Method and apparatus for obtaining traffic characteristic analysis result, and network side device

A method for scheduling service flow, comprising:

• sending, by a second network side device, a request message to a first network side device, wherein the request message carries identification information of a target service flow;
• receiving a traffic characteristic analysis result of the target service flow returned by the first network side device, wherein the traffic characteristic analysis result comprises:
• first indication information and second indication information, the first indication information indicates importance of the target service flow, and the second indication information indicates an application data unit to which the target service flow belongs;
• and
• scheduling the target service flow based on the traffic characteristic analysis result of the target service flow.

A network side device, wherein the network side device is a first network side device, comprising:

• a memory storing a computer program;
• and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the computer program to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a request message sent by a second network side device, wherein the request message carries identification information of a target service flow;
• obtaining traffic characteristic information of the target service flow from a communication network based on the identification information of the target service flow;
• obtaining a traffic characteristic analysis result of the target service flow based on the traffic characteristic information of the target service flow, wherein the traffic characteristic analysis result comprises:
• first indication information and second indication information, the first indication information indicates importance of the target service flow, and the second indication information indicates an application data unit to which the target service flow belongs;
• and
• sending the traffic characteristic analysis result of the target service flow to the second network side device or a third network side device, and instructing the second network side device or the third network side device to schedule the target service flow based on the traffic characteristic analysis result of the target service flow.
