Definitions

  • the multiplexer devices In current communication networks, in particular subscriber access networks - also referred to as access networks - several subscribers or subscribers associated communication devices via multiplexer devices - also known as DSLAM or Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer - connected to a higher-level communication network - also known as the backbone.
  • the task of the multiplexer devices is to forward information from all participants to the backbone network and to provide information from the backbone network directly to the individual subscribers.
  • the multiplexer device In order to avoid an unnecessary overload of the capacity of the respective data transmission paths and thus a blockade of the communication device, the multiplexer device is designed so that in the upstream direction, ie. H. from the individual communication devices in the direction of the higher-level communication network, all information to be transmitted is forwarded in the downstream direction, i. H. from the superordinate network in the direction of the individual communication devices, but only information that is addressed directly to the individual subscribers to be forwarded. This means that transmitted in the parent communication network broadcast information is not transmitted from the respective multiplexer device
  • such an access network consists of 4096 subscribers which, for example, transmit a resource request at the same time with the data rate x bit / s to the superordinate communication network, a transmission load of 4096 * x bit / s arises in the upstream direction. If, on the part of the superordinate communication network, each subscriber with a corresponding corresponding broadcasting cast message at the same rate x bit / s sends a response, for example, creates a transmission load in the downstream direction of 4096 * 4096 * x bit / s. This leads in no time to an overload of the multiplexer.
  • the DHCP protocol (RFC 2131) is a typical application for assigning subscribers, inter alia, an address designed according to the Internet protocol - also referred to below as an IP address - by means of which the respective subscribers are entitled to access information on the Internet Exchange context of a communication relationship.
  • IP addresses are maintained in a pooled DHCP server and assigned to a participant establishing a communication relationship only when required. Since it is relatively unlikely that all participants will be active at the same time (especially as part of an online service), the pool of IP addresses held in the pool may be less than the total number of potential users.
  • this communication device Since the communication device assigned to the respective subscriber (also referred to as host) has not yet assigned an IP address when switching on, ie at the beginning of establishing a communication relationship, this communication device uses a DHCP discovery command to send out a corresponding request or message by broadcasting - Process or broadcast sent to active DHCP server. To identify the requesting communication device, the respective MAC address is inserted in the sent request messages. In response, all active DHCP servers that still have freely assignable IP addresses in the pool send out a corresponding response or return message (DHCP-OFFER) by means of broadcast in the direction of the requesting communication device. The requesting communication device or host selects an offer (DHCPREQUEST) and in turn makes this known to all DHCP servers via broadcast. The selected DHCP server confirms by sending the communication device shared IP address (DHCPACK) - then all other DHCP servers withdraw their offer.
  • DHCPREQUEST an offer
  • the requesting communication device or host can also be sent further data relevant to the network access, eg., the subnet mask, the domain name server addresses, and the default gateway.
  • DHCP client Within the framework of the DHCP protocol, which is to assign an IP address to the subscribers or to the communication devices assigned to them, there are two possibilities, such as responses or return messages of the DHCP server, which assigns the IP addresses, to the requesting communication device (DHCP client).
  • the answer On the one hand, the answer is addressed directly to the respective subscriber or communication device or, on the other hand, the answer is sent back as a broadcast.
  • forwarding directly addressed return messages is not a problem.
  • a direct addressed to a participant answer (unicast) is forwarded by the multiplexer (DSLAM) directly to the respective addressed, connected participants, so that this participant with the assigned IP address for the network is authorized access - d. H.
  • DSLAM multiplexer
  • the technical problem arises that the multiplexer devices which can not forward messages transmitted in the context of a broadcast transmission method or broadcast to all communication devices connected to a multiplexer, since otherwise the risk of overloading exists.
  • the incoming broadcasting at a multiplexer broadcast messages are discarded, ie the respective subscriber is not assigned an IP address.
  • DHCP responses in which the sent in the context of a broadcast return messages (DHCP responses) are present, especially when in a network behind the multiplexer ie the immediately following superordinate communication network additional network elements are arranged, which have no information or overview of the structure of the multiplexer network or subscriber access network and therefore basically forward DHCP responses as a broadcast to ensure that all in Subscriber access network arranged participants or communication devices receive these answers or feedback.
  • the transmission of the broadcast DHCP responses can alternatively also be avoided by implementing DHCP relays in the individual multiplexer devices in accordance with RFC 3046.
  • DHCP relays communicate directly with the individual DHCP servers and have a database with the respectively required subscriber information.
  • the configuration of DHCP relays is associated with a high technical and economic effort, which is not desirable by many network operators.
  • the invention is thus based on the object of further improving the establishment of communication relationships in subscriber access networks, in particular the allocation of IP addresses in the context of the DHCP protocol, in particular while avoiding the previously used PPPoE protocol.
  • the object is achieved on the basis of the features of the preamble of patent claim 1 by its characterizing features.
  • the essential aspect of the method according to the invention is that the information representing the communication-relationship-initiating communication device is stored in the communication network and that the feedback transmitted by means of the broadcast transmission method is detected and target information contained in the detected return-message is compared with the stored information , Upon detection of at least partial coincidence of the information being compared, the feedback is relayed to the initiating communication device represented by the matching information.
  • the essential advantage of the method according to the invention is that it is possible to dispense with the inflexible PPPoE access protocol for the establishment of communication relationships, ie for the allocation of IP addresses, and that the more flexible DHCP protocol can be used.
  • Advantageously occurring overloads of multiplexer devices (DSLAMs) are avoided in the context of the DHCP protocol in that broadcast information is purposefully and intelligently converted into unicast traffic. This makes it possible to make Internet protocols such as DHCP and ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) available in an adequate manner and without configuration effort for the network operators.

  • FIG. 1 shows in a block diagram a connection scenario arranged in a subscriber access network for carrying out the method according to the invention
  • FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a plurality of subscribers or associated communication devices KE 1 .. n arranged in a subscriber access network ACCESS, which call via respective connection lines to corresponding connection units AE 1 .. n of a multiplexer MUX - also called DSLAM ( Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) - are connected.
  • the multipurpose device MUX is connected via a further connection device AA or uplink to a superordinate communication network OKN configured according to the Internet protocol.
  • a DHCP server Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
  • a control device CONT controlling the implementation of the method according to the invention is arranged, to which memory means MEM are assigned.

  • the DHCP-OFFER message is forwarded by the multiplexer MUX as a unicast only to the subscribers stored in the memory MEM-here KE1-so that flooding or overloading of the multiplexer MUX with broadcast messages is prevented.
  • the communication device KEl can check whether an IP address should be requested from this DHCP server. If required, a DHCP REQUEST message is subsequently sent to this DHCP server - see FIG. 4.
  • This DHCP REQUEST message is detected by the control device CONT arranged in the multiplexer MUX and corresponding information in the context of the method according to the invention Broadcast flag in the DHCP data field - set in the message. This ensures that all responses from the DHCP server are also sent back in the form of a broadcast. In this way it is achieved that the answers of the DHCP server not directly to the respective requesting participants KEl ... n but in the broadcast again the way back via the multiplexer MUX are transmitted.
  • the DHCP ACK message is evaluated in the same manner as the previously received DHCP OFFER messages: detecting the subscriber sender address (chaddr) contained in the message and comparing it with the subscriber addresses MAC stored in the memory MEM and forwarding the DHCP ACK message to the corresponding one Port index (vcxlndex) when determining a match.
