Method and apparatus for controlling issuance of packet data protocol context

摘要

A method and an apparatus for controlling issuance of a PDP context. The method includes: receiving a GPRS location updating request of a user sent by an SGSN; acquiring, according to the GPRS location updating request, an issuance control condition of a PDP context to which the user has subscribed; and determining, according to the issuance control condition, whether to send the PDP context to the SGSN. According to the method and the apparatus for controlling issuance of a PDP context in the embodiments of the present invention, issuance of a PDP context is controlled based on an issuance control condition of the PDP context, which can avoid generation of unnecessary traffic, improve service experience of a user, and reduce the customer service workload of an operator, thereby lowering the operating cost of the operator.

主权项

1. A method for controlling issuance of a packet data protocol (PDP) context, comprising:
receiving a general packet radio service (GPRS) location updating request of a user sent by a serving general packet radio service support node (SGSN); acquiring, according to the GPRS location updating request, an issuance control condition of a PDP context; and determining, according to the issuance control condition, whether to send the PDP context to the SGSN, wherein acquiring the issuance control condition of the PDP context comprises:
determining, according to an identity (ID) of the SGSN that is carried in the GPRS location updating request, the network the user currently accesses; andacquiring the issuance control condition according to the network the user currently accesses, wherein the issuance control condition is used to indicate PDP contexts supported by the network the user currently accesses, and wherein determining whether to send the PDP context to the SGSN comprises determining, according to the PDP contexts supported by the network the user currently accesses, whether to send the PDP context to the SGSN.
