For network elements of different standards, all that is needed is to develop different network element signaling tracking proxy modules to adapt network elements, which greatly saves operation and maintenance development costs. Preferred Embodiment 2 This embodiment provides a method for processing signaling tracking. The method in this embodiment is described in conjunction with each module in the system in the preferred embodiment 1. FIG. 8 is a signaling according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. A flowchart of the processing method of the tracking, as shown in FIG. 8, the method includes the following steps S802 to S814. Step S802: The uplink and downlink message processing module establishes a chain to the designated network element to establish a communication link. Step S804: The tracking task management module loads the specified tracking task template, and performs parsing, and automatically generates a GUI interface for human-computer interaction. Step S806: The tracking task management module reads the tracking task request command input on the GUI interface, and assembles the message into a unified message format and sends the message to the uplink and downlink message processing module. Step S808: After receiving the tracking task request (downlink message), the uplink and downlink message processing module sends the signaling tracking proxy module to the network element side.

The third embodiment of the present invention provides a method for processing signaling tracking. In this embodiment, the tracking task management module, the signaling information display module, and the uplink and downlink message processing module are deployed on a separate signaling tracking server. The network element deploys a network element signaling tracking proxy module, which can directly invoke the signaling tracking interface provided by the network element. It should be noted that, in the embodiment, the modules on the signaling tracking server use a unified format message to perform interaction, which is independent of the format of the network element to which the network element is connected and the provided signaling tracking interface, thus ensuring signaling. Multiple network elements can be connected to the tracking server. The network element signaling tracking proxy module deployed on the NE side undertakes the task of interacting with the signaling tracking interface provided by the specific network element. For different network element devices, different network element signaling tracking proxy modules need to be developed to complete the signaling. Tracking the adaptation of the uplink and downlink messages of the server to the network element signaling tracking interface. The tracking task template is a series of template files. The format and content are determined by the operator of the wireless network and the provider of the network element device. Operators can define the tasks that need to be tracked in the template based on the business concerns of the wireless network they operate. For different standards, the template files can be separately formulated according to the system. For some multi-standard general tracking tasks (such as the 7th signaling tracking of the transport layer), a common common template can be developed. In this embodiment, a wireless network combining 2G (GSM) and 3G (UMTS) standards is taken as an example, and the RNC (Radio Network Controller) and the BSC (Base Station Controller) network element are described with reference to the drawings. The implementation of signaling tracking by the network element of the system. The partial structure format and the network element communication protocol used in this embodiment are as follows. It should be noted that the following description is only for the purpose of illustration, and is not intended to limit the technical solutions of the present application. For example: An external signaling tracking interface (MML command format) is provided on both the RNC network element and the BSC network element. The signaling tracking server communicates with the network element using the TCP/IP protocol. For example: In this embodiment, a tracking task template file (XML format) of a UMTS RNC is defined as follows:

</TASK> </TASK>

</TASKTYPE> </TASKTYPE>

</RNC> 该文件中，将跟踪任务分为几大类型，以 TASKTYPE表示，在每个大类型下面又分为不同的多个任务，以 TASK标签表示。每个 TASK任务中，包含了该任务的请求类型（如跟踪任务开始 (action="start")和停止 (action="stop")等）和对应的参数信息，每一个参数 (TASKARGU)还有一个过滤条件 (filter)属性,用户可定义相应的正则表达式来对输入的参数值做约束。下面对本实施例的步骤进行描述：步骤 S2: 跟踪任务管理模块载入上述的跟踪任务模板文件后（由用户选择后载入），自动生成展现任务信息和参数的 GUI界面供用户操作，一个人机交互的 GUI界面见图 3。步骤 S4:跟踪任务管理模块将人机交互界面上输入的任务请求发送到上下行消息处理模块。在本实施例中，传递的任务请求信息以 XML格式的字符流表示，示例如下： </RNC> In this file, the tracking tasks are divided into several types, represented by TASKTYPE, which are divided into different tasks under each large type, represented by TASK tags. Each TASK task contains the request type of the task (such as tracking task start (action="start") and stop (action="stop"), etc.) and corresponding parameter information, each parameter (TASKARGU) A filter attribute that allows the user to define a corresponding regular expression to constrain the input parameter values. The following describes the steps of the embodiment: Step S2: After the tracking task management module loads the above-mentioned tracking task template file (loaded by the user after selection), automatically generates a GUI interface for displaying task information and parameters for the user to operate, a person The GUI interface of the machine interaction is shown in Figure 3. Step S4: The tracking task management module sends the task request input on the human-computer interaction interface to the uplink and downlink message processing module. In this embodiment, the delivered task request information is represented by a character stream in an XML format, as follows:

</TASKNO> </TASKNO>

</TASK> 步骤 S6: 上下行消息处理模块根据任务请求中指定的网元 ID (本实施例中网元 ID为 1，为 RNC网元）将任务请求信息透传到对应网元的信令跟踪代理模块。步骤 S8: 网元的信令跟踪代理模块收到该字符流后，需要解析并适配网元提供的信令跟踪对外接口，并调用该接口将跟踪任务请求下达给网元。需要说明的是在一个无线网络中，网元设备可能由不同设备商提供，这样不同厂商，不同制式的网元设备提供的信令跟踪接口也不尽相同（如有 MML命令接口， C 语言定义的结口等不同形式）。信令跟踪代理模块需要对不同的接口进行适配。比较优的，信令跟踪代理模块的接口适配实施时可以使用硬编码实现，也可以通过定义信令跟踪服务器的消息接口和网元信令跟踪接口之间的映射来自动实现。在本实施例中，网元设备提供的信令跟踪接口为 MML命令形式。对应前面传递的任务跟踪请求，接口格式如下： uelcstart： taskno="35",ueid="460002157894012"；可以在信令跟踪代理模块中定义信令跟踪服务器发送的请求和网元接口之间的映射关系文件 (XML格式)，由信令跟踪代理模块根据该映射关系文件中定义的映射关系来实现从信令跟踪服务器发送请求到网元信令跟踪接口之间的自动转换。上例中的映射关系如下： </TASK> Step S6: The uplink and downlink message processing module transparently transmits the task request information to the signaling of the corresponding network element according to the network element ID specified in the task request (in this embodiment, the network element ID is 1 and is the RNC network element) Track the agent module. Step S8: After receiving the character stream, the signaling tracking proxy module of the network element needs to parse and adapt the signaling provided by the network element to track the external interface, and invoke the interface to send the tracking task request to the network element. It should be noted that in a wireless network, network element devices may be provided by different equipment vendors, so that signaling trace interfaces provided by different vendors and different types of network element devices are also different (if there is an MML command interface, C language definition) The knot is in different forms.) The signaling tracking proxy module needs to adapt different interfaces. Preferably, the interface adaptation of the signaling tracking proxy module can be implemented by hard coding, or can be automatically implemented by defining a mapping between the message interface of the signaling tracking server and the network element signaling tracking interface. In this embodiment, the signaling tracking interface provided by the network element device is in the form of an MML command. Corresponding to the task tracking request passed earlier, the interface format is as follows: uelcstart: taskno="35", ueid="460002157894012"; The mapping between the request sent by the signaling tracking server and the network element interface can be defined in the signaling tracking proxy module. The relationship file (XML format) is implemented by the signaling tracking proxy module to automatically convert from the signaling tracking server to the network element signaling tracking interface according to the mapping relationship defined in the mapping relationship file. The mapping relationship in the above example is as follows:

</taskmap> 步骤 S10: 在网元开始通过信令跟踪接口上报信令数据给信令跟踪代理模块后，信令跟踪代理模块会适配接口而转化为信令跟踪服务器识别的格式发送给信令跟踪服务器的上下行消息处理模块，实现原理同上。在本实施例中，上报给信令跟踪服务器的信令数据仍以 XML格式的字符流表示，可以采用格式： </taskmap> Step S10: After the network element starts to report signaling data to the signaling tracking proxy module through the signaling tracking interface, the signaling tracking proxy module adapts the interface and converts it into a format recognized by the signaling tracking server and sends the signal to the signaling Let the tracking server's uplink and downlink message processing module be implemented in the same way. In this embodiment, the signaling data reported to the signaling tracking server is still represented by a character stream in an XML format, and may be in a format:

