摘要： A method and a system for exercising policy control, a policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF), and a policy control and charging rules function (PCRF) are provided, which can solve the problem that no policy control can be exercised over application service flows without an application function (AF). The method includes of the following steps: a PCRF receiving information about an application event sent by a PCEF; and the PCRF generating a control policy for a service flow of the application according to the information about the application event, and delivering the control policy to the PCEF. In the present invention, the PCEF sends the obtained information about the application event to the PCRF, so that even when no AF is involved, the PCRF can still generate a control policy according to policy contexts including the information about the application event and the like, so as to exercise an effective policy control over the QoS guarantee, charging and gating of the service flow, thus meeting the requirements of exercising the policy control over data applications with no AF being involved.

Flow identifier information such as a 5-tuple is generated for a signaling IP flow and a media IP flow so as to unify a mechanism for reporting a signaling path status and a mechanism for reporting a bearer event of a media IP flow, so that the mechanism for reporting a signaling path status is not limited by the parameter of Flow Usage, the PDP context with a signaling tag, thereby establishing corresponding PCC rules for signaling and the association between a signaling IP flow and a bearer. A method for reporting a signaling path status is further provided in the invention. In the method, for a default PDP context or a PDP context of a signaling IP flow, the predefined PCC rules are activated or signaling PCC rules generated in accordance with an Application Function address are installed, thereby an IP signaling path status is reported in accordance with rule names of the predefine PCC rules or the signaling PCC rules.

摘要： A method for obtaining capabilities of a Policy and Charging Enforcement Function (PCEF) includes these steps: a Policy Control and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) obtains capability information of the PCEF; and the PCRF performs processing according to the capability information. A PCRF is also disclosed. With the present disclosure, the PCEF reports its capabilities in advance so that the PCRF makes policy decisions for a service or subscribes to appropriate application events from the PCEF when it knows the capabilities of the PCEF. This avoids possible subscription errors and decision failures arising when the PCRF is unable to know the capabilities of the PCEF.
