Access control is achieved by setting the domain name whitelist.
如上所述,只有存取位于域名列表上的域名不会受到控制。经由WAP闸道器1310存取网际网络网域1350白名单的服务地址并不会被禁止。存取的控制是藉由域名白名单的设定来达成。As mentioned above, only access to domain names that are on the domain name list will not be controlled. Access to service addresses in the whitelist of the
根据本发明的月付型用户使用手持式装置做HTML浏览,WAP闸道器的(预付型)IP地址是由GGSN指派。服务平台系统传送信息通知用户浏览HTML内容的封包将会被计费,之后才提供网际网络网域或GPRS免费网域的存取服务。According to the invention a monthly subscription user uses a handheld device for HTML browsing, the (prepaid) IP address of the WAP gateway is assigned by the GGSN. The service platform system sends a message to inform the user that the package of browsing the HTML content will be charged, and then the access service of the Internet domain or GPRS free domain is provided.
根据本发明的预付型用户使用手持式装置做HTML浏览,WAP闸道器的(预付型)IP地址由GGSN指派。无论经由WAP闸道器存取网域白名单以外网域或直接经由GGSN存取网际网络网域都是被禁止的。此外,若欲经由GGSN直接存取GPRS免费网域时,会产生错误信息告知目标无法连接或存取HTML内容被拒绝。若存取的域名存在于预付型用户专属的WAP闸道器的域名白名单,则允许预付型用户对于GPRS免费网域的存取。反之,若存取的域名不存在于此域名白名单内,则存取会被禁止。由于经由WAP闸道器存取网际网络网域并不会被禁止,这部分的资料流量会根据WAP通话收费记录,于使用后向使用者收取费用。Prepaid users according to the invention use handheld devices for HTML browsing, and the (prepaid) IP address of the WAP gateway is assigned by the GGSN. Accessing domains outside the domain whitelist through WAP gateways or accessing Internet domains directly through GGSN is prohibited. In addition, if you want to directly access the GPRS free network domain through GGSN, an error message will be generated telling the target that it cannot be connected or that access to HTML content is denied. If the domain name to be accessed exists in the domain name white list of the WAP gateway dedicated to the prepaid user, then the prepaid user is allowed to access the GPRS free network domain. Conversely, if the accessed domain name does not exist in the domain name whitelist, access will be prohibited. Since accessing the Internet domain through the WAP gateway will not be prohibited, this part of the data traffic will be charged to the user after use according to the WAP call charge record.
本发明的另一形式是包含:具有SBCC模块以及WAP闸道器IP地址与域名滤除功能的GGSN;不具有URL白名单但具有域名白名单的WAP闸道器;存放于中介闸道器上的URL白名单;具有URL白名单的第四层交换器,提供功能给预付型用户专属的WAP闸道器;与包含GGSN通话收费记录与WAP通话收费记录的中介闸道器。Another form of the present invention is to include: GGSN with SBCC module and WAP gateway IP address and domain name filtering function; WAP gateway without URL whitelist but with domain name whitelist; stored on the intermediary gateway The URL whitelist; the fourth-layer switch with URL whitelist, which provides functions to the WAP gateway dedicated to prepaid users; and the intermediary gateway that includes GGSN call charge records and WAP call charge records.
个别的WAP闸道器通过设定URL的方式提供其功能给月付型与预付型用户。预付型用户专属的WAP闸道器还包含第四层(L4)交换器。而具有SBCC的GGSN则藉由IP地址/域名的设定与接入点名称的设定提供其功能。Individual WAP gateways provide their functions to monthly and prepaid users by setting URLs. WAP gateways for prepaid users also include Layer 4 (L4) switches. The GGSN with SBCC provides its functions by setting the IP address/domain name and the setting of the access point name.
对于本发明的月付型用户,WAP闸道器的(月付型)IP地址由GGSN指派。网际网络网域与GPRS免费网域的存取直接经由GGSN或是经由WAP闸道器。GGSN还包括一个SBCC模块用来记录GGSN通话收费记录。For monthly subscription users of the present invention, the (subscription) IP address of the WAP gateway is assigned by the GGSN. Internet domains and GPRS free domains are accessed directly via GGSN or via WAP gateways. GGSN also includes an SBCC module used to record GGSN call charge records.
