9、ge ID (base or extended) will be used (published) in commands. It also allows the MGC to suppress the use of certain packages on the media gateway (MG).

10、lecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency 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

11、 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 every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Re

12、commendations 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 purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Reco

Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interope

14、rability 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 negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that

15、compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, val

ITU-T H.248.75 (05/2011) 1 Recommendation ITU-T H.248.75 Gateway control protocol: Package identifier publishing and application package 1 Scope One of the core functions provided by ITU-T H.248.1 is the ability to define “H.248 Packages“ which extend th

21、e capabilities of the protocol without modifying the protocol syntax. Properties, signals, events and statistics (known as ITU-T H.248 elements) may be defined via packages. An ITU-T H.248 package template allows the definition of properties, signals, events and statistics in a stand-alone manner in

22、dependent of other packages. Alternatively, it allows the package definition to inherit the properties, signals, events and statistics of another package and then add additional ITU-T H.248 elements or values to existing elements. ITU-T H.248s package extension mechanism allows for a nested inherita

23、nce, i.e., C can extend B which can extend A. However, in a package definition, the “extends“ relationship is only between two packages: a base package and an extended package. Thus, whether a package is deemed a base or an extended package is determined from this perspective. The terms “base packag

24、e“ and “extended package“ are defined in clause 3.2. For efficient communication between a media gateway controller (MGC) and a media gateway (MG), the two entities should agree on a common set of packages and how they will be used. Currently, this agreement is achieved by the MGC learning the list

25、of packages and package versions that the MG supports through an audit of the packages descriptor and/or the use of profiles. The MGC should then refrain from using any package that the MG does not support. This mechanism, while simple and robust, suffers from several limitations: The MGC cannot ask

26、 the MG to stop using certain package IDs. Where the MGC/MG utilize extension packages, whilst the MGC may only support the use of extended package IDs, the MG may, however, reply with a base package ID. This may cause parsing errors. Likewise the MGC may only support the use of base package IDs for

27、 the base elements and extended package IDs for the extended elements; however, the MG may reply using only the extended package ID for both elements. The MGC has no way to prevent this. The packages descriptor does not expose the relationship between base packages and extended packages supported by

28、 the MG. As explained under clause 6.2.3 of ITU-T H.248.1, some scenarios may cause an MG to encode package elements using a base package ID even when the MGC only implements the extended package, and vice versa. The MGC cannot ask the MG to stop using packages that the MGC does not support. The exi

29、stence of such packages will not prevent the MG from correctly processing requests sent by the MGC. However, elements belonging to these packages may appear in replies generated by the MG (for example, in replies to an AuditValue.req of a complete descriptor). These extra elements will unnecessarily

30、 increase the size of the replies, thus contributing to the signalling overhead. This Recommendation defines a new package that aims to resolve the above shortcomings. This package allows the MGC to determine the relationship between the base and extended packages as well as to determine/set which p

31、ackage ID (base and/or extended) will be used (published) in commands. It also allows the MGC to suppress the use of certain packages on the MG. 2 Rec.

36、8.1): A package that is supported by the MG and that extends at least one other package supported by the MG. NOTE An extended package may also be a base package.

40、s clause discusses different use cases concerning the use of base or extended package IDs. 6.1 Packages audit When an MG implements an extended ITU-T H.248 package and its base, ITU-T H.248.1 allows it to decide whether it will publish the base package ID in response to a packages audit from the MGC

41、. This behaviour is described in clause 6.2.3 of ITU-T H.248.1. If the MG decides to only publish the extended package ID, then only this package ID would be used to reference all ITU-T H.248 package elements (properties, signal, events and statistics) of the base and extended package in both ITU-T

42、H.248 command requests and replies. If the MG decides to publish both the base and extended package IDs, then the MGC and the MG can decide to use either the base or extended package IDs to reference the ITU-T H.248 package elements of the base package in command requests. How the MGC and MG decide

43、is discussed in clause 6.2 herein. By using the “Package Extension Information“ property from the “Package Identifier Publishing and Application Package“, the MGC is able to determine the relationship between an extended package and its base without the need for the provisioning of this information

44、in the MGC. 6.2 Full and wildcarded package IDs Where an MGC has fully specified the package ID in a command request, the MG uses this in the command reply, and vice versa. Where the MGC has wildcarded the package ID in a command request, by default the MG should reply with the package ID of the pac

45、kage where the ITU-T H.248 package element was originally defined, if the MG publishes both the related base package ID and extended package ID in response to a packages descriptor audit. Otherwise, the MG would use the extended package ID (in replacement of the base package ID for the base element)

46、 if it only publishes the extended package ID. For more information, see clause 6.2.3 of ITU-T H.248.1. There is no known case where an MG wildcards the package ID in a command request (e.g., Notify.req). The above behaviour of using both the base and extended package IDs may cause issues where an M

47、GC has only been provisioned with the knowledge of the extended package IDs (for base and extended elements) and does not accept an MG using a base package ID (that it has no prior knowledge of) in the response. Likewise, this may cause issues where an MGC has only been provisioned with the knowledg

48、e of the base package IDs for the base elements and extended package IDs for the extended elements. In this case, the MGC does not accept an MG using only the extended package IDs. The use of the “Base Package Publishing“ (pipa/bpp) property from the “Package Identifier Publishing and Application Pa

49、ckage“ allows the MGC to control how packages will be published and used as the interface between the MGC and MG in terms of the ITU-T H.248 control association. NOTE Whilst a Subtract.req does not explicitly request an AuditValue.req with a wildcarded package ID, it is implicit in the command. Thus it is in scope of the above wildcarded package ID usage. 4 Rec.
