Abstract

In a transmission system a proxy server (66) is located between a user terminal (52) and a server (70). The proxy server has means for intercepting and storing cookies transmitted from the server (70) to the user terminal (52). When a server (70) is contacted by a user terminal (52) and the server (70) transmits a cookie to the user terminal (52), the cookie is intercepted and stored in the proxy server (66). Information regarding the remote server, e.g. its URL and an identification identifying the user terminal (52) is stored together with the cookie. The next time the user terminal (52) accesses the same server (70) the proxy server (66) matches the requested URL and the identification information and in this manner finds the stored cookie. The cookie is then added to the request message so that the server (70) is accessed with a copy of the cookie as desired. In this manner the cookies do not need to be stored in the user terminal (52), which may have a small memory and which therefore is not suited for storing cookies. Furthermore, when the user terminal (52) is a mobile terminal the cookie is not transmitted over an air-interface, thereby reducing the risk of eavesdropping significantly.

Description

传送曲奇信息的方法和系统Method and system for transmitting cookie information

本发明涉及在客户和服务器之间传送曲奇信息的一种方法和系统。特别是本发明涉及只有少量内存的终端用户或客户，以及涉及客户通过有限带宽的信道与服务器通信的系统。The present invention relates to a method and system for transferring cookie information between a client and a server. In particular, the invention relates to end users or clients having only a small amount of memory, and to systems in which clients communicate with servers over channels of limited bandwidth.

在当今的互联网应用中，越来越频繁地使用所谓的曲奇。In today's Internet applications, so-called cookies are used more and more frequently.

曲奇是由网景公司开发的一种机制，用来弥补超文本传输协议(HTTP)的无状态属性。一般地，某个浏览器每次从网络服务器请求某一页的URL，该请求作为一个全新的交互动作来对待。当用户系统地浏览该站点时，该请求可能是一系列请求中最新的，这一事实被丢失。尽管这使得网页更有效率，但这种无状态的行为使得它很难生成必须记住在一段时间内的用户动作的类似购物推车这样的东西。Cookies are a mechanism developed by Netscape to compensate for the stateless nature of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). Generally, each time a browser requests the URL of a certain page from the web server, the request is treated as a brand new interactive action. As the user browses the site systematically, the fact that the request may be the latest in a series is lost. While this makes web pages more efficient, this stateless behavior makes it difficult to generate things like shopping carts that must remember user actions over time.

曲奇解决了这样的问题。曲奇是不多的短会话标识符的一小块信息，当浏览器第一次连接时，HTTP服务器将曲奇发送至浏览器。曲奇包括一个短指令，它后面跟随最多4k字节的数据域。其后，每次浏览器连接至发布曲奇的服务器时，它返回该曲奇的备份至服务器。Cookies solve such problems. A cookie is a small piece of information with a small number of short session identifiers. When the browser connects for the first time, the HTTP server sends the cookie to the browser. A cookie consists of a short command followed by a data field of up to 4k bytes. Thereafter, each time the browser connects to the server that issued the cookie, it returns a copy of that cookie to the server.

一般地，服务器使用曲奇来记住用户并保持跨越多页的会话影像。因为曲奇不是标准HTTP标准中的部分，只有一些浏览器支持它们，如微软IE3.0和更高版本，网景Navigator2.0和更高版本。为了利用曲奇，服务器和/或它的CGI脚本必须知道曲奇。Typically, servers use cookies to remember users and keep a snapshot of a session across multiple pages. Because cookies are not part of the standard HTTP standard, only some browsers support them, such as Microsoft IE3.0 and higher, Netscape Navigator2.0 and higher. In order to utilize cookies, the server and/or its CGI scripts must know about cookies.

