Abstract: Analyzed the authorization mechanism of media layer,control layer and application layer in IMS.To the problem of overhead of Cross-Domain authorization when UE roaming in IMS,proposed a Cross-Domain trust mechanism of the control layer in IMS.The Cross-Domain trust mechanism added four functional modules which are trust certificate database,certificate directory,assertion generator and tag extractor.The trust mechanism realized the single-authorization strategy to UE,and reduced the cost of repeat authorization.Using Open SER realized the function of each entity in IMS and built a simple simulation network,and then did simulation of Cross-Domain trust mechanism in the network.The simulation result shows that the Cross-Domain trust mechanism reduces 0.417 7 s of time cost.

Key words: IP Multimedia Subsystem(IMS), Cross-Domain security, trust mechanism, cost

摘要: 分析了IMS中媒体层、控制层和应用层的认证机制,针对IMS用户漫游时跨域认证造成开销过大的问题,在IMS控制层提出了一种跨域信任机制。该机制通过在HSS和S-CSCF中增加信任证书数据库、证书目录、声明发生器和标签提取器四个功能模块,实现了用户漫游时的单次认证策略,减小了因重复认证造成的开销。利用Open SER实现了IMS中各个实体的功能,搭建了简易的IMS仿真环境,然后在仿真网络中对跨域信任机制进行验证。仿真结果表明,跨域信任机制减少了0.417 7 s的时间开销。
