First Claim
1. A method for anonymous communication, comprising:
- after receiving an anonymous communication request initiated by a terminal, a network allocating an anonymous identification identifier to the terminal, and recording a state of the terminal as an anonymous communication state;
when the terminal is in the anonymous communication state, an access gateway device where the terminal is located replacing a source access identifier in a first data message with the anonymous identification identifier responsive to receiving the first data message that has been transmitted from the terminal, and replacing the anonymous identification identifier in a second data message with the source access identifier of the terminal responsive to receiving the second data message that is being transmitted to the terminal;
wherein the method is applied in an identification identifier and locator separation network, the identification identifier and locator separation network is divided into an access network and a backbone network, the access network is located at edge of the backbone network and is responsible for accessing of the terminal, the backbone network is responsible for routing of the terminal, the access gateway device is located at a boundary point of the backbone network and the access network and interfaces with the access network and the backbone network; and
the source access identifier is used in the access network and always remains the same when the terminal moves, and the anonymous identification identifier is a new access identifier which is used in the backbone network;
wherein before the step of recording a state of the terminal as an anonymous communication state, the method further comprises;
when receiving the anonymous communication request, the access gateway device where the terminal is located initiating an authentication process to an authentication center, and recording the state of the terminal as the anonymous communication state after acknowledging that the terminal has access to an anonymous communication service; and
the method further comprising;
after receiving a request for canceling the anonymous communication from the terminal, the access gateway device where the terminal is located changing the state of the terminal from the anonymous communication state to a normal communication state.

Abstract
A method and a system for anonymous communication are disclosed in the present invention, which are applied in an architecture network with Identification (ID) identifier and locator separation. The method includes: after receiving an anonymous communication request initiated by a terminal, the network allocating an anonymous ID identifier to the terminal, and recording a state of the terminal as an anonymous communication state; when the terminal is in the anonymous communication state, an access gateway device where the terminal is located replacing a source access identifier in data message transmitted by the terminal with the anonymous ID identifier while receiving the data message; and replacing an anonymous ID identifier in data message transmitted to the terminal with the access identifier of the terminal while receiving the data message transmitted to the terminal.
