Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé, un équipement et un système pour obtenir des informations d'équipement utilisateur. Le procédé consiste à : interroger une base de données d'informations d'équipement utilisateur, et obtenir des informations d'équipement utilisateur correspondant à un code d'attribution de type d'équipement d'un équipement utilisateur ; et envoyer les informations d'équipement utilisateur à une mémoire tampon vidéo et à un élément de réseau d'optimisation. Le procédé peut fournir de manière efficace les informations d'équipement utilisateur pour la mémoire tampon vidéo et l'élément de réseau d'optimisation d'une manière uniforme et fiable, permettant ainsi de résoudre le problème dans l'état de la technique selon lequel l'équipement utilisateur ne peut pas fournir de manière efficace les informations d'équipement utilisateur pour la mémoire tampon vidéo et l'élément de réseau d'optimisation lorsque l'équipement utilisateur n'a pas de capacité de rapport d'informations d'équipement utilisateur ou a une faible capacité de rapport d'informations d'équipement utilisateur.
