J.128 (11/2005) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T

6、) 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 yea

7、rs, 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 nece

8、ssary 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. Howeve

9、r, 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 equ

10、ivalents 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 a

18、fines an interface and associated protocol that introduces additional requirements on a DOCSIS CMTS and DOCSIS CM to support the configuration and transport of a class of service known as “Out-Of-Band (OOB) messaging“ between a Set-top Controller (or application servers) and the customer premises eq

19、uipment (CPE). In general, the CPE is intended to be a digital Set-top Device, but may include other CPE devices, such as Residential Gateways or other electronic equipment. Figure 1-1 provides the context for this Recommendation in relation to the data-over-cable reference architecture and the othe

20、r interface specifications in the DOCSIS Cable Modem series. Traditionally, the physical transport of this Out-Of-Band messaging has been carried over a variety of mechanisms, including ITU-T J.184. This Recommendation defines the applicable communications standards and protocols needed to implement

21、 an Out-Of-Band messaging interface to the Set-top Device using DOCSIS as a transport. It applies to cable systems employing HFC and coaxial architectures. Specifically, the scope of this Recommendation is to: Describe the communications protocols and standards to be employed. Specify the data commu

22、nication requirements and parameters that will be common to all units. The intent of this Recommendation is to specify open protocols, with a preference for existing, well-known and well-accepted standards. This interface Recommendation is written to provide the minimal set of requirements for satis

23、factory communication between the Set-top Controller and the Set-top Device over the DOCSIS transport. “DOCSIS Set-top Gateway“ (DSG) shall be the general term used to describe this interface. 1.2 Purpose of the Recommendation Cable operators have deployed millions of digital set-top boxes enabling

24、broadcast and interactive services. They have also deployed millions of DOCSIS cable modems with the associated infrastructure, CMTS, routers, and network connectivity. There is significant interest in enabling digital set-top boxes to leverage the existing infrastructure of digital video and DOCSIS

25、 networks. This Recommendation is one of a series of interface specifications that will permit the early definition, design, development and deployment of digital cable systems on a uniform, consistent, open, non-proprietary, multi-vendor interoperable basis. The intended service will allow transpar

26、ent unidirectional and bidirectional transport of Out-Of-Band messaging over Internet Protocol (IP), between the cable system headend and customer locations, over an all-coaxial or hybrid-fibre/coax (HFC) cable network. This is shown in simplified form in Figure 1-1. 2 ITU-T Rec. J.128 (11/2005) Fig

27、ure 1-1/J.128 Transparent out-of-band messaging via DOCSIS The transmission path over the cable system is realized at the headend by a Set-top Controller that is responsible for managing the Set-top Devices, a regional or wide area IP network connecting the Set-top Controller to the Cable Modem Term

28、ination System (CMTS), and, at each customer location, a Set-top Device with an embedded Cable Modem. At the headend (or hub), the interface to the data-over-cable system is called the Cable Modem Termination System Network-Side Interface. The intent is for the cable operators to transparently trans

29、port OOB messaging traffic between these interfaces, including but not limited to UDP over IP datagrams in either unicast, broadcast, or multicast forms. DSG addresses several issues. DSG allows the DOCSIS downstream transport to be used for Out-of-Band signalling. DSG allows delivery of Out-of-Band

30、 messages through the DOCSIS downstream without requiring return path functionality between the Set-top Devices and the CMTS. DSG allows legacy non-IP addressing of Set-top Devices by a Set-top Controller to be transported over a tunnel on an IP network. 2 References 2.1 Normative references The fol

42、J.128 DSG terminology This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.1.1 Application ID: This is a 16-bit field indicating a numeric ID for an application running on the Set-top Device. The Application ID is typically assigned through a Source Name Sub-table (SNS) from ITU-T J.94 carried in the

43、Broadcast DSG Tunnel. 3.1.2 CA_system_ID: This is a 16-bit field indicating the type of CA system applicable for either the associated ECM and/or EMM streams. The CA_system_ID may be used as a DSG Client ID in DSG Advanced Mode. 3.1.3 DOCSIS Set-Top Gateway (DSG): The DOCSIS Set-top Gateway (DSG) de

44、fines functionality on a DOCSIS CMTS and DOCSIS CM to support the configuration and transport of a class of service known as “Out-Of-Band (OOB) messaging“ between a Set-top Controller (or application servers) and the customer premises equipment (CPE). The DSG is not intended for the delivery of prog

45、ramming content. 3.1.4 DSG address table: The collection of DSG Rules and DSG Classifiers contained within the DCD message. The DSG Client uses its DSG Client ID as an index into the DSG Address Table to determine what DSG Tunnel Address to receive. 3.1.5 DSG advanced mode: Operation with the DCD me

46、ssage. Address assignment is dynamic. The DSG Tunnel Address is determined by the DSG Agent and learned by the DSG Client through the DSG Address Table in the DCD message. 3.1.6 DSG agent: The DSG Agent is the implementation of the DSG protocol within the CMTS. The DSG Agent creates the DSG Tunnel,

47、places content from the DSG Server into the DSG Tunnel, and sends the DSG Tunnel to the DSG Client. 3.1.7 DSG basic mode: Operation without the DCD message. Address assignment is static. The DSG Tunnel Address is determined by the DSG Client and learned by the DSG Agent through configuration. This m

48、ode provides backwards compatibility with earlier versions of the DSG specification. 3.1.8 DSG channel: Any DOCSIS downstream channel that contains one or more DSG Tunnels. 3.1.9 DSG classifier: A description of layer 3 and layer 4 filtering applied to DSG Tunnel traffic. DSG Classifiers may be spec

49、ified in the DSG Agent and sent as a component of the DSG Address Table in the DCD Message. 3.1.10 DSG client: The DSG Client terminates the DSG Tunnel and receives content from the DSG Server. There may be more than one DSG Client within a Set-top Device. ITU-T Rec. J.128 (11/2005) 5 3.1.11 DSG client controller: The portion of the Set-top Device that handles the processing of DCD messages and makes decisions regarding the forwarding of DSG
