20、-0001 September 2011 - 6 - 1 Scope, Purpose, & Application 1.1 Introduction The Ordering and Billing Forum (OBF) determined that there is a need to identify IP-IP direct interconnection session scenarios as a starting point to being able to further develop IP ordering, billing, and settlement recomm

21、endations and standards. These IP-based service scenarios will be used as a guide in determining which ordering requirements to focus on initially. 1.2 Background The OBF met and coordinated with several ATIS technical committees to understand the technology of switching and transporting a call or d

22、ata between two IP points since late 2005. It was concluded, based on the numerous scenarios discussed, that the main scenarios need to be documented to support the further development of Ordering and Billing standards as they relate to IP-to-IP connectivity and IP services between operators. The pu

23、rpose of this document is to identify and analyze the appropriate IP-IP interconnection ordering scenarios as a basis for future standards development. Scenarios and Use Cases are critical first steps in establishing an ordering methodology. This document further extends the work detailed in ATIS-04

24、13001, Next Generation Network Operations Business and Functional Requirements for Ordering and Billing/Settlement. Consideration of Billing/Settlement in these use cases is being deferred pending the FCCs review of intercarrier compensation arrangements for VoIP, which was underway at the time this

25、 document was developed. 1.3 Scope This document provides a set of scenarios and use cases that will aid the OBF in the development of standards between Operators in the NGN environment. The document also maps the steps identified in the Scenarios and Use Cases to the appropriate TMF eTOM Operations

26、 Business Process Function 1 and the Next Generation Network Operations Business and Functional Requirements for Ordering and Billing/Settlement 2. Those steps denoted in section 4 that fall within the scope of the OBF are identified with a “*” in the OBF Scope column of the Use Case Step tables. Th

27、e focus of this document is on ordering impacts for layers 3 (IP) and 5 (application, e.g., SIP). It is assumed, unless otherwise stated, that existing methods will continue to be used to address layer 1-2 connectivity. 1.4 Scope Assumptions There are a number of options available for IP connectivit

28、y, from non-regulated to fully regulated. The orienting assumption for this document is that the terms of NGN carrier interconnection will be a matter of commercial negotiation between interconnecting parties and that parties may interconnect at a smaller number of points than is the case today for

29、circuit-switched interconnection. The ATIS Packet Technologies and Systems Committee (PTSC) created the NGN Architecture Reference Diagram in Figure 1 as a part of their work on NGN Standards.

31、ed in Sections 4 and 5. The term Border Element (BE) is utilized as defined in ATIS NGN Architecture Phase 2 5. Layers 1-5, as utilized in this document, refer to the Layers defined in the Open System Interconnection Model (OSI Model). The PTSC work has also identified at Layer 5 that the signaling

32、(SIP) and media (RTP) could be routed separately and along different paths. However, in the Use Cases defined in sections 4 and 5, the OBF assumed that the RTP media and the call control signaling transverse the same path. Additional use cases may be created at a later point to address where the two

33、 paths differ. This document focuses on one type of signaling, SIP. However, it is recognized that alternative protocols exist in addition to SIP. As other signaling and media types are more widely deployed, additional Use Cases may need to be developed. The OBF recognizes the relevance of Quality o

34、f Service (QoS) to IP Interconnections and the discussions currently being held in other SDOs. Once a QoS standards determination has been made, the OBF may consider incorporating those standards into the Use Cases in this document. ATIS-0416001-0001 September 2011 - 8 - 1.5 Use Case Description Tem

35、plate The format of the Use Cases in sections 4 and 5 is based on the template outlined in TMOC Use Case Template 8. Additionally, the Use Cases depict the linkage between the “Steps” of the Use Cases and Section 6 of ATIS-0413001, Next Generation Network Operations Business and Functional Requireme

36、nts for Ordering and Billing/Settlement 2. For the purpose of consistency, the Use Cases in this document are written from the perspective of Operator B and do not presume a specific ordering flow between operators.

40、ommendation L.55 (03), 3.6. ATIS-0416001-0001 September 2011 - 10 - 3 Definitions, Acronyms, & Abbreviations 3.1 Terminology The word “SHALL“ will be understood as denoting a mandatory requirement. “Shall“ will be used wherever the criterion for conformance with the specific recommendation requires

41、that there be no deviation. The word “SHOULD“ shall denote a recommendation. “Should“ shall be used wherever noncompliance with the specific recommendation is permissible. The words “CONDITIONAL MANDATORY” shall denote a requirement the implementation of which is optional, but which if it is impleme

42、nted shall be implemented in the exact manner specified. The word “MAY” shall denote an optional capability that may augment the standard. The standard is fully functional without the incorporation of this optional capability. 3.2 Definitions Flow: A flow is defined as a set of IP packets passing an

43、 observation point in the network during a certain time interval. All packets belonging to a particular flow have a set of common properties. Each property is defined as the result of applying a function to the values of: 1) one or more packet header fields (e.g., destination IP address), transport

44、header fields (e.g., destination port number) or application header fields (e.g., RTP header fields). 2) one or more characteristics of the packet itself (e.g., number of MPLS labels). 3) one or more fields derived from packet treatment (e.g., next hop IP address, output interface). Hot-Potato Routi

45、ng: The practice of passing traffic to the peer network as quickly as possible. Operator: The entity that holds the legal ownership of the transport and terminating infrastructure and the associated rights-of-way or real property 10. The document uses the term Operator generically to avoid limiting

46、the scope of provisioning/ownership of resources across multiple network services. Session: Logical connection (as opposed to physical connection) between parties involved in a packet-switched based communication. NOTE This term is used for IP-based connections rather than the term “call“ that is no

47、rmally used for a connection over conventional (circuit switched) systems. A session may be composed of one or more flows 9. The term will be used to refer to both voice and data services.
