ITU-T G.9973 (10/2011) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized age

8、ncy in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view

9、 to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendati

10、ons is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for concisene

11、ss to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation

12、 is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTE

19、mmendation ITU-T G.9973 Protocol for identifying home network topology 1 Scope Various kinds of Internet protocol (IP) terminal devices, such as PCs, digital TVs, gaming devices, and portable music devices, have recently been, and continue to be, connected to the IP home network. Furthermore, their

20、number is increasing. The kinds of transmission media (PLC, wireless, UTP, etc.) used to connect each IP terminal are also becoming more varied. Under such circumstances, most users are unable to troubleshoot the IP home network by themselves, without the availability of appropriate network services

21、. It is desired to introduce a simple and easy IP home network management that can localize the fault in each device and network and help recover from trouble. ITU-T G.9971 describes three kinds of management requirements for the IP home network: configuration management, fault management, and perfo

22、rmance management. Based on ITU-T G.9971, this Recommendation specifies the configuration management protocol that is described in TTC JJ-300.00. This protocol is used to manage devices in the IP home network for the purpose of showing the Layer 2 (L2) home network topology to users within the home

23、network only (behind the access gateway (AGW). On the other hand, b-BBF TR-069 called CPE WAN Management Protocol is the candidate for the remote home network management protocol from outside of the AGW. Although it may be necessary in the future to study the interaction between this management prot

24、ocol and the CPE WAN Management Protocol, it is out of the scope in this Recommendation. This Recommendation does not identify devices on multiple links, but on a single link, as shown in Figure 8-1. Note that “a single link“ means the one-data link layer, which constitutes one IP domain between the

25、 AGW and the IP terminal. As the deployment of new link-layer technologies such as b-IEEE 802.15.4 will enable and require the use of multiple links in the home network, ITU-T G.9973 may in the future be extended to cover multiple links composed of IP and non-IP devices. Home network security is imp

26、ortant. A device using ITU-T G.9973 to collect information about the home network will be required to take certain steps to ensure that the information is not accessible through the wide area network (WAN) interface of the AGW. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references co

The keyword “may“ implies that it is not required to claim conformance. 6 The applied area of the protocol for identifying home netw

36、ork topology Figure 6-1 shows the home network area in which the protocol specified by this Recommendation is applied. Both the access network and the IP/non-IP home network behind the IP terminal are out of the scope of this Recommendation. Moreover, the IP home network which is directly connected

37、from the access network without the AGW is also out of the scope. The target home network is composed of the IP terminal, Ethernet bridge, and AGW, where one or more IP terminals can be connected to the IP home network and zero or more Ethernet bridges can reside within the IP home network. The AGW

38、has two kinds of functions: the home network side and the access network side, while it contains L2 and/or L3 functions. This Recommendation only covers configuration management on the home network side functions of the AGW. Moreover, even if the AGW contains an L3 function such as an IP routing fun

39、ction, this Recommendation only covers the functions necessary for identifying L2 home network topology. It is assumed that the broadcast protocol in the data link layer is utilized for this protocol. The applied area of the protocolIP home networkEthernetbridgeIPterminalIP/non-IPhome networkAGWAcce

40、ssnetworkFigure 6-1 The applied area of the protocol 7 Functional requirements of the protocol for identifying the home network topology The protocol is mainly used for identifying the home network topology. It is also used for checking the connectivity between the local manager and the local agent,

41、 the definitions of which are described in clause 11.1 of ITU-T G.9971. This Recommendation specifies the protocol that meets some of the requirements listed in clause 11.3 of ITU-T G.9971. The functional requirements, as well as their relationship with those in ITU-T G.9971, are given below. Figure

42、 8-1 will also be helpful to understand these requirements. R1 (based on R11-C1 and R11-C2 in ITU-T G.9971): The local L3 agent must be able to acquire the IP and MAC addresses of the device where the local L3 agent resides. The local L3 agent must also be able to transmit the IP and MAC addresses t

43、o the local manager in the manner described in clause 8.2. R2 (based on R11-C3 in ITU-T G.9971): The local L2 agent must be able to acquire the MAC forwarding table retained by the device where the local L2 agent resides. The local L2 agent must also be able to transmit the MAC forwarding table to t

44、he local manager in the manner described in clause 8.3. 4 Rec. ITU-T G.9973 (10/2011) R3 (based on R11-C4 in ITU-T G.9971): The local L3 agent must be able to acquire and transmit its device information to the local manager in the manner described in clause 8.2. R4 (based on R11-C5 in ITU-T G.9971):

45、 The local L2 agent must be able to acquire and transmit its device information to the local manager in the manner described in clause 8.3. R5 (based on R11-L2 in ITU-T G.9971): The local L3 agent should be able to respond to a connectivity check command from the local manager in the manner describe

46、d in clause 9.1. R6 (based on R11-L2 in ITU-T G.9971): The local L2 agent should be able to send packets periodically to the local manager for checking connectivity in the manner described in clause 9.2. 8 The protocol for identifying home network topology This clause describes the interaction betwe

47、en the local manager and the local L3 agent, as well as the local manager and the local L2 agent. Management information to identify the IP home network topology falls into two areas: device information and MAC forwarding table information. One example of device information is the device category, s

48、uch as the Ethernet bridge or PC. Device information resides in the local L3 agent or the local L2 agent, while the MAC forwarding table information resides in the local L2 agent of the Ethernet bridge or the AGW. Management information can be retrieved by the local manager, which can reside in any

49、device in the IP home network, according to the last paragraph of clause 11.1 of ITU-T G.9971. Figure 8-1 shows a typical case where the local manager resides in the AGW. The AGW has both the local L2 and L3 agents, while the Ethernet bridge and the IP terminal have the local L2 agent and the local L3 agent, respectively. The local L3 agent of the IP terminal sends device information by using the UDA, while the local L2 agent of the Ethernet bridge sends both device information and MAC forwarding table i
