Description

无线局域网的负载均衡方法及无线接入点 技术领域
本文涉及但不限于通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种无线局域网的负载均衡方法及无线接入点。
背景技术
无线局域网(WLAN,Wireless Local Area Networks)是一种无线数据网络,它以无线的方式构建局域网,利用电磁波在空气中发送和接收数据。无线局域网中包括站点(STA)和无线接入点(AP,Access Point),站点向无线接入点发送探测请求和关联请求,以接入无线接入点。
无线局域网的基础架构分为“胖”AP架构和“瘦”AP架构两种。“胖”AP架构是指传统的无线接入架构,每个AP之间相互独立,各自管理;当多个站点都接入信号较好的同一个AP,而相邻的信号相对较弱的AP基本没有终端接入时,将使得AP之间的负载不均衡,进而影响站点的使用,如当多个站点都接入信号较好的AP1时,每个站点的流量和峰值速率都会下降,而新的站点接入时,由于该AP1的负载过重,会反复拒绝该新站点的接入请求,增加接入时间,而很可能相邻的信号较弱的AP2负荷很轻,且该AP2可以为该新站点提供服务,但是由于各个AP相互独自管理,该AP1无法将该新站点均衡到AP2。“瘦”AP架构是指AP由无线接入控制器(Access Controller,AC)集中管理配置的无线局域网架构,AC集中管理无线局域网中的所有网元,通过该AC对各个AP的负载进行均衡,在该“瘦”AP架构下,需要额外增加AC进行负载均衡,增加成本。

在该步骤中,该当前无线接入点将该新的无线负载与其他能探测到该站点的无线接入点的无线负载进行比较,以确定当前无线接入点能否同意发送关联请求的站点接入,当该新的无线负载小于其他能探测到该站点的无线接入点的无线负载,则认为该当前无线接入点可允许该站点接入;当该新的无线负载大于或等于其他能探测到该站点的无线接入点的无线负载,则认为该当前无线接入点不允许该站点接入,则拒绝该站点接入,可选的,该当前无线接入点向该站点发送关联拒绝响应,该关联拒绝响应可包括向该站点推荐 的无线接入点的基本服务集标识符,该站点接收到该关联拒绝响应后,根据该关联拒绝响应中的基本服务集标识符向对应的无线接入点发送关联请求;该推荐的无线接入点可以为其他能探测到该站点的无线接入点中无线负载最小的无线接入点。

S70、该当前无线接入点判断该请求次数是否小于预设次数阀值;若该请求次数小于预设次数阀值,则执行步骤S20,若该请求次数大于或等于预设次数阈值,执行步骤S80。
在该步骤中,该当前无线接入点将该请求次数与预设次数阀值进行比较,以确定该当前无线接入点能否允许发送关联请求的站点接入;当该请求次数大于或等于预设次数阀值时,意味着该站点请求加入该当前无线接入点的次数已经达到最大值,为了避免对该站点的DOS攻击,该当前无线接入点必须允许该站点的本次关联请求;当该请求次数小于预设次数阀值,则可继续执行步骤S20进行负载均衡,确定该站点能否接入当前无线接入点。
