The key words indicating a certain level of significance of a particular requirements that are used throughout this Recommendation are summarized below. “MUST“ This word or the adjective “REQUIRED“ means that the item is an absolute

37、 requirement of this Recommendation. “MUST NOT“ This phrase means that the item is an absolute prohibition of this Recommendation. “SHOULD“ This word or the adjective “RECOMMENDED“ means that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances to ignore this item, but the full implications sho

38、uld be understood and the case carefully weighed before choosing a different course. “SHOULD NOT“ This phrase means that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances when the listed behaviour is acceptable or even useful, but the full implications should be understood and the case caref

39、ully weighed before implementing any behaviour described with this label. “MAY“ This word or the adjective “OPTIONAL“ means that this item is truly optional. One vendor may choose to include the item because a particular marketplace requires it or because it enhances the product, for example; anothe

40、r vendor may omit the same item. 5 Introduction 5.1 Solution requirements There are three basic requirements to providing end-to-end QoS for IPCablecom sessions: 1) provide acceptable call set-up times, comparable to those in the PSTN; 2) provide acceptable voice quality by providing mechanisms to g

41、uarantee sufficiently small delay, jitter, and packet loss; 3) ensure high quality is maintained for the entire duration of the session (e.g. block new call attempts when their completion would compromise the quality of existing calls). In a packet-based network, the second requirement translates to

42、: provide mechanisms to recognize IPCablecom traffic and manage scheduling and buffer allocation in each switch and router so that delay and packet loss are bounded. 4 ITU-T Rec. J.174 (02/2002) The third requirement defines the need for admission control. Depending on the QoS mechanisms chosen, the

43、 challenge is to define a satisfactory method to block or admit calls or sessions based upon resource availability in the backbone. The following are the general criteria to evaluate solutions for end-to-end QoS for IPCablecom. The solution should meet the three requirements above. The solution is m

44、anageable and implementable. The solution is scaleable. QoS mechanisms for voice communication services must be able to grow to accommodate a large number of concurrent IPCablecom sessions without introducing undue implementation costs or complexity. The solution should recover gracefully when netwo

45、rk failures occur. For example, it is probably unavoidable that some calls are dropped when a network failure occurs, but this event should not negatively influence other calls in the network. These requirements, in particular the requirement for scalability, lead to a backbone architecture that is

46、based on the IETFs Differentiated Services (Diffserv) approach 2, 3. Diffserv was specifically designed as a scalable approach to delivering QoS in large backbones. Its application in the IPCablecom environment is described in the following clauses. 5.2 Requirements phasing This Recommendation prese

47、nts several approaches for providing QoS across a managed IPCablecom backbone network. Several of the approaches are complementary and based upon the resource management needs of the network operator, these approaches mechanisms may be combined to produce the desired control and management of IPCabl

48、ecom resources and sessions. The following table illustrates the feasible combinations of approaches described in clauses 7 through 10. Approach Required clauses Diffserv Clause 7 (Diffserv) Per-Flow RSVP Clauses 7, 8.1 Aggregate RSVP Clauses 7, 8.1, 8.2 BW Broker Clauses 7, 8.3 Diffserv support is

49、REQUIRED for all IPCablecom backbone networks. IPCablecom devices MUST at a minimum support the DiffServ requirements defined in clause 7. Per-flow RSVP requirements as defined in clauses 8 and 8.1 are OPTIONAL. However, if per-flow RSVP is supported, the requirements as defined in clauses 8 and 8.1 are REQUIRED. Clause 8.2 describes an approach for aggregation of RSVP. If RSVP aggregation is supported, all of 8.2 is REQUIRED. In addition, all of the per-flow RSVP requirements as defined in clauses 8 and 8.1 are REQUIRED