曲奇不能用来窃取计算机系统的信息，比如他们不能进入计算机系统并从中返回信息。他们只能用来保存在某位置提供的信息。这样，例如，如果某人填表给出喜欢的色彩，服务器能将该信息变成曲奇并将它发送至使用的浏览器。下次浏览器接触该站点时，浏览器将返回曲奇，容许服务器改变它的网页的背景颜色来适合用户的喜好。Cookies cannot be used to steal information from a computer system, eg they cannot enter a computer system and return information from it. They can only be used to save information provided in a certain location. Thus, for example, if someone fills out a form with a favorite color, the server can turn that information into a cookie and send it to the browser used. The next time the browser touches the site, the browser will return the cookie, allowing the server to change the background color of its web pages to suit the user's preferences.

然而，包含在曲奇中的信息当在互联网上传递时当然能被截取。当信息在有线网络传送时或信息为如色彩喜好之类无害的信息时，这可能不会发生什么大问题。However, the information contained in cookies can of course be intercepted when passed on the Internet. This may not be a big problem when the information is traveling over a wired network or when the information is something innocuous like color preferences.

在有些情况下，包含在曲奇中的信息是保密的，而且有时可能要通过无线网络传递，例如当终端用户使用移动终端，诸如膝上计算机或经调制解调器通过无线网络通信的任何其它计算机。在这种情况下，保密信息能十分容易地被偷听，因为该信息至少部分地通过空气介质传送，这里它能被一些不同的设备窃取。In some cases, the information contained in the cookie is confidential and may sometimes be transmitted over a wireless network, for example when the end user uses a mobile terminal, such as a laptop computer or any other computer that communicates over a wireless network via a modem. In this case, the confidential information can be eavesdropped quite easily, since the information is transmitted at least partly through the air medium, where it can be stolen by several different devices.

还有一个问题与从不同站点传送曲奇有关，因为该站点不能判定曲奇发送至的用户终端是否能接收或保存该曲奇。因此，例如在一些手持用户终端，内存很有限，如果许多站点传送曲奇至这样的用户终端，这样的一个终端的内存将很快地被曲奇充满，而其它更重要的信息不能被保存。There is also a problem related to the transmission of cookies from different sites, because the site cannot determine whether the user terminal to which the cookie is sent can receive or store the cookie. Therefore, for example, in some handheld user terminals, memory is very limited, and if many sites transmit cookies to such user terminals, the memory of such a terminal will be filled with cookies very quickly, while other more important information cannot be saved.

本发明的目的之一是克服传送曲奇至只有十分有限内存的用户终端有关的问题，同时降低曲奇信息如上描述一样被偷听的风险。One of the objects of the present invention is to overcome the problems associated with transmitting cookies to user terminals with very limited memory, while at the same time reducing the risk of cookie information being eavesdropped as described above.

该目的和其它目的能通过在终端用户和远端服务器之间设置一个代理服务器来实现，该代理服务器能截取并保存从远端服务器传送至终端用户的曲奇。This object and others can be achieved by placing a proxy server between the end user and the remote server, the proxy server being able to intercept and save the cookies transmitted from the remote server to the end user.

这样，当远端HTTP服务器或其它之类的服务器被终端用户联系，并且远端服务器传送曲奇至用户终端，该曲奇被截取并保存在代理服务器中。有关远端服务器的信息，如它的URL和标识用户终端或用户的一个标识与曲奇保存在一起。下次用户终端或用户访问同一HTTP服务器时，代理服务器匹配被请求的URL和标识信息，并在这种方式下找到保存的曲奇。然后该曲奇被加到请求信息中，这样用所希望的曲奇备份访问远端服务器。In this way, when a remote HTTP server or other such server is contacted by a terminal user, and the remote server transmits a cookie to the user terminal, the cookie is intercepted and stored in the proxy server. Information about the remote server, such as its URL and an identifier identifying the user terminal or user, is stored with the cookie. The next time the user terminal or user accesses the same HTTP server, the proxy server matches the requested URL and identification information, and in this way finds the saved cookie. The cookie is then added to the request message so that the remote server is accessed with the desired cookie backup.

