ABSTRACT:
A method for service binding includes: identifying a service provider identifier of a terminal and binding the terminal into a corresponding tunnel dependent upon the identified service provider identifier. The present invention implements dynamic binding of a terminal with a service through identifying a service provider identifier of the terminal, which offers more flexible selection of a service by a user, a reduced operation and maintenance cost of an operator, good extensibility of a network service and facilitated deployment of the service.
