METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MEDIERE RESOURCE SUPPORT

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for providing a media resource, and belongs to fields of network communication. The method includes: receiving by a router an access request, requesting for obtaining a specific media resource, sent from a terminal device; querying whether there is a media resource stored in the router corresponding to a data identifier, according to the data identifier carried in the access request; and providing the media resource stored in the router to the terminal device if the media resource corresponding to the data identifier is stored in the router. According to the present disclosure, it is solved a problem that network traffic may be wasted due to repeated forwarding of a same media resource accessing request to an extranet server from the router receiving the same as well as repeated transmission of a same media resource from the extranet server and, thus the network traffic can be saved.
