Method for page redirection and WAP gateway

摘要

The present disclosure relates to the field of communications, and discloses a method for page redirection and a WAP gateway, which reduces the time delay the terminal experiences when acquiring pages. In the present disclosure, the WAP gateway requests, when receiving a page request from a user terminal, a page requested by the user terminal from a service provider; and when a page returned by the service provider satisfies a page redirection criterion, the WAP gateway performs a page redirection, and returns the page obtained after the redirection to the user terminal. The page redirection criterion is that the page contains redirection serial status codes indicating that a redirection is needed, or that the page contains an “onenterforward” mark. The WAP gateway retains the “Cookie” information included in the page returned by the service provider.
