Description

Method for solving influence of SCTP multi-destination address on N2 port signaling synthesis
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of communication, in particular to a method for solving the influence of SCTP multi-destination addresses on N2 port signaling synthesis.
Background
With the development of the mobile communication network, the user has higher perceived experience requirements on the service of the mobile network, so that an operator is required to build a mobile network signaling acquisition system (DPI signaling acquisition system) and a signaling analysis platform, collect and analyze mobile signaling, finely analyze and evaluate network quality and measure perceived experience of the user on the network; thereby guiding the efficient network construction and optimization and improving the service level of the network to the user. Meanwhile, the signaling collection and analysis are the foundation stones for communicating big data, and particularly play a role in epidemic prevention and other fields.
The DPI signaling acquisition system carries out bypass light splitting on related network interface links, carries out real-time analysis on data in the links and generates signaling details, and mainly acquires interfaces of 2G A ports, 3G Iu-CS, iu-PS,4G S1-MME, S6a, gx,5G N2 and the like, wherein the interface transmission layers all adopt SCTP protocols. SCTP is a protocol that transports multiple data streams simultaneously between the two ends of a network connection, provides services similar to UDP and TCP, provides coupling (association) between clients and servers, and provides reliability, sequencing, flow control, and full duplex data transport to applications like TCP, unlike TCP connections which involve only communication between two IP addresses, SCTP supports multihoming, a single SCTP endpoint can support multiple IP addresses, an endpoint may have multiple redundant connections, and each network may have a connection to access the internet infrastructure individually.
When the DPI signaling acquisition system is deployed on line, the mobile signaling network is formally on line and bears the service, so that the data message established by SCTP coupling is difficult to capture, and a flow table like a TCP five-tuple cannot be established, because the conditions of NGAP Xn switching, N2 switching and the like are considered, when the signaling is synthesized, a network element IP address and a unique identifier in the network element are used as associated key values, and because the SCTP coupling multihoming address exists on N2 interface signaling, the associated key values in one direction cannot be associated in the other direction, and the association failure or error can be caused under the condition that the SCTP coupling multihoming address exists on N2 interface signaling, particularly under the condition that NGAP Xn switching and N2 switching are performed.
The method for solving the association failure or error in the presence of SCTP coupling multi-destination address to N2 interface signaling generally comprises the following steps: (1) Learning the coupled multi-destination address of SCTP, namely identifying and correlating SCTP coupled multi-destination address to N2 interface signaling by the inconsistency of the destination IP address of the uplink message and the source IP address of the downlink message in the signaling flow; the method has the defects that the association learning flow is increased, so that the complexity of signaling association is increased, and when the network element of an operator is transited, if the processing cannot be carried out in real time, the signaling association error is inevitably caused; 2) The network element address information is provided by an operator to identify the N2 interface signaling by the SCTP coupling multihoming address to solve the influence of the SCTP coupling multihoming address to the N2 interface signaling on the signaling synthesis, but the method requires that the DPI signaling acquisition system and the operator are synchronous in real time, when the network element changes, the operator provides related information and synchronously configures the related information in the DPI signaling acquisition system, which increases the system inevitably in maintenance and also can lose data inevitably.
Therefore, how to solve the influence of the SCTP coupling multihoming address on N2 interface signaling synthesis becomes the key problem of current research under the condition that the network element SCTP coupling multihoming address is not learned and the network element address information is not acquired from an operator.

Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
1. The prior related technology comprises the following steps:
the influence of SCTP coupling multihoming address on N2 interface signaling synthesis in the prior art is specifically explained; at present, the influence of SCTP coupling multi-destination address on N2 interface signaling synthesis is mainly expressed in Xn switching, NGAP context release and N2 switching processes, and the specific contents are as follows:
1.1, the related technology of the existing Xn switching signaling flow:
referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an Xn switching signaling flow when SCTP coupled multi-destination addresses exist on the AMF side; the RAN initiates a registration request to an AMF IP address 1.1.1.2 by an IP address 1.1.1.1, the AMF side is an SCTP multi-destination address, and the AMF initiates an authentication flow to the RAN by an IP address 1.1.1.3. The mapping relation table of the RAN side association key value and the NGAP context is called as a RAN_NGAP_CORR table, and the mapping relation table of the AMF side association key value and the RAN side association key value is called as an AMF_NGAP_CORR table.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of an Xn switching association flow when SCTP coupled multi-homed addresses exist on the AMF side, and the specific association flow is as follows:
(1) When the uplink direction receives the first signaling message as an InitialUEMessage, a RAN-UE-NGAP-ID and a source IP address, namely a RAN address, are used for constructing a RAN-side association key value, and a mapping relation between the RAN-side association key value and an NGAP context is created, namely, the RAN-side association key value is used as a key value, and the NGAP context content is used as a value and is inserted into a RAN_NGAP_CORR table.
(2) When the downlink direction receives the first signaling message, a RAN side association key value is constructed by using a target IP address, namely a RAN IP address and a RAN-UE-NGAP-ID, and the RAN side association key value is used for inquiring a RAN_NGAP_CORR table to obtain an NGAP context. And constructing an AMF side association key value by using a source IP address, namely an AMF address and an AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, and creating a mapping relation between the AMF side association key value and the RAN side association key value, namely inserting the AMF side association key value as a key value into an AMF_NGAP_CORR table by taking the RAN side association key value as a value, so that the association key value of the RAN side can be obtained by inquiring the AMF_NGAP_CORR table, and then obtaining the NGAP context by inquiring the RAN_NGAP_CORR table by the association key value of the RAN side.
(3) When the uplink direction receives the non-PathSwitchRequest and the UEContextREaseCompelette message, a source IP address, namely a RAN IP address, and a RAN-UE-NGAP-ID are used for constructing a RAN side association key value, and the RAN side association key value is used for inquiring a RAN_NGAP_CORR table to obtain the NGAP context.
(4) When the uplink direction receives the PathSwitchRequest message, a source IP address, namely a RAN address, is used for constructing a RAN side association key value with the RAN-UE-NGAP-ID, and a mapping relation between the RAN side association key value and the NGAP context is created, namely, the RAN side association key value is used as the key value, and the NGAP context content is used as the value to be inserted into a RAN_NGAP_CORR table. And constructing an association key value by using the destination IP, namely the AMF SCTP coupling multihoming IP address and the Source-AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, inquiring an AMF_NGAP_CORR table by using the association key value, and if the SCTP coupling multihoming address exists on the AMF side, because the association key value in the mapping relation between the AMF side association key value and the NGAP context, which is created in the first downlink message before switching, is constructed by the Source IP address and the AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, at the moment, the NGAP context before switching cannot be inquired by constructing the association key value by using the destination IP, namely the AMF SCTP coupling multihoming IP address and the Source-AMF-UE-NGAP-ID.
The AMF_NGAP_CORR table before the switch shown in FIG. 1 uses the IP2 address of the AMF, and the destination IP address of the PathSwitchRequest message is IP1, so that the query fails when the AMF_NGAP_CORR table is queried. Therefore, under the condition that multi-destination addresses exist in the SCTP coupling, the SCTP coupling multi-destination addresses of the AMF network elements can be identified, and the prior art mainly uses network element address information provided by operators to identify that different IP addresses are the multi-destination addresses of the SCTP coupling or uses signaling flow association to learn the association relation of the SCTP coupling multi-destination addresses of the same network element and different IP addresses. Under the condition that the association relation of network element SCTP coupling multihoming addresses is obtained, under the condition that the SCTP coupling multihoming addresses exist, one IP address is associated to the other IP address, an AMF side association key value is constructed through the associated IP address and Source-AMF-UE-NGAP-ID to inquire an AMF_NGAP_CORR table, and then the inquired RAN_NGAP_CORR table is inquired through the inquired RAN side association key value before switching, so that the NGAP context before switching can be inquired.
