Description

For LAN access user provides Web TV service method and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to network TV business, relate in particular to the network television system of serving LAN access user.
Background technology
The scale of broadband metropolitan area network has had sizable development at present, has also possessed a considerable amount of access users simultaneously.For operator, how to improve the per capita consuming level that inserts the user, improving profitability is the current problem that needs solution, generally use the user under the situation of single business of networking, press for and find new business growth point, provide by abundant content to attract the user, bandwidth is used fully.In this case, IPTV (Internet Protocol Television, IPTV) becomes the generally good business development direction of each big operator.
IPTV is a kind of broadband cable network that utilizes, and integrates multiple technologies such as the Internet, multimedia, communication, and the brand-new technology of the multiple interactive services that comprises Digital Television is provided to the user.The user can enjoy the IPTV service by the mode of computer or " set-top box+television set ".The class of business that IPTV can provide is a lot, mainly comprises TV class business, communication class business and various value-added services.Specifically, the service of TV class is meant the service relevant with television services, as radio and television, video on demand, personal video recording etc.; The communication class service mainly refers to IP-based speech business, instant messaging service, television short message etc.; Value-added service then is meant TV shopping, interactive advertisement, game on line etc.
In the broadband IP metropolitan area network, realize above-mentioned business, require to support clean culture and multicast simultaneously in the networking of broadband network.Because clean culture is the most basic transmission means of IP network, and relate to the application such as the existing mature technique scheme in IP network such as video request program, game on line of clean culture, be to solve the multicast problem of broadband network so realize the key of IPTV business.
Present broadband access method mainly adopts ADSL (Asymmetrical Digital SubscriberLoop, the ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) loop) access and LAN (Local Area Network, local area network (LAN)) inserts two kinds, wherein LAN inserts and is mainly used in short distance, as a plurality of access user situations are arranged in the building.
In the prior art, serve IPTV system configuration that LAN inserts the user as shown in Figure 1.User's playing device 50 is connected with set-top box 40 as television set, and set-top box 40 is connected to access switch 120, and access switch 120 is connected to BAS Broadband Access Server 10 by convergence switch 130, and BAS Broadband Access Server 10 is connected with the broadband backbone network.
Wherein, BAS Broadband Access Server 10 removes and carries out user's access, finish network access authentication, address assignment, user and insert control of authority, QoS (Quality of Service, service quality) outside the function such as Bandwidth Management, still hang all users' gateway device down, each user's VLAN (Virtual Local AreaNetwork, VLAN) information terminates on this BAS Broadband Access Server 10.
Access switch 120 and convergence switch 130 are Layer 2 switch, and convergence switch 130 only runs up to show effect between BAS Broadband Access Server 10 and access switch 120 and uses.Since the set-top box quantity that BAS Broadband Access Server 10 is supported usually 1,000 or more until tens thousand of, its port number is not enough to connect the required access switch of these set-top box of access, so introduced convergence switch 130 in networking.This network model is the prevailing model that current broadband metropolitan area network is built, and is widely used at numerous operator places.
When the multicast service of above-mentioned network model operation IPTV, because BRAS (Broadband RemoteAccess Server, BAS Broadband Access Server) the set-top box quantity of Zhi Chiing is considerably beyond its replication capacity to the group broadcasting video frequency data, and the downlink bandwidth of BRAS also can't meet the demands, and therefore must hang at BRAS following the management of multicast and carry out in being equipped with.
In the prior art, the management of multicast is carried out in access switch.Move MVR (Multicast VLAN Registration on the access switch, multicast virtual local area network registration) agreement, the multicast message of set-top box all is placed among the special VLAN and handles on all these access switch, like this, being replicated on the access switch of group broadcasting video frequency data carried out.For BRAS, have only a VLAN carrying out multicast on demand on this access switch, can save BRAS preferably to the network bandwidth between the L2 equipment.Correspondingly, the multicast channel control of authority of set-top box is also finished by access switch simultaneously.
Detailed process is as follows: BRAS is handed down to access switch by network management protocol with the multicast channel authority; STB (Set Top Box, set-top box) sends IGMP (Internet GroupManagement Protocol, multicast management protocol) Join/Leave (adding/leave) message to access switch and carries out the channel switching; After access switch is received IGMP Join/Leave message, if this set-top box can be visited the purpose channel in the message in the multicast channel authority, then this set-top box is joined among the corresponding VLAN, duplicate the group broadcasting video frequency transfer of data of this purpose channel and give this set-top box, play by playing device.
For unicast message, convergence switch and access switch only run up to show effect between set-top box and BAS Broadband Access Server and use.
As seen, such scheme has proposed very high requirement to access switch: access switch must be supported the MVR agreement; Access switch must be supported multicast IGMP snooping (multicast listener), to distinguish IGMP Join/Leave message; Access switch must be supported the control to the multicast channel authority.
In fact, the access server of the LAN of operator access network part is more outmoded at present, most VLAN that only support the 802.1Q standard, but do not have above-mentioned every and multicast function associated.In other words, adopt existing scheme to realize the IPTV business, must change the enormous amount access switch, cost is high.Simultaneously, because the set-top box number that access switch is hung down is limited, the distribution control of its multicast channel authority disperses very much, and the access switch that uses of operator comprises the different product of different manufacturers, is difficult to multicast is carried out effective unified management.
