17、 039-4 V2.1.1 (2007-04) 5 1 Scope The present document describes an extension to H.248.1 gateway protocol to enable a robust overload control mechanism to be implemented between Access Media Gateways (AGWs) and their associated Media Gateway Controllers (MGCs). The control is not dependent on the ve

18、rsion of H.248 used. 1.1 Applicability The Rate Based Access Media Gateway/MGC Overload Control Protocol is applicable for: analog line interfaces with Analog Line Signalling (ALS), corresponding AGW H.248 Terminations are of type analog line (ALN); interfaces with Channel Associated Signalling (CAS

19、). The Access Media Gateway/MGC Overload Control Protocol is not applicable for: all interface types with Common Channel Signalling (CCS) for controlling the corresponding bearer connections at the AGW, e.g.: a) ISDN B-channels of ISDN BRIs; b) ISDN B-channels of ISDN PRIs; c) V5.1 B-channels of V5.

20、1 interfaces; d) V5.2 B-channels of V5.2 interfaces; or e) any narrowband Access Node interface with CCS. NOTE 1: CCS traffic is relayed in this kind of AGW by embedded SIGTRAN Signalling Gateways (SG). Such a SG type terminates layer 2 of the control plane protocol stack (e.g. Q.921) and passes the

21、 layer 3 signalling (e.g. Q.931) transparently to the associated MGC. The AGW therefore has no capability to detect start of call events nor provide address digit analysis. NOTE 2: Extending the AGW type (of note 1) by an additional capability of “monitoring layer 3 call control signalling“ may allo

22、w the application of the MGC Overload Control Protocol for CCS interfaces. However, such a concept is for further study. 2 References The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document.

28、erload control mechanism The purpose of the present document is to define an overload control mechanism between Access Media Gateways (AGWs) and their associated Media Gateway Controllers (MGCs) in an NGN. This mechanism is concerned solely with MGC overload due to excessive originating call attempt

29、s from dependent AGWs. Additional mechanisms (which are outside the scope of the present document) must also be employed to provide an overall overload control solution/strategy in a NGN. 4.1 AGW-MGC overload scenarios In an NGN there exists the possibility that there will be many thousands of AGWs

30、connected to a single MGC. With such an architecture it is envisaged that it may only require a moderate increase in call attempt levels across all of the AGWs to cause a MGC to become overloaded. In the case of media-stimulated events (e.g. tele-voting) or in the event of a disaster, there is often

31、 a large step change in the level of call attempts. In the NGN architecture, such an event is likely to grossly overload the MGCs to a level where service may cease completely. With such large numbers of AGWs connected to a single MGC it will be necessary to efficiently, and quickly, propagate infor

32、mation relating to the MGC overload back to its dependant AGWs, allowing the AGWs to immediately take preventative action, and thus quickly reduce the level of load that is being offered to the overloaded MGC. ETSI ETSI ES 283 039-4 V2.1.1 (2007-04) 7 4.2 AGW-MGC overload control mechanism The high

33、level requirement is to enable the rate of new originating calls that are generated by an AGW to be reduced during conditions of MGC overload, whilst at the same time permitting priority calls to be admitted (e.g. calls to an emergency operator or calls originating from a priority analogue line). Th

34、e basic premise of the load control mechanism is that the MGC is able to invoke a regulating capability on the AGW when the MGC is in overload. This is achieved by sending a H.248 MODIFY command request against the ROOT termination with a new package (see clause 5.1) that is recognized by the AGW as

35、 being indicative of MGC overload, and contains an indication of the amount of load to be regulated by the AGW. Since the AGW is unaware of the concept of a “call“, it is proposed that the AGW shall regulate the level of new off-hook notifications it offers to the overloaded MGC to the level that ha

36、s been signalled by the MGC. A new off-hook is identified at the AGW via detection of an off-hook event at a termination that is in the NULL context. The proposed mechanism enables the MGC to quickly propagate information relating to its overload, and the allowed admitted rate of off-hooks that its

37、dependant AGWs should be regulating in order to reduce the offered load to the MGC. The purpose of the control mechanism is to maintain high effective throughput at an overloaded MGC subject to bounding MGC response times , i.e. keeping the response times short enough to prevent customer reattempts.

38、 The new package would be used by the MGC on the occurrence of either a new originating / terminating a call from/to a dependent AGW to enable regulation of new off-hook notifications. Under this proposal, AGWs will, during a MGC overload, regulate any new Off Hook notifications based upon the curre

39、nt level signalled from the MGC and the priority allocated to the Off Hook. Off Hook notifications that are accepted by the regulation mechanism are passed onto the MGC and handled normally. For those calls that are regulated by the filtering mechanism, then the AGW must first determine if the line

40、is initiating a call to a priority destination. The AGW does this by autonomously responding to the Off Hook notification by applying standard dial tone and then, if necessary, collecting and comparing signalled digits with pre-defined simple digit strings. The signalled digits will be sufficient to

41、 enable the AGW to establish the priority of the call destination. The priority of the call attempt is reassessed using the digit information, and re-presented to the regulation mechanism. If the call is “rejected“ by the regulation mechanism then the AGW applies an autonomous line/port control func

42、tionality defined by a pre-configured script/data. In essence, this script defines a sequence of signals that are applied to the line so that the expected behaviour of the calling party is to hang up and re-attempt the o/g call at a later time. The sequence of signals covers the playing of appropria

43、te indications (e.g. network busy tone) together with appropriate line feeds to eventually return the line to an idle state. 5 H.248 package details A new package is introduced to convey the degree of overload at the (overloaded) MGC to the dependent AGWs. This package is based upon the notification

44、 behaviour (nb) package that has been defined in 1 (H.248.1 version 3, annex E.15). The main differences are that this package implements a rate based restriction and may be applied to AGWs that support any version of H.248. 5.1 ETSI Notification Rate Package Package Name: ETSI Notification Rate Pac

46、 notrat (0x0001) Description: This property conveys the maximum allowed admitted rate (per second) of off-hook notifications from terminations in the NULL context that should be regulated by an AGW. The property applies to the ROOT termination. Type: OctetString, with up to 8 octets. Valid strings c

47、onsist of an optional sign character (+, -) followed by 1 to 4 decimal digits, followed by the decimal point “.“ followed by 1 or 2 decimal digits.