在这种方式下，曲奇不需要保存在用户终端中，该终端可能只有很少的内存，因此不适合保存曲奇。而且，当用户终端是移动终端时，曲奇不是通过空气介质传送，因此大大减少了通过空气介质传送的数据量。In this way, cookies need not be stored in the user's terminal, which may have very little memory and is therefore not suitable for storing cookies. Moreover, when the user terminal is a mobile terminal, the cookie is not transmitted through the air medium, thus greatly reducing the amount of data transmitted through the air medium.

现在通过没有限制的实例并参考附图进一步描述本发明，其中：The invention will now be further described by way of non-limiting example and with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

图1是包括一个移动终端的传送系统的总体视图。FIG. 1 is an overall view of a delivery system including a mobile terminal.

图2是一个流程图，它解释当从用户终端接收一个URL请求时在代理服务器中执行的步骤。Fig. 2 is a flowchart explaining the steps performed in the proxy server when receiving a URL request from the user terminal.

图1中示出了一个通信网络的总体视图。该网络包括有网络浏览器54的用户终端52。用户终端52也包括一无线调制解调器58，使用调制解调器58用户终端52能连接至无线基站60。无线基站60连接至位于传送系统的中间位置的远端代理服务器66，例如，如果该系统为GSM系统时的主位置寄存器(HLR)。代理服务器66包括或连接至保存有关曲奇的信息的存储器72，该曲奇通过代理服务器66传送。代理服务器66连接至万维网(WWW)或与数个远端服务器70连接的互联网68。A general view of a communication network is shown in FIG. 1 . The network includes user terminals 52 with web browsers 54 . The user terminal 52 also includes a wireless modem 58 using which the user terminal 52 can connect to a wireless base station 60 . The radio base station 60 is connected to a remote proxy server 66 located at an intermediate location in the delivery system, eg a home location register (HLR) if the system is a GSM system. The proxy server 66 includes or is connected to a memory 72 that holds information about cookies transmitted through the proxy server 66 . The proxy server 66 is connected to the World Wide Web (WWW) or the Internet 68 to which several remote servers 70 are connected.

代理服务器66也能位于系统中的其它位置或分布在系统中。例如，如果该传送系统为GSM系统，曲奇信息能被保存在访问点寄存器(VLR)或者甚至共处在无线基站中。Proxy server 66 can also be located elsewhere in the system or distributed throughout the system. For example, if the transmission system is a GSM system, cookie information can be kept in a access point register (VLR) or even co-located in a radio base station.

在GSM系统的优先实施例中，代理服务器66与HLR在一起，VLR以及可能还有一些无线基站提供缓存曲奇信息的缓存服务器。当然相似的安排也可用于其它的无线移动系统。In the preferred embodiment of the GSM system, the proxy server 66 together with the HLR, VLR and possibly some radio base stations provide caching servers for caching cookie information. Of course similar arrangements can also be used for other wireless mobile systems.

当用户终端52第一次访问在这样的远端服务器70中的站点时，可以传送一曲奇返回用户终端52。如同上面描述一样，曲奇是不多的短会话标示符的一小块信息，HTTP服务器发送曲奇至浏览器并可以包含至多4K字节的信息。When the user terminal 52 visits a site in such a remote server 70 for the first time, a cookie may be sent back to the user terminal 52 . As described above, a cookie is a small piece of information with a small number of short session identifiers. The HTTP server sends a cookie to the browser and can contain up to 4K bytes of information.

该曲奇被代理服务器66截取，代理服务器66保存曲奇以及与发出该曲奇的URL和标识用户终端52的标识有关的信息。然后该曲奇将不通过无线网络传送，这些无线网络通常只有很小的带宽一般为4.8K字节/秒，这会降低传送时间。而且，将不再需要将曲奇保存在用户终端52中，该用户终端52可以是手持计算机如由爱立信公司生产的MC-16，或只有有限内存的智能电话。The cookie is intercepted by the proxy server 66, which stores the cookie and information about the URL from which the cookie was issued and the identifier identifying the user terminal 52. The cookie will then not be transmitted over wireless networks, which typically have very little bandwidth typically 4.8Kbytes/second, which reduces transmission time. Furthermore, there would be no need to store cookies in the user terminal 52, which could be a handheld computer such as the MC-16 produced by Ericsson, or a smart phone with only limited memory.

