The invention discloses a
network connection method, device and
system, and the method comprises the steps that a main
service gateway receives a media bearer building notification transmitted by a mobile management entity; the main
service gateway activates the
MAC address of a media interface after the main
service gateway receives the media bearer building notification; the main service gatewayis restarted when the main service gateway detects a fault of a
media channel, so as to enable the mobile management entity to notify a standby service gateway of activating the
MAC address after themobile management entity detects the fault; a
base station builds the
media channel with the standby service gateway; the
base station notifies the mobile management entity of the successful buildingof the
media channel, thereby achieving a purpose that a standby media channel is in seamless connection with a fault media channel. A user basically cannot perceive the business interruption, and anexternal
network element cannot sense the change of the media channel. There is no need of special
processing, and no ARP
storm will appear.
