H.248.54 (08/2007) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization S

9、ector (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 to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets ev

10、ery 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 Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purvi

11、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. Compliance with this Recommendation is volun

However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the

13、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.

19、otocol: MPLS support package 1 Scope An H.248 media gateway (MG) may be connected to multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) domains in various ways. The connection is typically realized via H.248 IP terminations, but there could also be other types of H.248 ephemeral terminations due to the nature of

20、the MPLS protocol architecture. A basic MPLS building block is the so-called “Label Switched Path“ (LSP), see IETF RFC 3031. The LSP binds MPLS domains and H.248 MGs because LSPs are associated with H.248 ephemeral terminations. This is the basic application of the H.248 mpls package. The concept of

21、 LSP is very extensive, leading to a variety of scenarios involving LSP usage. Some examples are, most notably: LSP establishment and release: signalled LSP establishment and release via a label distribution protocol (LDP); provisioned LSP. NOTE 1 The mpls package is applicable for provisioned LSPs.

22、 The support of signalled LSPs is for further study. Hierarchical LSPs: relates to the MPLS label stack (see property stack; label stacking introduces hierarchy). NOTE 2 The mpls package supports “any“ legal MPLS label stack size. LSPs used for traffic engineering: basic LSPs (according to IETF RFC

23、3031) are not “traffic engineered“, e.g., transport characteristics are not explicitly assigned, however: LSPs may be used for “traffic engineering“ support (see IETF RFC 2702). NOTE 3 The dimension of traffic engineering is not addressed by the mpls package version 1 as such, but the package permit

24、s traffic engineered LSPs. Traffic engineered LSPs are under the responsibility of MG provisioning. The support of signalled, traffic engineered LSPs is for further study and requires the handling of the LSP control protocol (e.g., CR-LDP, RSVP-TE; see IETF RFC 2702 and IETF RFC 3468) by the MGC and

25、/or MG. LSP mapping on H.248 streams and terminations: The following relations are applicable for LSP, H.248 stream and termination mapping: 1:1:1 relation between a H.248 stream of an ephemeral termination and LSP; N:1:1 relation between H.248 streams, ephemeral termination and LSP; N:M:1 relation

26、between H.248 streams, ephemeral terminations and LSP. NOTE 4 The mpls package supports the above mapping schemes. LSP termination: an H.248 MG could terminate an LSP, in which case the MG acts as an MPLS edge node (more details are outlined in Appendix I); an H.248 MG could also provide a LSP traff

27、ic forwarding function. The LSP would then involve a single H.248 context with two ephemeral terminations. NOTE 5 The first case is supported. The second case does not require the capabilities of the mpls package. 2 ITU-T Rec. H.248.54 (08/2007) The mpls package may be used in various network enviro

28、nments. Several environments are described below. The function of the mpls package is further illustrated by examples in Appendix I. 1.1 General MPLS networks IETF RFC 3031 describes different MPLS node functions. Using this H.248 package, a H.248 MG could provide the MPLS edge node function. Furthe

29、r details are outlined in clause I.2. 1.2 PSTN/ISDN evolution to NGN ITU-T Y.2261 describes, amongst other things, core network evolution scenarios towards NGN. In these scenarios, the packet-switched network infrastructure could be MPLS-based. In this particular network evolution scenario, many H.2

30、48 MGs are interconnected in the transport domain. This is especially so for the call server-based evolution scenarios to NGN (see clause I.1.1 of ITU-T Y.2261, see also ITU-T Y.2271). Appendix I indicates how the mpls package could be used in such NGN use cases. 1.3 ITU-T NGN Release 1 MPLS is cons

31、idered as one of the transport technologies by NGN Release 1 (see clause 5.2 of ITU-T Y.2111). The policy enforcement physical entity (PE-PE) may control an entire MPLS domain, or theoretically may also be an element within an MPLS domain. The PE functional entity (PE-FE) may be physically realized

32、in an H.248 MG. In this case, the H.248 protocol may be profiled by the so-called “H.248 Rw profile“ (according to ITU-T Q.3303.2). The mpls package could then be used dependent on specific MPLS deployment scenarios (see above). 1.4 Relation to “RACF for MPLS based (core) networks“ For further descr

H.248.54 (08/2007) 5 Appendix I Some examples for MPLS network architectures (This appendix does not form an integral part of this Recommendation) I.1 Introduction This appendix illustrates some examples of MG involvement in MPLS network architectures. I.2 H.248 MG as a MPLS edge node T

46、he H.248 MG may be connected to MPLS domains in various ways. In this case, the MG acts as a MPLS edge node (see IETF RFC 3031), see Figure I.1. Subsequent MPLS nodes within the MPLS domain could be, for instance, MPLS label switching routers (LSR), i.e., the H.248 MG would then peer with one or mul

47、tiple LSRs. Another example is a peering configuration of the H.248 MG with a label switched hop. Figure I.1 H.248 MG as MPLS edge node The H.248 MG as MPLS edge node generally provides both the MPLS ingress node and the MPLS egress node functions in case of services with bidirectional communication

48、. The LSPs of the MPLS domain, which are terminated at the H.248 MGs, may be provisioned. Other LSPs in the MPLS domain could be dynamically controlled (signalled). The MGC binds a particular H.248 stream/termination to a LSP. 6 ITU-T Rec. H.248.54 (08/2007) I.3 LSPs as aggregates for MG-to-MG traff

49、ic Aggregation is a basic MPLS concept, see clause 3.20 of IETF RFC 3031. Such aggregates could be used for MG-to-MG traffic (Figure I.2, Note 1). The relation of a label to an aggregate is detailed in IETF RFC 3031. The MGC binds (Figure I.2, Note 2) a H.248 stream/termination to an aggregate via the stack property.
