背景技术
目前,企业可以通过通信网络技术部署非公众网络(Non-Public Network,NPN),用于本企业等内部业务或专用于企业中的员工。非公众网络区别于运营商向公众用户提供的公共网络服务。由于NPN的部署范围较小,业务也可能是专属的,因此,终端能接入的NPN数量众多。一般来说,终端接入一个网络需要具有能够通过所述网络的认证的证书。为终端所有能接入的NPN都配置证书,会是一个繁杂的工作。另外,NPN可能无法向运营商一样预先为终端配置全球用户识别卡(Universal Subscriber Identity Module,USIM)并在所述USIM中保存用于接入网络证书。因此,如何有效实现对终端的证书配置和网络接入控制,是目前亟待解决的技术问题。

在本发明一种实施例中,非公网是非公众网络的简称。非公众网络可以称为以下之一:非公众通信网络。非公网可以包括以下至少一种部署方式:物理的非公网、虚拟的非公网、实现在公网上的非公网。一种实施方式中,非公网为非独立组网(Public Network Integrated,PNI)的NPN,通过在运营商 PLMN(Public Land Mobile Network)网络中支持封闭访问组(Closed Access Group,CAG)。一个CAG可以由一组终端组成。另一种实施方式中,非公网为独立组网的NPN(简称为SNPN)。SNPN的网络标识可以由PLMN ID和NID构成。
在本发明一种实施例中,非公网服务是非公众网络服务的简称。非公众网络服务也可以称为以下之一:非公众网络的网络服务、非公众通信服务、非公众网络通信服务、非公网的网络服务或其他命名。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中对于命名方式不做具体限定。一种实施方式中,非公网为封闭访问组,此时,非公网服务为封闭的访问组的网络服务。
在本发明一种实施例中,非公众网络可以包含或称为私有网络。私有网络可以称为以下之一:私有通信网络、私网、本地区域网络(LAN)、私有虚拟网络(PVN)、隔离的通信网络、专用的通信网络或其他命名。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中对于命名方式不做具体限定。
在本发明一种实施例中,非公众网络服务可以包含或称为私有网络服务。私有网络服务可以称为以下之一:私有网络的网络服务、私有通信服务、私有网络服务、私网服务、本地区域网络(LAN)服务、私有虚拟网络(PVN)服务、隔离的通信网络服务、专用的通信网络服务、专用的网络服务或其他命名。需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中对于命名方式不做具体限定。

为了能够有效地支持终端访问多个NPN,一个用于接入NPN的证书能够接入多个NPN。一种方式是直接接入,比如通过NPN1的证书接入NPN1;另一种方式是间接接入,比如通过NPN2或PLMN的证书接入NPN1。
为了有效实现终端的网络接入控制,还要解决如下问题:
问题1:当一个用户终端(User Equipment,UE)想接入NPN1,但还没有被配置NPN1的证书时,UE可以向网络请求接入NPN1的权限。当UE已经具有NPN2或PLMN的证书时,UE可以请求追加接入其他网络比如NPN1的权限或者由网络来决定是给UE配置NPN1的证书还是增加UE已经具有证书接入的网络的权限。但这需要网络的提供授权和/或更新UE的签约。目前,网络不知道UE具体想获取哪些NPN的接入权限或者说网络不知道UE想增加哪些已经具有证书能够接入的网络。
问题2:当一个UE想接入NPN1和NPN2,但还没有被配置NPN1和NPN2的证书时,UE在NPN1下请求接入网络的授权或当前网络的证书时,网络目前不知道UE除了NPN1的接入授权请求之外,还存在其他NPN(如NPN2)接入授权请求。另外,不同NPN对应的证书配置服务器可能不同。对控制面方法,是网络中的网元如接入移动管理功能(Access and Mobility Management Function,AMF),收到UE的请求后,直接或间接向证书配置服务器,获取UE的接入网络的证书配置。如果UE想获取NPN的证书或接入权限不同于当前接入的NPN,网络不知道如何为UE选择所述NPN的证书的配置服务器。
一种解决方法是,UE在请求NPN的签约时,提供想要接入的NPN网络列表。对控制面方法,网络(比如AMF)代表UE向配置服务器请求NPN的证书。当不同的NPN的配置服务器不同时,还可以根据UE请求接入的NPN的网络列表来选择配置服务器。网络给UE配置的证书中包含所述证书能够接入的NPN列表。对用户面的方法,终端可以直接向配置服务请求NPN的证书。
本发明一种可选实施例中,NPN包括但不限于以下之一:SNPN(独立组网的NPN),PNI SNPN(公众网络集成的NPN Public network integrated NPN)本发明一种可选实施例中,第二网络的网络类型可以包括但不限于以下之一:PLMN,SNPN,NPN(如SNPN,或PNI NPN)等。

一种实施方式中,所述第二证书的更新信息包含所有允许通过第二证书接入的网络的网络标识信息。即对终端没有请求接入权限的网络,网络也将所述允许通过第二证书接入的网络的网络标识信息发送给终端。
另一种实施方式中,所述第二证书的更新信息仅增加包括所述请求的第一NPN中被允许接入权限的NPN的标识信息。
其中,所述第四网络可以是以下之一:不同于第二NPN的其他网络(如不同于第二NPN的其他NPN,或PLMN),不同于请求第一NPN接入权限的网络的其他网络,或不同于第二网络的其他网络。

下面结合具体实施例对本发明实施例提供的方法进行描述。
本实施例中,如图5所示,UE的NPN证书配置过程可包括如下步骤:
步骤51:UE通过NG-RAN向第一网络的AMF发起注册请求。可选地,在该注册请求中包含UE的请求获取接入证书(credential)的NPN列表list。
一种实施方式中,UE已经具有NPN1的credetial,请求追加NPN2的证书。此时AMF可以通过接入NPN1的证书对UE进行认证。
另一种实施方式中,UE还没有NPN1的证书,同时请求NPN1和NPN2的证书。此时需要通过默认证书(default credential)或者UE提供的SUPI对应的UDM对UE进行认证。
步骤52:AMF根据该NPN list,选择配置服务器,并向该配置服务器发送证书配置请求。
步骤53:如果上述步骤没有认证过UE,可选地,配置服务器通过认证服务器对UE进行认证。
步骤54:认证通过后,配置服务器通过AMF向UE发送配置响应,以对UE进行配置。
一种实施方式中,当请求证书的NPN list包含NPN2时,一方面NPN1的配置服务器可以更新NPN1的证书,补充允许漫游的NPN2。或者NPN2的配置服务器单独给UE配置NPN2的证书。
此外,可选地,配置服务器可将UE的证书同步给UDM。
