In one preferably embodiment, above-mentioned authentication information is subscriber identity information, for instance phone number, ID or user's name, facilitate various application server to authenticate for its user, detailed description of the invention can be acted on behalf of by AOG (20) process of this authentication.But it is general, what terminal (01) was carried in the process of communication is terminal identity information, for instance IMSI information, or device identification, if these information are as authentication information, it is necessary to the certification carrying out in advance complexity with the equipment such as one or more application server is mutual.It is further to note that, above-mentioned routing iinformation is the address of the AOG (20) that subscriber identity information belongs to, in a specific embodiment, for whole network, it is likely to there is multiple AOG (20), it is necessary to clearly provide the AOG of agency service for certain subscriber identity information.

With reference to Fig. 2 b, being the flow chart of a preferably embodiment, the system of earlier figures 2 performs following method:

201. subscriber management server (30) (such as registration management module (3011)) obtains and stores the corresponding relation of terminal identity information and subscriber identity information, and stores the address of the AOG (20) that subscriber identity information belongs to；

202. when AOE (101) (such as url management module (1011)) sends routing information request, subscriber management server (30) (such as routing iinformation module (3012)) is according to the terminal identity information in routing information request, and the corresponding relation of terminal identity information and subscriber identity information, the address of the AOG of subscriber identity information ownership is provided to AOE (101)；

203. when AOG (20) sends authentication information request, subscriber management server (30) (such as authentication information module (3013)) is according to the terminal identity information in authentication information request, and the corresponding relation of terminal identity information and subscriber identity information, provide subscriber identity information to AOG (20).

Concrete, above-mentioned acquisition also stores the process of corresponding relation of terminal identity information and subscriber identity information, it is possible to is before foregoing long-chain connects and do not set up, utilizes other possible communication ports to realize, for instance circuit domain communication port, or SMS channel.Concrete, can include but not limited to be reported subscriber management server (30) by terminal (10), or it is transmitted to subscriber management server (30) by other network equipments, it is also possible to be that subscriber management server (30) obtains to the mode of terminal (10) or other network device requests.

With reference to Fig. 3 a, preferably, for the communication system provided by operator, and specifically with terminal identity information for IMSI information, subscriber identity information is phone number is example, above-mentioned in setting up the process that long-chain connects, the subscriber management server (30) being positioned at network side provides routing iinformation to AOE (101), provides the process of authentication information to specifically include to AOG (20):

301, described AOE (101) is (such as, url management module (1011) on AOE (101)) when described permanent online engine AOE (101) starts or when detecting that the ISMI information in SIM is different from the information that last time registers, automatically sending reporting message to subscriber management server (30), described reporting message carries described IMSI information and described phone number.

The information that above-mentioned reporting message can send when being and need not establish the link between aforesaid AOE (101) and AOG (20), for instance the information of circuit domain, or the information of non-data link.More specifically, it is possible to be short message, or, aaa server the Radius notice etc. of reaching the standard grade forwarded.If being short message, then having only to carry IMSI information in the content, the system side of being sent to default setting is phone number, further saves data resource communication.

302, subscriber management server (30) (such as above-mentioned registration management module (3011)) according to receive as described in reporting message obtain as described in IMSI information and as described in phone number, store described phone number and the corresponding relation of described IMSI information.

303, optionally, owing to reporting message is likely to there is delay, after receiving this reporting message in order to ensure subscriber management server (30), carry out follow-up processing flow again, AOE (101) can carry out certain time delay.

304, AOE (101) (such as url management module (1011)) send routing information request to described subscriber management server (30), carry described IMSI information in this routing information request.

305, the phone number that subscriber management server (30) (such as routing iinformation module (3012)) finds correspondence according to the IMSI information in the routing information request received is (concrete, namely refer to search above-mentioned registration management module (3011)), further according to the AOG address of the phone number ownership prestored, return to the address of AOG (20) of this phone number ownership to described AOE (101).

After 306, AOE (101) (such as url management module (1011)) get the AOG information of ownership, initiating registration request to the AOG (20) of ownership, this registration request carries IMSI information.

