Abstract
A switching control method includes: receiving a trigger message for triggering a service scheduling server to reschedule a service server for user equipment; rescheduling, in response to the trigger message, the service server for the user equipment; transmitting an impact routing request to a core network accessed by the user equipment, the impact routing request being used for triggering the core network to change a user plane path of the user equipment; and transmitting an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the rescheduled service server to the user equipment, to trigger the user equipment to switch a currently accessed service server to the rescheduled service server.
Claims20
A switching control method, performed by a service scheduling server, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a network exposure function (NEF) through a second application function (AF), a trigger message for triggering the service scheduling server to reschedule a service server for a user equipment, wherein the user equipment accesses a first edge service server and obtains an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the service scheduling server from the first edge service server, and the trigger message is transmitted by the NEF in response to receiving a confirmation message from the first edge service server through a first AF;
- rescheduling, in response to the trigger message, a second edge service server for the user equipment;
- transmitting an impact routing request to the NEF through the second AF, the impact routing request being further transmitted by the NEF to a session management function (SMF), wherein the SMF triggers to change a user plane path of the user equipment in a core network accessed by the user equipment;
- and
- transmitting, in response to a service scheduling request by the user equipment, an IP address of the second edge service server to the user equipment, to trigger the user equipment to switch from the first edge service server to the second edge service server.
A switching control apparatus in a service scheduling server, comprising:
- a memory storing computer program instructions;
- and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the computer program instructions and perform:
- receiving, from a network exposure function (NEF) through a second application function (AF), a trigger message for triggering the service scheduling server to reschedule a service server for a user equipment, wherein the user equipment accesses a first edge service server and obtains an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the service scheduling server from the first edge service server, and the trigger message is transmitted by the NEF in response to receiving a confirmation message from the first edge service server through a first AF;
- rescheduling, in response to the trigger message, a second edge service server for the user equipment;
- transmitting an impact routing request to the NEF through the second AF, the impact routing request being further transmitted by the NEF to a session management function (SMF), wherein the SMF triggers to change a user plane path of the user equipment in a core network accessed by the user equipment;
- and
- transmitting, in response to a service scheduling request by the user equipment, an IP address of the second edge service server to the user equipment, to trigger the user equipment to switch from the first edge service server to the second edge service server.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer program instructions executable by at least one processor of a service scheduling server to perform:
- receiving, from a network exposure function (NEF) through a second application function (AF), a trigger message for triggering the service scheduling server to reschedule a service server for a user equipment, wherein the user equipment accesses a first edge service server and obtains an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the service scheduling server from the first edge service server, and the trigger message is transmitted by the NEF in response to receiving a confirmation message from the first edge service server through a first AF;
- rescheduling, in response to the trigger message, a second edge service server for the user equipment;
- transmitting an impact routing request to the NEF through the second AF, the impact routing request being further transmitted by the NEF to a session management function (SMF), wherein the SMF triggers to change a user plane path of the user equipment in a core network accessed by the user equipment;
- and
- transmitting, in response to a service scheduling request by the user equipment, an IP address of the second edge service server to the user equipment, to trigger the user equipment to switch from the first edge service server to the second edge service server.
