The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on

4、 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 (Helsinki, March 1-12, 1993). ITU-T Recommendation 4.2140 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 11 (1993-1996) and was approved under the WTSC Resolution No. 1 proced

12、AAL) is defined to enhance the services provided by the ATM layer to support the functions required by the next higher layer. One particular type of AAL service is the signalling AAL (SAAL) which comprises AAL functions necessary to support a signalling. The structure of the SAAL is defined in Recom

13、menda- tion Q.2100 8. The SAAL consists of a Segmentation and Reassembly (SAR) function, and a Convergence Sublayer which is specified as two sublayers: a Common Part Convergence Sublayer (CPCS) and a Service Specific Convergence Sublayer (SSCS). The CPCS is defined in clause 6h.363 5 and is used as

14、 the underlying protocol for the service specific part for signalling. The SSCS is functionally divided into two parts: the Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP), which provides an assured data transfer service and the Service Specific Coordination Function (SSCF). The SSCOP is defin

15、ed in Recommendation Q.2110 9 and is suitable for use by various SSCFs. This Recommendation specifies the SSCF for signalling at the Network Node Interface (NNI). The SSCF at the NNI performs a coordination function between the service required by the signalling layer 3 user and the service provided

16、 by SSCOP. This Recommendation describes for the SSCF at the NNI the mapping of primitives from layer 3 to signals of the SSCOP and vice versa. Similarly, it specifies the exchange of signals between layer management and the SSCF at the NNI. Keywords ATM Asynchronous Transfer Mode AAL ATM Adaptation

19、rt signalling (SAAL) at the Network Node Interface (NNI) of the B-ISDN. This function is used to map the service of the Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP) of the AAL to the requirements of an SAAL user at the NNI as defined in Recommendation Q.704 6. These requirements cover the n

20、eeds for signalling between network nodes and networks. This function is called Service Specific Coordination Function (SSCF) for signalling at the NNI. This Recommendation covers the specification of the SSCF identified in the complete AAL structure for signalling applications at the NNI defined in

21、 Recommendation Q.2100 8, and describes the interactions with the level 3 protocol entity for network node signalling as defined in Recommendation Q.704 6, layer management defined in Recommendation 4.2144 7 and the Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol defined in Q.2110 191. This Recommenda

22、tion is applicable to equipment to be attached to a B-ISDN Network Node Interface when B-ISDN inter-nodal signalling is to be supported. Although this Recommendation refers to MTP-3 6 to identify user requirements, this SSCF may be utilized by other protocol entities which are able to rely on the SS

23、CF services specified in this Recommendation. 2 Normative References The following Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

33、ser to User Virtual Channel Identifier 4 General The Service Specific Coordination Function (SSCF) specified in this Recommendation in conjunction with the Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP) specified in Recommendation 4.21 10 9 define the Service Specific Convergence Sublayer (SS

34、CS). The purpose of the Service Specific Coordination Function is to enhance the services of SSCOP to meet the needs of the requirements of the NNI level 3 protocol. In addition the SSCF at the NNI provides communication with Layer Management for proper operation of signalling links. Figure VQ.2100

35、8 illustrates the structure of the SAAL at the NNI. It comprises the SSCF at the NNI (this Recommendation), the SSCOP 9, the SSCS Layer Management 7, and the AAL type 5 common part (clause 6 of 5). One user of this Recommendation is MTP level 3 6. This sub-layer (the SSCF at the NNI) has common inte

36、rfaces with the MTP level 3, the SSCS Layer Management, and the SSCOP. The definition of the SAAL takes into consideration the principles and terminology of Recommendations X.200 l and X.210 2 - the reference model and layer service conventions for Open Systems Interconnection (0%). The SAAL is a pr

37、otocol which operates at the data link layer of the OS1 architecture. NOTES 1 The ATM layer is currently defined in Recommendations 1.150 4 and 1.361 3. Level 3 is defined in Recommendation Q.704 6 for the NNI. 2 The term “level 3” is used to indicate the layer above the SAAL, the user of the SAAL s

38、ervices. 5 Services provided by the SAAL at the NNI The SSCF at the NNI is the uppermost sub-layer in the protocol stack for the SAAL at the NNI. By construction, it utilizes the services of the underlying SAAL sub-layers, in combination with its own functions, to provide an overall SAAL service to

39、the SAAL user, as described below. The SAAL at the NNI provides signalling link functions for the transfer of signalling messages over one individual signalling data link. The SAAL, functions provide a signalling link for reliable transfer of signalling messages between two signalling points. A sign

40、alling message delivered by the higher levels is transferred over the signalling link in variable length Protocol Data Units (PDUs). For proper operation of the signalling link, the PDU comprises transfer control information in addition to the information content of the signalling message. The servi

41、ces provided by the SAAL at the NNI include: a) Assured transfer of data The SAAL service provides for the transfer of SAAL service user-data on point-to-point ATM connections. Message delimitation and alignment, error detection, and error correction are part of the assured data transfer service of

42、this SAAL. The SAAL supports the transfer of octet aligned SDUs from a minimum of 5 octets up to a maximum of 4096 octets (i.e. maximum information size k in SD PDU). The Recommendation Q.2140 (OY95) 3 - ITU-T RECMN*Q.2140 75 4862571 Ob03435 173 m SAAL service generally relieves the user from dealin

43、g with loss, insertion, corruption, and misordering of data that may occur, however, in some cases where errors are not recovered in the ATM adaptation layer, SDUs may be duplicated or lost, b) Transparency of transferred information The SAAL service provides for the transparent transfer of SAAL ser

44、vice user-data. It does not restrict the content, format or coding of the information, nor interpret the structure or meaning of the information. c) Establishment and release of SAAL connections for assured transfer of data The SAAL service provides for a means to establish and release SAAL connecti

45、ons that operate in the assured mode. An initial alignment procedure may be applied during connection establishment to verify the signalling connection. Depending on the conditions, release of an SAAL connection may result in loss of SAAL user-data. d) SDU retrieval The SAAL service makes available

46、to the SAAL service user the means by which the sending SAAL service user may retrieve SDUs already delivered to the SAAL. e) Signalling link error monitoring Two signalling link error monitoring functions are provided: one that is employed while a signalling link is in service and which provides on

47、e of the criteria for taking the link out of service, and one that is employed when a link is in the proving state of the initial alignment procedure. fl Flow control The SAAL service provides, on an implementation dependent basis, indication of local congestion of the signalling link. 6 Functions o

48、f the SSCF at the NNI This clause is provided as an aid to understanding the functions of the SSCF at the NM. The state transition table (clause 12) is the definitive specification of this SSCF. If the following text is found to conflict with clause 12, clause 12 is to be followed. The definitions o

49、f the primitives and signals used in the following descriptions of the functions are described in clauses 7, 8, and 9. 6.1 Functions with no peer-to-peer messages 6.1.1 Mapping This SSCF maps primitives received from SAAL user to signals defined at the SSCOP upper layer boundary and maps signals received from the SSCOP to primitives implicitly defined at the MTP-3 lower layer boundary. AAL-MESSAGE-FOR-TRANSMISSION-request maps to AA-DATA-request. AA-DATA-indication maps to AAL-RECEIVED-MESSAGE-indication. 6.1.2 Local retrieve The local retrieve functi
