  • Patent number: 11412371
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system for disaster recovery of an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), where the method includes: triggering a redundant Call Session Control Function (CSCF); obtaining, by the redundant CSCF, user backup data of registered IMS Private User Identities (IMPIs) that are associated with IMPUs and user service configuration data of IMS Public User Identities (IMPUs) in an IMS subscription from a network storage entity of a user; and recovering, by the redundant CSCF, a corresponding service according to the obtained user backup data of the registered IMPIs and user service configuration data of the IMPUs in the IMS subscription. Hence, the one-IMPU multi-IMPI, one-IMPI multi-IMPU, or multi-IMPI multi-IMPU service can be recovered, and this enables the user to have better service continuity experiences.

  • Patent number: 8719617
    Abstract: A method for realizing an Internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) disaster tolerance includes the steps as follows. An S-CSCF receives a user registration, and backs up necessary data which is required when a user service processing is restored on a storage entity in a network. An I-CSCF of user's home domain receives a service request of the user, and if it is found that the S-CSCF currently providing a service for the user fails, assigns a new S-CSCF to the user, and forwards the service request to the newly assigned S-CSCF. The newly assigned S-CSCF interrogates and acquires subscription data of the user and the necessary data backed up by the original S-CSCF from the storage entity, and then restores the user service processing according to the subscription data and the backup data. A device for realizing an IMS disaster tolerance is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20120113815
    Abstract: A method, a device and a system for evaluating network reliability are disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention. The method includes: determining an analysis object by acquiring network topology information; acquiring a network failure mode of the analysis object; and analyzing and evaluating reliability of the analysis object in a hierarchical and overall way with respect to the failure mode. As the concept of a hierarchical analysis is introduced into the analysis, analysis properties of analysis objects (for example, a node and a connection) are divided according to hierarchies, so that the network is effectively decomposed, an overall decomposing analysis is ensured, and the difficulty of the analysis is reduced.
