Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the indirect communication mode proposed for the 5G core network, communication messages between a producer network element and a consumer network element in the network are all forwarded by a forwarding node.
However, when the forwarding node selects a corresponding producer Network element for a consumer Network element, the related art mostly selects from a producer Network element list in a manner of random or polling, for example, in a Network architecture of the related art shown in fig. 1, when an SCP serving as the forwarding node acquires a service request of the consumer Network element, based on discovery and selection parameters carried in the service request, the SCP may acquire a producer Network element list corresponding to the parameters through a Network Registration Function (NRF), and the SCP may select one producer Network element from the list as a target producer Network element responding to the service request in a manner of random or polling, and forward a service response of the target producer Network element to the consumer Network element.
In the process of selecting the target producer network element, the SCP does not consider whether the state that may occur within a future period of time of the selected producer network element is suitable for the service requirement of the consumer network element, so that the problems of too high load, service congestion, low network element processing efficiency, high error rate, low transmission speed and the like often occur in the process of obtaining and using the service provided by the producer network element by the consumer network element.
In the method, when a forwarding node determines a corresponding producer network element for a consumer network element, state prediction information of the producer network element is obtained, and a target server network element responding to the service request is determined from the producer network element based on the state prediction information, so that the determined state change trend of the target server node in the future can meet the service requirement of the consumer network element, and the stability of an indirect communication mode is improved.
The method provided by the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a forwarding node in a network, and the forwarding node can be configured on a processing device connected in the network, and is used for providing a function of forwarding a communication message for various network elements in the network in which the forwarding node is located through the processing device. The processing device may be a server. The servers may be stand-alone servers or servers in a cluster.
The network element in the network may be a device in the network, and may independently perform a certain transmission function, for example, the NF may be the aforementioned NF, and the NF is a processing function adopted by 3GPP or defined by 3GPP in a network, and has a defined functional behavior and an interface defined by 3 GPP.
The role of the network element in the network may change according to whether a network element is currently in a state of providing a service function or acquiring a service function, for example, when a network element is currently in a state of providing a service function, the network element may be determined as a producer network element, and when the network element is currently in a state of acquiring a service function, the network element may be determined as a consumer network element.
For example, in a network architecture scenario of the embodiment of the present application shown in fig. 2, when the consumer network element 100 needs to acquire a service function, a service request including a service identifier corresponding to the required service function may be sent to the forwarding node 200. The forwarding node 200 determines an identification set 301 according to the service identifier, where identification information included in the identification set 301 is used to identify a network element of a service party providing the service function.
The forwarding node 200 determines status prediction information 302 of the serving network element based on the identification information 301, the status prediction information 302 being used to identify a trend of a change of status of the serving network element.
When the forwarding node 200 determines the target server network element 400 responding to the service request, the state prediction information may be used as a basis for determination, for example, according to the state prediction information, a server node which is about to fail or whose future load may be higher may not be selected, and a server node which is not predicted to fail in the future or whose future load may be relatively lower may be selected as the target server node 400. The determined state change trend of the target server node 400 in the future can meet the actual service requirement of the consumer network element, the service processing efficiency, the bit error rate and the transmission speed in the subsequent service process meet the normal standard, and the stability of the indirect communication mode is improved.
Fig. 3 is a method for determining a network element according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method includes:
s301: and acquiring a service request sent by the network element of the consumer.
When the consumer network element needs to obtain a service function from the network, the forwarding node may obtain a corresponding service request from the consumer network element, where the service request includes a service identifier of the service function required by the consumer network element, and the service identifier may reflect a type of the service function, for example.
In one possible implementation, the service identification may be carried in the discovery and selection parameters. The parameter may include, in addition to the service identifier, time information of a service function required by the consumer network element, and the like.
S302: and determining an identification set corresponding to the service identification.
The forwarding node may determine, according to the service identifier, a plurality of service-side network elements that provide the service function identified by the service identifier, where the number of the determined service-side network elements is generally multiple, and the identifier information corresponding to each of the service-side network elements forms the identifier set.
In an optional implementation manner, after obtaining the service identifier, the forwarding node may send the service identifier to the storage network element, for example, an NRF, so as to obtain an identifier set corresponding to the service identifier from the storage network element.