基于内容计费方法使用于月付型用户,其GGSN通话收费记录记录了三种资料流量:经由GGSN到网际网络网域的资料流量、经由GGSN到WAP闸道器的资料流量以及经由GGSN到GPRS免费网域的资料流量。其WAP通话收费记录则记录了经由WAP闸道器到网际网络网域。资料流量与经由WAP闸道器到GPRS免费网域的资料流量。这两种通话收费记录会被提供给中介闸道器,滤除经由WAP闸道器到GPRS免费网域的资料流量所产生的费用,接着中介闸道器将此滤除后的通话收费记录提供给账务系统并将内容资料提供给资料仓储系统。因此,月付型用户的计费根据经由GGSN到绸际网络网域的资料流量加上经由WAP闸道器到网际网络网域的资料流量再加上经由GGSN直接到免费网域的资料流量。资料仓储系统则根据内容资料产生分析报表。The content-based billing method is used for monthly payment users, and its GGSN call charge records record three kinds of data traffic: data traffic via GGSN to Internet domain, data traffic via GGSN to WAP gateway, and data traffic via GGSN to GPRS Data traffic for a free domain. Its WAP call charge record records the Internet domain through the WAP gateway. Data traffic and data traffic via WAP gateway to GPRS free domain. These two types of call charge records will be provided to the intermediary gateway to filter out the charges generated by the data flow from the WAP gateway to the GPRS free network domain, and then the intermediary gateway will provide the filtered call charge records To the accounting system and provide content data to the data storage system. Therefore, the billing of monthly payment users is based on the data flow to the Internet domain via GGSN plus the data flow to the Internet domain via WAP gateway plus the data flow directly to the free domain via GGSN. The data warehousing system generates analysis reports based on the content data.
中介闸道器存有一URL白名单,其为允许存取的GPRS免费网域的内容列表。在GPRS免费网域上提供有一服务平台系统,该系统会与中介闸道器沟通适当的URL白名单。The intermediary gateway stores a URL whitelist, which is a content list of GPRS free domains that are allowed to be accessed. A service platform system is provided on the GPRS free domain, which communicates the appropriate URL whitelist with the intermediary gateway.
对于本发明的预付型用户,WAP闸道器的(预付型)IP地址由GGSN指派。基于内容计费方法使用于预付型用户,其GGSN通话收费记录记录了经由GGSN到WAP闸道器的资料流量。其WAP通话收费记录则记录了经由WAP闸道器到GPRS免费网域的资料流量。这两种通话收费记录会被提供给中介闸道器,滤除经由GGSN到WAP闸道器的资料流量所产生的费用。中介闸道器将内容资料提供给资料仓储系统。预付型用户是无法直接经由GGSN存取网际网络网域。For prepaid users of the present invention, the (prepaid) IP address of the WAP gateway is assigned by the GGSN. The content-based billing method is used for prepaid users, and its GGSN call charge record records the data flow from the GGSN to the WAP gateway. Its WAP call charge record records the data flow from the WAP gateway to the GPRS free network domain. These two call charge records will be provided to the intermediary gateway to filter out the charges generated by the data flow from the GGSN to the WAP gateway. The intermediary gateway provides the content data to the data storage system. Prepaid users cannot directly access Internet domains via GGSN.
此外,根据本发明的存取GPRS免费网域只可经由WAP闸道器而无法经由GGSN直接存取。域名白名单存放于WAP闸道器,其为允许预付型用户存取的GPRS免费网域的内容列表。然而,经由WAP闸道器存取网际网络网域并不会被禁止。因此,介于WAP闸道器与网际网络网域存在有一第四层交换器(L4 switch),提供类似URL白名单过滤器(filter)的功能。第四层交换器可以阻止经由WAP闸道器对于网际网络网域不适当的存取。In addition, the access to the GPRS free domain according to the present invention can only be accessed through the WAP gateway and cannot be directly accessed through the GGSN. The domain name white list is stored in the WAP gateway, which is a content list of GPRS free domains that prepaid users are allowed to access. However, accessing Internet domains via WAP gateways is not prohibited. Therefore, there is a layer 4 switch (L4 switch) between the WAP gateway and the Internet domain, which provides a function similar to the URL whitelist filter (filter). Layer 4 switches prevent inappropriate access to Internet domains via WAP gateways.
