11、ecord. The first release of this Recommendation focuses on the latter. This Recommendation is not restricted to point-to-point connections, but covers point-to-multipoint connections as well. Source ITU-T Recommendation E.745 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 2 (1997-2000) and was approved under the

12、 WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on 13 March 2000. ii Recommendation E.745 (03/2000) FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the

13、ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the

14、topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purvi

15、ew, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws a

16、ttention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members o

17、r others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not

34、 MP (I.356 cell exit). 3.1.3 UPC/NPC non-conforming cell: A cell which, according to the UPC/NPC device, violates the traffic contract. 3.1.4 UPC/NPC discarded cell: A cell discarded by the UPC/NPC device. Recommendation E.745 (03/2000) 3 3.1.5 lost cell: A cell lost between two different MPs is a c

35、ell received at the first MP but not at the second one, within a time Tmax(this definition is the same as reported in Recommendation I.356). The choice of the two MPs has to be consistent with the observed cell stream. 3.1.6 cell transfer delay across a node: It is defined as the difference between

36、the time at which the first bit of a given cell has completed transmission across MP8 and the time at which the last bit of the same cell had completed transmission across MP1 (this definition is the same as reported in Recommendation I.356). 3.1.7 one-point Cell Delay Variation (CDV): For each cell

37、 of a given connection the one-point CDV is the difference between the cells reference arrival time at a given MP and its actual arrival time (this definition is the same reported in Recommendation I.356). The reference arrival time is defined in Recommendation I.356 and uses the peak cell rate valu

38、e declared by the connection. 3.1.8 buffer occupancy status: Buffer occupancy is measured as the fraction of arriving cells finding the buffer above a given set of thresholds (in the simplest case a single threshold can be used). This measurement provides information useful to derive the cell loss p

39、robability due to buffer congestion, in addition to that obtained from the measurement of the cell loss ratio. As traffic engineering procedures aim at keeping cell losses as rare events, the information obtained from buffer occupancy, being derived from more frequent events, will be more reliable a

40、nd could therefore be considered as the primary source of information on cell loss probability. 3.1.9 number of cell lost due to congestion at input-port, internal, or output-port buffers: The number of cells lost due to congestion at the network element (NE) either at the input, internally or at th

41、e output. The congestion is assumed to take place at input-, internal- or output buffers respectively. The location where cells might be discarded due to buffer congestion is dependent on the node architecture. For example, the architecture could be such that discards due to congestion will occur on

42、ly at output-line cards. Logically, the measurements of cell discards due to congestion need only to be done at locations where such events are designed to occur. 3.1.10 incoming traffic volume: It is defined as the number of incoming cells across MP2 over a fixed time interval T. In this way, we do

43、 not consider cells that are discarded due to header error. 3.1.11 outgoing traffic volume: It is the number of outgoing cells across MP7, counted over a period of fixed length T. 4 Abbreviations This Recommendation uses the following abbreviations: AAL ATM Adaptation Layer ABR Available Bit Rate AT

47、racterization Traffic type classification through cell traffic variables (see Recommendation E.716). Load evaluation. Performance monitoring Monitoring of the GOS provided at the cell level. Traffic control behaviour Monitoring of UPC/NPC actions. Support of ABR mechanisms. Support of ABT mechanisms

48、. Support of adaptive CAC. 5.2 Restrictions to this Recommendation This Recommendation does not specify any specific measurement methods. In Annex C/I.356 some methods are given, which can serve as a guideline for some of the measurement types given below. Annex C/I.356 describes both methods which

49、can be in-service and out-of-service, but it is by no means comprehensive. For instance, passive measurement methods are not covered. This Recommendation does not specify measurements for the physical layer, which are covered in Recommendation G.826. Measurements for cells containing signalling information are for further study, but from a cell level measurement point of view they are merely cells with a special header (see Recommendation I.311).
