Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a policy verification method, applied to a policy verification platform, where the method includes:
step 11, receiving a policy generated by a policy control function PCF;
step 12, verifying the strategy according to a verification method corresponding to a preset construction type of a strategy verification platform to obtain a verification result;
and step 13, sending the verification result to the PCF.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the policy generated by the PCF is verified by the policy verification platform according to the verification method corresponding to the preset construction type of the policy verification platform, so that a verification result is obtained; sending the verification result to the PCF; therefore, real-time simulation deduction of the policy generated by the PCF is realized, the feasibility of the policy generated by the PCF is improved, and the efficiency of network operation is improved.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, step 11 may include:
receiving a first message sent by a Policy Control Function (PCF) through a P1 interface, wherein the first message carries a policy generated by the PCF, and the first message comprises at least one field as follows: policy configuration form, different kinds of characterization of policies, expression form of policies.
In the embodiment, interaction between the PCF and the policy verification platform is realized by adding the P1 interface, and the P1 interface more rapidly transmits the generated policy to the policy verification platform on one hand and receives the simulation deduction result of the policy verification platform on the other hand in real time. The interface output message includes: the method can be in a policy configuration form, and can also be in mathematical forms of different characterization and abstraction of policies. Here, the policy configuration form may be, for example: application and traffic data flow detection, gating, qoS (quality of service), flow based charging, flow control, usage monitoring control, access network information reporting and configuration of policies for RAN (radio access network) support information. Different types of characterization of policies include, but are not limited to: information obtained from AF (access function), such as session, media and subscription related information, UDR (unified data repository function); information obtained from the AMF, such as UE-related and access-related information; information obtained from the SMF; information obtained from NWDAF (network intelligent analysis function); information obtained from NEF (network open function); information obtained from CHF (billing function); policy context preconfigured by PCF, etc.; the abstract mathematical form can be a data expression form of the strategy, and the corresponding expression can be selected to be expressed according to the specific strategy. The interface can be adapted to the policy format of the policy real-time verification requirement, so that the PCF policy can be verified on diversified network elements, platforms or other functional bodies with real-time verification. Such outgoing messages are more generalizable and more adaptable.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, step 13 may include:
sending a second message to the PCF via a P2 interface, the second message carrying the verification result, the second message including at least one of the following fields: marking whether the strategy is feasible or not, and reason information for the infeasibility of the strategy. Here, the flag of whether the policy is feasible is such as a flag character as 1 or 0, but is not limited to these flag characters, and is used to indicate whether the policy is feasible after verification; the reason information of the policy infeasibility is used to indicate what the reason why the policy infeasibility is if the policy infeasibility is after the policy is verified, so that the PCF can adjust the corresponding policy according to the flag and the reason information of the corresponding policy infeasibility.
In this embodiment, by adding a P2 interface, on one hand, in order to receive the PCF transmission message, on the other hand, in order to quickly transmit the policy feasibility conclusion after the simulation deduction to the PCF. The P2 interface output message includes:
Figure BDA0003394601250000051
in an optional embodiment of the present invention, the policy verification platform may be constructed according to a construction type including at least one of:
constructing a knowledge graph;
adopting a mode of interaction between upper layer logic and physical network of preset simulation software to construct;
and constructing by adopting an intelligent arrangement mode.
In this embodiment, when the policy verification platform is constructed, there may be various methods, such as a construction method based on OWL (Web Ontology Language) language and a knowledge graph, a construction method based on interaction between upper logic and physical networks of NS3 simulation software, a construction method based on intelligent arrangement, etc., but because of differences between construction languages and network configuration languages, in order for the policy verification platform to correctly identify and execute policies, PCF policies need to be automatically converted and resolved, and the PCF policies are converted into forms that can be simulated, verified and deduced by the policy verification platform.
