ITU-T Q.3304.1 (06/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunication

11、s, 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 Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications

12、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 approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid

13、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 “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunicati

14、on 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 compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandat

15、ory 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 required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws at

16、tention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or oth

17、ers outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represen

31、re: 3.1.1 client handle IETF RFC 2748: A term used to identify a unique request state for a single PEP per client-type. 3.1.2 policy information base (PIB) IETF RFC 3084: A term used to identify the type and purpose of unsolicited policy information that is “pushed“ from the PDP to the PEP for provi

32、sioning policy or sent to the PDP from the PEP as a notification. 3.1.3 transport physical entity (T-PE) ITU-T Q.3300 v2: A term used to refer to any device implementing the transport functions in the limited sense provided in clause 7.2.4 of ITU-T Y.2111 (i.e., those with which the RACF interacts).

33、 3.1.4 transport resource control physical entity (TRC-PE) ITU-T Q.3300 v2: A device that implements the transport resource control functional entity (TRC-FE) as defined in clause 7.2.3.3 of ITU-T Y.2111. 3.2 Terms defined in this Recommendation This Recommendation defines the following term: 3.2.1

34、session: The term “session“ used in this Recommendation refers to a common open policy service (COPS) signalling relationship established between the TRC-PE acting in the role of a COPS policy decision point (PDP) and the T-PE of acting in the role of a COPS policy enforcement point (PEP). 4 Abbrevi

38、one. 6 Resource Control Protocol No. 4 (rcp4) This variant of the Rc Stage 3 definition uses the COPS protocol, and in particular the COPS-PR procedures and data models defined in IETF RFC 3084. The COPS protocol is a request/response protocol intended to operate in the Client/Server mode. The T-PE

39、serves as the policy enforcement point (PEP) and Client and the TRC-PE as the policy decision point (PDP) and Server. COPS implementations supporting this Recommendation shall support the COPS client type 0x800d (ITUT-RcPIB) and shall support the policy information base (PIB) defined in Annex A. 7 P

40、rocedures 7.1 Establishment of the COPS session The T-PE shall initiate a TCP connection and open a COPS session with the TRC-PE as described in IETF RFC 2748. To establish an Rc session, the T-PE shall send a Client-Open message with the client identifier 0x800d (ITUT-RcPIB). The TRC-PE shall respo

41、nd with a Client-Accept message for that client type. State synchronization may proceed as described in sections 2.5 of IETF RFC 2748 and 3.1 of IETF RFC 3084. The client handle within the REQ message is of local significance to the T-PE. This Recommendation does not specify use of a ClientSI object

42、 within the Client-Accept message. 7.2 COPS session maintenance and termination The T-PE and TRC-PE shall use the Keep-Alive procedures defined in IETF RFC 2748 to ensure the continued availability of the COPS session. The session shall be terminated only by the loss of availability of one of the pe

43、ers through failure or management action. 7.3 Provision of policy by the TRC-PE The TRC-PE shall provide policy to the T-PE to indicate what information the TRC-PE wishes to acquire, using the contents of Named Decision objects within COPS-PR DEC messages. A DEC message must be returned in response

44、to a REQ message from the T-PE. The TRC-PE may also send further DEC messages as required to modify previously set policy or collect additional information on a one-time basis. Details are provided in clause A.2. 4 Rec. ITU-T Q.3304.1 (06/2012) 7.4 Generation of reports by the T-PE The T-PE shall pr

45、ovide information to the TRC-PE as determined by the policy installed by the DEC messages it receives. This information is provided within instances of the Named ClientSI object within COPS Report-State (RPT) messages. Details are given in clause A.2. 8 Application of the policy information base (PI

46、B) 8.1 Role of the PIB The policy information base (PIB) provides a means to interwork between different product vendors. The PIB defines a collection of provisioning classes (PRC) which can be used by the COPS to request or pass data instances (i.e., PRIs) for any given data structure (i.e., PRC).

47、Instances of the policy classes (i.e., PRIs) are each identified by a provisioning instance identifier (PRID) in the PIB. (A PIB is just like a virtual database of the PRC.) This Recommendation defines a PIB and inherits part of the data definitions from other PIBs, including PIBs in IETF RFC 3159,

48、IETF RFC 3318 and IETF RFC 4001. 8.2 Encoding of the PIB ASN.1 BER shall be used to encode the provisioning instance identifier (PRID) and policy data as described in section 2.2.1 of IETF RFC 3084. 8.3 Definition of the PIB See clauses A.1 and A.3 for details. 9 Reference to functional architecture

49、 9.1 Recommendation ITU-T Y.2111 The protocol defined in this Recommendation (i.e., rcp4) operates across the Rc reference point as defined in ITU-T Y.2111. The realization presented in this Recommendation accepts the considerations of scalability and domain independence that motivated the development of the functional architecture as defined in ITU-T Y.2111. As a result, it maps each functional entity of the functional architecture to a separate type of physical entity. Fi