4016001 C4C000110000002005D400200000119400300A142 4016001 C4C000110000002005D400200000119400300A142

</SIGMSG> 步骤 S12: 信令跟踪服务器的信令数据展示模块收到信令数据后，将其解析后展示到 GUI界面中供用户浏览。优选地，本实施例中使用了 XML格式作为通用的消息传递格式，是考虑到 XML 格式易于解析，信息层次在表达上更清晰一些。网元侧的信令跟踪代理模块需要适配网元所提供的对外信令跟踪接口。如在本实施例中，就需要开发针对 RNC网元和 BSC 网元信令跟踪对外接口的适配功能。需要说明的是，对于已在运维且并未实施本发明所描述装置和方法的无线网络，可以针对网络中管理的各制式网元开发并部署相应的信令跟踪代理模块，定义统一的跟踪任务模板，使用本发明所提出的系统和方法就能够实现网络中对多制式网元的统一跟踪管理。通过上述实施例，提供了信令跟踪方法及装置，通过信令跟踪服务器将用于对一个或多个网元进行信令跟踪操作的请求转换成预定的格式，使得信令跟踪服务器对一个或多个网元的信令跟踪操作的请求进行的统一，克服了相关技术中信令跟踪服务器在对一个或多个网元进行信令跟踪操作时需要同时对多个网元的接口格式的请求进行处理，导致运行维护的效率比较低的问题，然后将转换成预定格式的请求发送给对应的网元，并接收该请求的响应，从而实现了通过统一的信令格式实现对一个或多个网元进行信令跟踪操作，提高了运行维护的效率。需要说明的是，这些技术效果并不是上述所有的实施方式所具有的，有些技术效果是某些优选实施方式才能取得的。显然，本领域的技术人员应该明白，上述的本发明的各模块或各步骤可以用通用的计算装置来实现，它们可以集中在单个的计算装置上，或者分布在多个计算装置所组成的网络上，可选地，它们可以用计算装置可执行的程序代码来实现，从而可以将它们存储在存储装置中由计算装置来执行，或者将它们分别制作成各个集成电路模块，或者将它们中的多个模块或步骤制作成单个集成电路模块来实现。这样，本发明不限制于任何特定的硬件和软件结合。以上所述仅为本发明的优选实施例而已，并不用于限制本发明，对于本领域的技术人员来说，本发明可以有各种更改和变化。凡在本发明的精神和原则之内，所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等，均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。 </SIGMSG> Step S12: After receiving the signaling data, the signaling data display module of the signaling tracking server parses and displays it to the GUI interface for the user to browse. Preferably, the XML format is used as a general message delivery format in this embodiment, and the XML format is easy to parse, and the information hierarchy is clearer in expression. The signaling tracking proxy module on the NE side needs to adapt the external signaling tracking interface provided by the network element. As in this embodiment, it is necessary to develop an adaptation function for tracking the external interface for the RNC network element and the BSC network element signaling. It should be noted that, for a wireless network that has been operated and not implemented by the apparatus and method of the present invention, a corresponding signaling tracking proxy module may be developed and deployed for each standard network element managed in the network, and a unified tracking is defined. The task template can realize unified tracking management of multi-standard network elements in the network by using the system and method proposed by the present invention. Through the foregoing embodiment, a signaling tracking method and apparatus are provided, where a request for signaling tracking operation of one or more network elements is converted into a predetermined format by a signaling tracking server, so that the signaling tracking server is for one or Uniformity of requests for signaling tracking operations of multiple network elements, overcoming the signaling tracking server in the related art When performing signaling tracking operations on one or more network elements, the request for the interface format of multiple network elements needs to be processed at the same time, resulting in a problem of low efficiency of operation and maintenance, and then the request converted into the predetermined format is sent to the corresponding The network element receives the response of the request, thereby implementing signaling tracking operation on one or more network elements through a unified signaling format, thereby improving the efficiency of operation and maintenance. It should be noted that these technical effects are not all of the above embodiments, and some technical effects are obtained by some preferred embodiments. Obviously, those skilled in the art should understand that the above modules or steps of the present invention can be implemented by a general-purpose computing device, which can be concentrated on a single computing device or distributed over a network composed of multiple computing devices.