下一次用户终端52访问发出该曲奇的同一站点时，代理服务器66将识别用户终端52，并检查用户正在访问哪一个站点或统一资源定位器(URL)。如果该站点先前访问过，代理服务器将能够匹配URL的标志，从而找到与那个特定的URL相关的曲奇。The next time the user terminal 52 visits the same site that issued the cookie, the proxy server 66 will identify the user terminal 52 and check which site or Uniform Resource Locator (URL) the user is visiting. If the site has been visited before, the proxy server will be able to match the URL's signature to find the cookie associated with that particular URL.

然后，代理服务器66将该曲奇加到自用户终端向服务器70的请求中。接着远端服务器70与曲奇一起将接收一个连接请求，好像曲奇已经从浏览器本身返回。在这种方式下，数据通过无线方式流通，减低了访问路径的低位率部分，并且能降低用户终端52上的内存要求。The proxy server 66 then adds the cookie to requests from the user terminal to the server 70 . The remote server 70 will then receive a connection request along with the cookie, as if the cookie had been returned from the browser itself. In this way, data is communicated wirelessly, reducing the low bit rate portion of the access path and reducing memory requirements on the user terminal 52 .

图2示出了当接收到从用户终端向与互联网连接的远端服务器70的连接请求，在远端代理服务器中执行的动作的流程图。因此，首先，在块201中，接收自用户终端52的请求。然后，在块203中，用户要访问的URL从该请求中读取。接着，在块205中，决定用户终端或用户的标识。FIG. 2 shows a flow chart of actions performed in the remote proxy server when a connection request is received from the user terminal to the remote server 70 connected to the Internet. Thus, first, in block 201 , a request from a user terminal 52 is received. Then, in block 203, the URL that the user wants to visit is read from the request. Next, in block 205, the identity of the user terminal or user is determined.

然后在块203和205中执行的动作结果用在207中，来决定URL是否先前已被特殊的用户终端请求过或访问过。因此，在207中，检查是否有保存在内存72中的曲奇，该曲奇与特殊的URL和特殊的标识有关。The results of the actions performed in blocks 203 and 205 are then used in 207 to determine whether the URL has been previously requested or visited by a particular user terminal. Therefore, in 207, it is checked whether there is a cookie stored in the memory 72, which is related to the special URL and the special identification.

如果匹配，例如服务器前面已经保存用于对应特殊URL的特殊用户的曲奇，该曲奇被加到块209中的请求中，然后该请求转发至被请求的URL位于其中的远端服务器。另一方面，如果在块207中不能匹配，例如，特殊URL被特殊用户第一次访问，该请求直接转发至块211中的服务器70。If there is a match, for example, the server has previously stored a cookie for a particular user corresponding to a particular URL, the cookie is added to the request in block 209, and then the request is forwarded to the remote server where the requested URL is located. On the other hand, if there is no match in block 207 , for example, the particular URL is being accessed for the first time by a particular user, the request is forwarded directly to the server 70 in block 211 .

因此，通过在代理服务器中保存曲奇信息，该曲奇不需要保存在用户终端中，在很多情况下，这些用户终端只有少量内存并且因此不适宜保存曲奇。而且，当用户终端是移动终端时，曲奇不通过空气介质传送，从而大大减少了传输的数据量。同时，通过这里描述的方法和系统降低了数据被截取的风险。Thus, by storing cookie information in the proxy server, the cookie does not need to be stored in user terminals, which in many cases have only a small amount of memory and are therefore not suitable for storing cookies. Moreover, when the user terminal is a mobile terminal, the cookie is not transmitted through the air medium, thereby greatly reducing the amount of transmitted data. At the same time, the risk of data interception is reduced by the methods and systems described herein.