Preferably, this registration request can also carry but be not limited to: the information of the chartered applications client in AOE (101), the mark of such as this application, the model of terminal, access network APN, operating system version, and version of AOE (101) etc..

307, after this AOG (20) receives registration request, after receiving the registration request of described AOE (101), it is judged that whether the IMSI information wherein comprised is registered in this AOG (20).

308. send authentication information request without registration then this AOG (20) to subscriber management server (30), the IMSI information in described registration request is carried in the request of described authentication information.

309, after subscriber management server (30) receives authentication information request, (concrete, for instance end message module 301) returns, to AOG (20), the end message phone number that IMSI information is corresponding.

310, AOG (20) (such as url management modules (2011) therein) judge it is the no service area as this AOG (20) of this phone number, and if not returning registration failure, flow process terminates.If belonging to the service area of this AOG (20), this AOG (20) (such as url management module (2011) therein) stores this phone number.Preferably, it is also possible to preserve other information carried in aforementioned log-on message, for instance terminal models, chartered applications client, etc. information.

311, after successful registration, AOG (20) (such as url management module (2011) therein) returns registration response to AOE (101) (such as url management module (1011)) in 310.

So far, AOE (101) is successfully established foregoing long-chain connects with the AOG (20) of ownership.This process make use of end message trusty in system, and user profile sets up long-chain and connects, system need not generate unique device id for each terminal (10) alternately by complicated, and utilize this unique device id to set up long-chain to connect, thus improve the safety that long-chain connects while simple flow.

When earlier figures 3a is illustrated that when terminal (10) starts or the ISMI information that detects in SIM is different from the information that last time registers, (SIM in terminal is replaced, can be understood as a new terminal (10)) set up couple process, concrete, comprise end message registration on AOG (20) and application message registration on AOG (20).In the other cases, in fact it could happen that terminal (10) itself, after AOG (20) registration, increases and installs or delete some application, it is necessary to take similar method to carry out the renewal of application message.With reference to Fig. 3 b, for the schematic flow sheet of more new opplication, AOG and application server that wherein AOG (20) is terminal (10) ownership place access the AOG on the ground system formed.In one object lesson, its flow process includes:

301b, terminal is installed (or unloading) and supports realize the applications client of AOI function alternately with AOE (101)；

302b, after applications client installation (or having unloaded rear), the application enrollment interface calling SDK carries out registering (unloading is considered as calling the application cancellation interface of SDK and nullifies)；

303b, AOE (101) call REG interface, and sending to terminal attaching ground AOG increases application request (for deleting application request during unloading)；

304b, application message corresponding for terminal is updated warehouse-in by terminal attaching ground AOG；

305b, terminal attaching ground AOG returns registration response (not nullifying response during unloading) to AOE (101)；

305b, the terminal attaching ground AOG ID according to the application of terminal to report, structure INFO reaches the standard grade notification message, is sent to the AOG gateway of application ownership, this notification message carrying mobile phone number of reaching the standard grade.(when unloaded for the notification message that rolls off the production line).

307b, application server accesses the AOG on ground, and phone number is converted to pseudo-code.

308b, application server accesses the AOG on ground, and notification message of reaching the standard grade (when unloaded for the notification message that rolls off the production line) is transmitted to application server, carries pseudo-code in message.

309b, application server returns push-notification-answer.

310b, application server accesses the AOG on ground and is transmitted to by push-notification-answer and former notifies initiator's AOG gateway.

Concrete, when terminal attaching AOG gateway is same gateway with application ownership AOG gateway, then need not the message of 306b, 310b step in the above-mentioned flow process forward process between gateway.

If terminal attaching ground AOG gateway is not same gateway with application ownership AOG gateway, and it is not set up therebetween effective connection, then before forwarding message, terminal attaching ground AOG gateway actively complete REG to application ownership place AOG gateway and register login process, then carry out message forwarding again.

In order to simplify the AOG intra-gateway handling process for REG message, in application installation procedure, AOG02 can not differentiate between what type of registration message (or logout message), still can by register flow path first after receiving message, confirm that IMSI makes a summary whether this AOG exists, if there is no to inquiry mobile phone number on subscriber management server 03, and according to whether phone number belongs to this AOG scope serviced, the content returning message to AOE (101) is confirmed.Only in simple application installation procedure, IMSI there will necessarily be, and number must belong to this AOG, will not go to other branch.