In an optional implementation manner, if the forwarding node already obtains the identifier set corresponding to the service identifier and the valid time thereof before obtaining the service request, the identifier set and the valid time are cached. Therefore, when the identification set is still in the effective time, the forwarding node can continue to use the identification set without repeatedly acquiring the identification set from the storage network element, thereby reducing the times of network interaction and reducing the time delay of service interaction.
Then the forwarding node may determine, when performing S302, whether identification information of a serving network element providing the service function is locally stored according to the service identification, and the information is valid for a time.
And if so, determining the identification set according to the identification information of the service party network element providing the service function.
If not, it indicates that the local cache does not have the identifier set, and the forwarding node may request the storage network element to obtain the identifier set according to the service identifier.
It should be noted that the form of the identification set in this step may be various, and may be, for example, a list.
S303: and determining the state prediction information of the network element of the service party according to the identification information in the identification set.
Because the identifier set includes the identifier information of the multiple server network elements, the state prediction information determined in this step can represent the state prediction information corresponding to the multiple server network elements.
The state prediction information of any one of the server network elements is used to identify a state change trend of the server network element. The state change trend may reflect a possible future state change of the serving network element, or may further include a possible degree of change.
In this embodiment of the present application, it may be predicted that when the state of the serving network element provides a service function for the serving network element, the state may affect the provided service function or a state associated with the provided service function.
In an alternative implementation, the state may include at least a load and/or fault state.
Accordingly, if the state is a load state, the state prediction information may reflect a load change trend of the serving network element, such as a possible future load level and a change situation.
If the state is a fault state, the state prediction information may reflect a fault trend of the service-side network element, for example, whether a fault will occur in the future or the probability of a possible fault is high or low.
The status prediction information of the serving network element may include the following information (the following table is an example):
content examples of state prediction information embodying the load state:
example of the contents of the state prediction information embodying the fault state:
s304: and determining a target server network element responding to the service request from the server network elements according to the state prediction information.
Since the status prediction information of each service-side network element providing the service function is obtained in S303, when the forwarding node determines the target service-side network element, the forwarding node may use the status prediction information of each service-side network element as a determination basis, thereby determining the target service-side network element responding to the service request.
S305: forwarding the service request to the target server network element.
Therefore, when the network element of the consumer needs to acquire the service function, the service request including the service identifier corresponding to the required service function can be sent to the forwarding node. The forwarding node may determine an identifier set according to the service identifier, where identifier information included in the identifier set is used to identify a service-side network element providing the service function, and may determine state prediction information of the service-side network element based on the identifier information, where the state prediction information is used to identify a state change trend of the service-side network element. When the target server network element responding to the service request is determined, the state prediction information can be used as a determination basis, so that the state change trend of the determined target server node in the future can meet the service requirement of the consumer network element, and the stability of the indirect communication mode is improved.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present application, it is not limited from which source the forwarding node obtains the status prediction information of the serving network element in S303. It may be obtained locally or from other sources. Next, several possible implementations of S303 are described separately.
The first implementation mode comprises the following steps: and obtaining from the data analysis network element.
S3031: and sending a calling request to the data analysis network element.
S3032: and acquiring the state prediction information of the network element of the service party from the data analysis network element.
In the embodiment of the present application, the data analysis network element may have a function of analyzing various types of data in the network, so that the possible state of a certain network element in a future period of time may be predicted. For example, the Data analysis Network element may be a Network Data analysis Function (NWDAF).
And the call request sent by the forwarding node is used for requesting to predict the state of the service party network element identified by the identification information in the identification set. The invocation request may include the identification information in the set of identifications.
The data analysis network element may collect historical data of the serving network element identified by the identification information to predict state prediction information of the serving network element for a period of time in the future.
The action of sending the call request by the forwarding node may belong to calling an interface of the data analysis network element to obtain a behavior of the prediction service provided by the data analysis network element.
It should be noted that, as described above, when the state of the service-side network element to be predicted provides the service function for the service-side network element, the state may affect the provided service function or may be associated with the provided service function. May include a load condition and/or a fault condition.
The forwarding node can make sure the specific state to be predicted through a call request, and if the load state is predicted according to the request of the call request, the state prediction information includes the load change trend of the network element of the service party; and if the prediction requested by the calling request is a fault state, the state prediction information comprises the fault trend of the network element of the service party.
Specifically, the embodiment of the present application provides a manner for setting a call request, so that a data analysis network element can identify what a service function specifically called by a forwarding node is.
The forwarding node may identify the state of the request prediction by setting the contents of an analysis prediction identification field in the invocation request.
