Method for Communication between Femto Access Points and Femto Access Point

摘要

A method for communication between femto access points (Aps) and a femto AP is presented. The method includes creating, by a first femto AP with a key server (KS), a first tunnel between the first femto AP and the KS, and downloading, by the first femto AP, a key as a first key and an access control list (ACL) from the KS through the first tunnel, wherein the ACL is configured to indicate a data flow access rule between the first femto AP and a second femto AP; encrypting, by the first femto AP, first data using the first key to obtain encrypted first data, and sending the encrypted first data to the second femto AP according to the data flow access rule indicated by the ACL, so that the second femto AP decrypts the encrypted first data using a second key.

1. A method for communication between femto access points (APs), comprising:
creating, by a first femto AP with a key server (KS), a first tunnel between the first femto AP and the KS; downloading, by the first femto AP, a key as a first key and an access control list (ACL) from the KS through the first tunnel, wherein the ACL is configured to indicate a data flow access rule between the first femto AP and a second femto AP; encrypting, by the first femto AP, first data using the first key to obtain encrypted first data; and sending the encrypted first data to the second femto AP according to the data flow access rule indicated by the ACL, such that the second femto AP decrypts the encrypted first data using a second key, wherein, the second key is the key downloaded by the second femto AP from the KS through a second tunnel that is created between the second femto AP and the KS.