In an optional embodiment of the present invention, when the policy verification platform uses knowledge graph construction, step 12 may include:
step 121, extracting key features from the strategy to obtain key features;
step 122, generating an N-tuple according to the preset format of the preset programming language by the key features, wherein N is a positive integer;
and step 123, performing conflict verification and/or consistency detection processing on the strategy represented by the N-tuple according to the verification rule of the knowledge graph to obtain a verification result.
In this embodiment, if the policy verification platform is constructed by adopting OWL (Web Ontology Language) language, the policy generated by PCF is converted into OWL language expression form, that is, the key information is extracted, and the N-tuple, that is, < individual, class, attribute, relationship, function, rule, constraint, axiom, event > and the like are used for characterization. And the knowledge graph is adopted to verify the strategy of the N-tuple, the knowledge graph can automatically identify the configuration file, the information of the configuration file is extracted, and the principles of conflict detection, consistency detection and the like of the knowledge graph are utilized to verify the strategy. For example: if A < B, B < C, C < A occur in PCF policy simulation, then conflict with A < B and B < C= > A < C, then the policy is unreasonable.
In addition, if the policy generated by PCF is a dispatch path, characterized by the relationship in N-tuple, then it is < attribute: nodes a, b, c, d, f have forwarding capability, relationship: a- > b- > c- > d- > f, constraint: c| - > b & f| - > a, but the relational characterization of the nodes a, b, c, d, f of the constructed knowledge-graph is: c- > a- > d- > f- > b, and according to consistency detection, the triplet information of the PCF scheduling path and the characterization information in the knowledge graph are inconsistent, so that the policy generated by the PCF can be judged to be infeasible.
In an optional embodiment of the present invention, when the policy verification platform is constructed by adopting a mode of interaction between upper layer logic and physical network of preset simulation software, step 12 may include:
step 124, converting the strategy into a target configuration file according to the configuration file requirement of the preset simulation software;
and step 125, performing simulation verification on the target configuration file in a simulation environment of the preset simulation software to obtain a verification result.
In this embodiment, if the policy verification platform is constructed by adopting NS3 simulation software upper layer logic and physical network interaction: the policy generated by the PCF is converted into a configuration file consistent with the NS3 simulation software, the converted configuration information is simulated and verified in the NS3 simulation environment, and the simulation result is checked in the simulation software. In one example, the policy generated by the PCF is a billing policy, and the CDR (call detail record) is generated based on billing data in the billing event; CDF generates a CDR by a charging message; a single charging event may generate one CDR, namely: the relationship of events and CDRs is a 1:1 relationship; one CDR may be generated in multiple events, namely: the relation between the event and the CDR is that of N:1, but the final implementation adopts a 1:1 corresponding relation; each charging event exists in only one CDR, namely: there is no 1:N relationship (N > 1) between event and CDR; the relation between CDR and charging event is converted into a target file which can be identified by an application layer of NS3 simulation software, the target file realizes the downward transmission of data packets by utilizing socket-like programming, the data packets are downward transmitted to network equipment through a protocol stack (TCP/IP), the network equipment comprises a MAC layer and a physical layer protocol, thus the data packets flow like a real network, data frames are converted into binary streams, and finally, the binary streams become signals to be transmitted to a destination node through a medium channel.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, when the policy verification platform is constructed in an intelligent orchestration manner, step 12 may include:
step 126, converting the strategy into a target expression;
step 127, calculating the target expression in a twin body constructed in an intelligent arrangement mode to obtain a calculation result;
and 128, verifying the calculation result according to a second preset judgment rule to obtain a verification result.
In this embodiment, if the policy verification platform adopts the method of construction based on intelligent orchestration: then the policy generated by the PCF is converted into a matrixThe mathematical expression of quantity, tuple and so on is calculated in the constructed digital twin body, and the feasibility of the result is judged. For example: node a to node B can be mathematically characterized as a vector form:

