System and method of active/standby protection for user-side multicast services and routing device
The present invention relates to a routing device. The routing device and at least one second routing device are both connected to a convergence device. The routing device is an active device and includes a user information synchronizing backup module configured to synchronize multicast service user information to the at least one second routing device in real time through the convergence device. In the present invention, an active routing device and a standby routing device are configured on the user-side, and user information is synchronized to the standby routing device in real time. Therefore, upon active/standby switching, user identification and authentication are not affected, whereby the validity of user traffic and channel is ensured. Furthermore, economic benefits of an operator are guaranteed. Moreover, with the present invention, switching speed is accelerated, service continuity is ensured, and Quality of Experience of a user is improved.
