TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular to a method and apparatus for processing a local access connection. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In order to maintain the competitiveness of the third generation mobile communication system in the communication field, users are provided with faster, less delayed, and more personalized mobile communication services, and at the same time, reduce operating costs of operators, the third generation The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Standards Working Group is working on the Evolved Packet System (EPS). FIG. 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of an evolved packet domain system. As shown in FIG. 1, the entire EPS system is divided into two parts: a radio access network and a core network. In the core network, a Home Subscriber Server (HSS), a Mobility Management Entity (MME), a Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN), and a policy are included. Policy and Charging Rule Function (PCRF), Serving Gateway (S-GW), Packet Data Gateway (PDN Gateway, P-GW for short), and Packet Data Network (Packet Data Network) , referred to as PDN). The functions of each part are described in detail below: The home subscriber server is the permanent storage location of the subscriber subscription data, and is located in the home network to which the subscriber subscribes. The mobility management entity is the location where the user subscription data is stored in the current network, responsible for terminal-to-network non-access layer signaling management, terminal security verification function, terminal mobility management, user idle mode tracking and paging. Management functions and bearer management. Service GPRS support node, is a global mobile communication system (Global System for Mobile)

Communications, referred to as GSM) Enhanced Data Rate for GSM Evolution (EDGE) GSM EDGE Radio Access Network (GERAN) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (referred to as Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) UMTS) UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN) The service support point for users to access the core network, similar in function to the mobility management entity, responsible for user location update, paging management, and bearer management. And other functions. The service gateway is the gateway of the core network to the wireless system, and is responsible for the user plane bearer of the terminal to the core network, the data buffer in the terminal idle mode, the function of initiating the service request by the network side, the lawful interception, and the packet data routing and forwarding. The function gateway is responsible for counting the situation in which the user terminal uses the wireless network, and generates the CDRs of the terminal using the wireless network, and transmits the CDRs to the charging gateway. The packet data gateway is a gateway of the evolved system and the external packet data network of the system. It is connected to the Internet and the packet data network, and is responsible for the Internet Protocol (IP) address allocation, charging function, and packet filtering of the terminal. And functions such as policy control. The packet data network is the operator's IP service network, which provides IP services to users through the operator's core network. The policy charging rule function entity is a server in the evolution system responsible for providing charging control, online credit control, threshold control, and quality of service (QoS) policy aspects. The radio access network is composed of an evolved base station (Evolved NodeB, referred to as e B) and a 3G radio network controller (Radio Network Controllor, RNC for short), which is mainly responsible for receiving and receiving wireless signals and contacting the terminal through the air interface. Manage radio resources, resource scheduling, and access control for the air interface. The service GPRS support node is an upgraded SGSN, which can support the S4 interface with the service gateway, and communicates with the mobility management unit by using GPRS Tunneling Protocol version 2 (GTPv2). For the SGSN supporting the 3G core network, the Packet Switching (PS) domain network architecture is different from that of Figure 1. At this time, the SGSN and the MME are connected by using a Gn interface, and the interworking uses GPRS Tunneling Protocol version 1, hereinafter referred to as GTPvl. The SGSN cannot be connected to the serving gateway. The Gn interface is connected to the Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) to directly access the packet data network. A Home NodeB (HNB for short) or an evolved Home eNodeB (He B) is a small, low-power base station that is deployed as a dedicated resource for some users in a home, group, company, or The use of private places such as schools is mainly to provide users with higher service rates and lower the cost of using high-speed services, while at the same time making up for the shortage of existing distributed cellular wireless communication systems. The advantages of home base stations are affordability, convenience, low power output, plug and play, broadband access, and the use of single mode terminals. The home base station can be directly connected to the core network. As shown in FIG. 2a, the home base station gateway can also access the core network, as shown in FIG. 2b. The main function of the home base station gateway is: verifying the home base station. Security: Handling the registration of the home base station, performing operation and maintenance management on the home base station, configuring and controlling the home base station according to the operator's requirements, and exchanging data of the core network and the home base station. In order to implement local access functions (including Local IP Access (LIPA) or Selective IP Traffic Offload (SIPTO)), that is, the terminal is connected to other IP devices in the home network and in the enterprise network. A local gateway is added to the local access of the IP device or the Internet, as shown in Figure 2a-2c. The addition of the local access gateway can provide strong support for the local access technology. The local gateway can be combined with the wireless side network element or in the vicinity of the wireless side network element (ie, external), or can be combined with the home base station gateway or at home.

Figure 3 shows the data flow path for local access and traditional core network access in a mobile communication network architecture. For users who support local access, traditional core network access data paths and local access data paths can be established at the same time. As shown in FIG. 3, for a locally accessed connection, the local access data path is from the terminal to the wireless side network element to the local access gateway (eg, L-GW, and L-GGSN), and the data transmission does not pass through the core network. In order to achieve local access of the terminal to other IP devices or the Internet of the home network, two connections can be established, and the first local access data path directly accesses the Internet (Internet IP connection, ie SIPTO connection). The second local access data path directly accesses other IP devices on the home network (home network IP connection, ie LIPA connection). The local access function is a way for the home or enterprise to provide access to resources by internal private users. The application is not open to all users on the network, and there is no need to move the user out of the home or enterprise range. To provide such access resources. Therefore, for the user who enables the local access function, the local access service does not need to support the mobility of the entire network, and only provides the mobility of the local mobile range, thereby conforming to the application characteristics of the local access function, and also reducing the network.

