US 2012/0278874 A1 · METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ACCESSING NETWORK THROUGH PUBLIC EQUIPMENT

Abstract

A method and system for accessing to a network through public equipment are provided in the invention. The method includes: after an access service node (ASN) receives a network access request message from a. User on public equipment, the ASN sending the network access request message to an authentication center (AC), wherein, the network access request message comprises at least the user's account and password; the AC verifying validity of the account and the password, if the verification is passed, sending the user's access identifier (AID) to the ASN; and after the ASN receives said user's AID, the ASN sending the user's AID to the public equipment, the public equipment taking the user's AID as a virtual AID and using the virtual AID to send and receive user's messages. By the present invention, users who access to the network through the public equipment can be tracked and traced effectively.

A system for accessing to a network on public equipment, which is applied to a subscriber identifier and locator separation network, the system comprising:

access service nodes (ASNs), public equipment and an Authentication Center (AC), wherein,
said ASN is set to, after receiving a network access request message sent by a user on the public equipment, send the network access request message to the AC, wherein, the network access request message comprises at least the user's account and password;
and after said user's access identifier (AID) sent by the AC is received, send the user's AID to the public equipment;
said AC is set to, after the user's network access request message is received, verify validity of said account and password in the request message, if the verification is passed, send the user's AID to the ASN;
the public equipment is set to, send the network access request message to the ASN according to the account and password input by the user, and after receiving the user's AID sent by the ASN, take the user's AID as a virtual AID and use the virtual AID to send and receive the user's messages.