Optionally, the battery electric quantity of AOE (101) (such as battery cell monitoring module (1014) therein) monitoring terminal (10), when electricity is not enough to certain threshold value, (such as electricity only remains 10%, or 5%), if long-chain connects existence, then actively send disconnection and ask such as BYE), optionally, label can be increased, it was shown that be because electricity low and disconnect this long-chain and connect in disconnecting request.

By aforementioned possible embodiment, after long-chain connects disconnection, AOE (101) enters resting state, (can wait that AOG (20) is waken up by note), it is possible to save the electricity of terminal (10).Wherein, the mode that the various disconnection long-chains actively initiated by AOE (101) connect, further decrease unnecessary signaling waste, such as, after disconnecting, the AOG (20) of network side need not retransmit heartbeat message, additionally also further saves the battery electric quantity in terminal (10).

It is further to note that, long-chain between AOE (101) and AOG (20) connects when existing, the operating system forbidding terminal (10) is needed to enter resting state, to ensure the normal connection that long-chain connects, when long-chain between AOG connects disconnection, it is possible to the dormancy mechanism of recovery operation system.

With reference to Fig. 5 b, illustrate how to safeguard that this long-chain connects from the angle of AOG (20).It should be noted that, the AOG (20) that Fig. 5 b describes is in actual application process, it is probably a single server, it is possible to be divided into the AOG (20) of AOG (20) that terminal (10) (concrete AOE therein (101)) belongs to and one or more application server ownership as required.Wherein, optionally, as the latter (during two AOG), it is communicatively coupled between AOG (20) and the AOG (20) of one or more application server ownership that terminal (10) belongs to, the AOG (20) that terminal (10) belongs to is responsible for mutual with the AOE (101) in terminal (10), and the AOG (20) of one or more application server ownership is responsible for mutual with one or more application server.More specifically, internal structure from AOG (20), shown in Fig. 5 b 501 to 504 can be performed by termination management module (1021), and this termination management module (1021) may be located on the AOG (20) that terminal (10) belongs to；Step 500,505-508 can be performed by application management module (1022), and this application management module (1022) may be located on the AOG (20) of application server ownership.

Concrete, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 5 b, comprise the steps:

500-501, AOE (101) and AOG (20) successfully set up long-chain and connect.Complete REG register flow path (501) including AOE (101) with terminal attaching ground AOG, comprise the information of terminal and the information of applications client in terminal.Accordingly, one or more application server is also required to successfully be registered to AOG (20) (step 500), so, AOE (101) (i.e. terminal (10)) rolls off the production line notify follow-up to notify one or more application server.

502, AOE (101) successfully set up after long-chain connects with AOG (20), and AOG (20) actively initiates ACK heartbeat message to terminal, in order to safeguard that this long-chain connects.Preferably in embodiment, it is possible to configure the interval sending heartbeat message, i.e. eartbeat interval, and configuration time-out time control etc. according to the situation of network；

503, AOE (101) reply ACKRSP response, represent AOE (101) active state being in.

Long-chain is tapped into row maintenance according to following several situations by 504, AOG (20), includes but not limited to:

5041, when AOG (20) receives AOE (101) disconnection actively sent request, disconnect this long-chain and connect, do not retransmit heartbeat message；Concrete, it is possible to reference to the flow process shown in Fig. 5 a.

5042, when AOG (20) judges that exceeding certain time threshold value does not receive the data stream sent from this terminal (10) (AOE (101)), actively initiate to disconnect request (such as BYE), do not retransmit heartbeat message.Preferably in embodiment, this time threshold can configure, for instance, give tacit consent to 5 minutes, 10 minutes or 30 minutes.

5043, when AOG (20) judges to send after heartbeat message ACT, it does not have obtain the situation of the response of AOE (101) when exceeding certain frequency threshold value, actively initiate to disconnect request (such as BYE), do not retransmit heartbeat message.Preferably in embodiment, this frequency threshold value can configure, for instance, it is defaulted as 3 times, 4 times or 5 times etc..

