Abstract

A method and an apparatus for accessing a website. A specific implementation of the method includes: receiving an access request for the website, the access request comprising a source network address of the access request and a network address of the website; detecting whether the source network address and the network address of the website belong to a same Internet service provider; determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set in response to detecting the source network address and the network address of the website not belonging to the same Internet service provider, the target inter-network node being an inter-network node connecting a network of an Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and a network of an Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs; and transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node. This implementation improves the speed for accessing a website.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for accessing a web site, comprising:
receiving an access request for the website, the access request comprising a source network address of the access request and a network address of the website;
detecting whether the source network address and the network address of the website belong to a same Internet service provider;
determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set in response to detecting the source network address and the network address of the website not belonging to the same Internet service provider, the target inter-network node being an inter-network node connecting a network of an Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and a network of an Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs; and
transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node,
wherein the determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set comprises:
selecting, from the preset inter-network node set, inter-network nodes connecting the network of the Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and the network of the Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs, to compose a candidate target inter-network node set;
acquiring a log of each candidate target inter-network node in the candidate target inter-network node set
calculating an access speed of accessing the website via the each candidate target inter-network node by means of data traffic information recorded in the acquired log; and
selecting a predetermined number of candidate target inter-network nodes as the target inter-network nodes according to an order of the access speed from high to low.

2. The method for accessing a website according to claim 1 , wherein before transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node, the method further comprises:
adding a counter into an HTTP header of the access request, an initial value of the counter being associated with a number of nodes through which the access request will pass, and a value of the counter decreasing progressively every time one node is passed.

3. The method for accessing a website according to claim 1 , wherein the transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node comprises:
transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node through Dedicated Internet Access.

4. The method for accessing a website according to claim 1 , wherein the transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node comprises:
transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node through IP tunneling which is a protocol for interconnecting networks.

5. The method for accessing a website according to claim 1 , wherein the preset inter-network node is a Border Gateway Protocol node.

6. The method for accessing a website according to claim 1 , wherein the preset inter-network node is a dual-line node of an Internet service provider.

7. A device, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory,
the memory storing computer-readable instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
receiving an access request for the website, the access request comprising a source network address of the access request and a network address of the website;
detecting whether the source network address and the network address of the website belong to a same Internet service provider;
determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set in response to detecting the source network address and the network address of the website not belonging to the same Internet service provider, the target inter-network node being an inter-network node connecting a network of an Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and a network of an Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs; and
transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node,
wherein the determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set comprises:
selecting, from the preset inter-network node set, inter-network nodes connecting the network of the Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and the network of the Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs, to compose a candidate target inter-network node set;
acquiring a log of each candidate target inter-network node in the candidate target inter-network node set
calculating an access speed of accessing the website via the each candidate target inter-network node by means of data traffic information recorded in the acquired log; and
selecting a predetermined number of candidate target inter-network nodes as the target inter-network nodes according to an order of the access speed from high to low.

8. The device according to claim 7 , wherein before transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node, the operations further comprises:
adding a counter into an HTTP header of the access request, an initial value of the counter being associated with a number of nodes through which the access request will pass, and a value of the counter decreasing progressively every time one node is passed.

9. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node comprises:
transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node through Dedicated Internet Access.

10. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node comprises:
transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node through IP tunneling which is a protocol for interconnecting networks.

11. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the preset inter-network node is a Border Gateway Protocol node.

12. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the preset inter-network node is a dual-line node of an Internet service provider.

13. A non-transitory computer storage medium, storing computer-readable instructions, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
receiving an access request for the website, the access request comprising a source network address of the access request and a network address of the website;
detecting whether the source network address and the network address of the website belong to a same Internet service provider;
determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set in response to detecting the source network address and the network address of the website not belonging to the same Internet service provider, the target inter-network node being an inter-network node connecting a network of an Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and a network of an Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs; and
transmitting the access request to the target inter-network node,
wherein the determining a target inter-network node from a preset inter-network node set comprises:
selecting, from the preset inter-network node set, inter-network nodes connecting the network of the Internet service provider to which the source network address belongs and the network of the Internet service provider to which the network address of the website belongs, to compose a candidate target inter-network node set;
acquiring a log of each candidate target inter-network node in the candidate target inter-network node set;
calculating an