Preferred Embodiments FIG. 5 is an interaction flowchart of a method for processing a local access connection according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, the embodiment includes two parts, and a part of the wireless side network element enters a connection state. The user context is generated, and the local access permission list information is retained in the user context, as described in step 5A below. The other part is the mobility management of the local access connection according to the local access permission list information when the wireless side network element initiates the handover to the user, as described in step 5B below. Specifically, the step 5A includes the following three scenarios: the core network mobility management unit sends the local access permission list information to the wireless side network element when the user enters the connection state, and the wireless side network element saves the locally accessed user context in the locally generated user context. . Scenario 1: When a user initiates a NAS (Non-Access Stratum) message, such as an attach, a service request, a PDN connection setup request, etc., the core network mobility management unit is caused to establish the necessary initial user context. Step 5A01: The core network mobility management unit carries the local access permission list information in the initial context setup request message sent to the wireless side network element. The wireless side network element saves it in the locally generated user context until the user enters the idle state. Step 5A02: The radio side network element returns an initial context setup response message. Scenario 2: The core network mobility management unit is transmitting a downlink NAS message (for example, responding to an uplink NAS message or a session management type downlink message). Step 5A03: The core network mobility management unit may carry the local access permission list information when transmitting the downlink NAS message, and the wireless side network element saves the foregoing information in the local context. Scenario 3: The user initiates a handover to the target radio side network element, and the mobility management unit sends the local access permission list information to the target radio side network element for local storage. In step 5A04, the mobility management unit carries the local access permission list information in the handover request message sent to the target radio side network element. After receiving the target wireless side network element, it saves it in the local user context. Step 5A05, the target radio side network element replies to the handover request acknowledgement information. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the S1 handover is taken as an example. For the X2 handover between the radio side network elements, the handover request message carrying the local access permission list information may be directly transmitted between the radio side network elements. Specifically, step 5B includes the following steps: Step 5B01: The source radio side network element selects a target radio side network element suitable for handover according to the measurement report information reported by the user, and determines whether the target radio side network element supports local access according to the local access permission list information in 5A before performing the handover. Business continuity. The specific determination method is as follows: The measurement report information reported by the user includes information such as a CSG identifier, a base station identifier, and an address of the target radio side network element, and the source radio side network element may use the foregoing information to compare with the local access permission list information for determining. If the foregoing information of the target radio side network element is included in the local access permission list information, the source radio side network element determines that the local access connection can be maintained, and otherwise initiates the release. Optionally, the source radio side network element may also perform switching according to the local access permission list information, which preferably supports the continuous access to the radio side network element of the local access service. In step 5B02, if the target radio side network element selected by the source radio side network element does not support the local access service continuous or cannot select the target radio side network element that supports the local access service, the source radio side network element notifies or cooperates with it. The separate offload gateway initiates the release of the local access connection. The notification message is an internal message (the combination of the wireless side network element and the offload gateway) or a newly defined Sxx interface message between the wireless side network element and the divided distribution gateway (the wireless side network element and the distribution gateway are separated). Step 5B03: If the target radio side network element selected by the source radio side network element supports the local access service continuity, the local access connection is not processed, and the normal handover process is performed. Preferred Embodiment 2 FIG. 6 is an interaction flowchart of a method for processing a local access connection according to a preferred embodiment 2 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the method includes the following steps S601 to S605. Step 601: The source radio side network element determines to initiate a handover process for the user according to the measurement report information reported by the user, and optionally performs the target radio side network element selection. Before performing the handover procedure, the source radio side network element discovers that the currently active local access connection is based on the local access bearer information (eg, L-GW TEID information, etc.), and then initiates a local access permission list acquisition message to the mobility management unit. Step 602: The core network mobility management unit sends the local access permission list information to the source radio side network element in the response message. The source radio side network element determines whether to support the local access service continuity according to the information, and optionally the source radio side network element preferably supports the local access service continuous radio side network element to perform handover according to the local access permission list information. Step 603: The radio side network element determines whether to support the local access service connection. The specific determination method is as follows: The measurement report information reported by the user includes information such as a CSG identifier, a base station identifier, and an address of the target radio side network element, and the source radio side network element may use the foregoing information to compare with the local access permission list information for determining. If the foregoing information of the target radio side network element is included in the local access permission list information, the source radio side network element determines that the local access connection can be maintained, and otherwise initiates the release. Step 604: If the target radio side network element selected by the source radio side network element does not support the local access service continuity, the source radio side network element notifies the shunt gateway that is set up or divided to initiate the local access connection release. The notification message is an internal message (the combination of the wireless side network element and the offload gateway) or a newly defined Sxx interface message between the wireless side network element and the branching distribution gateway (the wireless side network element and the offload gateway are separated). Step 605: If the target radio side network element selected by the source radio side network element supports the local access service continuity, the local access connection is not processed, and the normal handover process is performed. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings may be performed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and, although the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, The steps shown or described may be performed in an order different than that herein.
