7、ion within H.323 systems Summary This Recommendation specifies a mechanism that allows H.323 entities participating in a stable call to temporarily suspend and later resume the call signalling channel. Further, using the procedures described in this Recommendation, an intermediate entity (such as a

8、Gatekeeper that routes call signalling messages at the beginning of the call) may remove itself from the call signalling path once the call is stable, and establish the call signalling path directly between the other two entities.

9、 ITU-T Study Group 16 (2001-2004) under the ITU-T Recommendation A.8 procedure. ii ITU-T Rec. H.460.15 (03/2004) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU

10、-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 every four y

11、ears, 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 purview, the ne

12、cessary 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 voluntary. Howe

13、ver, 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 negative e

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

15、a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU

16、 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 represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2004 All ri

19、ion H.460.15 Call signalling transport channel suspension and redirection within H.323 systems 1 Scope This Recommendation describes the procedures and the signalling protocol for temporarily suspending the call signalling transport channel between two H.323 entities on a call-by-call basis. This su

20、spension is performed between the entities after the call reaches a stable state and only after mutual agreement. The signalling channel is resumed when a signalling message needs to be sent. For purposes of procedures in this Recommendation, a call is considered to be in a stable state as defined i

21、n R.3.5/H.323. The basic suspension and resumption procedure between two entities is further extended to an intermediate entity, such as a Gatekeeper routing call signalling, that can use it to get out of the signalling path and let the signalling flow directly between two endpoints. These procedure

22、s use the H.323 Generic Extensible Framework (GEF). 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

A remote Gatekeeper that routes call signalling shall indicate

An Annex G/H.225.0 Peer Element signals requirement for this capability in the common.featureSet.desiredFeatures or common.featureSet.neededFeatures fields. Once the local Gatekeep

39、eature description 5.1 Transport channel suspend and resume Once both the signalling entities recognize the support by the other, either one may invoke the feature by sending a StatusInquiry message and including the genericData field in its h323-uu-pdu containing ChannelSuspendRequest information a

40、s described in this Recommendation. The channelResumeAddress shall be set to the address(es) to which the connection should be re-established, with multiple addresses listed as an ordered set of alternatives. The ChannelSuspendRequest message contains an immediateResume flag which, when set to TRUE,

41、 indicates that the recipient shall immediately re-establish a new connection upon closure of the current connection. The signalling neighbour should reply with a Status message with the ChannelSuspendResponse in the genericData field. If it is agreeable to the suspension of the connection, it shoul

42、d indicate that by setting the okToSuspend field to TRUE. The entity that wishes to suspend the connection will then confirm with a ChannelSuspendConfirm message and proceed to gracefully shutdown the transport connection, taking care to flush any remaining messages in the sent buffer on both sides

43、of the connection. An entity shall not transmit further messages on that transport connection once it has indicated that it is acceptable to suspend the transport connection, unless the suspension is cancelled by the requesting entity by transmitting a ChannelSuspendCancel message. 4 ITU-T Rec. H.46

44、0.15 (03/2004) When either entity wishes to send a call-related message to its signalling neighbour, the connection needs to be re-established. To re-establish the signalling channel, the entity opens a transport connection to the transport address sent by the signalling neighbour. If there is more

45、than one transport address, the addresses will be tried in the order sent. After opening the connection the entity shall send a StatusInquiry message with ChannelResumeRequest. This message contains a random number. In case both the entities open a connection and send the ChannelResumeRequest at the

46、 same time, the entity that has the numerically lower random number shall close its connection. In case the random numbers are the same, both entities shall transmit a new StatusInquiry message over the transport connection with a different random number. Creating a new connection may not be necessa

47、ry if a signalling channel between the entities already exists and may be reused. The entity that receives an acceptable ChannelResumeRequest shall reply with a ChannelResumeResponse in a Status message before commencing regular call signalling messages on the channel. A ChannelSuspendRequest or a C

48、hannelResumeRequest embedded within a StatusInquiry that is replied with a Status message without the appropriate response (ChannelSuspendResponse or ChannelResumeResponse) shall be treated as a protocol error and handled as per 8.6/H.323. It is possible that an entity may not have sufficient resour

49、ces to initiate or accept a new transport connection especially if the motivation behind suspending connection is to optimize resource usage. To prevent this condition, it is recommended that each entity set aside a percentage of its resources for the resumption of suspended connections. In case of failure to establish the transport connection for resumption, the initiator shall cycle through the list of channelResumeAddress for a number of times determined by the implementation. Complete failure to resume a suspended signalling channel should