1.2, the related technology of the existing NGAP context release signaling flow:
referring to fig. 3 and fig. 4, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a context release signaling flow of NGAP in the case that SCTP association multi-destination addresses exist on the AMF side; fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a context release association procedure of NGAP in the case that SCTP association multi-destination addresses exist on the AMF side; when receiving the UEContextREACeCompelette message, a RAN side association key value is constructed by using a source IP address, namely a RAN address, and a RAN-UE-NGAP-ID, and the mapping relation between the RAN side association key value and the NGAP context is deleted from a RAN_NGAP_CORR table by using the RAN side association key value. Because of the existence of the SCTP-coupled multihoming address on the AMF side, at this time, the destination IP address is not an IP address used by the mapping relationship between the AMF-side association key value and the RAN-side association key value created in the first piece of downlink information, at this time, the association relationship between the SCTP-coupled multihoming address obtained in the above step needs to be used, the IP address used in the downlink direction is associated by the destination IP address of the uecontextreeasecomplete message, the AMF-side association key value is constructed by the associated IP address and the AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, and the mapping relationship between the AMF-side association key value and the RAN-side association key value is deleted from the amf_ngap_corr table by using the AMF-side association key value.
1.3, the related technology of the existing N2 switching signaling flow:
referring to fig. 5 and fig. 6, fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of an N2 handover signaling flow in the case that an SCTP association multi-destination address exists on the AMF side; FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a N2 handover association procedure in the case where there is an SCTP coupling multi-destination address on the AMF side; the specific association flow is as follows:
(1) When the hand-in side downlink direction receives the Handoverrequest message, an AMF side association key value is constructed by using a source IP address, namely an AMF IP address and an AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, and a mapping relation between the AMF side association key value and the NGAP context is created, namely the AMF side association key value is used as a key value, the NGAP context content is used as a value, and the mapping relation is inserted into a N2_HO_CORR table.
(2) When the hand-in side uplink receives the HandoverRequestAcknowledges message, a RAN-UE-NGAP-ID and a source IP address, namely a RAN address, are used for constructing a RAN-side association key value, and a mapping relation between the RAN-side association key value and an NGAP context is created, namely, the RAN-side association key value is used as a key value, and the NGAP context content is used as a value to be inserted into a RAN_NGAP_CORR table. Because the SCTP coupling multihoming address of the AMF side exists, when the source destination address is not the IP address used by the mapping relation between the AMF side association key value and the NGAP context created when the handlerequest message is processed, the SCTP coupling multihoming address of the AMF network element can be identified under the condition that the multihoming address exists in the SCTP coupling, and the prior art mainly identifies the multihoming address of the SCTP coupling with different IP addresses through network element address information provided by an operator or learns the association relation of the SCTP coupling multihoming address with different IP addresses of the same network element through signaling flow association. Through the obtained association relation of SCTP coupling multi-destination addresses, the IP address used in the downlink direction is associated through the destination IP address of the HandoverRequestAcknowledges message, through the associated IP address and AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, an AMF side association key value is constructed, and the NGAP context of the HandoverRequest message can be obtained by using the AMF side association key value to query the N2_HO_CORR table.

Because of the existence of the SCTP-coupled multihoming address on the AMF side, at this time, the destination IP address is not an IP address used by the mapping relationship between the AMF-side association key value and the RAN-side association key value created in the first piece of downlink information, at this time, the association relationship between the SCTP-coupled multihoming address obtained in the above step needs to be used, the IP address used in the downlink direction is associated by the destination IP address of the uecontextreeasecomplete message, the AMF-side association key value is constructed by the associated IP address and the AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, and the mapping relationship between the AMF-side association key value and the RAN-side association key value is deleted from the amf_ngap_corr table by using the AMF-side association key value.
