Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to a business continuity method and system for changing a shunt gateway.
Background
A offload gateway product generally refers to a system or device for traffic management and routing in a network architecture that can handle functions such as traffic monitoring, logging, throttling control, black and white list management, and load balancing. The following are some key points:
1. reverse proxy and static resource mapping: nginx is a widely used offload gateway product that enables mapping of reverse proxy and static resources, helps forward client requests to the correct server, and provides the ability to cache static resources.
2. User plane function: in a 5G core network (5 GC), UPF (user plane function) is an important network element, which supports routing and forwarding of user traffic data, identification of data and traffic, policy enforcement, and the like. UPF interacts with other network elements through N4 interfaces, and is a key component for realizing distribution and management in 5G networks.
3. Micro service gateway: in micro-service architecture, an API gateway plays an important role, which not only manages the global policies of the API, but also handles calls and data exchanges between services. When the micro service gateway is designed, how to process billions of traffic is needed to be considered, and the stability and the expandability of the system are ensured.
4. Traffic management policy: the traffic gateway also focuses on global API management policies such as global traffic monitoring, logging, global throttling, black and white list control, and load balancing of access requests to the service system. These functions are somewhat similar to firewalls, but focus more on fine management and optimization of traffic.
In summary, the offload gateway products play a vital role in modern network architecture, both in traditional Web services and in emerging 5G networks, which are key components to ensure efficient, secure operation of the network.
The shunt gateway product is deployed between the base station and the core network, and the function of the product is to realize the central and local data shunt. The central flow is transmitted to the core machine room through the transmission network, the local flow is unloaded to the local DN through the shunt gateway, and the transmission delay is reduced. The shunt gateway product realizes partial UPF function and completes the interaction between the local data and the base station.

Embodiment one:
the embodiment provides a service continuity method for changing a shunt gateway, which is applied under a 5G core network architecture, and switches signaling by means of the 5G core network,
The shunting gateway is deployed between the base station and the core network, and the shunting gateway is used for shunting local service traffic and central service traffic. In the process that the terminal equipment UE accesses the NG-RAN for the first time, the distribution gateway identifies the information such as the UE IP address, the AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, the RAN-UE-NGAP-ID, the N3 GTPU tunnel and the like according to the N2 signaling and the N3 data packet and stores the association relation. The uplink data are distinguished to the local or central according to the routing rule of the shunt gateway which is configured in advance. The local data distribution gateway strips off the GTPU header information carried by the base station and forwards the GTPU header information to the local DN. If the data is to the central machine room, the data is directly forwarded to the central UPF.
Referring to fig. 1-4, when a local service is performed, a terminal moves to cause a base station and a shunt gateway to change, and at this time:
when the shunting gateway is changed in the N2 switching process, the source shunting gateway actively transmits the UE IP address and the GTPU tunnel information to the target shunting gateway to complete the association of user information, actively transmits the analog data packet, updates DN route information and ensures service continuity;
When the XN switching process causes the change of the distribution gateway, the target distribution gateway initiates the acquisition of the UE IP address and the GTPU tunnel information to the source distribution gateway through the SourceAMF _UE_NGAP_ID field, so as to be related to the user information, update the local DN routing information and ensure the service continuity.
N2 handover refers to the process of a mobile device switching from a 4G network to a 5G network, particularly under the 5GNon-standalone (NSA) network architecture.
Referring to fig. 2, in this embodiment, when the N2 handover procedure causes the change of the shunt gateway,
The source distribution gateway discovers a target base station through a signaling of identification Handover Required, and identifies the associated GTPU tunnel information of the UE and the IP address of the UE;
the UE IP address and the GTPU tunnel are sent to the target shunt gateway through the Agent of the source shunt gateway through the source shunt gateway information associated with the target base station configured locally;
After receiving the information, the target distribution gateway identifies the user information through the Handover Command and Handover Complete information, and associates the current latest information with the UE IP address through the received downlink GTPU tunnel information, thereby establishing a new relation;
After the relation is established, the target distribution gateway simulates an uplink data packet, and after the uplink data packet is forwarded to the DN, the route information of the DN is changed to the target distribution gateway, and subsequent data is transmitted to the target base station and the terminal equipment UE through the target distribution gateway.
