| 20080244090 | Access Device Routing Device and Method Thereof Supporting Stateless Address Configuration Communication Network - The present invention relates to an IPv6-based access device, edge router and method for stainless address configuration for IPv6 user equipment in an Ethernet access network, wherein, the access device adds the relay agent ID indicating the access device itself and the relevant port identifier indicating the user equipment to a router solicitation message sent by the user equipment in the form of a newly defined option, and forwards the message to the relevant edge router; and the edge router configures a dedicated address prefix for the user equipment according to the relay agent ID and port identifier, combines the address prefix, the relay ID and the port identifier into a router response message, and sends the response message to the relevant access equipment indicated by the relay ID; the access device sends a router advertisement message only including the address prefix via the line port indicated by the port identifier to user equipment. By allocating the dedicated address prefix to every data subscriber line for IPv6 service, IPv6 stainless address configuration is achieved to solve the security and scalability problems in the prior art. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20090204850 | APPARATUS AND A METHOD FOR REPORTING THE ERROR OF EACH LEVEL OF THE TUNNEL DATA PACKET IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK - The invention provides methods and devices for reporting and parsing the errors of a packet based on IPSec protocol family in a communication network. Concretely, the reserved field in ICMP security failure message is used to denote the error type at the second level of the error in the packet. With the aid of the solution provided by the invention, it is possible to report the error types for a tunnel packet which has an error in detail. And the source termination device can ascertain the error types of a tunnel packet, so as to eliminate the error. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090274062 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR UPDATING DNS OF HOST IN IPV6 STATELESS ADDRESS CONFIGURATION - Disclosed is a method for updating DNS of host in IPv6 stateless address auto-configuration, wherein an option is added in the RS message sent by a host and/or RA message sent by a router, said option including information for negotiation of updating DNS of host. Based on said information, the host negotiates with the router to determine whether the host or the router register, the mapping between the global address of the host and the full domain name of the host, to a DNS server, to complete updating the DNS of the host. This invention enables the host to correctly identify the matching relation between domain name suffix information and address prefix, and achieves the negotiation of updating DNS domain name between the host and the router. Since DNS updating is performed by a router instead of the host, the DNS updating would become simple and safe. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20100290463 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING MULTICAST IP PACKETS IN ACCESS NETWORK - The present invention proposes a method for controlling the uplink transmission of the multicast IP packet sourced from the UE in field of IP packet transmission in access network. According to the technical solution of the present invention, the access devices receives IP packet from the UE, checks the IP packet and determines whether the IP packet is multicast IP packet that is allowed to be accessed. If the access device determines that the IP packet is multicast IP packet that is allowed to be accessed, then it sends the multicast IP packet in multicast form. Via the present invention, the access device can allow the uplink valid multicast IP packet to pass, preferably, determines and intercepts the malicious attacks via multicast IP packet, so as to ensure the DSL access device's support for mobile IPv4, so as to keep the uninterrupted connection of the service to the user when the user moves between different subnets. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20110013529 | Method and device for processing access of user terminals in fixed access networks - Improvements are made to an access control equipment, a user-side equipment, and a user terminal through this invention. Wherein, the access control equipment obtains the resource condition of the link between itself and the user-side equipment, and provides it to each user terminal via the user-side equipment, for the convenience of the user terminal to perform the access point selection. Besides, the access control equipment further performs reasonable allocation for the resource in the link according to a predefined rule without depending on a quasi-static configuration of user. | 01-20-2011 |
| 20110128956 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REQUESTING MULTICAST, PROCESSING AND ASSISTING MULTICAST REQUEST - According to at least one particular embodiment of the present invention, in an ASM-based RP, when the RP receives a multicast transmission request from a multicast source, it processes said multicast transmission request of the multicast source according to the multicast transmission request and remaining resources available for multicast forwarding in the RP. When using the methods and apparatuses provided in the present invention, by means of reasonable controls on the multicast transmission request conducted by the RP according to its resource situation, the hardware processing loads and the port traffic load of RP can be effectively maintained within an appropriate range, thereby avoiding resource exhaustion, and the disadvantageous impact of new multicast services on the existing services can be also avoided. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110149873 | METHOD AND FOREIGN AGENT GROUP FOR REGISTERING TO A HOME AGENT OF A MOBILE NODE - The present invention provides an improved solution of registering with a Home Agent HA of a Mobile Node MN, comprising: grouping at lest two Foreign Agents FAs to form a Foreign Agent Group FAG to enable FA members of the FAG to share information of the MN roaming into a FAG coverage area; when any FA member of the FAG receives a registration request for registering a care-of address with the HA sent by the MN, determining whether the MN enters the FAG coverage area for the first time based on the shared MN information; and if the MN enters the FAG coverage area for the first time, the FA forwards the received registration request to the HA; otherwise, the FA directly sends a registration response to the MN. The solution of the present invention greatly reduces registration messages from the MN to the HA, thereby reducing signaling delay produced when the MN moves in the FN. Also, both the MN and the HA in the prior art can be merged into the solution, thereby achieving seamless integration with IPv4, preferably with Mobile IPv4 scheme. | 06-23-2011 |
