## Abstract

An access management method, device and system are disclosed. It relates to the field of communication; and the problem that the existing update mechanism of an AID and RID mapping relationship table has a low reliability and influences the network working efficiency is solved. The method includes: when detecting that an MN accessing an ASR is offline, the ASR querying a local AID and Routing Identity RID mapping table, and determining a correspondent node of the offline MN; and the ASR sending a mapping table entry update message to an ILR and an ISR and an ASR where the correspondent node is located, and setting an RID in a mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to be NULL, which represents that the MN does not access the ASR currently.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An access management method, comprising:
when detecting that a Mobile Node (MN) accessing an Access Switching Router (ASR) is offline, the ASR querying a local Access Identity (AID) and Routing Identity (RID) mapping table, and determining a correspondent node of the offline MN; and
the ASR sending a mapping table entry update message to an Information Logging Router (ILR) and an Internet Interface Service Router (ISR) and an ASR where the correspondent node is located, and setting an RID in a mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to be NULL, which represents that the MN does not access the ASR currently.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The access management method according to claim 1, further comprising:
the MN reaccessing any ASR, the ASR registering a new mapping table entry to the ILR, and establishing a mapping relationship between an RID of the ASR and an AID of the MN.

### Claim 3

An access management method, comprising:
receiving a mapping table entry update message sent by an ASR, wherein, the mapping table entry update message indicates to set an RID in a mapping table entry corresponding to an MN to be NULL, which represents that the MN does not access the ASR currently;
updating the locally stored RID in the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to be NULL; and
when an RID corresponding to a destination AID of a locally received message is NULL, discarding the message.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The access management method according to claim 3, wherein, receiving a mapping table entry update message sent by an ASR is:
an ISR and/or other ASRs except the ASR receiving the mapping table entry update message sent by the ASR.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The access management method according to claim 4, wherein, after a step of updating the locally stored RID corresponding to the AID corresponding to the MN to be NULL, the method further comprises:
setting an aging timer for the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN, and starting timing after updating the mapping table entry; and
after the aging timer times out, locally deleting the mapping table entry.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The access management method according to claim 4, wherein, the method further comprises:
when a mapping table entry corresponding to the destination AID of the received message is not found, sending a message for requesting the mapping table entry corresponding to the destination AID to an ILR; and
receiving the mapping table entry corresponding to the destination AID of the message returned by the ILR.

### Claim 7 (depends on 4)

The access management method according to claim 4, wherein, the method further comprises:
when a mapping table entry corresponding to the destination AID of the received message is not found, sending a message for requesting the mapping table entry corresponding to the destination AID to an ILR; and
when the ILR replies that the mapping table entry corresponding to the destination AID does not exist, generating a temporary mapping table entry of the destination AID, setting the RID corresponding to the destination AID to be NULL, and setting an aging timer for the temporary mapping table entry.

### Claim 8

An access management method, comprising:
an ILR receiving a mapping table entry update message sent by an ASR, wherein, the mapping table entry update message indicates to set an RID in a mapping table entry corresponding to an MN to be NULL, which represents that the MN does not access the ASR currently;
updating the locally stored RID in the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to be NULL; and
when a message for requesting the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN is received, sending a response message, and carrying the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN in the response message, wherein, the RID recorded in the mapping table entry is NULL.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The access management method according to claim 8, further comprising:
the ILR receiving a mapping table entry update message sent by an ASR which the MN reaccesses, wherein, a mapping table entry recording a mapping relationship between an AID of the MN and an RID of the reaccessed ASR is included in the mapping table entry update message; and
the ILR updating the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to the mapping table entry in the mapping table entry update message, and informing an ISR and all the ASRs of a new mapping table entry corresponding to the MN.

### Claim 18

An access management system, comprising: a first access management device, a second access management device and a third access management device;
the first access management device is configured to: when detecting that an MN accessing the first access management device is offline, query a local AID and RID mapping table, determine a correspondent node of the offline MN, send a mapping table entry update message to the second access management device and the third access management device, and set an RID in a mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to be NULL, which represents that the MN does not access an ASR currently; and
the second access management device is configured to: receive the mapping table entry update message sent by the first access management device, update the locally stored RID in the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to be NULL, and when an RID corresponding to a destination AID of a locally received message is NULL, discard the message; and
the third access management device is configured to: receive the mapping table entry update message sent by the first access management device, update the locally stored RID in the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN to be NULL, and when a message for requesting the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN is received, send a response message, and carry the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN in the response message, wherein, the RID recorded in the mapping table entry is NULL.

### Claim 19 (depends on 18)

The access management system according to claim 18, wherein,
the second access management device is further configured to: set an aging timer for the mapping table entry corresponding to the MN, and start timing after updating the mapping table entry, and after the aging timer times out, locally delete the mapping table entry.

### Claim 20 (depends on 19)