The analysis prediction identification field may be an analysis Id field in the call request, which is set with different contents to identify different call requirements, for example, set with "load information" and/or "NF fault warning".
For example, when the forwarding node is an SCP and the data analysis network element is an NWDAF, the identifier set is an NF producer or NF service producer list.
If the SCP calls the load prediction service of the NWDAF, and the analysis Id field in the calling request is set as 'load information', the NWDAF returns the load prediction information of the NF or NF service in the NF or NF service provider list in the calling request to the SCP;
and if the SCP calls the fault early warning service of the NWDAF, and the analysis Id field in the calling request is set to be 'NF fault early warning', the SCP returns the fault early warning information of the NF or the NF service in the NF or service provider list to the SCP.
It should be noted that, in a possible implementation manner, the invocation request further includes predicted time indication information, and then, the state prediction information obtained from the data analysis network element further includes a state valid time of the server network element.
The state validity time may refer to a period of time in which a state may be located, and the like.
Correspondingly, in the above example, if the invocation request further includes indication information of prediction time, in the load prediction information and/or the failure early warning information returned by the NWDAF, the effective time of the prediction information of each NF or NF service may also be carried, that is, the prediction result is only effective within the effective time, and if the effective time is exceeded, the prediction result is invalid.
The second implementation mode comprises the following steps: and obtaining from a local cache.
After obtaining the state prediction information returned by the data analysis network element, the forwarding node can be cached locally.
Therefore, before performing S3031, the forwarding node may determine whether to locally store valid state prediction information corresponding to the service-side network element.
Here, validity may be understood as whether or not the content indicated by the locally cached state prediction information is valid, and may also be understood as whether or not the corresponding state prediction information is locally cached.
When the state prediction information corresponding to the service party network element is locally cached and the content of the state prediction information is in the valid time, it can be determined that the valid state prediction information corresponding to the service party network element is locally cached. The locally cached state prediction information may be directly determined as the state prediction information of the serving network element. Therefore, information interaction between the forwarding node and the data analysis network element is reduced, and the processing efficiency is improved.
When the corresponding state prediction information is not cached or the state prediction information of the content in the invalid time is cached, it can be determined that the valid state prediction information corresponding to the network element of the service party is not cached locally. S3031 may be performed to obtain valid status prediction information from the data analysis network element. So as to obtain the latest state prediction information and improve the processing accuracy.
Next, a specific application scenario of the embodiment of the present application is described with reference to the accompanying drawings, as shown in fig. 4:
1. a service consumer (service provider) sends a service request message to the SCP, which carries the type of service producer, and the relevant discovery and selection parameters.
And 2, when the list information of the service producer (service producer) meeting the selection parameters is not stored locally by the SCP, executing a service discovery process to the NRF, sending the service discovery parameters to the NRF, and obtaining the list information of the NF producer from the NRF.
The SCP invokes a predictive service of the NWDAF, sending information of the instance in the service producer list to the NWDAF. The prediction information may include the following information:
-indicating the prediction type as service load information, such as: the analysis prediction ID is set to "load information";
-analyzing the predictive filtering information: ID information of each service instance;
-a predicted time indication: indicating that predicted time period information is requested.
If the prediction service of the fault early warning information of the NWDAF is invoked, indicating that the prediction type is the fault early warning information, for example: the analysis prediction ID is set to "NF fault warning".
4. If the SCP calls the load prediction service of the NWDAF, the NWDAF returns load prediction information of NF or NF service in the prediction request to the SCP; and if the SCP calls the fault early warning service of the NWDAF, the SCP returns the NF or fault early warning information of the NF service in the NF/NFservice provider list to the SCP. In the return message of the NWDAF, the effective time of the prediction information of each NF or NF service may also be carried, that is, the prediction result is only effective in this time, and if the time is exceeded, the prediction result is invalid. The SCP stores the prediction result, and for the service producer instance in the subsequently received service discovery result, if the SCP stores the effective prediction result of the service producer instance, the SCP does not initiate the prediction request for the service producer instance.
And 5, the SCP assists in selection of the service producer according to the prediction result of the NWDAF. The SCP selects NF or NF service with lighter load or without failure warning information as a service producer instance and sends a service request message to the service producer instance.
And 6, the NF/NF service provider sends a service response message to the SCP, and the SCP sends the service response message to the NF/NF service provider.
