2、5 1stEdition / June 2008 . Introduction This Ecma Technical Report is the first of a series of Ecma publications that explore IP-based enterprise communication involving Corporate telecommunication Networks (CNs) (also known as enterprise networks) and in particular Next Generation Corporate Network

3、s (NGCN). The series particularly focuses on inter-domain communication, including communication between parts of the same enterprise, between enterprises and between enterprises and carriers. This particular Ecma Technical Report provides general information on the subject, defines some architectur

4、al concepts, identifies various communication scenarios, and provides a framework in support of other publications that provide greater detail on particular topics. This Technical Report is based upon the practical experience of Ecma member companies and the results of their active and continuous pa

5、rticipation in the work of ISO/IEC JTC1, ITU-T, ETSI, IETF and other international and national standardization bodies. It represents a pragmatic and widely based consensus. In particular, Ecma acknowledges valuable input from experts in ETSI TISPAN. This Ecma Technical Report has been adopted by th

20、blications that provides an overview of IP-based enterprise communication involving Corporate telecommunication Networks (CNs) (also known as enterprise networks) and in particular Next Generation Corporate Networks (NGCN). The series particularly focuses on session level communication based on the

21、Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) 6, with an emphasis on inter-domain communication. This includes communication between parts of the same enterprise (on dedicated infrastructures and/or hosted), between enterprises and between enterprises and public networks. Key technical issues are investigated,

22、current standardisation work and gaps in this area are identified and a number of requirements are stated. This particular Technical Report provides general information on the subject, defines some architectural concepts, identifies various communication scenarios, and provides a framework in suppor

23、t of other publications that provide greater detail on particular topics. At the time of publication of this Technical Report, one further document in the series has been published, on the subject of identification and routing 3. The scope of this Technical Report is limited to communications with a

24、 real-time element, including voice, video, real-time text and instant messaging.

28、chnical Report the following definitions apply: 3.1 Corporate telecommunication Network (CN) (ETSI EG 201 017 10) Telecommunication network serving a corporation, i.e. a single organization, an extended enterprise, or an industry application group as defined by the International Chamber of Commerce

29、(ICC). NOTE Sets of equipment Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) and/or Customer Premises Networks (CPN) are - 2 - typically located at geographically dispersed locations and are interconnected to provide networking services to a defined group of users. A CN can employ connection-oriented and connect

30、ionless technology. 3.2 Domain Session level capabilities within a single administrative area. NOTE A domain may or may not correspond to a DNS domain. 3.3 Enterprise network A CN comprising session level capabilities and optionally application layer capabilities hosted on one or more infrastructure

31、s. NOTE Infrastructures can include the enterprises own infrastructure (dedicated NGCN), the infrastructure of one or more hosting NGNs, the infrastructure of one or more hosting NGCNs or any combination of these. 3.4 Home server For a given user, as identified by a SIP address of record, the SIP in

32、termediary that contains registrar and proxy functionality in support of that user. NOTE It is therefore the SIP intermediary with which the users UAs register. 3.5 Transport service provider (TSP) A business or organisation separate from an enterprise that provides services for transporting data ba

33、sed on the use of IP at the network layer, thereby allowing the enterprise to communicate with entities outside the enterprise or with geographically dispersed parts of the enterprise. NOTE 1 Communication can but need not be via the public Internet. NOTE 2 A TSP should not intervene above the trans

34、port layer. This does not preclude a business or organisation that acts as a TSP also acting as the provider of higher level services, e.g., as an SSP. 3.6 Medium A given type of payload transported between session users (e.g., audio, video, text), separate from any signalling used for session estab

35、lishment. 3.7 Next Generation CN (NGCN) That part of an enterprise network that is not based on public network infrastructure, that is designed to take advantage of emerging IP-based communications solutions and that can have its own applications and service provisioning. NOTE. An NGCN can be an ent

36、ire enterprise network if none of that network is based on public network infrastructure. 3.8 Next Generation Network (NGN) The definition in 11 applies. NOTE. This defines an NGN as follows: “A Next Generation Network is a packet-based network able to provide services including Telecommunication Se

37、rvices and able to make use of multiple broadband, QoS-enabled transport technologies and in which service-related functions are independent from underlying transport-related technologies. It offers unrestricted access by users to different service providers. It supports generalized mobility which w

38、ill allow consistent and ubiquitous provision of services to users.“ It also goes on to list some fundamental aspects that characterise NGN. - 3 - 3.9 Private network traffic Signalling for session level communications that is handled according to rules specific to an enterprise network. 3.10 Public

39、 network traffic Signalling for session level communications that is handled according to rules for public networks. 3.11 Roaming The use of session capabilities of a visited domain to allow a user to access session level services at his home domain. NOTE 1 This usually requires a roaming agreement

40、between the operators of the domains concerned. NOTE 2 This definition of roaming reflects the concept of roaming as found in mobile telephone networks, for example. It does not encompass certain other common uses of the term, e.g., concerning transport service provision. 3.12 Roaming hub A network

41、or other entity with which an enterprise domain has a roaming agreement, allowing enterprise users to visit other domains that have a roaming agreement with the roaming hub but not directly with the enterprise domain. 3.13 Session service provider (SSP) A business or organisation separate from an en

42、terprise that provides communication capabilities at the session layer using SIP and thereby allows the enterprise to communicate using SIP with entities outside the enterprise or with geographically dispersed parts of the enterprise. 3.14 SIP intermediary Any intermediate entity involved either act

43、ively or passively in SIP signalling between two UAs, including but not limited to proxies, Back-to-Back User Agents (B2BUAs), Application Layer Gateways (ALGs) and Session Border Controllers (SBCs). 4 Abbreviations ALG Application Layer Gateway B2BUA Back-to-Back User Agent CN Corporate telecommuni

47、e outside world. This avoids incurring unnecessary charges and provides added value in terms of services and features available, integration with other enterprise applications, etc. These capabilities are provided through enterprise telecommunication networks (or corporate telecommunication networks

48、, CN, or simply enterprise networks). Many administrations do not apply the same licensing conditions or regulation to enterprise networks and their internal traffic as they do to public networks and their public network traffic. Many public networks also offer optional services to corporate custome

49、rs, such as hosted (Centrex) services and the leasing and maintenance of customer premises equipment. There has been a major evolution in enterprise telecommunications during the last few years. Prior to that, enterprise network were based on 64 kbit/s circuit-switched technology, which had synergy with corresponding technology deployed in public Integrated Services Digital Networks (ISDN) and traditional analogue services. Those enterprise networks primarily delivered a voice or telephony service to their users, although in principle they were ca
