Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a communication line or band allocation method and system. In particular, the present invention relates to a method and a system for reallocating a communication line or a band of a user-dedicated line network such as an optical VPN (Virtual Private Network) leased by a communication carrier.
[0002]
[Prior art]
When a user opens a dedicated line network such as an optical VPN, the dedicated line network is leased from a communication carrier. Generally, such a lease contract is a fixed amount regardless of the frequency with which the user uses the leased line network. Accordingly, the higher the frequency of use of the dedicated line network by the user, the higher the economic efficiency of the usage fee for the user. Conversely, the lower the frequency of use of the dedicated line network by the user, the lower the economical cost of the user. Efficiency gets worse.
[0003]
Further, in general, in such a lease contract, it is impossible to temporarily increase or decrease the bandwidth, so the user has to make a lease contract according to the maximum bandwidth to be used, and the usage time period of such a maximum bandwidth is If the time is very short, the user will have poor economic efficiency of the usage fee.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
As described above, conventionally, a user who leases a dedicated line network such as an optical VPN from a telecommunications carrier by leasing must pay a predetermined lease fee regardless of whether or not the communication line is actually used. If the use of the communication line is less than the plan, the lease of the user's private line network by lease becomes expensive. However, there is no means to reduce the lease fee of the user exclusive line network, which is expensive even if the user exclusive line network becomes vacant.
[0005]
In addition, even if the user wishes to use the leased line network temporarily rather than permanently, there is no way for the user to lease the leased line network in addition to signing a lease contract.
[0006]
As a means for solving such a conventional problem, a flexible reassignment process of a line by a carrier can be considered. However, the carrier must provide communication network equipment for the flexible reassignment process of the line itself. However, there are many unknown factors such as whether or not the reallocation process itself is satisfied and how much equipment should be prepared, and the reallocation process cannot be easily realized.
[0007]
The present invention has been made in such a background, and a telecommunications carrier flexibly reassigns a free communication line generated in a user-dedicated line network to another according to the user's request, so that the user It is an object of the present invention to provide a communication line or communication band allocating method and system that can reduce the risk of renting a large-capacity leased line network such as an optical VPN.
[0008]
Further, according to the present invention, a user who wishes to use a communication line temporarily can use a necessary communication line for a required period without concluding a lease contract for an expensive leased line network. It is an object of the present invention to provide a band allocation method and system.
[0009]
On the other hand, an object of the present invention is to provide a communication line or communication band allocating method and system in which a communication carrier can provide communication network resources as little as possible and use communication network resources effectively.
[0010]
Furthermore, at the request of the user renting the leased line network, the vacant line of the leased line network rented by the user is subject to the reassignment process, and the other users who want to use the communication line temporarily are provided with the user lease line. By diverting an unused line, reallocation processing can be performed without installing special equipment in the telecommunications carrier, and since the telecommunications carrier does not need to install special equipment, the reallocation processing is performed. To provide a communication line or communication band allocating method and system capable of performing a reallocation process without causing any particular loss to a communication carrier even without participation of a communication line provider and a provider in the communication network. Aim.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
A first aspect of the present invention is a communication line allocating method when a communication carrier allocates a rent communication line to a user. The telecommunications carrier device that automatically manages the communication line is installed by a first user to which a part or the entirety of the rent communication line is assigned and transmitted from a user terminal connected to the rent communication line. Receiving free time and ground information that does not use part or all of the rental communication line, and installing the received free time and ground information by one or more second users different from the first user Broadcasting to one or more other user terminals connected to the rent communication line; and use request information and desired use of the rent communication line transmitted from the other user terminal. Receiving the money information and totalizing the received desired use information and the received usage fee information; and the other user who transmitted the usage fee information having the highest usage fee based on the result of the totaling step. Selecting the second user of the terminal, and moving a part or all of the rented communication line allocated to the first user to the selected second user, and moving the quota Adding the usage fee of part or all of the leased communication line allocated by the step of charging to the billing information of the second user who uses the leased communication line and calculating the usage fee from the billing information of the first user. And deducting an amount corresponding to part or all of the above.
[0012]
In this way, the user of the user terminal notifies the telecommunications carrier device that there is a free line in the leased telecommunications line to which the user has made a lease contract, and the telecommunications carrier device notifies the plurality of other user terminals of this fact. Is broadcasted, and if there is a use request, the available line is allocated to the user of the other user terminal who has requested use, thereby enabling effective use of network resources.
[0013]
In addition, in this way, at the request of the user who leases the leased line network, the vacant line of the leased line network leased by the user is subject to the reallocation process, and the user who wishes to use the communication line temporarily is notified to the user. By diverting a vacant line of the leased line network, reallocation processing can be performed without installing special equipment for the telecommunications carrier, and there is no need for the telecommunications carrier to install special equipment. Even if the communication line provider and the provider do not participate in the reallocation process, the reallocation process can be performed without causing any particular loss to the communication carrier.
[0014]
Also, at this time, a user who has a surplus line can get a rental fee again from a user who wants the line, so that economic efficiency can be improved for the user.
[0015]
The step of moving the assignment includes the step of moving a part or all of the lease communication line assigned to the first user to the second user only for a predetermined time within the free time. You can also do it. For example, within a day, a user whose communication line is available for a certain period of time is decided to lend a communication line to another user only during this period, so that the user can use his or her own communication line.
