Method and apparatus for performing communication in software-defined networking, and communications system
First Claim
1. A method for performing communication in software-defined networking, the method comprising:
- receiving a message sent by a network device and comprising a signaling message;
determining, according to a control policy, a matching condition that matches the message, wherein the control policy comprises the matching condition and operation information corresponding to the matching condition;
processing the message according to the operation information corresponding to the matching condition that matches the message; and
sending the processed message to the network device,wherein the operation information comprises information about at least one of the following operations;
peeling off a radio link message header of a message, performing, based on Internet Protocol (IP), IP packetization on message content of the message, and sending data obtained by performing the IP packetization;
peeling off a radio link message header of a message, and applying message content of the message;
peeling off an IP header of a message, performing, based on an air interface protocol, packetization on message content of the message, and sending data obtained by performing the packetization;
orpeeling off an IP header of a message, and applying message content of the message.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for performing communication in software-defined networking, and a communications system. The method includes: receiving a message sent by a network device, where the message includes a signaling message; determining, according to a control policy, a matching condition that matches the message, where the control policy includes a matching condition and operation information corresponding to the matching condition; processing the message according to the operation information corresponding to the matching condition that matches the message; and sending the processed message to the network device. According to the method and the apparatus for performing communication in software-defined networking, and the communications system in the present disclosure, a problem in the prior art that a control device serving as a network control center cannot communicate with a base station is resolved.