本发明为了限制预付型用户存取网际网络网域,预付型用户会被赋予一专属的接入点名称用以存取GGSN。WAP闸道器的(预付型)IP地址由GGSN指派且防火墙与IP切割软件会负责阻止预付型用户存取网际网络网域。WAP闸道器为一预付型用户专属的WAP闸道器并且包含域名白名单。此域名白名单为允许预付型用户存取的GPRS免费网域的内容或网地列表。存取不在此域名白名单上的域名会被禁止。在GPRS免费网域上提供有一服务平台系统,该系统会与WAP闸道器沟通适当的域名白名单。In the present invention, in order to restrict the prepaid users from accessing the Internet domain, the prepaid users will be given an exclusive access point name for accessing the GGSN. The (prepaid) IP address of the WAP gateway is assigned by the GGSN and the firewall and IP cutting software will be responsible for preventing the prepaid users from accessing the Internet domain. The WAP gateway is a prepaid user-only WAP gateway and includes a whitelist of domain names. This domain name white list is the content or network list of GPRS free domains that are allowed to be accessed by prepaid users. Access to domains that are not on this domain whitelist will be blocked. A service platform system is provided on the GPRS free domain, which communicates the appropriate whitelist of domain names with the WAP gateway.
如上所述,经由WAP闸道器存取网际网络网域并不会被禁止。因此,介于WAP闸道器与网际网络网域存在有一第四层交换器,提供类似URL白名单过滤器的功能。第四层交换器可以阻止经由WAP闸道器对于网际网络网域不适当的存取。服务平台系统提供适当的URL白名单信息给第四层交换器。As mentioned above, accessing Internet domains via WAP gateways is not prohibited. Therefore, there exists a layer 4 switch between the WAP gateway and the Internet domain, which provides a function similar to a URL whitelist filter. Layer 4 switches prevent inappropriate access to Internet domains via WAP gateways. The service platform system provides appropriate URL whitelist information to the fourth layer switch.
月付型用户使用手持式装置做HTML浏览,WAP闸道器的(预付型)IP地址由GGSN指派。服务平台系统传送信息通知用户浏览HTML内容的封包将会被计费,之后才提供网际网络网域或GPRS免费网域的存取服务。Subscribers use handheld devices for HTML browsing, and the (prepaid) IP address of the WAP gateway is assigned by the GGSN. The service platform system sends a message to inform the user that the package of browsing the HTML content will be charged, and then the access service of the Internet domain or GPRS free domain is provided.
预付型用户使用手持式装置做HTML浏览,WAP闸道器的(预付型)IP地址由GGSN指派。无论经由WAP闸道器或直接经由GGSN存取网际网络网域都是被禁止的。此外,若欲经由GGSN直接存取GPRS免费网域时,会产生错误信息告知目标无法连接或存取HTML内容被拒。若存取的域名存在于预付型用户专属的WAP闸道器的域名白名单,则允许预付型用户对于GPRS免费网域的存取。反之,若存取的域名不存在于此域名白名单内,则存取会被禁止。由于经由WAP闸道器存取网际网络网域无法被禁止,因此具有URL白名单的第四层交换器被用来限制对于网际网络网域的存取。Prepaid users use handheld devices for HTML browsing, and the (prepaid) IP address of the WAP gateway is assigned by the GGSN. Access to Internet domains is prohibited whether via a WAP gateway or directly via the GGSN. In addition, if you want to directly access the GPRS free network domain through GGSN, an error message will be generated telling the target that it cannot be connected or that access to HTML content is refused. If the domain name to be accessed exists in the domain name white list of the WAP gateway dedicated to the prepaid user, then the prepaid user is allowed to access the GPRS free network domain. Conversely, if the accessed domain name does not exist in the domain name whitelist, access will be prohibited. Since access to Internet domains via WAP gateways cannot be prohibited, layer 4 switches with URL whitelists are used to restrict access to Internet domains.
