METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING TOPOLOGY OF NETWORK, NETWORK MONITORING SYSTEM, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To link individual S1-MME interfaces, SCTP associations, and MME IP addresses to a particular MME in the network topology list, with respect to network node identification in a telecommunication network.SOLUTION: Using authentication messages carried on S6a and S1-MME interfaces, the monitoring system links the individual S6a interface and an S6a interface IP address to a particular MME in the network topology list and creates one or more HSS node entries in the network topology list. The monitoring system also creates eNodeB, S-GW, and PDN-GW nodes in the network topology list and links them to IP addresses and X2, S11, and S5/S8 interfaces.