5054, not shown, after 502, if both not received AOE (101) disconnection sent request actively do not send, to AOE (101), the request of disconnection yet, then according to heartbeat time interval, rule to AOE (101) send heartbeat message, in order to keep this long-chain to connect.

Preferably in embodiment, on the basis of the aforementioned maintenance connect for long-chain, AOG (20) (such as application management module (2012)) can also further presence to AOE (101), and the applications client on this AOE (101) is managed.Such as, optionally, 505, if AOG (20) is according to step 5041,5042, or the situations such as 5043 disconnect this long-chain and connect, then confirm that AOE (101) has been off, update locally stored AOE (101) whether presence is: off-line.

Optionally, 506, AOG (20) inquires about the forever online application client client information of the upper registration of AOE (101), if and need between one or more application server use pseudo-code interact, then the phone number of this AOE (101) of upper for AOG (20) storage is converted to pseudo-code by AOG (20) (such as application management module (2012)), and this pseudo-code for transmitting as subscriber identity information between AOG (20) and application server.Here, pseudo-code is a user at the internal system unique identity for some application.

Concrete, in order to protect privacy of user, some application can not reveal to application server (SP) phone number, at this moment needs to replace phone number by other mark.Common practices is for doing a summary according to by phone number and these information of other random number, and the summary calculated can be referred to as pseudo-code.Phone number and pseudo-code are one to one, and mapping relations can be retained in server side.But algorithm is unidirectional, say, that relevant random parameter will not be sent to application server (SP), thus application server (SP) counter can not release phone number by pseudo-code.One or more application server (SP) can identify user by pseudo-code when sending downstream message, such as can be inquired the phone number of correspondence by pseudo-code in server side, then message can be routed to correct user.

More specifically, pseudo-code is application level, may specify that some application enables pseudo-code function, and pseudo-code function is closed in some application.If application management module (2012) specifies in the controlled attribute of application needs transmission pseudo-code, then need for having mutual phone number to generate pseudo-code with this application, and, safeguard the corresponding relation of subscriber phone number and pseudo-code.In one example, the method for the pseudo-code of generation is: pseudo-code=HASH (MSISDN, Time, APPID, Random) wherein: HASH is hash algorithm, for instance adopt MD5 algorithm；MSISDN is user mobile phone number；Time: timestamp, for instance adopt YYYYMMDDHH24MISS form；APPID is application identities；Random is random number.For the phone number specified and certain application, pseudo-code only generates once in systems, throughout one's life effectively.Concrete, when needs are converted to pseudo-code by phone number, first system does conjunctive query local data base according to phone number and application ID, can not find out pseudo-code, then proves and use this application first, then generate pseudo-code with above-mentioned algorithm.When needing the conversion by pseudo-code to phone number, AOG (20) inquires about local data base, inquires about unsuccessfully, then prove the pseudo-code mistake that application is specified.During successful inquiring, being mated by the APPID of the APPID in application message with local pseudo-code data base, the match is successful, then it is assumed that pseudo-code check success.

Optionally, 507AOG (20) constructs the notification message that rolls off the production line and issues one or more application server, comprises pseudo-code in this notification message that rolls off the production line.

Accordingly, 508, one or more application server can return push-notification-answer after receiving the notification message that rolls off the production line.

Concrete, if AOG (20) is a server, then, this AOG (20) oneself performs above-mentioned steps 506,507；The system that the AOG (20) of the AOG (20) that if AOG (20) is AOE (101) to be belonged to and one or more application server ownership forms, the AOG (20) that then AOE (101) belongs to sends the AOG (20) that the notification message that rolls off the production line comprising phone number belongs to one or more application server, this phone number is converted to pseudo-code by the AOG (20) belonged to by one or more application server, and the notification message that rolls off the production line comprising pseudo-code is sent to one or more application server.

Based on above-mentioned various possible embodiments, after long-chain connects disconnection, AOE (101) can wait that AOG (20) is waken up by note, starts against this long-chain and connects.Concrete can be realized by system as shown in Figure 6, it is such as " note pushing module (2015) " in AOG (20), " note processing module (1013) " in AOE (101), " application wake module (1015) " etc. realizes.