XN switching, where the function of the XN interface: in a 5G network, the XN interface (or referred to as XN interface) is an interface connecting different base stations for supporting handover of User Equipment (UE) during mobility. When a UE moves from one base station service area to another, an XN handover is required in order to ensure continuity of service. XN switching flow: the flow of XN handover is similar to X2 handover in 4G LTE. When the UE moves and needs to switch to a new base station, the source base station initiates a handover request and communicates with the target base station through the XN interface. After confirming that the UE can be served, the target base station may send an RRC reconfiguration message to the UE, including necessary information of the new cell. And the UE completes the switching to the new base station according to the information and sends an RRC reconfiguration completion message to confirm the completion of the switching. While the UPF (user plane function) may not change when the XN handover procedure causes the change of the breakout gateway, in some cases a change of the breakout gateway may occur if the new base station is connected to a different UPF or needs to route data through a different path. This change is to ensure that the data stream is efficiently transported to the correct destination while maintaining the performance and stability of the network.
Referring to fig. 4, in this embodiment, when the XN handover procedure causes the change of the shunt gateway,
The target shunt gateway obtains SourceAMF _UE_NGAP_ID information according to the received PATH SWITCH Request, locally inquires source shunt gateway information, and forwards the information to the source shunt gateway through an Agent;
after receiving the data packet, the source distribution gateway inquires about the UE context information, and forwards the information related to the UE, including GTPU tunnel information and the UE IP address, to the target distribution gateway;
The target shunt gateway learns the latest tunnel information according to PATH SWITCH Request and PATH SWITCH Request Ack and associates the information acquired from the source shunt gateway, so that a new relation is established;
After the relation is established, the target distribution gateway simulates an uplink data packet, and after the uplink data packet is forwarded to the DN, the route information of the DN is changed to the target distribution gateway, and subsequent data is transmitted to the target base station and the terminal equipment UE through the target distribution gateway.
Embodiment two:
With reference to fig. 1-4, this embodiment proposes a service continuity system for changing a shunt gateway, which is applied under a 5G core network architecture, and the implementation process involves a source shunt gateway and a target shunt gateway by means of 5G core network handover signaling, where:

The supplementary ones are: the shunting gateway is deployed between the base station and the core network, and the shunting gateway is used for shunting local service traffic and central service traffic. In the process that the terminal equipment UE accesses the NG-RAN for the first time, the distribution gateway identifies the information such as the UE IP address, the AMF-UE-NGAP-ID, the RAN-UE-NGAP-ID, the N3 GTPU tunnel and the like according to the N2 signaling and the N3 data packet and stores the association relation. The uplink data are distinguished to the local or central according to the routing rule of the shunt gateway which is configured in advance. The local data distribution gateway strips off the GTPU header information carried by the base station and forwards the GTPU header information to the local DN. If the data is to the central machine room, the data is directly forwarded to the central UPF.
When the local service is performed, the terminal movement causes the base station and the distribution gateway to change.
N2 handover refers to the process of a mobile device switching from a 4G network to a 5G network, particularly under the 5GNon-standalone (NSA) network architecture.
Referring to fig. 2, in this embodiment, when the N2 handover procedure causes the change of the shunt gateway,
The source distribution gateway discovers a target base station through a signaling of identification Handover Required, and identifies the associated GTPU tunnel information of the UE and the IP address of the UE;
the UE IP address and the GTPU tunnel are sent to the target shunt gateway through the Agent of the source shunt gateway through the source shunt gateway information associated with the target base station configured locally;
After receiving the information, the target distribution gateway identifies the user information through the Handover Command and Handover Complete information, and associates the current latest information with the UE IP address through the received downlink GTPU tunnel information, thereby establishing a new relation;
After the relation is established, the target distribution gateway simulates an uplink data packet, and after the uplink data packet is forwarded to the DN, the route information of the DN is changed to the target distribution gateway, and subsequent data is transmitted to the target base station and the terminal equipment UE through the target distribution gateway.
XN switching, where the function of the XN interface: in a 5G network, the XN interface (or referred to as XN interface) is an interface connecting different base stations for supporting handover of User Equipment (UE) during mobility. When a UE moves from one base station service area to another, an XN handover is required in order to ensure continuity of service. XN switching flow: the flow of XN handover is similar to X2 handover in 4G LTE. When the UE moves and needs to switch to a new base station, the source base station initiates a handover request and communicates with the target base station through the XN interface. After confirming that the UE can be served, the target base station may send an RRC reconfiguration message to the UE, including necessary information of the new cell. And the UE completes the switching to the new base station according to the information and sends an RRC reconfiguration completion message to confirm the completion of the switching. While the UPF (user plane function) may not change when the XN handover procedure causes the change of the breakout gateway, in some cases a change of the breakout gateway may occur if the new base station is connected to a different UPF or needs to route data through a different path. This change is to ensure that the data stream is efficiently transported to the correct destination while maintaining the performance and stability of the network.
Referring to fig. 4, in this embodiment, when the XN handover procedure causes the change of the shunt gateway,
