8、nder the WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on the 27th of August 1996. STD- ITU-T RECMN I-3LL-ENGL 177L M 4b2.591 ObC1.534 FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector

9、(ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the 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 meet

10、s every four years, establishes the 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 techn

11、ology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration” is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLEC

24、ecommendation 1.311 B-ISDN GENERAL NETWORK ASPECTS (Geneva, 1991; revised Helsinki, 1993 and in 1996) VP vc 1 Network Layering Transmission path VP 1 vc 1.1 General ATM transport network is structured as two layers, namely the ATM Layer and the Physical Layer as shown in Figure 1. ATM transport netw

25、ork ATM Layer Physical Layer Higher layer I VC level I VP level Transmission path level Digital section level I Regenerator section level Figure 1/I. 311 - Hierarchy of the ATM transport network The transport functions of the ATM layer are subdivided into two levels; the VC level and the VP level. T

26、he transport functions of the physical layer are subdivided into three levels, the transmission path level, the digital section level and the regenerator section level. The transport functions of the ATM Layer are independent of the physical layer implementation. Figure 2 shows the relationship betw

27、een the virtual channel, the virtual path and the transmission path. Figure 2D.311- Relationship between the VC, the VP and transmission path Recommendation 1.311 (OW96) 1 1.2 Figure 3 shows the hierarchical level-to-level relationship in the ATM transport network. Each level relationship includes f

28、our architectural components: - Connection end-point - Connection end-point is located at the level boundary (e.g. between VC levei and VP level), where a client is served. The client may be located in the next higher level or in the management plane. The connection end-point provides the connection

29、 termination function. Connecting point - Connecting point is inside a connection where two adjacent links come together. It is located in a level where information is routed transparently. It provides the connecting function. Connection - Connection provides capability of transferring information b

30、etween endpoints. It represents the association between endpoints together with any additional information regarding the information transfer integrity. Link - Link provides capability of transferring information transparently. A link represents the association between contiguous connecting points o

31、r between an endpoint and its contiguous connecting point. Architectural components of an ATM transport network - - - As shown in Figure 3, a connection in a specific level provides services to a link in the next higher level. Annex A contains examples of a VCC supported by a cell-based (Figure A.l)

32、 and an SDH-based (Figure A.2) ATM transport network. NOTE - The relationship and/or alignment of this Recommendation with Recommendation G.803 Architecture of transport networks based on the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) is under study to determine the relationship between an ATM transport ne

33、twork and a layered model of the SDH-based transport network. 1.3 ATMLayer Each ATM cell contains a label in its header to explicitly identify the VC to which the cell belongs. This label consists of two parts - a Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) and a Virtual Path Identifier (VPI). 1.3.1 Virtual ch

34、annel level A Virtual Channel (VC) is a generic term used to describe a unidirectional communication capability for the transport of ATM cells. A VCI identifies a particular VC link for a given Virtual Path Connection (VPC). A specific value of VCI is assigned each time a VC is switched in the netwo

35、rk. A VC link is a unidirectional capability for the transport of ATM cells between two consecutive ATM entities where the VCI value is translated. A VC link is originated or terminated by the assignment or removal of the VCI value. Routing functions of virtual channels are done at a VC switchkross-

36、connect?. This routing involves translation of the VCI values of the incoming VC links into the VCI values of the outgoing VC links. Virtual channel links are concatenated to form a Virtual Channel Connection (VCC). A VCC extends between two VCC endpoints or, in the case of point-to-multipoint arran

37、gements, more than two VCC endpoints. A VCC endpoint is the point where the cell information field is exchanged between the ATM Layer and the user of the ATM Layer service. See 3.1 for the definition of switch and cross-connect. 2 Recommendation 1.311 (08/96) At the VC level, VCCs are provided for t

38、he purpose of user-user, user-network, or network-network information transfer. Cell sequence integrity is preserved as defined in clause 2fi.150 by the ATM Layer for cells belonging to the same VCC. Virtual channel levei Virtual path level Transmission path level Digital section level Regenerator s

39、ection levei Virtual channel connection j Virtual channel link / / Virtuai path connection , r I 1 , , all the VC links in a bundle have the same endpoints. A VPI identifies a group of VC links, at a given reference point, that share the same VPC. A specific value of VPI is assigned each time a VP i

40、s switched in the network. A VP link is a unidirectional capability for the transport of ATM cells between two consecutive ATM entities where the VPI Recommendation 1.311 (08/96) 3 value is translated. A VP link is originated or terminated by the assignment or removal.of the VPI value. Routing funct

41、ions for VPs are performed at a VP switchkross-connect. This routing involves translation of the VPI values of the incoming VP links into the VPI values of the outgoing VP links. VP links are concatenated to form a VPC. A VPC extends between two VPC endpoints or, in the case of point-to multipoint a

42、rrangements, there are more than two VPC endpoints. A VPC endpoint is the point where the VCIs are originated, translated or terminated. At the VP level, VPCs are provided for the purpose of user-user, user-network and network-network information transfer. When VCs are switched, the VPC supporting t

43、he incoming VC links must be terminated first and a new outgoing VPC must be created. Cell sequence integrity is preserved as defined in clause 2/I. 150 by the ATM layer for cells belonging to the same VPC. Thus cell sequence integrity is preserved for each VC link within a VPC. Figure 4 contains a

44、representation of the VP and VC switching hierarchy using the modelling of Figure 1. VPI values are modified in switching blocks for VPs and VCI values are modified in switching blocks for VCs. 1.4 Physical Layer 1.4.1 Transmission path level The transmission path extends between network elements th

45、at assemble and disassemble the payload of a transmission system. Cell delineation and header error control functions are required at the end point of each transmission path. 1.4.2 Digital section level The digital section extends between network elements which assemble and disassemble a continuous

46、bit or byte stream. 1.4.3 Regenerator section level The regenerator section is a portion of a digital section. 1.5 Hierarchical level-to-level relationship Figure 3 shows the generic hierarchical level-to-level relationship in an ATM transport network. More specific examples of this relationship are

47、 shown in Annex A for the two different physical layer options. 1.6 Functions in the virtual channel level and the virtual path level to be provided at connection end- points and connecting points are defined below.
