This Signalling Transport Converter on SCTP utilizes the services offered by the SCTP.

8、 The sublayer structure, the PDU structures of the signalling transport converter sublayer, and the mechanisms for the provision of the generic signalling transport service are defined in depth. The intent of this Recommendation is to provide a protocol specification that can be used in an IP enviro

9、nment for the provision of a signalling transport service. In particular, this protocol provides a Generic Signalling Transport Service that is used by AAL type 2 and Bearer Independent Call Control (BICC) signalling protocols Source ITU-T Recommendation Q.2150.3 (2002) was prepared by ITU-T Study G

11、12/2002) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff quest

12、ions 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 years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations

13、 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 necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, t

14、he expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claime

15、d Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not

16、 received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2003 All rights res

21、er on top of the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) specified in IETF RFC 2960 2 and RFC 3309 5 which specifies a reliable transport protocol operating over a connectionless packet network such as IP. This Recommendation covers the specification of the sublayer structure, the PDU structures

22、 of the signalling transport converter sublayer, and the procedures for the provision of the signalling transport service. When this Signalling Transport Converter on SCTP is applied for a signalling protocol entity, that entity is liberated from considering the peculiarities of the underlying signa

23、lling transport service. This is achieved by relying on a generic signalling transport service that is provided, for example, by the sublayer specified in this Recommendation. This Recommendation describes the interactions between the Signalling Transport Converter (STC) and the next higher layer, e

24、.g., the AAL type 2 6, 8 or BICC 7 signalling protocol entity, between the STC and the SCTP, and between the STC and layer management. 2 References 2.1 Normative references The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute p

36、FC 3309 5. The STC provides the service that is requested by the Generic Signalling Transport Service defined in ITU-T Rec. Q.2150.0 1, where the signalling protocol makes use of this service. The complete protocol stack is illustrated in Figure 5-1. ITU-T Rec. Q.2150.3 (12/2002) 3 This Recommendati

39、ansport Converter on SCTP 5.2 Services provided by the STC The STC provides for the transparent transfer of data, i.e., signalling application (STC user) data between peer STC users. The supporting communication resources to achieve this transfer stay invisible to the signalling application. In part

40、icular, the STC service provides for: a) Independence from the underlying transmission media The STC service relieves its users from all concerns of the manner in which the STC service is provided. Except for possible influences of the quality of service, the transfer of data over different underlyi

41、ng networks is, thus, invisible. b) Transparency of the information transferred The STC service provides for the transparent transfer of octet-aligned STC user data. It does not restrict the content, format, or coding of the information, nor is there ever a need to interpret its structure or meaning

42、. c) Management of associations The STC service provides for a permanent connection service. As the underlying service (SCTP) needs to have a signalling association established, the STC establishes and maintains this connection on behalf of its user; the user is informed about the availability/unava

43、ilability of the data transfer service. 4 ITU-T Rec. Q.2150.3 (12/2002) 5.3 Functions of the STC The STC performs the following functions: a) Association establishment and maintenance This function provides for the establishment and maintenance of an SCTP signalling association. The STC will attempt

44、 to reestablish a new SCTP association on behalf of its user in the event of loss of SCTP connectivity. b) Service availability reporting to the STC user This function reports the availability or unavailability of an SCTP service to the STC user and also to Layer Management. c) Maximum length indica

45、tion to the STC user This function indicates to the STC user the maximum length of the PDU that the STC can transfer; indicated at creation of the STC entity. d) Call Instance Code (CIC) control indication to the STC user This function indicates to the STC user, at creation of the STC entity, whethe

46、r it serves as the controlling node of the call association. In addition, the following SCTP services are used: a) Acknowledged error-free non-duplicated transfer of user data. b) Sequenced delivery of user messages within single streams. Also, the following SCTP services may be used: a) Data fragme

47、ntation to conform to discovered path MTU size. b) Sequenced delivery of user messages within multiple streams. c) Bundling of multiple user messages into a single SCTP packet. d) Network-level fault tolerance through supporting of multi-homing at either or both ends of an association. e) Appropriat