node B to node C can be mathematically characterized as a vector form: />

Judging whether the route from node A to node C is reachable or not, the data expression +.>
Figure BDA0003394601250000073
And (5) judging. In one example, the policy generated by the PCF is a policy for transmission rate adjustment of quality of service QoS, which is transmitted at a target transmission rate, which is converted into a vector->

The vector +.>

And (5) putting the target transmission rate into a digital twin body for calculation to obtain a verification result of whether the target transmission rate is feasible or not.
The following describes a specific implementation of the above method in conjunction with a specific implementation flow, as shown in fig. 2:
step 21, PCF generates a strategy;
step 22, sending the strategy to a strategy verification platform;
step 23, the policy verification platform converts and analyzes the PCF policy, and performs reasoning, simulation and verification on the platform according to the converted information and the real-time data drive of the physical network;
step 24, if the policy is viable, send a "Y" field to the PCF;
step 25, the PCF issues the strategy to the session management function SMF/mobility management function AMF;
step 26, if the policy is not feasible, transmitting a field "N" and carrying the reason of the infeasibility;
step 27, PCF receives the information and then carries out strategy optimization adjustment;
step 28, then sending the regulated strategy to a strategy verification platform again for simulation deduction, and repeating the steps 22 and 23 until the strategy is feasible;
step 29, executing step 24 and step 25;
in step 23, to implement conversion and analysis of PCF policy, and perform reasoning, simulation, and verification on the platform according to the converted information and real-time data driving of the physical network, the policy verification platform needs to have the following three functions: the platform should interact with the physical network in real time, and virtual-real mapping is performed. The platform has the capability of simulating and deducting the strategy issued in the physical network, and the feasibility of the strategy is verified based on the real-time data synchronized to the verification platform. The platform can automatically convert and analyze the PCF strategy, and convert the PCF strategy into a form which can be simulated, verified and deduced by the strategy verification platform.
As shown in fig. 3, a specific implementation example is described in detail by taking QoS adjustment perceived based on service experience as an example, and the specific flow is as follows:
step 31, nwdaf (network data analysis function) collects user radio performance KPIs (such as reference signal received power RSRP, reference signal received quality RSRQ) from gNB/OMC (operation maintenance center), collects user traffic performance KPIs (such as rate, time delay, etc.) from UPF (user plane function), and collects interactive traffic MoS (maintenance operation subsystem) from AF (application function).
Step 32, based on the data collected in step 31, NWDAF builds a machine learning/deep learning model to perform business awareness.
And step 33, sending the sensing result to the policy control function PCF.
Step 34, the pcf generates a QoS adjustment policy according to the perceived result of the NWDAF and the network condition.
Step 35, the pcf issues the generated QoS adjustment policy to the policy verification platform via the P1 interface.
Step 36, the policy verification platform receives the PCF message through the P2 interface, converts and analyzes the PCF policy, and performs reasoning, simulation and verification on the platform according to the converted information and combining with the real-time data drive of the physical network, thereby judging whether the policy is feasible.
Step 37, if the policy is viable, the policy verification platform sends a message "Y" to the PCF over the P2 interface.
In step 38, the pcf triggers the SMF (session management function) to make QoS adjustments according to the generated policy.
Step 39, the smf informs the UPF (user plane function) of QoS adjustment.
Step 40, if the policy verification platform verifies that the policy is not viable, the policy verification platform sends a message "n+infeasible reason" to the PCF via the P2 interface.
Step 41, the pcf again optimizes and adjusts the QoS policy based on the infeasible reasons.
Step 42, then repeat steps 35 and 36 until the policy is viable, and then execute steps 37, 38, 39.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the policy generated by the PCF is simulated and deduced in real time through the policy verification platform, so that the negative influence on the network caused by improper policy issuing is solved, the policy generated by the PCF is verified in real time, and the policy generated by the PCF is regulated in real time, so that the actual requirement of the network is met.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a strategy adjusting method which is applied to the PCF, and comprises the following steps:

and adjusting the strategy according to the verification result to obtain an adjusted strategy.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the method for adjusting a policy further includes: and interacting with network elements of the core network according to the adjusted strategy.
In an optional embodiment of the present invention, receiving a verification result fed back by the policy verification platform after performing verification processing on the policy may include:
receiving a second message sent by the policy verification platform through a P2 interface, wherein the second message carries the verification result, and the second message comprises at least one field as follows: marking whether the strategy is feasible or not and reason information for infeasibility of the strategy;
here, the flag of whether the policy is viable is such as a flag character as 1 or 0, but is not limited to these flag characters, and is used to indicate whether the policy is viable after verification; the reason information of the policy infeasibility is used to indicate what the reason why the policy infeasibility is if the policy infeasibility is after the policy is verified, so that the PCF can adjust the corresponding policy according to the flag and the reason information of the corresponding policy infeasibility.
In one possible example, if a policy is viable, e.g., a flag of 1, indicates that the policy is viable, and therefore, the policy may not be adjusted; otherwise, when the mark of whether the strategy is feasible or not is 0, the strategy is not feasible, and strategy adjustment is needed;
when the policy adjustment is needed, the field information of the reason information of the infeasibility of the policy can be further read, and the corresponding policy adjustment is carried out according to the reason information of the infeasibility of the policy. Thus, the negative influence on the network caused by improper strategy can be well solved.
It should be noted that, the method is a PCF-side method corresponding to the policy verification platform-side method, and all implementation manners in the method embodiment are applicable to the method embodiment, so that the same technical effects can be achieved.
