro station of the mobile communication network.
Through the method illustrated in fig. 4, an access device (e.g., an AP, etc.) may send a configuration request to a configuration server, so that the configuration server returns a configuration response, and the access device obtains its corresponding configuration information for configuration, thereby providing a scheme for configuring an access device of a private network. Optionally, the method described in fig. 4 may be executed when the access device is powered on (or powered on for the first time) or any access device needs to be initialized, so as to obtain initialization configuration information of the access device and initialize the access device.
In one embodiment, the configuration server includes a first configuration server and a second configuration server, and the sending the configuration request to the configuration server includes: sending a configuration request to a first configuration server; the receiving the configuration response sent by the configuration server includes: receiving a configuration response sent by the first configuration server, where the configuration response includes configuration information of the access device, and the configuration information includes first configuration information acquired by the first configuration server from the second configuration server.
The first configuration server is a server in direct communication with the access device, and may be a trusted entity of a third party (a third party other than the access device and a provider), and when a certain access device needs to be configured, the access device sends a configuration request to the first configuration server.
The second configuration server is a server communicating with the first configuration server, and the second configuration server may be deployed on a network side or a provider side, and may obtain the corresponding configuration-related parameter, that is, the first configuration information, according to the attribute information of the access device. The first configuration information may include all or part of the content of the configuration information in step S402 in fig. 4, and the content of the first configuration information may be referred to the description about the configuration information in fig. 4 and is not described herein again.
Optionally, the attribute of the access device includes an operating mode, network information requesting configuration, location information of the access device, or other configuration information affecting the access device.
The working deployment of the access device may include the following three cases: 1. the Access device is deployed as a public mobile communication network or a private mobile communication network, and is directly connected with a public mobile communication network or a private mobile communication network core network device (such as an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) entity or a User Plane Function (UPF) entity, etc.); 2. the access equipment is deployed as coverage enhancement of a public mobile communication network or a private mobile communication network and is connected with a macro station (Donor gNB) of the public mobile communication network or the private mobile communication network; 3. the access device accesses the internet, for example, the 5G AP integrates the core network function, and independently completes cell deployment and UE access control. According to the three cases, three operation modes can be defined for the access device: in the working mode 1, the access equipment is directly connected with public mobile communication network or private mobile communication network core network equipment; in the working mode 2, the Access device is connected to a public mobile communication Network or a private mobile communication Network Radio Access Network (RAN) device, such as a macro station; and in the working mode 3, the access equipment accesses the Internet.
Taking 5G AP as an access device as an example, please refer to fig. 5 to 7, and fig. 5 to 7 are schematic diagrams of network architectures in working modes 1 to 3, respectively. In the network architecture of the operation mode 1 of fig. 5, a 5G Core network (Core) (5 GC for short) device includes an AMF/UPF entity. The NG-RAN is a 5G access network comprising two nodes, a gNB and a NG-eNB, wherein the gNB provides the nodes of the NR user plane and control plane protocol terminals to the UE and is connected to the 5GC via the NG interface; the NG-eNB provides the UE with nodes for E-UTRA user plane and control plane protocol terminations and is connected to the 5GC via the NG interface. The 5G AP-RAN comprises several APs.
