[Shenzhen, November 8, 2025] During the 3rd Network Innovation and Development Conference, Zhang Lei, senior expert (chief) of Huawei data communications business planning, delivered a keynote speech entitled "Intelligent Internet Architecture and Key Technologies", aiming to promote the upgrade of networks from "connected information" to "connected intelligence". Support independent collaboration of hundreds of billions of agents to reshape digital services in the home, finance, and healthcare fields.Network innovation: From connecting people to connecting intelligenceWith the rapid development of large model technologies, AI is evolving from passive response to active decision-making, and from individual intelligence to group collaboration. Agent communications bring about five paradigm shifts: The communication subject shifts from "human" to "intelligent"; The addressing mode is changed from "IP addressing" to "semantic addressing" based on capability and intent. The traffic mode is changed from north-south to east-west + north-south synergy. Communication protocols emerge one after another and are inconsistent with each other. Endogenous security makes authentication and trust mechanisms essential at the bottom layer.Traditional Internet uses IP routing as the core, and the connection objects are limited to "one billion entities". The intelligent Internet uses technologies such as intelligent addressing and semantic routing to implement cross-domain interconnection of hundreds of billions of intelligent agents, which can efficiently carry emerging application scenarios such as smart home, smart industry, and smart production.Addressing Challenges: Defining the New Architecture of the Agent InternetFacing the transformation challenges brought by network innovation, Huawei shares the new architecture of the intelligent Internet, aiming to build an open, self-adaptive, distributed, secure, and high-performance 100-billion-level intelligent communication infrastructure.• Agent Application Layer: Enable thousands of intelligent services to implement autonomous task execution.• agent management and control layer: Establish decentralized identity authentication and zero-trust security mechanisms to ensure behavior traceability.• Agent Link Layer: Capability discovery and intent routing are implemented through the agent gateway.Physical network layer of the • agent: Provides efficient and deterministic transmission and supports millisecond-level low latency and zero packet loss.Industry Vision: Jointly build an intelligent Internet ecosystemThe Intelligent Internet Architecture and Key Technologies Report released by Huawei and several industry representatives is a guiding document, which systematically describes the vision, architecture, and key technologies of the Intelligent Internet and builds consensus on the Intelligent Internet industry. In the future, Huawei will work with industry partners to promote technological innovation and standard formulation, and push the industry toward a new era of AI-driven digital intelligence.

[Shenzhen, November 8, 2025] During the 3rd Network Innovation and Development Conference, city representatives from China and overseas, industry experts, and representatives from international organizations gathered to discuss the practical path, challenges, opportunities, and future vision of next-generation networks in pioneer city construction. This event brings together global intelligence to comprehensively showcase the achievements and future blueprints of new Internet pioneer cities, and inject powerful impetus into the digital transformation of global cities.Chen Gang, Director of Industrial Internet Division of Jiangsu Future Network Group, as a representative of the pioneer cities in China, analyzed the construction path of pioneer cities in China based on the practice of Nanjing.
