5、c. T.124 (01/2007) 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 ta

6、riff questions 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 Recom

7、mendations 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 Recomme

8、ndation, the expression “Administration“ 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. interoperabil

9、ity or applicability) and compliance 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 compl

10、iance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention 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

11、 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 received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required

12、 to implement this Recommendation.

30、Definitions This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.1 anonymous node: This node category describes a T.120 node that can participate in a conference while not being visible to any other nodes in the conference. The presence of Anonymous nodes is needed to facilitate large-scale T.120 conf

31、erences. 3.2 application protocol: Any standard or non-standard protocol specification which is designed to make use of T.120 services. 3.3 application protocol entity: The instantiation of an Application Protocol in a terminal or MCU. Application Protocol Entities are employed by User Applications,

32、 but are not themselves User Applications. An Application Protocol Entity communicates with GCC through the GCC Provider present at its local terminal or MCU via a GCCSAP. Only Application Protocol Entities communicate with GCC Providers; User Applications do not. Multiple Application Protocol Entit

33、ies based on the same Application Protocol may enroll at a single node. These may be either in the same or separate Application Protocol Sessions. A single Application Protocol Entity is assumed to communicate with the local GCC Provider via a single GCCSAP, and is also assumed to have a single MCS

34、User ID if it has enrolled in the active state. An Application Protocol Entity which has enrolled in the active state is part of a single Application Protocol Session as indicated by its Session ID (or lack of a Session ID which indicates that it is part of the Default Session). An Application Proto

35、col Entity which has enrolled in the inactive state is not considered part of any Application Protocol Session; however, an inactive Application Protocol Entity may make use of GCC services and information associated with such an Application Protocol Entity is included in the Application Roster. 3.4

36、 application protocol key: The Application Protocol Key identifies the type of Application Protocol for an Application Protocol Session. Multiple Application Protocol Sessions of the same type would be identified using the same Application Protocol Key (but different Session IDs). An Application Pro

37、tocol Key is either an ASN.1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER belonging to a Recommendation, Standard, or non-standard protocol, or, alternatively, it is a non-standard identifier using the encoding conventions of ITU-T H.221. 4 ITU-T Rec. T.124 (01/2007) 3.5 application protocol session: A set of Peer Application

38、 Protocol Entities. 3.6 application record: A set of information for a specific Application Protocol Entity at a specific node. This set includes the Application User ID, the Active/Inactive flag, as well as other parameters. 3.7 application registry: A central repository located at the Top GCC Prov

39、ider where an Application Protocol Entity can register its use of tokens, channels, and other parameters. Peer Application Protocol Entities can then access the registry to discover this registered information. 3.8 application roster: The set of all Application Records from all enrolled Application

40、Protocol Entities at all nodes in a conference, including the Application Capabilities List for each Application Protocol Session. 3.9 application user ID: MCS User ID assigned by MCS to an Application Protocol Entity. 3.10 conducted mode: Conducted Mode allows a Conductor node the ability to contro

41、l Application Protocol Entities at all nodes in a conference, and to restrict operation of Application Protocol Entities by other nodes. Conducted mode is established when a Conductor has been assigned to a conference. This is achieved when a node has successfully grabbed the conference Conductor To

42、ken. 3.11 conductor: The Conductor, if present, is a node in a conference which controls certain aspects of the conference (e.g., control of communication between Application Protocol Entities, control over conference participants, and conference termination). There shall be either zero or one Condu

43、ctors in a conference. A node becomes conductor by grabbing the conductor token, or by requesting or accepting conductorship from the current conductor. 3.12 conference: A number of nodes that are joined together and that are capable of exchanging audiographic and audiovisual information across vari

44、ous communication networks. 3.13 conference application roster: A database maintained by each GCC Provider consisting of a set of Application Records, one for every Application Protocol Entity at every node in the conference, as well as other information such as the Application Capabilities List for

45、 each Application Protocol Session. 3.14 conference mode: When a conference is created, a Conference Mode is specified, by the Convener, that defines which Categories of nodes will be allowed to participate in the conference. These Conference Modes include the following: conventional-only, which all

46、ows only Conventional nodes to join the conference; counted-controlled, which allows only Counted and Conventional nodes to join the conference; anonymous-controlled, which allows only Anonymous and Conventional nodes to join the conference; and unrestricted-mode, which allows all three node categor

47、ies to participate in the conference. The Node Controller must use the T.124 password to determine which nodes may join as Conventional when the Conference Mode is either counted-controlled or anonymous-controlled. 3.15 conference profile: A database maintained by each GCC Provider consisting of inf

48、ormation pertinent to a conference as a whole such as Conference Name, Password (if any), etc. 3.16 conference roster: A database maintained by each GCC Provider consisting of a list of nodes in a conference. For each node, this list includes the Node ID of the node, type of the node, the name of th

49、e node, and may include a list of participants at the node, as well as other optional information. 3.17 control GCC service access point: The communication interface between a GCC Provider and the Node Controller within a single node. 3.18 convener: Node that created a conference by issuing the GCC-Conference-Create request primitive. ITU-T Rec. T.124 (01/2007) 5 3.19 convener password: An identifying numeric string, as well as optional text string, which may be used when a conference is created to allow the convener of the co
