A method for managing a filter rule, comprising:
- receiving, by a Media Gateway (MG), a processing message sent by a Media Gateway Controller (MGC);
- and
- maintaining, by the MG, a packet filter rule context according to the processing message, wherein the packet filter rule context comprises a filter rule for filtering a packet received or sent by the MG, and the processing message comprises a message for creating, modifying or deleting the packet filter rule context.
A Media Gateway (MG), comprising:
- a context processing unit, configured to maintain a packet filter rule context according to a processing message sent by a Media Gateway Controller (MGC), wherein the packet filter rule context comprises a filter rule for filtering a packet received or sent by the MG, and the processing message may be a message for creating, modifying or deleting the packet filter rule context;
- and
- a filtering unit, configured to filter the packet received or sent by the MG according to the filter rule in the packet filter rule context.
A network system, comprising:
- a Media Gateway Controller (MGC), configured to send a processing message to a Media Gateway (MG);
- and
- the MG, configured to maintain a packet filter rule context according to the processing message sent by the MGC, and filter a packet received or sent by the MG according to filter rule in the packet filter rule context, wherein the packet filter rule context comprises a filter rule for filtering the packet received or sent by the MG, and the processing message may be a message for creating, modifying or deleting the packet filter rule context.
