ITU-T J.262 (10/2009) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the Un

7、ited 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 tariff questions and issuing Recomme

8、ndations 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 Recommendations on these topics. The ap

9、proval 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 Recommendation, the expression “Administr

10、ation“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g., interoperability or applicability) and complia

11、nce 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 compliance with the Recommendation is

12、required of any party.

18、rgency and disaster communications for authorized users play a vital role in the health, safety, and welfare of people in all countries. The common thread to facilitate emergency/disaster operations is the utility of assured capabilities for user-friendly preferential telecommunication services that

19、 may be realized by technical solutions and/or administrative policy. The IPCablecom infrastructure offers an important resource for assured emergency/disaster telecommunications. Emergency and disaster situations can impact telecommunication infrastructures. Typical impacts may include congestion o

20、verload and the need to re-deploy or extend communications capabilities beyond that covered by existing infrastructures. Even when telecommunication infrastructures are not damaged by these situations, demand for telecommunication resources soar during such events. Therefore, priority mechanisms are

21、 needed so that limited bandwidth resources can be allocated to authorized emergency workers during emergency and disaster situations. Generally, when preferential or prioritized treatment telecommunication capabilities are offered, users of the service will be authenticated and authorized. Whether

22、authentication and authorization are required or not, as well as implementation aspects, such as databases for personal identification numbers (PIN), are national decisions. However, without authentication and authorization, preferential treatment capabilities may be subject to abuse by non-authoriz

23、ed individuals. This Recommendation defines specifications stemming from the requirements of Recommendation ITU-T J.260 for mechanisms to provide authentication in IPCablecom2 networks in support of preferential telecommunication services that need or benefit from preferential treatment. Rec. ITU-T

24、J.262 (10/2009) 1 Recommendation ITU-T J.262 Specifications for authentication in preferential telecommunications over IPCablecom2 networks 1 Scope This Recommendation is one of a series of Recommendations to enable support for preferential telecommunication services over IPCablecom networks. These

25、specifications do not apply to ordinary emergency calls such as people calling the police, the fire department, ambulances, etc. Aspects of preferential telecommunications include provisions for authentication and priority (special handling). The objective of this Recommendation is to provide an ini

26、tial set of authentication specifications for preferential telecommunications within IPCablecom2 networks according to the framework described in ITU-T J.261. This Recommendation defines specifications for capabilities, which, when implemented should help support preferential treatment telecommunica

27、tion services. NOTE Pre-emption specifications and authorization specifications are outside the scope of this Recommendation and are considered to be national matters. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, cons

40、n of originating and terminating devices or VoIP user agent (UA) functionality; and form of identity presented by the preferential telecommunication service requester and manner by which the asserted identity is verified. Authentication entails receiving identification and identity verification/vali

41、dation information necessary, prior to authorizing completion of a preferential priority call or session. This capability Rec. ITU-T J.262 (10/2009) 3 should exist on the access network and it must also be propagated throughout all relevant network entities to provide, as much as possible, end-to-en

42、d preferential treatment. The manner in which end-to-end preferential treatment is provided is outside the scope of this Recommendation. The following four possibilities are to be considered for calls that require preferential treatment: 1) Originate from a UA at a location authorized for preferenti

43、al treatment services and terminate at a UA at any general location. 2) Originate from a UA at a location authorized for preferential treatment services and terminate at a UA at a location that is authorized for preferential treatment services. 3) Originate from a UA at a general location and termin

44、ate at a UA at a location authorized for preferential treatment services. 4) Originate from a UA at a general location and terminate at a UA at any general location. Authentication itself can be subdivided into two (or sometimes three) components: The first is receipt of identification information,

45、which identifies the preferential service requester. The second is receipt of identification verification information that allows the network to verify the accuracy of the requesters claimed identity when placing a preferential service call, so that the information can be propagated to all relevant

46、entities in the network, should the call be authorized. The third component, necessary in some situations, may require validating the identity against a database of authenticated identities. Another factor that can impact authentication is whether preferential treatment for access will be authorized

47、 on a: per call basis, or a subscription basis. Currently, identification and authentication are combined through the use of a personal identification number (PIN) presented by the caller after dialling an access number for enabling preferential treatment. This PIN may be validated against a PIN dat

48、abase to determine authorized services. PIN based authentication actually authenticates the requester, not the device being used when making the request, and thus allows preferential treatment requests to be initiated from any device. Also, this approach allows calls that require preferential treatm

49、ent to be originated from circuit switched telephone devices attached to private PBX systems. The PIN based authentication approach was designed specifically for per call requests. IPCablecom2-enabled infrastructures should accommodate this legacy approach along with providing other forms of identification and authentication for VoIP-based calls using the session initiation protocol (SIP). Appendix III of ITU-T J.360 and b-ITU-T J.366.8 include the three SIP authentication mechanisms specified in b-IETF RFC 3261: usage of HTTP authen
