本申请要求于2015年12月28日提交中国专利局、申请号为CN201511006124.1、发明名称为“一种在光接入网中建立虚拟接入节点的方法和设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,特别涉及一种在光接入网中建立虚拟接入节点的方法和设备。
背景技术
图1为光接入网(Optical Access Network,简称OAN)的场景示意图。OAN包括:用户驻地网(Customer Premises Network,简称CPN)、接入网(Access Network)和业务节点功能(Service Node Function)。接入网络包括:光路终结点(Optical Line Termination,简称OLT)、光分配网(Optical Distribution Network,简称ODN)、光网络单元(Optical Network Unit,简称ONU)/光网络终端(Optical Network Terminal,简称ONT)和接入功能(Access Function,简称AF)。AF主要是提供ONU/ONT接口与用户网络侧接口(User Networks Interface,简称UNI)的相互转换。如果AF内置在ONU中,则图1中的接入网络可省略用(a)标识的参考点。如果AF位于OLT与业务节点接口(Service Node Interface,简称SNI)间,则AF可用于OLT接口和SNI的相互转换。图1中的T为UNI接口的参考点,V为SNI接口的参考点。OLT为ODN提供网络接口。
如图1所示,用户端设备(Customer Premises Equipment,简称CPE)通过UNI接口连接到AF,如数字用户线(Digital Subscriber Line,简称DSL)。AF对接收到的第一报文进行格式转换,得到第二报文,其中,第一报文采用UNI接口格式封装,第二报文采用能与ONU通信的(a)接口格式封装,如 以太网(Ethernet,简称ETH)链路。ONU对第二报文进行格式转换,得到第三报文,其中,第三报文采用能在ODN上传送的格式封装,如以太网无源光网络(Ethernet Passive Optical Network,简称EPON)的封装或无源光综合接入标准GPON(Gigabit-Capable PON)的通用组帧的封装。OLT对第三报文基尼险那个格式转换,得到第四报文,第四报文采用SNI接口格式封装,如Ethernet链路,将第四报文发送给SNF。
目前,如果基础设施运营商(Infrustracture Provider,简称InP)开放其接入网,将接入网批发给虚拟网络运营商(Virtual Network Operator,简称VNO),则InP接入网络中的物理接入节点(Access Node,简称AN)无法满足用户设备在VNO网络中的业务需求。

本发明实施例中,第一网络中的接入设备在接收到用户设备的第一消息后,能够自动建立物理线路对应的虚拟线路、以及该虚拟线路对应的虚拟AN,使得用户设备与虚拟运营商网络之间的通信,可以通过虚拟AN及其对应的虚拟线路来实现。由于虚拟AN可以支持不同的协议,并且可以根据用户设备的业务需要动态灵活的配置虚拟AN。当用户设备所需业务发生变化时,仅需要更新或升级虚拟AN的虚拟线路和网络功能即可满足业务需求,调整时间短、运维成本低。
本发明实施例中,在第二网络开始建网时可以不部署虚拟AN的虚拟线路和网络功能(Network Function,简称NF),仅当用户上线并需要通过虚拟线路和虚拟AN接入该第二网络时,再实时部署相应的网络功能,从而有效保护了第二网络的建网投资不浪费。本发明实施例中由第一网络中的接入设备建立虚拟线路和虚拟AN的自动建立,第二网络无需知道虚拟线路和虚拟AN的建立过程,而直接运营,降低了第二网络的运维成本。另外,由于虚拟运营商是以虚拟AN为单位进行管理和控制,而不再直接对物理AN进行管理维护,所以极大降低了运维成本。
本实施例中的第一接入设备可以是第一网络中的物理AN,也可以是由第一网络中的物理AN的控制面分离形成的第一控制器。
